A young man around 23, named Farouk Umar Mutallab, a son of a prominent politician, a former minister and a former Chairman of First Bank Nigeria PLC, was arrested by security operatives in an attempt to bring down an aircraft flying from in Amsterdam to Michigan in the US, on the Christmas day, 25th December 2009. He attempted this terrorist attack when the plane was approaching the destination in US. According to ABC, CNN and the entirety of the corporate media, this guy was trained in Yemen by Alqaida operatives for one month before the day of the attack and also there are a host of other recently trained terrorists like him that will still strike soon. All these information were obtained when this guy was interrogated by FBI and CIA officials. This or something like this story is what you hear from the corporate media and other media around the world that follow them without questioning apparent errors in their stories.
As a citizen of the ‘global village’ and as an educated individual, any event that has to do with security and peaceful existence on this globe should be subjected to careful analysis and scrutiny, on a platform of fairness and open-mindedness. In reality, no one can claim to be completely and absolutely fair or balanced - that is the very nature of human being, and we can not help being angels or robots – but an enlightened mind should try his best at being fair in handling matters. Everybody – except the imbeciles – has got one mindset or the other based on which class he belongs to, but it’s a praiseworthy attribute to be able to scrutinize events as they unfold and not be fooled by the media or brainwashers. Unfortunately the media, local or international, government controlled or independently owned is corrupt and shamelessly biased in matters of world politics. At this juncture, let me make a vital point. To an ‘average’ person, the government can not be wrong: the accused person(s) – terrorists, activists, freedom fighters, pressure group, and so on – is to be blamed. This is a wrong perspective. Take it. History had documented several grievous actions taken by the government against people, individuals and groups and in majority of those instances, it’s all about a ‘powerful’ person(s) – within or outside the government – struggling to achieve his personal desire using the machine of the government and media. Another pertinent point here is that the media is always the government’s mouthpiece, and the other party has limited, or at times, no means of making its views known to the public and so what the media has to say is the dominant idea, which may be terribly wrong at times. So for those of you who listen to CNN, ABC News, and so on, and then go out and say “….yes, it’s true, the government must deal with them, they must be killed, bla bla bla…”, you need to adjust lest you continue to be fooled by the brainwashing ideas that a group of people created in order to deal with another using the chance of being closer to the government than the other (the accused– terrorists, activists, freedom fighters, pressure group, and so on). Big thanks to the world of internet. Nowadays, except for the psycho-intellectually lazy individuals, it’s now not only possible but also very easy to gather information from various sources and determine who is right and who is wrong. Then it will be easy to judge matters with intellectual soundness, and not render your brain to think only in the direction the stereotyping media guides it. Okay let’s go back to the issue.
The popular report we hear and read is this: This boy left Nigeria for Amsterdam and then from there, boarded another plane Northwest Airline Flight 253 to US. He left his seat for the toilet and after spending some times in the toilet he came back to his seat only to detonate - in the eyes of everybody on board - what they called ‘explosive’, about 20 minutes to the destination airport in Michigan. He was arrested while the fire that resulted from his ‘bomb’ was extinguished after burning his trousers and the walls of the plane. After the day of the attempted bombing, a lot of shocking revelations were revealed, which will put a reasonable person at least on the fence, until clearer evidences emerge to determine where one should stay in the picture.
Whatever the media has to say about the matter, common sense gives preference should be given to the accounts provided by the eye witnesses to the event, and in this case, those on board. For anybody who fears to be tagged terrorist or alt least alleged of ‘sympathizing’ with terrorists, he would not want to implicate himself if he’s not sure of his accounts of the incident. A man named Kurt Haskell, an attorney with the Haskell Law Firm in Taylor, Michigan, was on board with his wife on the same aircraft. He detailed his experience at the Amsterdam airport and on flight 253. Mr. Haskell provided information not covered by the corporate media. CNN interviewed this man, his wife and other key eyewitnesses during their Dec. 28 program who raised these very points, making clear that the full story is still emerging and that wider-connections to intelligence handlers is evident. What did Haskell say? Read his account.
“Laurie and I were sitting near the boarding gate, sitting on the floor, there weren’t any seats to sit in. And I saw two men. They caught my eye because they seemed to be an odd pair. One was what I would describe as a poor-looking black teenager around 16 or 17, and the other man, age 50-ish, wealthy looking Indian man. And I was just wondering why they were together– kinda strange. And I watched them approach what I would call the ticket agent, the final person that checks your boarding pass before you get on the plane. And I could hear the entire conversation. The only person that spoke was the Indian man, and what he said was: ‘This man needs to board the plane, but he doesn’t have a passport.’ And the ticket agent responded, ‘Well, if he doesn’t have a passport, he can’t get on the plane.’ To which the Indian man responded back, ‘He’s from Sudan. We do this all the time.’ And the ticket agent said, ‘Well, then you’ll have to go and talk to my manager.’ And she directed them down a hallway. And that was the last time I saw the Indian man, and the black man I didn’t see again until he tried to blow up our plane hours later.”
This was said to the CNN interviewer, who also asked whether he was sure the guy he saw was the same Mutallab or someone else. He replied he could still recognize him to be the same ‘Sudanese refugee’ that was first rejected by the ticket agent in his account. Then let me ask the following questions:
Who is the ‘wealthy looking Indian man’ and why was the suspect was allowed to speak for himself when it was not established he was a deaf?
Who is the ‘we’ in his statement: ‘We do this all the time.’ and why and how was the supposed refugee allowed in the end to board an international flight, even without a passport?
Why was he not searched and scanned like they do for people before being allowed to board, particularly since he later turned out to be a person on the terror watch list even months before the attack?
Then you can see something is fishy! This guy had been on the CIA counter terrorism watch list because they suspected earlier that he may have links with Alqaeda, and also his very father had reported him to the US embassy/ CIA of his strange behaviours recently. So how was he able to scale through stringent security checks despite his security status? Think over these points. Another thing worthy of note is that another eyewitness on board the Northwest Airline flight 253, Patricia Keepman, said she noticed the a mysterious cameraman at the beginning of the flight, believing the man might have been simply excited about a first flight, or etc. Later when the ‘bombing’ incident took place, she says the “cameraman was the only one standing up, and intently filming the entire incident.” Patricia “Scotty” Keepman and her daughter witnessed the alleged botched bombing. Keepman’s daughter said that ahead of them was a man who videotaped the entire flight, including the attempted detonation. “He sat up and videotaped the entire thing, very calmly,” said Patricia. “We do know that the FBI is looking for him intensely. Since then, we’ve heard nothing about it.” The alleged videotaping of the underwear bomber and his fudged attack is another oddity that the corporate media should subject to careful scrutiny if they are sincere about exposing the truth. Who is the man and why did FBI allow him to leave with the recorded video clip if he covered everything from the beginning of the flight to the end of the events of the attack? Remember, in the first place, it’s not permitted to take video recordings while at the airport or in the plane except with special permission.
On The Alex Jones Show on Tuesday, December 29, 2009, Detroit attorney Kurt Haskell dropped bombshell revelations concerning his eyewitness experience of the Flight 253 attack and how the FBI detained a second man after dogs detected a bomb in his luggage. The FBI has not only ignored Haskell’s story, but they have launched a cover-up by refusing to even acknowledge the existence of another man who filmed the entire flight, including the aborted attack, as well as the well-dressed man who aided the bomber to board the plane even though he had no passport and was on a terror watch list. Haskell continues his account:
"After being allowed to disembark from the plane by officials, passengers were detained in customs with their carry-on luggage for six hours while they waited to be interrogated by the FBI.At this point a bomb-sniffing dog pointed at carry-on luggage in the possession of a man Haskell described as Indian around 30 years old. Officials led the man away to an interrogation room. Haskell said he was concerned because the bomb-sniffing dog had flagged the man, indicating he may have had explosives in his carry-on luggage. The Indian man was subsequently led away in handcuffs."
Another pertinent issue in this story of underwear bomber is that it was confirmed from many sources that he left Nigeria without any hand luggage. Then where did he get the supply of explosive? Is it at the Amsterdam airport or was it supplied by accomplices right in the plane before the time he used it? I think you should have a clue to the answer. One, remember the "smartly dressed Indian man from Kurt Haskell's account above, and two, the other Indian man whose carry-on luggage contained explosive according to the "bomb sniffing dog." I guess you have a clue now.
Other eye witnesses later reported that Mutallab seemed to be in a trance. This reported trance state could be corroborated with the fact that the ‘wealthy looking Indian man’ spoke on his behalf throughout. Don’t you think he may be drugged/hypnotized and programmed so that he’s not conscious of what he’s doing while on the mission? Then if this is true, who did this? Alqaeda? CIA/FBI? If it’s Alqaeda that did this, then all the security agents and the airport officials at the Amsterdam airport must have collected bribe from Alqaeda to allow this boy they were told to be watching, to board without checking him. I may be wrong! I can not say, just like some terrorist sympathizers are claiming, that CIA/FBI was responsible for the underwear bombing plot. I guess it was alqaeda that did it, but they paid bribe to them so that the boy would not be checked. Do you get the math?
It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80s arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00. I took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before someone would be able to see him. I saw him looking at his watch and decided since I wasn't busy with another patient, I would evaluate his wound. On examining it I saw it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors and got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound. While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor's appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her health. He told me that she had been there for a while! As she is a victim of Alzheimer's disease. As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he was a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him in five years now. I was surprised and asked him, 'And you still go every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are? He smiled as he patted my hand and said, 'She doesn't know me but I still know who she is.' I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps on my arm and thought, 'That is the kind of love I want in my life. True love is neither physical nor romantic'. True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be. Peace is seeing a sunset and knowing who to thank. The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have. I hope you share this with someone you care about, I just did.. Life isn't about how to survive the storm but how to dance in the rain. The road to success is not straight. There is a curve called Failure, a loop called Confusion, speed bumps called Friends, red lights called Enemies, caution lights called Family. You will have flats called Jobs. But, if you have a spare called Determination, an engine called Perseverance, insurance called Faith, a driver called Almighty God, you will make it to a place called Success. Pass it on to ten people whom you want to see blessed. Don't forget to send it back to the one who sent it to you.
On a radio phone-in program, there was this guy who presented his problem thus;
Caller:There's this girl I've known for about 10 months now whom I really really like. I've sent her flowers, called her as many times as possible in a day, everyday, told her sweet things most of it how I felt about her which was entirely true, tried everything to make her give me some attention but she just ignored me. I've moved on since then, though still single.
Then about 4 months ago, I got a new job, bought a car and moved into a new apartment (my own apartment). I guess she got word of this because right now she wouldn't let me rest. She's filling my box with mails, my phone with sms messages and calls me like her father owns the network.
Please advice me as I don't know what to do.
This was the radio presenter's reply.
Presenter:This is what you should do; when you get home on a Friday night, call her up to let her know you'll be coming to her place.
Then you rest a while. When you feel you've had enough rest then take a bath. Put on some neat clothes. Get a bottle of your best perfume.
Then drive over to her place. When you see her, pull her close and give her a very warm embrace. Softly whisper in her ears "Na God go punish you!" Then you take your leave.
LESSON 1 Eagles fly alone at high altitude and not with sparrows or other small birds. No other bird can go to the height of the eagle. Stay away from sparrows and ravens. Eagles fly with Eagles. LESSON 2 Eagles have strong vision. They have the ability to focus on something up to five kilometers away. When an eagle sites his prey, he narrows his focus on it and set out to get it. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it. Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacle and you will succeed. LESSON 3 Eagles do not eat dead things. They feed only on fresh prey. Vultures eat dead animals, but eagles will not. Be careful with what you feed your eyes and ears with, especially in movies and on TV. Steer clear of outdated and old information. Always do your research well. LESSON 4 Eagles love the storm. When clouds gather, the eagles get excited. The eagle uses the storm's wind to lift itself higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagles uses the raging storm to lift itself above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its wings. In the meantime, all the other birds hide in the leaves and branches of the trees. We can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers relish challenges and use them profitably. LESSON 5 The Eagle tests before it trusts. When a female eagle meets a male and they want to mate, she flies down to earth with the male pursuing her and she picks a twig. She flies back into the air with the male pursuing her.Once she has reached a height high enough for her, she lets the twig fall to the ground and watches it as it falls. The male chases after the twig. The faster it falls, the faster he chases it. He has to catch it before it falls to the ground. He then brings it back to the female eagle. The female eagle grabs the twig and flies to a higher altitude and then drops the twig for the male to chase. This goes on for hours, with the height increasing until the female eagle is assured that the male eagle has mastered the art of catching the twig which shows commitment. Then and only then, will she allow him to mate with her. Whether in private life or in business, one should test commitment of people inteded for partnership. LESSON 6 The Eagle Prepares for Changes: When ready to lay eggs, the female and male eagle identify a place very high on a cliff where no predators can reach. The male flies to earth and picks thorns and lays them on the crevice of the cliff, then flies to earth again to collect twigs which he lays in the intended nest. He flies back to earth and picks thorns laying them on top of the twigs. He flies back to earth and picks soft grass to cover the thorns. When this first layering is complete the male eagle runs back to earth and picks more thorns, lays them on the nest; runs back to get grass it on top of the thorns, then plucks his feathers to complete the nest. The thorns on the outside of the nest protect it from possible intruders. Both male and female eagles participate in raising the eagle family. She lays the eggs and protects them; he builds the nest and hunts. During the time of training the young ones to fly, the mother eagle throws the eaglets out of the nest. Because they are scared, they jump into the nest again. Next, she throws them out and then takes off the soft layers of the nest, leaving the thorns bare. When the scared eaglets again jump into the nest, they are pricked by thorns. Shrieking and bleeding they jump out again this time wondering why the mother and father who love them so much are torturing them. Next, mother eagle pushes them off the cliff into the air. As they shriek in fear, father eagle flies out and catches them up on his back before they fall and brings them back to the cliff.. This goes on for sometime until they start flapping their wings. They get excited at this newfound knowledge that they can fly. The preparation of the nest teaches us to prepare for changes; the preparation for the family teaches us that active participation of both partners leads to success; the pricking by the thorns tells us that sometimes being too comfortable where we are may result in us not experiencing life, not progressing and not learning at all. The thorns of life come to teach us that we need to grow, get out of the nest and live on. We may not know it but the seemingly comfortable and safe haven may have thorns. The people who love us do not let us languish in sloth but push us hard to grow and prosper. Even in seemingly bad actions they have good intentions for us.
LESSON 7 The Eagle Knows when to Retire: When an Eagle grows old, his feathers become weak and cannot take him as fast as he should. When he feels weak and about to die, he retires to a place far away in the rocks. While there, he plucks out every feather on his body until he is completely bare. He stays in this hiding place until he has grown new feathers, then he can come out. We occasionally need to shed off old habits & vain items that ensnare us rather than adding value to our lives.

There was a man who worked all his life and saved all his money. He was a real miser when it came to his money. He loved money more than anything. Just before he died, he said to his wife: “Now listen, when I die, I want you to take all my money and place it in the casket with me. I wanna take my money to the afterlife.” So he got his wife to promise him with all her heart that when he died, she would put all the money in the casket with him. One day, he died. He was stretched out in the casket; the wife was sitting there in black, next to her closed friend. When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket, the wife said: “wait a minute! I have a shoe box with me," and came over with the box and placed it in the casket. Then the undertakers locked he casket down and rolled it away. Her friend said, “I hope you weren’t crazy enough to put all the money in the casket?” “Yes,” the wife said, “I promised, I am a good Christian, I can’t lie. I promised him I was going to put that money in the casket with him.” “You mean to tell me you put every cent of his money in the casket with him?” “I sure did. I got it all together, put it into my account and I wrote him a CHEQUE. ”
