American officials have cause to worry there may be more al Qaeda-trained young men in Yemen planning to bring down American jets.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab told FBI agents there are more just like him in Yemen.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, charged with the attempted Christmas Day bombing of Northwest Airlines flight 253, told FBI agents there were more just like him in Yemen who would strike soon.

And in a tape released four days before the attempted destruction of the Detroit-bound Northwest plane, the leader of al Qaeda in Yemen boasted of what was planned for Americans, saying, "We are carrying a bomb to hit the enemies of God."

Yemen has become a principal al Qaeda training ground and the accused suicide bomber told the FBI he was trained for more than a month in Yemen, given 80 grams of a high explosive cleverly sewn into his underpants, undetected by standard security screening.

I suggest you brush up on the war in Yemen! Just a couple of weeks ago, Obama authorized a strike in the area.

@ Lacrisma,
Who cares what you believe? The truth is the truth. Get over it.

This will strengthen BNP in Britain, Islam extremist are contributing real havoc to the entire world, why blow up a plane with kids, Mothers and Fathers who have loved ones waiting for them back at home just because your religion think it is the right thing to do! what kind of people practice such religion anyway

Sorry but the news is NOT the absolute truth. Lots of propaganda/business marketing.

SEFAGO:

Nigerians love ignorance.

This people are extermist and violent people, and not in anyway religious or have any faith. They are just using religion as cover. Both Christian and muslim are religion of peace and love. some mental retarded persons have hijacked Islam in particular to spew hatred. Those people are not muslim because there will be at least 10-50 good muslims on that pane, how can yu blow up your' brothers/sisters' even if you think others ar 'infidels'

Secondly, the quote author please change your screen name, we have enough violent in the world

God bless you and all people of peace loving faith. The incident has nothing to do with Nigeria, except the stupid boy is carying a Nigerian passport , he got his training in Yemen. He does not live in Nigeria even though his father is Nigerian, his mother side are from Yemen

Was he on Amsterdam's watchlist?

With each passing day, it has become very clear that the Umar guy is NOT a ''true'' Nigerian - at least going by the type of stuff I've been reading and seeing on TV since after Xmas. His carrying a naija passport is a ''mistake'' He should have used his Yemeni passport instead.

I av said i wouldnt link it to religion,but with this revelation islam is not a religion of peace but of evil.How can they call americans Gods enemies? Has God ever come out to identify his enemies to any1? Imagine brainwashing young pple with bright future by inciting them to kill&destroy lives.Among several religions,why must it be only islam that will be supporting jihad.Killing in d name of God.Why? Taliban,al queda,bin laden,iraqi insurgents, hamas are all islamic terrors.Even boko haram sects are all muslims.must islam wipe off the entire world? Imagine if d plane had blown,will Nigerians not be killed on board

You have to understand that unless we discourage this irrational belief in an unseen God this kind of rubbish will continue. It's bad enough we fight over our ethnic or racial origins, but when you put religion in it . . .
Just close your eyes, take a deep breath and say in your head, "There is no God"

so closing your eyes and saying it, extinguishes the existence of God?
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and said in my head and my heart, thank God for God.

oya, back to topic.
