WASHINGTON — Two packages containing explosives, shipped from Yemen and addressed to synagogues in Chicago, were intercepted in Britain and Dubai, setting off a broad terrorism scare on Friday that included the scrambling of fighter jets to accompany a passenger flight as it landed safely in New York.

Boom, those were packages. They weren't dressed like Muslims. They were dressed like UPS.

Well it is Halloween.

Michael - I was not suggesting that any one religious groups was involved. Why even introduce the "M" word into the mix. The Times doesn't .

Well, if it was shipped from Yemen, I'm sure it was sent by those pesky Mormons.

I was thinking more along the lines of those pesky Mongolians.

 

[YankeeFan]

Do we know how they were dressed when they shipped the packages?

 

[YankeeFan]

Oh, and btw, I actually doubt that any Synagogue in Chicago would open an unexpected package with a Yemeni return address/postmark.

I doubt I would open a package from Yemen.

I'm watching MSNBC now. They're discussing how they planned to detonate the bombs. It doesn't look like they were booby traps like the Unibombers devices.

They are saying that it was either a timer or a cell phone that would have detonated them.

So, by tracking them on FedEx or UPS's websites, you may have been able to kill people even if they did not open them.

You could also figure out which packages shipped on cargo planes & which ones shipped on passenger flights. (If it goes to Memphis or Louisville, it's not a passenger plane.)

With this info, you could set a timer to bring down a passenger plane on a future attempt.

What can brown (people) do for you?

What can brown do to you?

At this point don't people know that Al Queda (or just "Queda" in NYT style) is a Muslim terrorist organization? Or do you think they should still spell it out for people?

This is why you guys think that Rush Limbaugh is making fun of his own audience, when he's actually making fun of you.

Boom is ****ing with you. It bothered you and caused you to lash out. And now, we get to laugh at your response.

Oh, and Boom is right. The Times article he linked to does not mention the word Muslim or Islam once.

I guess we shouldn't speculate about the motivations of whoever did this.

I know what he is doing.

I am putting it clearly for people who might not.

Boom is a liar.

So, you're concerned that the rest of the liberals on the board might not be as smart as you and won't be able to decipher Boom's post?

Um, OK.

It mentioned Al Queda. It is not common knowledge that Al Queda is a Muslim terrorist organization? Does that still need to be spelled out? I'd be curious to see how they handled stories about the IRA in that era, for comparison's sake.

 

[TrooperBari]

So, are we discussing Boom or the explosives?

The title of the thread is nonsensical. There is no issue here with airline passengers dressed as muslims. That is what Juan Williams was worried about, so you are in fact referencing muslims.

Also, I kinda feel sorry for people who think they are way more clever than they really are.

As many of the threads started by the bigot boom, this belongs on the I Hate Muslims board.
