They tried to blow us up.....again.

Feds assess terror watchlists after airline attack - Yahoo! News

A Nigerian tried to blow up an international flight to Detroit. Luckily his bomb was poorly made, like everything else African. Napolitano says that even though a suspected terrorist on a watchlist was allowed to board a plane to the US, with a bomb, ".....the system worked." The next day (after Chairman MaObama ripped her ass), she said she was taken out of context. The context is terrorist with a bomb which activated on a plane, and she thinks it's all hunkey dorey. That is the context.

Also note the lack of the words "Christmas" or "Muslim" in the story. Once again the media plays ball with the administration's policy of "we're not at war with Muslims". December 25th is Christmas. CHRIST-MASS. If you live in Nigeria and try to blow yourself up on an american plane on the high Christian/Capitolist holiday of the US, you are a Muslim. But no, no signifigance there.

I'm with ya Wads. I'll admit that I haven't read into all the specifics, so I can't have a detailed discussion yet. I'll browse through the links and try to post up some other things to ponder.

For now I agree that the whole religion thing is a little more obvious then they are saying. But then again, that's why I hate the media and why I normally can't stand politics.

But hey... at least I'm trying to keep your thread alive :) Even if I can't talk as intricately as Ctrl.

It's ok Obama took responsibility for failing us on security measures. The Mesiah says alls well we can sleep again. I say nice set-up for him to go ahead and grab some more of our freedoms. Let's see what happens next shall we?

should we also mention that obama and his family are die-hard muslims? they might not be radicals, like these folks that HATE us, but none-the-less muslims. does that create a favoritism? i dont know for sure, but it does indeed worry me.

[Sir Wadsalot]

I don't believe they're die hard Muslims. Obama's got an Islamic background, yes, but practicing Muslims? No. There is no creditable evidence of that anywhere.

Radicals? Yes, definately. Nation of Islam friendly, radical pro-black ideoligy church attending Socialists? Definately. Practicing Muslims? No.

Does that background affect his choices and thought processes? Definately. But if he's currently a practicing Muslim it's well hidden, and I friggin' HATE the guy as much as anyone.

And to be clear, by Muslim I mean Islamist radicals.

I'm with Wads on this, in fact I like to stay away from anything that is merely "speculated" about Obama. There is enough concrete stuff out there to terrify anyone in their right mind. The speculative stuff takes away credibilty and makes you look right wing wacko. If you stick to hard evidence and documentable stuff only you present a much more compelling arguement... not that, that matters when you are arguing against the illogical.
