Why Abdulmutallab Failed To Blow Up Our Plane – US by lanre2009: 6:47am On Jul 26, 2014 |
The United States has said that the Nigerian terrorist, Umar Abdulmutallab, failed to successfully carry out a bomb attack in 2009 because the explosives he was wired with became ‘degraded’ after he wore the same pair of underpants for two weeks. Abdulmutallab had, at the age of 23, confessed to and convicted of attempting to detonate plastic explosives hidden in his underwear while aboard a Northwest Airlines Flight 253, en route from Amsterdam to Michigan, US on December 25, 2009. However, United States officials explained that the bomb failed to detonate aboard the flight, which was carrying nearly 300 people, but caused a brief fire that caused burns to his groin. He was sentenced to life without parole in February 2012 after he pleaded guilty to all charges on the second day of his trial the previous October. The U.S. Head of the Transportation Security Administration, John Pistole, said during the week that the bomb failed to detonate because of how long Abdulmutallab had been wearing his underwear. Pistole said, “The bomber had had the device with him for over two weeks.” When he was then asked whether the bomb had become ‘damp’ Pistole replied that the explosive had become damp due to the length of days Abdulmutallab carried the device in his underwear. During his trial, Abdulmutallab said the bomb in his underwear was a ‘blessed weapon’ to avenge poorly treated Muslims around the world. However, after the bomb failed to detonate, passengers pounced on Abdulmutallab and forced him to the front of Northwest Airlines Flight 253 where he was held until the plane landed minutes later.

olukenzo: I try as much as possible to be objective and realistic in my comments. I say it as it is. Did you read the reason he gave for wanting to blow up the plane? I've listened to sermons from supposedly Islamic scholars especially after the Magrib prayer (I hope I got the spelling right) where the sermons centered on hating non muslims (this is not hearsay). For goodness sake, why should religious leaders preach that to their followers Trust me when I say that its more from the Muslims angle... 7 Likes |

HerexG: Lol. I'm not gonna be drawn into debating the Qur'an with you sir. Maybe that's reprehensible because I'd lose the opportunity to prompt thinking and maybe reduce the vitriol against my faith and maybe touch your heart (fat chance). However, I'm lazy. Maybe another time. To help support your cause, paste 20 consecutive verses of Surah 47 here. Enjoy brother! |
