With that video, I would arrest every Falafel vendor on the East Coast.

Looking at the video, it seems like it was pixelated. I’ve never seen such a pixelated video. Most cameras are better quality. Is that a super zoom? That would make it pixelated..
If that is the best quality of a security cam, it would be of no use.

Surveillance may appear what appears to be a white man but easily be what appears to be a light skinned Arab. How nice that the MSM jumps to convenient conclusions.

Of course, it could easily be a white hippie friend of William Ayers, you know, Barack Obama's buddy.

You know what would be really cool?

If one of these made-for-TV terrorism geniuses would kindly explain what caused the “smoke” and “gunpowder smell” described as issuing forth from the SUV by the street vendor and the cop who raised the alarm.

All we’ve heard so far is how the fertilizer was non-explosive, the propane tanks were sealed and the bomb was, overall, a dud (which of course means it was the work of a right-wing moron, in MSM-logic) — but, uh, what about the smoke and the smell that the media’s been headlining?

If something was cooking in the back of the SUV, wouldn’t something be eventually igniting?

So, it couldn’t be a muslim, because Islam is a race, doncha know. But white guys, especially older ones, are the opposition to the Regime!

Part of the reason why the critics of profiling say it's not foolproof is that Islam cuts across racial lines. I think profiling is a must against Islamic terrorism, but it obvious doesn't catch them all.

First of all, there are plenty of scumbags in this world who are willing to do ANYTHING for money, including kill innocent civilians with an IED here on American soil.

Second of all, just because a suspect may be Caucasian, it does not necessarily mean that person is NOT a Muslim terrorist, such as the recent case of Colleen LaRose:

Jihad Jane: U.S. Housewife Indicted for Terrorism
Wed, March 10, 2010

WASHINGTON — Federal agents say an American middle-aged white woman from Pennsylvania is the new face of terror.

Colleen LaRose, dubbed “Jihad Jane,” has been accused of plotting with Islamic terrorists overseas.

Not Your Typical Terrorist

LaRose is not your typical looking jihadist — a blonde, green eyed housewife from suburban Philadelphia. It has left her neighbors are scratching their heads ...

It’s ALWAYS a white guy in his 40’s until they catch the Muslim and his illegal alien sidekick.

I thought the police had a name. They know who owns the vehicle and are trying to find him. Why don’t they publish the vehicle owner’s name and DMV/passport photo so the public can help run him down? The video is virtually useless.

Dumb question, but the video I saw at the link starts with the man standing on the sidewalk. Have they released the full video showing this man getting out of the SUV? If not, what could possibly be their reasoning for not doing so?

From what I hear the device was rather crude in construction and was rigged with a long standard rudimentary fuse that was lit.

This could account for the smoke and gunpowder smell.
