New York suspect had one-way ticket to Pakistan
2010-05-06
[Al Arabiya Latest] The chief suspect in the attempted bombing of New York's Times Square tried to flee the United States with a one-way ticket to Islamabad, an Emirates Airlines official said on Wednesday.

"We have been informed that he had a one-way ticket for Islamabad via Dubai," Boutros Boutros, Emirates deputy president and head of communications, told Al Arabiya.

Pakistani-American suspect Faisal Shahzad was arrested and taken into custody on Monday in New York as he was trying to board an Emirates Airlines bound for Dubai from New York's John F. Kennedy Airport.

#1  I still say that the terrorist need a No Jihadi Left Behind Program. He was passed through to graduation and probably wasn't even capable of blowing up a 2 liter of Diet Coke with a handfull of Mentos.
