It looks now like the buyer of the SUV is a man of Pakistani descent, not the white dude in his 40s seen removing his shirt as he walked away from the vehicle.

**The sport utility vehicle used in Saturday’s attempted attack was recently sold to a man described as Hispanic or Middle Eastern, the sources told Reuters.

Turns out it’s the usual suspect after all. Sport utility vehicles.
What definition of witnessing are you using?
Arrest made. Cops have one man in custody, looking for another. Possible tie to Pakistan.
The guy is of Pakistani ethnicity, so not the M.E. 
Wow. They actually arrested the guy as the plane he was on was taxiing on the tarmac before takeoff to Dubai.
Care to revise and extend your comments?
I forget. Why does Pakistan hate us again? It’s hard to keep track of 'em all.
They have an abiding hatred of fast food?

My guess is they think we aren’t doing enough with the drone attacks, and are killing too few civilians.
On reflection, it could be that they hate us for our…

Mea culpa. I don’t know what I was thinking in assuming that a terrorist nutjob originally described as a white man would have anything to do with the voice of reason that is Glenn Beck. After all, its not like any of his viewers have ever gone off the deep end before.
I just figured he meant that the kind nutjob who would watch Glen Beck is the kind of person who would try to blow up an SUV in Times Square.
And he was wrong. So, your point is…?
Well, do we even know he’s wrong? For all we know the guy could have TiVoed all of Glen Beck’s shows at home.
You’re right. We should look at the facts. I’m open to whatever facts there are that this guys was Glenn Beck fan. And if there aren’t any, then that original post has no merit.
I’m not saying he was or that he wasn’t. Just that I interpreted the original post as just sort of being a joke–you’d have to be insane to watch Glen Beck.
I’m puzzled why you would make such a reach of an argument when that poster made an obviously serious, though feeble. attempt to defend that original post in post 52.
I don’t know. I’m not really all that invested in this–I just thought it was funny. Anyway, let’s move on to more important matters. Like was Hank Hill really in the alley when this was going down? Really?
Glenn Beck viewer. heh that’s funny. Kinda like Hollywood films having German terrorists for fear of upsetting certain other more likely groups. Anyway, given that the terrorist had obtained US citizenship and your ongoing war against terrorism, could he / should he be charged with treason?
