Faisal Shahzad Was Blogging On Terror Websites Since 2006 But Obama Administration Took Him Off Terror Watch List Anyway
by Jim HoftEarlier this week it was reported that the Obama White House removed confessed terrorist Faisal Shahzad from the Department of Homeland Security travel lookout list sometime after Barack Obama came into office.
Terrorist Faisal Shahzad had substantial connections to the Taliban, reached out to the Taliban, was influenced by Yemeni terror leader Anwar al Awlaki, made at least a dozen return trips to Pakistan since arriving in the United States in 1999, and he bought a one way ticket with cash to Pakistan.
Now we find out that he was “blogging” and asking for jihad as far back as 2006 but that the Obama Administration took him off the terror watch list anyway.
Terror expert Walid Phares weighed in on the confessed Times Square bomber today in an interview on FOX News:
To be clear, Shahzad was actually commenting on terrorist websites and not actually blogging.
Earlier this week it was discovered that Shahzad was posting on terror websites since 2006.
FOX News reported:
FoxNews.com has uncovered several dozens of postings by a man named Faisal Shahzad on radical Islamist Salafist websites devoted to a variety of different jihadist sects.
Experts suspect this is the same Faisal Shahzad whom authorities have charged with plotting to explode a massive car bomb in New York on Saturday. If so, then he has been educating himself on the Internet for years on the legitimacy of holy war.
Shahzad visited numerous websites devoted to ideological discussion of Islamism and Shariah law. His apparent online posts date back to at least 2006 — three years before the Times Square suspect became a naturalized American citizen.
“If the person on these websites is indeed the suspected bomber, the postings show that he was intellectually thinking about engaging in jihadism for a few years,” said Dr. Walid Phares, director of the Future Terrorism Project at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. “Knowing that, the ideology of jihadism often has inspired violence and terrorism…
“These can be coined as Islamist Salafist websites where lots of material is posted, including theological, ideological and political texts and blogs,” Phares said, noting that he saw discussions about fatwas, jihad and other Islamist causes on these sites.”
As Walid Phares said in an interview on FOX and Friends earlier in the week, Faisal was no lone wolf:
“When a guy makes a phone call, he’s no longer a lone wolf. A lone wolf is somebody who doesn’t tell anybody else about the issue. He doesn’t share that information. He made phone calls… He may be deployed as a lone wolf. It is much easier to send one terrorist as 10 terrorists. But, he is not alone with conducting terror.”
If the Obama Administration removed a guy like Faisal Shahzad from the terror watch list sometime after 2008, just what does a guy have to do to make Team Obama’s list?

Join a Tea Party, of course.
Oh come on now, let's not jump to any conclusions….. He may have just stumbled onto those sites by accident and mistakenly wrote highly inflammatory material at an incredibly weak moment in his sorry ass life LOL
The "one" wouldn't want to bring any attention to his people now would he…
This is not your ancestors Ellis Island.
Obama hates America and he's doing all the damage he can, while he can.
What also seems to be completely unreported and pointed out is how the Taliban have morphed from a provincial terrorist organization into a international terrorist organization. Posting a video the day before the bombing on youtube taking credit for the bombing.
Maybe Mayor Bloomberg will give his 25 cent opinion one day on the importance of this fact.
Don't forget policemen and the Supreme Court.

Who else have they removed? And why?
In Obamaland it's the Tea Partiers that are the terrorists.
Adolf, Joe, Mao, Che, Fidel, Hugo,,……
gotta make room for all those 40 year white guyts.
I sure would like to know,…….
what type of person actually watches the,……MSM.,…..???????
Just curious, but why is the White House vetting the no-fly list? Can't imagine this is something the inner circle is getting involved in, so who up there has the authority to tell the Department of Homeland Security to take someone off the list. Is there another Czar we haven't heard about?
Lest I be looked at as an Obama apologist, I am not. I think this deserves deep and serious follow-up, which means the MSM won't be bothered. It's up to Fox and the bloggers out there. You go guys!!!

………talk about a collective "sandwich shy a picnic".
They cannot be this stupid or crazy. They are working toward a state of complete crisis.
And then, I they own the world. (they think)
Don't forget soccer Moms and Grandmothers…
Anyone not interested in knowing the truth about what is going on in our world these days.
Exactly what I was wondering……..AND- when will we be "hearing" from them? Before or after they blow something to kingdom come?
You see, if you agree with Obama's opinions, then you obviously can't be a terrorist……..
Kool-Aid ADDICTS and recent students from permissive families and progressive teachers (indoctrination specialists).

We must have "lists" like the Soviet Union….then pretend we are hated for our "freedoms." What a bunch of loons you neocons are. You can thank Bush for giving him an H1-B visa and permanent residence.
I sure would like some of those Senior Republican Senators to start demanding answers and holding hearings. Lideen is citing some belief that there is direct assistance being provided during plane boarding. Same to be said of "underwear bomber", as there was some mystery as to how he got on flight. It is up to the Senators to call press hearings and demand to know what is going on.
We all trip over things on the web and sometimes we share them. I have had this for a good bit of time and have no reason to doubt its' validity. Please be calm and digest it for some time before going over the deep end. It is a real eye opener to say the least.

I'm sure he was just upset about the economy, jobs, and his home mortgage.
The fact that he'd moved his wife and kids to Pakistan, went to training camps, ditching his mortgage, and sucking all the money out of his house on a second mortgage ahead of time was purely a coincidence.
Surely, the poor guy wasn't living like a Spartan just because he planned to bomb and run? Come on now ….

BO and his administation go with terror like peas in a pod. Dont be fooled…their cover is thin..its like when the ACLU takes a pro Catholic case or something similar: its a smokescreen, nothing else.
November 2010 is coming fast. If we are allowed to vote, there will be a hugh change. Not the one Obama wants.My guess is that Obama will figure out a way of stopping the elections like Marshal Law. If that happens, we will have our first dictator and our second revolution

[...] This is precisely why a bomb was criminally allowed to be placed in Times Square by a Muslim terrori…. TMN administration in order to allow terrorists the widest latitude possible to murder Americans and create a positive political issue for TMN to pretend he cares about American lives. He doesn’t.

the uninformed and the delusional
Shahzad was removed from the terrorist watch list in 2008, before Obama had taken office. "Just because Obama won the election in 2008 doesn't make him responsible… he took office in 2009.
Maybe the Bush administration should have done some research before making such determination.
From a CBS article:
Sources tell CBS News that would-be Times Square bomber Faisal Shahzad appeared on a U.S government travel travel lookout list – Traveler Enforcement Compliance System (TECS) – between 1999 and 2008 because he brought approximately $80,000 cash or cash instruments into the United States.

But that would be Profiling! Who Cares about America,As An Obamination We Must Protect the Koran! America Wake Up! We Have A Communist,Socialist,Marxist,Muslim, in Office!
Ridiculous.
And lemme take a guess……this is widely ignored by the MSMs.
I have been thinking that the dark suits would be here any day now. I best make sure to have plenty of nice tea for a visit!
He probably was looking to join a Christian militia and his lousy infidel browser misdirected him.
Holder spoke? That must have been painful to sit through.
No, they fund the Christian millitias that are the really violent ones.
Can you believe they sit around drinking beer and complaining amongst themselves?
No wonder they all got arrested!
I hate to point out the obvious, but why would a marxist agitator want to fund someone to blow up a nissan SUV? Is it to sell more Obama Motors models or something? What conspiracy do you have going now?
Yet, you fail to point out why he's wrong.
What has Obama done since taking office to show loyalty to our way of life?
What has he done to protect our way of life? Was it the 110 days of golfing before making up his mind on troops to Afghanistan?
The gun clingers.
I was kind of thinking the confused and delusional, but you convinced me.
Wow, it really does make one wonder how to make the list if this guy was tossed off of it by Obama.
Others till on Obama's watch list: Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Rick Santelli, Ron Paul, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Sarah Palin, NIcholas Sarkozy, Gordon Brown, Michele Bachman, Jan Brewer, the Navy Seals and the CIA.
People mumble and say it's not true, but I've never seen anyone offer anything to prove it wrong.
And what information I've seen on other sources back up the major claims that video makes.
And Obama for letting him get on the plane to leave.
Too bad in the middle he was posting comments on terror sites and visiting Pakistan to train. And too bad when He struck Obama's administration continues to lie about a lone wolf, and how Pakistan Taliban were not responsible and how there were no connections, and that he acted entirely alone.
What a bunch of loons you liberals are. You can thank Obama for not having a competent secretary in Homeland security and for destroying morale in the CIA so these trips overseas weren't noticed.
Sheesh, where is a good muslim supposed to go and watch porn then?
And right now there is a story that Pakistan test fired two missiles and demands acceptance as a nuclear power.
Not everyone around the world rolls over for Obama and his side kick the thick armed wookie. http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=201...
And if the CIA was still collecting information without the fear of prosecution they would have reported this guy training all over the place in Pakistan.
And it's not that he slipped through the cracks, it is that the response has been so abysmal. They still haven't gotten their story straight and the media still covers for his administration.
Janet and her horrible hair do need to be shown the door and someone with a 'fire in the belly' needs to be put in that spot.
And what has FEMA done for Tennessee? There is a video clip of a canoe floating over the stage in the grand ole oprey house, the MSM isn't covering that. Why? Why are liberals ignoring the rest of the country, they sure notice when anything happens in their liberal neighborhoods.
Is that all Bush's fault too?
I hate to point this out, because I agree he has muslim cultural ties, and heritage.
But he was born Barak Hussein Obama, and went by Barry Saetoro when his mom remarried and moved to Indonesia. He continued to go by Barry for many years, but he never actually 'changed' his name. He just returned to his original muslim based name.
Damn it anytime everytime there is smoke there is something burning. Removal accidental my A—-. This admin does nothing accidental nothing.
What a hoot that site was! Thanks for posting it.
I'm sure you are going to offend a lot if they look at it, but it just was wrong enough.
Don't forget the captain that didn't stop the navy seals from shooting the pirates.
He might be a Christian, you just can't tell.
So again, how much did he donate to Obama's campaign?
I find it interesting that while this guy was on the list he remained inactive , but shortly after being dropped he carried out his terrorist plot. If Ididn't know any better I'd say we have moles in the DHS telling these guys "you're being watched, lay low", and then when they are dropped from the list "green light go, go". If I were more synical I might even say the DHS activated them intensionaly.
No lack of Mohammed images at that site. Comedy Central eat your heart out!

And the US Constitution and his oath of office.
Obama will COVER UP his cat turds in the sand. I suggest an investigative reporter look into Obama's COVER UP OPERATIONS. Someone needs to investigate the F.B.I cover-up of FT. HOOD, Detroit Bomber, now Faisel the Rat Fink. I smell a rat . Code Pink and their Hamas ties to the White House.
Is there some commonly prescribed medication that as a side effect induces extreme naivete'?
The Congress lives in denial.
The Regime lives in denial.
WTF are sane folks to do?
Where the hell is Pat Roberts R, KS ? I will listen to no one else on this matter.
FIGHT on PATRIOTS ! ! !
That's a great question Roger, thanks for the laugh
too funny Ralph, lol
that's why they did the mmm, mmm, thing right?! cuz it's the muslim marxist mistake = mmm -:)
If the Obama Administration removed a guy like Faisal Shahzad from the terror watch list sometime after 2008, just what does a guy have to do to make Team Obama’s list?
My question before this is answered must be who else has been dropped from the terror watch lists that passed from Team Bush to Team Obama? Already identified and perhaps ready to dance the dance while being ignored by the Us Government on Obama's watch to start their own personal war on America.
Good grief SsC, I'm sitting here shaking my head in disbelief…………….your question of who else
has been dropped should be on some Senators' ( Homeland Security Comittee) desk Monday
morning. With the R's lack of power, they can't even hold an investigative hearing, can they.
So many have said over and over the Regime will try to institute martial law before the elections.
Up until I read this I was doubtful of their fears, now I'm thinking how a bunch of attacks would
give the Regime the perfect excuse to shut down the net, do martial law and probably a lot more
scary stuff I haven't thought of yet.

hussein……hussein obama….get it!
Perhaps the Obama administration doesn't consider him a terrorist. Big moma had conservatives and returning vets put on a watch list. Then Holder wants to bring 9/11 master mind to New York for trial. We have to read rights to terrorists on the battle field and if they get a bloody lip this administration puts the good guys on trial. The Enemy from with-in comes to mind. How about the Mosque proposed to be built two blocks from the former world trade center location.
Then the next question is: "How many like Shahzad has Obama's Administration dropped from the watch list that should still be on the list?"
Martial law imposed due to civil unrest brought about by multiple terror attacks on major population
centers as a result of the Regimes removal of hundreds or even thousands of Muslims whom the
Bush Adm had kept a close eye on, since they had immigrated to the US.
I hope my name appears with this list too.
Millions were bequeathed to CAIR in Obamao's stimu-LESS bill.
By the way, Hack Holder spoke at a CAIR fundraising dinner right after he dropped charges against the Black Panthers in Philly.
Bastards. I'm so sick of this administration AND the passes they are given by the lame stream media.

maybe the money leads to Bush and other TX oil millionaires.
So would you think it is good for Hoft to misreport and present a false notion as fact?
I think that the media constantly reporting on terrorist suspects could do more to harm the investigation then help. He was captured, they should let government do its work and continue to probe for info. It is possible that they have been feeding the media misinformation to keep potential targets from finding out information they may have…
I would also think that the idea of FEMA acting in Tenessee would violate the idea of limited government… Fox had an interesting comment from the Heritage Foundation in one of their news stories:
"From an operational standpoint, disaster response should be driven by state and local governments, as they are the owners of most of the response resources and they are the first on the scene when disaster strikes," Jena Baker McNeill and Matt Mayer of the Heritage Foundation said in a report published last month. "Supplanting this funding encourages state and local governments to not be prepared, knowing that the federal government will bail them out."
By that logic, FEMA is just another bailout for the states…
I'm certain that the administration is working in Tenessee. A shot of a canoe in the Grand Ol' Opry makes good drama, but I doubt that is an indicator of the entire situation…
you're a f%%%ing a^^hole.
My goodness the reason why Obama is so sympathetic to the likes of muslim terrorists is because he is a muslim. When one becomes a muslim he must change his name. Barry Saetoro is Obama's birth name, but he changed it when he became a muslim. Just like Cat Stevens and Muhammed Ali (formerly Cassius Clay) and others. No one dares mention we have the fFIRST, mulatto, muslim president. He is not a, " first black president" who claims to be christian…no way jose. (oops shd I dare use a hispanic name)= Go to the archives inhttp://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/30/us/politics/30obama.ht... http://www.wikicu.com/Barack_Obama; http://www.kansasprairie,net/kansasprairieblog/?p=7016
Martial law won't be until 2012. Team Obama is planning a little incursion into the lawless regions of Pakistan for 2010. When you read the Sunday papers tomorrow you will see the ground work being laid.
…just what does a guy have to do to make Team Obama’s list?
You just did it!
Team Obama wanted a smaller list so they could divert Homeland Security and FBI resources to infiltrating militia in Michigan.
The 2010 surprise Barry has cooking is an invasion of the lawless regions of Pakistan. My guess it will be around the end of September. Read tomorrows papers, you'll see.
Yea, but that is no fun!
Obama is just probably upset they didn't discover him soon enough to offer him a job.
Can I throw out the first pitch,…???
People mumble and say it's not true, but I've never seen anyone offer anything to prove it wrong.
And what information I've seen on other sources back up the major claims that video makes.
Let nobody say that Red Hussein doesn't take good care of his homies.
I am curious what taxation without representation the teabaggers are protesting?

Professional courtesy.
What is "our way of life?" What is this mythical, "real american" I see you people constantly mentioning? As far as I know, the only "real americans" were the people living here before we started coming here in 1607 -1620.
You can't have a democrat supporter on the watch list. That would be profiling.
