FORT WORTH -

SNIPPET: "Officers took a man and a woman into custody.

WFAA has learned that the woman is Kimberly Homsi; she also goes by the name Asma Al- Homsi.

Al-Homsi has been under surveillance and was on the government's no-fly list since being involved in a road rage incident back in December, 2005. She held up an inert grenade and threatened another driver.

Garland's bomb squad later found ammunition in her car.

In 2007, the FBI and the Dallas Police Department called her a possible danger. Police say Al-Homsi has explosives and sniper training. In an exclusive interview with WFAA in 2007, she told us she disagreed with the U.S. government's Middle East policy."

“This lady is well known to authorities. Why she isn’t dead, deported, dead, in jail, or dead, is beyond me.”

“Al-Homsi, a Syrian with dual citizenship,”

_______

PC is going to kill us all! And ‘dual citizenship’....right....get these people out of here who have no allegiance to this country.

The reason I am smiling Army Chief of Staff General George William Casey Jr., 36th Chief of Staff of the United States Army, is because you have done your job so well...so very well. The Ummah praises Allah!

To: Cindy; All
The picture I just saw of her (at a source which doesn't allow FR links), showed her with a shaved head>

They shave their heads before acting out SJS ---Sudden Jihad Syndrome---

A wanna-be, but a potentially dangerous one. Inept, but still murderous in heart & intent.

MAKE HER *TALK*!!!!

...or just put a few canaries in with her, and some other fellow SJS travelers, like the Israeli's do it...and listen in to the chatter & bragging.

She would be a big-time bragger, I'd bet. Just as soon as she felt like she was in sympathetic company ...and such company had already found out a snitch or two, and had found and disabled a couple of hidden microphones.

let 'em find one or two, but like a late-night commercial, "but waiT! there's more!" hehheh...

“Couple arrested after authorities find incendiary device in vehicle following a police pursuit”
05:00 PM CST on Sunday, February 14, 2010

By TANYA EISERER / The Dallas Morning News

SNIPPET: “Al-Homsi, 45, and Yasinul Alan Ansari, 18, both remain in the Arlington city jail. Bail has been set at $210,000 for Al-Homsi and $100,000 for Ansari.

ATF Dallas spokesman Thomas Crowley said Sunday that officials plan to file a complaint on the pair in federal court in Fort Worth on Tuesday. “It’s an ongoing federal investigation,” he said. “We can’t put out any description [of the device] until after the complaint is filed.””

SNIPPET: “Al-Homsi also faces one count of evading arrest, two counts of making a terroristic threat and one count of possessing a prohibited weapon. Ansari faces one count of possessing a prohibited weapon.”

OPINION:

I don’t believe this is a case of sudden jihad syndrome.

Al-Homisi has an interesting history and I believe that the history is reflected in the amount of the bail.

No, you don't understand.

She's had multiple incidents of SJS. Even shaving her head beforehand, was simply a preparation, just in case she had another bout with it.

Now do you get it?

“2 held in pipe-bomb case ordered to remain in custody without bail”
Posted Tuesday, Feb. 16, 2010

BY NATHANIEL JONES

FORT WORTH — A federal magistrate on Tuesday ordered two people to remain in custody without bail as authorities continue to investigate an incident that brought the bomb squad to east Fort Worth on Saturday.

SNIPPET: “Al-Homsi, the driver, told officers that there were three pipe bombs in a bag in the backseat area, according to a criminal complaint signed by a special agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.”

SNIPPET: “The next day, during an interview with investigators, Al-Homsi acknowledged making three pipe bombs in the bedroom of her Arlington apartment in the 2500 block of Ruger Drive, according to the complaint. She told investigators that the pipe bombs contained road flares, Pyrodex powder (a propellant used for muzzle loaders) and match heads.”

SNIPPET: “An inmate who waited in a cell with Ansari before the hearing said Ansari told him that he was the best friend of Al-Homsi’s son...”

“Official: Woman overstated power of alleged pipe bombs”

BY NATHANIEL JONES
njones@star-telegram.com

SNIPPET: “The Arlington woman arrested earlier this month after police found suspected pipe bombs in her pickup truck exaggerated the capabilities of the explosive devices, a Fort Worth bomb squad official said Wednesday.”

SNIPPET: “On Tuesday, Tatum briefed the City Council on the Feb. 13 incident that closed southeast Loop 820 for about eight hours. In his presentation, Tatum showed pictures of the pipe bombs and dummy detonating device.

The pictures showed black painted PVC pipes that were filled with black powder and had match heads attached to them.

Tatum said bomb squad members were unable to determine Al-Homsi’s intentions, although the NBA’s All-Star Game was in Arlington that weekend.”

(DALLAS MORNING NEWS)

“Two Muslims who shut down Fort Worth highway in February plead guilty to possession of homemade pipe bombs”

SNIPPET: “Kimberly Al-Homsi and Yasinul Ansari, her 18-year-old accomplice, both entered pleas before U.S. District Judge John McBryde in Fort Worth. They admitted to one count each of possession of an unregistered firearm, in this case homemade pipe bombs found in the truck in February.

They could each receive up to 10 years and a $250,000 fine when sentenced Sept. 24.”
