2010, 1ST stupid statement of the year
We are not even 72 hours into the new year and this current administration has released stupidity.
The real credit goes to White House aide John Brennan, who said U.S. intelligence agencies did not miss a "smoking gun". This in reference to the Christmas day plot to blow up a CIVILIAN AIRLINER IN DETROIT.
The facts, remember no smoking gun.
1) The Bomber's father reported to CIA officials his son had left a note and is believed to be getting ready to attempt jihad.
2) Britain revokes the bombers visa
3) The bomber is documented in Yemen with known Al Quieda extremists (political term for murdering Islamic terrorist)
4) Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab AKA the Nigerian bomber,attempted and successfully boarded a plane with no passport or documentation.
5) Purchase of a one way ticket from part of the world known to hate America, with cash.
( ANY ALARM BELLS RINGING YET? )
OK so there is no smoking gun YET. However none of these warning bells were listened to. So what does our entrusted government do. After Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab sets fire to his pants. This which an alert Dutchman puts out. He is arrested, mirandised and will stand trial as an average criminal. Not as a TERRORIST, or an enemy combatant. A combatant soldier in a war against the west and Christianity.
The stupidity of all this is the choice of words used by John Brennan. For him to imply that there was no smoking gun is absurd. As more and more information comes forth from different intelligence agencies, including the C.I.A., clearly shows a gun in hand. It had not been fired until the plane was over North America, the United States specifically. Is a clear sign that those who are in charge are taking a pre 9/11 attitude in defending this country. That they do not take their oaths seriously.
2010 does not look to bring any real change for the better to this country but there is hope. Hope that in November we elect responsible Representatives with a little common sense.
