Retired Cop alerts Police to Possible Ft. Hood attack

[TheTman]

Texas police say a newly-arrested Muslim American Army private has admitted planning to attack fellow troops at the famous Fort Hood Army base in Killeen.
Following a tip from a suspicious retired policeman now working at a local gun shop, Killeen police arrested Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo Wednesday during a traffic stop.http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/.a/6a00d8341c630a53ef014e8a31495b970d-250wi (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/.a/6a00d8341c630a53ef014e8a31495b970d-popup)
He'll likely face federal charges after FBI agents found a large amount of bomb-making materials in his hotel room not far from the base.
The 21-year-old had gone AWOL from Fort Campbell, Kentucky after refusing deployment to Afghanistan on religious grounds and then being charged with possession of child pornography during his discharge process.
Kileen is the site of Fort Hood, scene of the 2009 massacre of 13 military personnel. Another American Muslim soldier, Army Maj. Nidal Hasan, has been charged with those killings. He faces the death penalty if found guilty in a trial set to begin in early 2012.
"Thanks to quick action by a Texas gun dealer in alerting local police to a suspicious character," Rep. John Carter said today, (http://www.cnn.com/2011/CRIME/07/28/fort.hood.arrest/) "and a prompt and vigorous response by the Killeen Police Department, we may well have averted a repeat of the tragic 2009 radical Islamic terror attack on our nation's largest military installation."
Abdo appeared in a local gunshop Tuesday afternoon, according to Greg Ebert, a retired police officer now working there. Ebert said Abdo purchased shotgun shells, a magazine and six one-pound canisters of gunpowder.
But he then asked Ebert numerous questions indicating little knowledge of the gunpowder.
"That's a red flag for me," Ebert said. "He should know" if he's buying that much. Ebert checked with his boss and then alerted police.
In the hotel room police say they also found uniforms with Fort Hood patches, battery-powered clocks and shrapnel.

I never have found out what the big deal about virgins was anyway.I suppose virgins are great if you aren`t that good in the sack because they don`t know any better.I`d much rather have a woman who knew what she was doing.I`ve had three virgins and as far as I`m concerned, all I did was blaze a trail for others to follow.Too much work and hassel.

P.S. If he`s guilty, I hope he`s raped in prison.

I think I see what the attraction of that religion is: you can be just as murderously wicked as you want to be, and it's OK with Allah. In fact, he'll reward you! The only people from whom righteous behavior is required is WOMEN!

Is nagging righteous? Maybe something could be learned from this.

Lets see, bullet proof vest, check, flak jacket, check, helmet, check, clean out shed to make habitable, check, flame retardent, check.

Thank God for the retired police officer, there is nothing better than good instincts and common sense.

If i hear islam is a peaceful religion one more time I'm going to puke. Their goal is world domination and sharia law for all. The koran says that is there mission, to convert or kill all us infidels. What's really a kicker is these nice young american girls falling for these rich arabs and marrying them, not knowing what's in store for them. They are well on their way to controlling Europe. France already has muslim enclaves where they openly practice sharia law, and the police, fire, and ambulances will not enter these zones. They are outbreeding the native Europeans at a rate of about 6 children for every 1 native European born. In 50 years they will be the majority in the countries that have accepted them, England, France, Germany, Holland, and not sure what others. We're accepting them with open arms too. They say you can hear muslim prayer calls in many places in cities like Detroit already. My brother's wife is from England, and her home town has been taken over by muslims, mostly Pakistani's, very few English are left. London is full of muslims. My brother said about everywhere they went, he saw bunches of them on his last visit 2 years ago. He's going again in September, I'll be anxious to hear how bad it's got in the last two years. It's too late for Europe, we'd better start watching what's going on in our own USA.
