LUBBOCK, Texas - A Saudi Arabian student attending South Plains College purchased chemicals to build a bomb and was researching targets in the United States – including former President George W. Bush’s Dallas home – before his arrest Wednesday by federal authorities, according to a statement issued by the U.S. District Attorney’s office Thursday morning.

Khalid Ali-M Aldawsari, 20, was arrested late Wednesday by FBI agents on a federal charge of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction. He was set to appear Friday morning in federal court in Lubbock.

Aldawsari received a visa to study in the United States in 2008 and was described as a transfer student for the spring 2011 semester of the community college in Levelland, according to the statement. He had attended the college for six weeks, according to a statement from South Plains.

Another of Obama’s kin-folks wanting to do harm to Americans. As if Obama actually needs these people’s help. He is doing a fine job of destruction all by himself, with the help of his socialist buddies around the country and his beloved UNIONS!!! Man, do I HATE unions!!!

Why do we let muslims in this Country with Student Visa’s? They hate technology, learning, anything modern. The only thing we are doingis opening ourselves up for attacks. Give them all the boot now.
Same for the Chinese.

It’s pathetic that this terrorist felt that an ex-president was more dangerous to him and like-minded individuals than the sitting POTUS.

From another article detailing entries in his diary:

One entry describes how he sought and obtained a particular scholarship because it allowed him to come directly to the U.S. and helped him financially, which he said, "will help tremendously in providing me with the support I need for Jihad." The entry continues, "And now, after mastering the English language, learning how to build explosives and continuous planning to target the infidel Americans, it is time for Jihad."

Little cash-starved colleges such as this one would let Bin Laden enroll if he had the funds, and Saudi Arabia sees to it that they have the funds. These small struggling schools are where the FBI should be looking for terrorists.

That’s not possible, it can’t be a Saudi.

Saudis are our friends, always have been, always will be. Aren’t they the friendly folks that foot the bill for these sinister mosques that pollute and deface the American landscape?

Scholarship?

Normal Americans are paying full tuition while wild-eyed jihadis come here and get a free ride!

200 years from now, the history books will tell the story of how the greatest country in the world brought about its own downfall.

(I won’t be able to read the history books because they’ll be written in arabic.)
