Law enforcement questioned Saudi National Abdul Al-Harbi at the hospital and asked permission
to search his apartment. He said "Go ahead."
They spent 9 hours at his apartment and carried away a few bags of evidence.
CBS News showed them putting the bags into the car.
CBS News also reported that Abdul Al-Harbi was tackled to the ground at the scene of the
terrorist bombing.
But you're not a professional police investigator.

I suppose that could have been partly simultaneous. What I'm saying is that a brief search (and nine hours is actually not that long) of someone's apartment is hardly suspect. Especially when it's thought - at least temporarily - that the guy might be implicated in something like the Boston bombing.
It just seems a bit odd that they would search for nine hours at an apartment of a student that they confirmed was not the bomber. They got his name, verified his credentials, cleared him (let's say it took them four hours to do that, I am being generous.... it doesn't take long to run an ID today) then searched his apartment for five more hours???
And they would not have known where his apartment was, until they verified his ID, then would have needed to go there.
Oh, and a 'brief search'? I could pack out the entire contents of a college student's apartment in 9 hours, less with a helper.

Well that was a good guess.
Neither are a lot of the people that do searches and seizures..
Just like a lot of coroners are not doctors or even have any training in the medical field.

Yes, Abdul al-Harbi WAS tackled to the ground and placed in custody.
Yes, the FBI removed bags of evidence if you watch the entire video.

I know. It's just that everybody except you and Glenn Beck has very little issue with this.
Scratch that, even Glenn isn't with you on this one.

You see, this is where you are running into trouble. You have no evidence that he was 'already in the system', because you don't know what the Prior Event File #1648067 means or when it was from. It could be a traffic violation, it could refer to him arriving in the US - you don't know, so your conclusion is pure bunk.

Abdul Al-Harbi. Is this document real or fake?
Glenn Beck stated that Congressman Duncan has the original Event File in his hand.
Is that statement true or false?

You see, this is where my argument trumps your argument.
You already admitted that the Event File appears genuine.
Prior Event #1648067 can be clearly seen on the file.

Probably real. But you'll note that it's quite old. And none of the congressmen seem worried about Al-Harbi anymore.
So I guess they got their answers and are happy with them.

It may be true, but Glenn has gone awfully quiet, hasn't he? And even if it is true, you don't know anything about that file or what's in it, so your conclusions are worthless.

I'm not saying the Prior Event isn't real. I'm saying that until you can describe what it is you can forget about this being proof of anything.
What is the prior event? Unless you can show that it is a significant occurrence from before the bombings that landed him on a watchlist your "evidence" is worth about as much as your claims that the guy's name is suspicious. Nothing.
So go ahead. Tell us what it is? And while you're at it, explain why, if it's so bad, Duncan hasn't bothered with it for nearly two weeks.edit on 29-4-2013 by JuniorDisco because: (no reason given)

Where are you getting news that the FBI is looking for a 3rd bomber? Latest news I've heard is that they are wondering and trying to answer if more were involved. Five agents were entering the wife's home as of an hour ago.

No, I understand where you are coming from in the context of this discussion.
I just wonder how anyone can believe any media outlets when they all get it wrong, and they get it wrong a lot.
Whether it is all the wrong info that comes out in live reporting (as in Sandy Hook and the Boston Marathon), or when NBC news couldn't get a Chevy truck gas tank to explode so they rigged it with pyrotechnic devices to make it look like it blew up by itself.
