ALEXANDRIA, Va. (The Blaze/AP) — Federal authorities say an Arlington man is accused of making a threat on Facebook to blow up the D.C. subway system.
A judge ordered a mental evaluation for Awais Younis on Tuesday. He was arrested last week on charges of communicating threats across state lines.
A sworn statement from an FBI agent says Younis told a friend on the social networking site that he could use pipe bombs to kill people on the Metro system and in D.C.’s Georgetown neighborhood. The friend alerted the FBI.
The statement, obtained by TPM, gives more details about Younis’s threat. Apparently he wanted to place the pipe bombs on the third and fifth cars of a metro train since they usually contain the most passengers. He also entertained the idea of placing a bomb underneath a sewer head in Georgetown during rush hour.
Younis also made threats online against the friend who reported him.
The Washington Examiner says Younis was born in Afghanistan, while his Facebook profile reveals he attended George Mason University.

Posted on December 16, 2010 at 4:55pmI fear this man less than those who truly intend it. for those who want to do it will never announce their action. This man either made an enraged statement or was seeking publicity or was just mental.
though one can conclude that his threat has validity for the true terrorist who wants to take down Washington D.C.. If such a plan is really in the making they are wasting time for come 2012 the average American armed with the vote will take down the Oligarchy that currently is in power in Washington D.C.

Posted on December 14, 2010 at 6:04pmDrug dealers wouldn‘t have to do what they do if the politicians weren’t stealing our money through taxes and spending to the degree that a normal job won‘t cut it for life’s expenses.
BTW, there wouldn’t be any illegal drug trade cross-border if Americans weren’t restricted by the family-values Nazis from growing their own drugs.
They’re gonna do their drugs whether regardless…
Or are you prepared to hire and pay for 300 million new police officers to police every single citizen 24/7?
Maybe we’ll just let them put a chip in us to snitch on us when we do drugs…yea that’s it.

Posted on December 14, 2010 at 3:53pmWHO ARE THE ARABS, WHAT IS THIS INFECTION CALLED ISLAM, AND WHY DO ISLAM AND THE LEFT MAKE SUCH GOOD BEDFELLOWS?
Watch Marc Rubin’s Viral Video “DADA – The Enemy of Liberty” http://www.marcrubin.com/dada2.ivnu to learn about Progressive-Dada (their true name)
LINEAGE OF ARABS (Descendants of Ham) – Archeological Research garnered from tablet fragments: Hittite, Akkadian and Sumerian:
1.3000 BCE descendants of Canaan, grandson of Noah via Ham break out of their proscribed region – southern Turkey – immediately north of the Euphrates River – True “Syria”. Some move southward into the Levant. Most rename themselves As-Syrians. They garner iron from the Hittites and invade and destroy Haran, Assur (neighboring cities ) and attack Nineveh.
2.300-600 years later they have burnt Niniveh to the ground and made Babylon their capitol (Babylon founded by Nimrod I, firstborn of Ham).
3.Later the Akkadian King, Sargon of Niniveh heritage, recaptures northern Mesopotamia and conquers Babylon, making it his capitol as Niniveh was still in ruins.
4.From several recorded Sumerian records from Ubaid, Ur and Uruk tell of the children of Nimrod/children of the Assyrians evacuate Babylon and move into the North-Central grass plains of the Arabian Peninsula. THEY ARE THE FIRST ARABS(ARABIANS).
5.From previous historical records, it is known that the peoples living south of the Euphrates River, down the Euphrates River. East through the Indus region and Persia and the peoples of seacoast of the Arabian Peninsula and Ethiopia are descendants are the first born of Noah (Shem), and they do not intermarry with the descendants of Ham.
6.Midianites, at their root, are Sumerian sheepherders who later combined with offspring of the House of Abraham (a Sumerian), combined with or intermarried to peoples from the Kingdom of Sheba (Yemen) and Ethiopia.
7.MOST IMPORTANT CLUE: Every culture had a signature animal symbol. Throughout Mesopotamia and the regions of the second born of Noah (Japeth) – The Caucasus, Turkey, Black Sea (also East and West), it was the bull. You find artifact Bulls in silver, copper, bronze and other materials. The Hamites created a half-man/half-bull symbol which they called Baal. Time of origination dates to circa 3000 BCE in Lebanon at what is now the place known as Baalbek (megalithic platform structure). As for the Arabs from the grassy central plain of Arabia, over time they migrated and founded Medina. They would have been Baal worshippers. Medina was founded near Mecca which was a thriving trade center for agriculture, minerals, frankensense everything coming up from Yemen.
EMERGENCE OF ISLAM
Mohammed’s wife (Khadija) inherited the camel train cartage business when her husband died, but could not keep it unless she had a husband for legal ownership purposes. (LIKE IN KORAN) She found an idiot teenager who could not read or write, and that was Mohammed. When she died, the other relatives gave Mohammed money and they took over the business. Mohammed travels with them. Near Ebla, Syria (Modern Syria), the rich idiot Mohammed teams up with Syrian mercenaries. The cult of domination – Submit or Die – Slavery of Women, begins there. They call him their prophet and use him. Between Midian and Syria, along the road east of the Dead Sea/Jordan Valley, that’s where Mohammed has epiphany in a cave. Later they settle in Medina/Mecca.
SOURCES ON MOHAMMED: University of Chicago, Oriental Institute, Oxford in Britain (Syrian, Egyptian, Coptic, Middle Eastern, Yemeni, Ethiopian articles – English Translations)
TO STUDY THE ANCIENT CULT-RELIGION OF BAAL EXPLAINS the divergence of Islam from Judaism and the adoption of dominating, killing, lying cheating and other anti-civilization aspects. Throughout the entire ancient world, the bull which was the machine-tractor of the ancient world was depicted and revered but only worshipped by Hamites (Assyrian, Canaanites, Southern Egyptians) Baal is recorded as the God of War/Violence/Storms/Domination. These are the root aspects that were worshipped in Medina, and when Medina conquered Mecca (which worshipped the God of Israel, as all Shemites/Midianites would), they supplanted those things into the new religion – Islam.
