#1 wonder if this guy also has links to a certain DC mosque.

#2 I thought drinking alcohol was against Islam? So if he was intoxicated he can't have been a Muslim terrorist, but just another unruly drunk.

#3 Didn't say he was drinking, said he was "Drunk" there are other plentiful drugs to get "Drunk" on.
And the Koran says nothing about them, just alcohol.

#4 Thank you Buckley AFB in Aurora and the Air National Guard for those F-16s.

#5 DISCLAIMER: The above information is unofficial and apocryphal based on public observation of F-16 activity at said base at an unusual time for that day.

Wonder why the PAO down in FL doesn't release that info? Its not exactly OPSEC worthy. Its public and open information that particular bases and units, based on the aircraft type and location, perform that mission for given regions of the nation.

#6 I suspect the USAF/NORAD prefers the anonymity.

#7 Lots of the suicide folks take some kind of drug before doing their act. Remember, the underwear (whatever you are calling him)bomber was in a "dazed" state.

Guy could have been "under the influence" with a different kind of high.

Notice, no mention of name, serial number, etc. We seem to be getting a "rash" of the "drunks" disrupting air travel these last few weeks.

#8 There may not be any more incidents than normal; the press is reporting every one and the TSA may be over-reacting.

#9 A drunk guy namr Muhammad that lock himself in the bathroom is worthy of concern. If this was not an event it was another rehearsal.
