On Thanksgiving weekend, a horrific “near miss” occurred in Oregon, as Mohamed Osman Mohamud, a Somali immigrant and aspiring Islamic terrorist attempted to explode a truck bomb in the middle of a crowd that had gathered in Portland for the Christmas tree lighting ceremony. We can all rest easy however, knowing that the Department of Homeland Security is already on the case. No doubt they will soon announce plans for the installation of nude body scanners at all Christmas tree lots, along with a federal mandate that every blonde-haired, blue eyed six year old or octogenarian who discusses plans to attend tree-lightings, Christmas parades, or any other holiday festivity will henceforth be subjected to TSA style grope-searches.
This alarming event comes barely a year after Nidal Hasan, a Muslim Army Major, opened fire at Fort Hood Texas, killing thirteen and wounding dozens more as he yelled “Allahu Akbar” (Allah is great). In the intervening months, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab of Nigeria, the so-called “underwear bomber,” attempted to kill the passengers and crew of Northwest Airlines flight 253 over Detroit on Christmas Day 2009, followed a few months later by Faisal Shahzad, a Pakistani who tried to detonate a truck bomb in Times Square on May 1, 2010. That neither Abdulmutallab nor Shahzad were able to properly ignite their bombs must be attributed to “luck” or Providence, since both clearly intended mass murder and were within a hair’s breadth of succeeding. Does anyone see a pattern here?
