Abdo indicted
I don’tknow why, exactly, but the media is being especially quiet about this one. Anyway, Abdo was indicted in a Waco courtroom today according to the Washington Times;
Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo, 21, was indicted in Waco on charges of possession of an unregistered destructive device, possession of a firearm and possession of ammunition by a fugitive from justice, according to federal prosecutors. He faces up to 10 years in prison on each charge if convicted.
He is being held without bond and has yet to enter a plea. His attorney, Keith Dorsett, did not return a telephone call seeking comment Tuesday.
I’m guessing that Keith Dorsett, his attorney was court-appointed. Mr. Dorsett, a Waco-based attorney, claims to be a former police officer and a prosecutor in my neck of the woods here in eastern West Virginia. I’m disappointed that Branum abandoned his client at the first whiff of terrorist behavior. His other clients should take that as a warning of how much Branum is committed to them. I mean, Branum dumped Abdo on Facebook – what a coward.
IVAW hasn’t had anything to say since Jose Vasquez’ statement on the day of his arrest well, except to Mother Jones bottom boy Adam Weinstein. It’s funny how Vasquez denies that IVAW had little to do with Abdo, but my ninjas tell me that former IVAW members have kept the FBI offices across Texas busy with interviews. I’m pretty sure they’re not telling the agents that the organization had no contact with Abdo. They were lining up as soon as Abdo was arrested as if they wanted to make sure that they didn’t get implicated in something.

loyalty is something IVAW gave up on a LOOONNGGG time ago. I find it interesting that something that was ALMOST a repeat of Maj Hassan’s rampage, by rights SHOULD be covered.
Speaking of which whats going on with The Crippled Major?
The biotch boys n girls have been active until this…Go figure….
The media don’t like stories such as Abdo’s for the same reason they are focusing on the rioting in UK while nary a peep is heard about the Wisconsin state fair madness: The Abdo and fair stories run counter to the political-correctness template. One simply cannot have stories of marauding American blacks targeting whites any more than one can spotlight yet another home-grown terrorist who seeks to honor Islam by murdering innocents. I am quite certain that every major media outlet’s style book prohibits or discourages the mention of race, religion and ethnicity when doing so regarding an individual might negatively reflect on a group. The exception to that rule we all know. And that explains why McVeigh’s is kept alive, even though his evil deed is ancient history to all but his victims’ families.
When idiots give shout-outs to mass murderers at arraignment…

Bingo, 2-17. Mustn’t write or show anything that would go against the meme of the day, you know, those TP people, or the evil rich.
2-17, It is an interesting thing. OKC Bombing has been brought up so many times, and yet 9-11 has been all but forgotten. When it was clear that the Norwegian man WASN’T Muslim (despite following their MO) OKC was instantly brought up. why not bring up 9-11 the next time some cartoonist prints a picture of Mohamed.
