1. What did the terrorist at the Christmas tree lighting celebration in Portland shout before trying to detonate his car bomb? No, not "Merry Christmas!" Try again.
Correct.
2. What was his name?
That was a bit of a trick question, but you're half right:
At least three people have emailed me to point out an interesting aspect of this incident: it has the first known Mohammed Coefficient of over 100%. The alleged would-be Portland Christmas Tree Bomber is a 19-year-old Somali-American named Mohamed Osman Mohamud, which gives this incident a Mohammed Coefficient of 200%. [. . .]And the FBI has had to use the word "jihad" four times in its press release. That part is unusual. Read the rest.
The culturally enriched teenage terrorist intended to make a “spectacular show”, and didn’t mind if he killed children and babies. He thought his cell phone would set off the bomb, but didn’t realize that he had bought his bogus “explosives” from FBI operatives. This was a smoothly-executed sting, and the Portland FBI office is to be commended for its deft handling of the case.
Worst part, perhaps, quoted at link above, from OregonLive.com:
The FBI operatives cautioned Mohamud several times about the seriousness of his plan, noting that there would be many people, including children, at the event, and that Mohamud could abandon his plans at any time with no shame."He must stop Christmas from coming, but how?"
“You know there’s going to be a lot of children there?” an FBI operative asked Mohamud. “You know there are gonna be a lot of children there?”
Mohamud allegedly responded he was looking for a “huge mass that will … be attacked in their own element with their families celebrating the holidays.”

Has Obama told us not to rush to judgment yet?
ReplyDeleteI hope the FBI guys who performed the life saving sting operation don't find themselves in trouble with the regime, but I would not be surprised if they ended up getting sued by the DoJ or something. At the very least, I expect the FBI to be in trouble for using the word "jihad", that word is not permitted under imam Hussein.
I wish they would not have divulged the way this sting operation went down...now they will have to think up new ways to catch the criminals for the jihadis won't fall for the same trick twice...
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile when it comes to the punishment phase for this crime this Somali will get nothing more than a slap on the wrists as long as the current regime is at the Justice Department...like Obama says, "Don't rush to judgement!"
This is very similar to a would be terrorist in Dallas, Texas. Hosam Smadi was arreseted 9/24/09 in a failed attempt at blowing up a car bomb near a 60-story skyscraper in downtown Dallas. The FBI had been working undercover and provided the fake bomb materials. He is a Muslim from Jordan and was in the country illegally. He pled guilty and was sentenced to 24 years in prison as part of a plea bargain. Prior to the sentencing earlier this fall, there was talk of his being schizoprhenic. He has just recently filed an appeal...
ReplyDeleteThe only way jihad attacks can be stopped is to stop or greatly reduce muslim immigration. Period.
ReplyDeleteJihad is an integral part of Islam, always has been, always will be.
It's the immigration, stoopid.
Glenn Greenwald is claiming that the FBI "enticed" Mohamud to blow up the tree lighting ceremony and even if they didn't it doesn't matter because we provoked the attack. With friends like Glenn who needs Islamic nutcase enemies?
ReplyDeleteSo it was not a little white boy that was arrested?
