Rep. Peter King has named the suspected terrorist who attempted to blow up an Amsterdam to Detroit flight today as "Abdul Mudallad.", according to the AP in an article timestamped 7:04 p.m. EST.
King was just on live with CNN talking about the failed terrorist attack, but the CNN anchor cut King off when he started to say the suspect's name and would not allow King to name him. The anchor said CNN was not able to confirm the name.
King is the Ranking Member on the House Homeland Security Committee.
Citing federal officials, MSNBC is also naming the suspect, but uses a more complete version: "Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab".
MSNBC also reports Abdul Mutallab left Lagos, Nigeria yesterday and boarded flight 253 in Amsterdam today.
Remind me again, please. We need these people in our country why?

Amish pacifists are mighty restless lately.
Now the state-run media doesn’t wait for law enforcement to say “Nothing to see here folks. Move along.” I guess that’s the advantage of state-run media—no need to interview the police because both work off the same script.
"White House official says this was attempted act of terrorism".
But, don't call the Ft. Hood act of terrorism an "act of terrorism". Apparently, the White House feels strongly, both ways! /s
Are you sure that’s the name? Coulda’ sworn CNN reported his name was “Joshua”, an Amish farmer from Pennsylvania who apparently worked for George Bush by way of Halliburton..
Thanks for posting. BTTT!
You talking about CNN and MSNBC? Heeeee Heeeeee!

“Amish pacifists...”
I think Quakers are to blame.
Just another disaffected yout that must have had his car keyed.
He’s Jewish?

Merry Christmas!
That’s a fine Mennonite name.

Islam is a Religion of Peace......... 0bama wants them here.
It’s a funny sounding name.
I was shocked by the CNN anchor cutting off Representative King in such a forceful manner.
Rep King sits on the committee for airline security and is keenly involved in this, but I guess CNN does not consider him a reliable source........that means if it does not come from a liberal, CNN does not report it.
