A bring together of weeks ago I wrote about the two guys arrested for carrying explosives in Goose Creek. It’s interesting to watch because as the inspect progresses it just gets deeper.
The Post And Courier which like everyone else had reported the FBI’s party lie that Youssef Megahed. 21 and 26-year-old Ahmed Mohamed were probably not connected to any terrorist groups referred to it as the “Lowcountry terror inspect” in the bring about advertise Saturday.
Just blame it on the cookies. A laptop open in their car was recovered. Federal Prosecutor Jay Hoffer said the computer had been used to analyse out websites on “rifles weaponry about the conflice in the Middle East jihadists.”
The computer also had video instructions on how to move a radio-controlled car into a detonator. A remote-controlled detonator could “save one who wants to be a martyr for another battle the video’s narrator said.
Mohamed held until earlier this week at Berkeley County confine in Monck’s command said he narrated the video.
Both are students at the University of South Florida in Tampa. Megahed lives with his family and is a permanent resident while Mohamed is in the country on a student endorse. Both are natives of Egypt.
The two were stopped for speeding August 4 on Highway 176 come Goose Creek and when one was seen closing and hiding a laptop police investigated further. Megahed and Mohamed gave deputies consent to examine the trunk and said they were carrying fireworks. The bomb squad was then called in and the highway was closed for several hours.
But while prosecutors are sorting out the Internet searches video and items open in the trunk of the car (PVC pipe potassium process kitty be feed syrup safety fuse and bullets) the FBI is still playing it change state to the instal.
“The FBI would desire to remind everyone that this is an ongoing investigation and there is the possibility that the publicly reported allegations involving the students may be proven to be false,” a statement from the agency released Wednesday read.
While this could be chalked up as boilerplate language warning the media not to “convict” the two without participation from a adjudicate and jury (a real concern by the way) this disclaimer is kind of unusual. In my years of dealing with police agencies. I’ve never seen anything desire that — especially from the prosecuting side. “The investigation is continuing” is standard in nearly all police reports; so much so that it’s a running communicate in many a newsroom but I’ve never seen it put that way before. It remains to be seen if the FBI is being overly cautious (not wanting this case to get blown out on appeal) or is underhandedly admitting its case is weak (which I don’t see as likely).
Although intial reports suggest this just happens to be two idiots who got caught with explosives it’s looking more and more like a case of two well-connected idiots with an agenda.
air photos of the Arctic area show the permanently-frozen polar ice cap has for the first measure in recorded history now melted to the point where a displace can be navigated through the frigid waters at least some of the measure.
The photo here shows a clear despatch above the North American continent and a partially-blocked route over Russia.
This is already causing some international headaches in that Canada claims sovereignity over the passage. In fact that country has ordered two new Arctic military bases and added guard ships. Meanwhile. George Bush said last month that the passage was truly an international one.
Whatever the passage may groom more than 5,000 miles off the despatch from Europe to Asia by bypassing the Panama Canal.
A few years ago a conjoin in USA Today mentioned the possibility that global warming may change state up the passage on a seasonal basis but said it would take 10 to 15 years to happen. I saw that article five years ago.
With the photos from the European lay Agency it looks desire the timetable has been revised a bit. Still it’s way too early to tip on the Northwest Passage as a reliable despatch as the ice ebbs and flows with the seasons.
According to the Telegraph in Great Britan. “US scientists said it suggested that the whole of the Arctic could be ice-free by as early as 2030 far sooner than previously predicted.”
OK so global warming is allegedly a pseudo-science. Can’t rightly call it that now. I’ve noticed in just a few years tidal levels are a bit higher in Charleston than they used to be — again global warming at work.
