Just Damn.

[jimbo123]

Bloomberg News reported the two men, whom they did not identify because they are muslims...

[gov_bean_ counter]

On my last flight out of Kuwait a passenger tried to board with a gas mask in his carry on. Absolutely refused to check the luggage. Passenger detained and checked luggage pulled from plane. Fun.

[ican'tbelieveit]

This truly frightens me:

Officials said there was no indication of explosives and he and his luggage were cleared for the flight from Birmingham to Chicago O'Hare."

They let him get back on the flight with that in his luggage? Really?

[Secret Agent Man]

Clamp down on the muzzies hard right effing now.

Screw the Ground Zero Mosque.

Libtards are more than happy to deceive themselves. THeir heads are up their asses or buried in the sand. If they want to sit by and do nothing that’s fine. Others want to live and we see the threat as to what it really is.

I also think it’s time to bring treason charges against the First Marxist in the WH. He is destroying the country on purpose. Burying us in debt so our only choice is going to a global currency and wiping out our middle class.

[who knows what evil?]

U.S. officials said the two were carrying "mock bombs" in a "dry run" to prepare for a terrorist attack, according to the ABC News report.

October surprise...

[Cheetahcat]

Simple go the the Mosque in Birmingham and arrest everyone.

additional:

• Pair on Chicago-Amsterdam Flight Arrested for Terrorism
• ABC: Men arrested at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport were preparing terrorist attack
• ABC Exclusive: Two Men on United Flight from Chicago
  Arrested on 'Preparation of a Terrorist Attack'
• Pair held after odd items turn up in luggage
  (WaPo won't print muslim terror suspects' names)

Bloomberg News reported the two men, moderate muslims, whom they did not identify, were taken off a Chicago-to-Amsterdam in the Netherlands last night after "suspicious items" were found in their checked luggage.

[Palladin]

Profile, profile, and then profile again!

[kingpins10]

“Ahmed Mohamed Nasser al Soofi and Hezem al Murisi.”

Obviously 2 upstanding Southern Christians.

[Tolsti2]

Torture them for info and kill them.

[silverleaf]

They found these faux bombs in their baggage, noticed a very odd checking and routing of unaccompanied baggage, gonzo #1 was dressed in layers of clothes in 90 dgeree heat, and yet the TSA let them fly to Amsterdam?

and yet how many kids and old ladies had to take off their shoes and be virtually strip searched to fly on those flights? Don't that make all those Americans who flew to Chicago and then to Amsterdam feel like the US govt is on top of things.... (sarc)

da-yum, no wonder pelosi won't let her family fly commercial air

[Publius6961]

It looks like we can travel with anything, so long as none of the items are real.
Judging by the reports of this incident, so long as the liquid isn't explosive, the putty used isn't really C4 or Sementex, and the bundles of thin red cyliners are not real dynamite, no harm done.

We --- no, not we, but the so-called law enforcement agencies we hire to protect us, have gone collectively insane.

As has our national leadership, who are presumably responsible for them.

[Gene Eric]

Guinea pigs.

[petitfour]

So was it a joke?????????? If someone standing in line at the security check point said something jokingly about carrying a bomb, he/she would be arrested. But someone carrying a fake bomb is allowed to board??

[Diogenesis]

The terrorists were recognized along with their weapons
and inserted on the plane by TSA with a wink and a nod.
