'Alleged' Christmas Day Terrorist is Charged

I added the quotes around alleged just for effect. Seriously, I believe it's safe to say this is the actual terrorist. But it's become so ingrained with the media to pretend to be objective with these acts of terror we're just supposed to play make believe. Search for alleged terrorist and you'll see what I mean. More here on the alleged terrorist.

The Justice Department charged the alleged Christmas Day terrorist with attempting to destroy an airplane.

The Justice Department said 23-year-old Nigerian Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab had a device containing a high explosive attached to his body. The government said that as the flight neared Detroit Metropolitan Airport on Friday, Abdulmutallab set off the device, but it sparked a fire instead of an explosion.

According to an affidavit filed in federal court in Detroit, a preliminary analysis of the device shows it contained PETN, also known as pentaerythritol.

The same substance used by "shoe bomber" Richard Reid.

If at first they don't succeed, they'll keep trying. See World Trade Center, for example. We'd rather twist ourselves into knots playing nice nice with these maniacs, hoping some day they'll love us. You know, Hopenchange and all that yummy stuff.

How's that working out?
