NJ Man Scouted Landmarks For Potential Hezballah Terror Attacks

Foreign terrorist scum are the best of all Americans.

A New Jersey man served as a US-based operative for Hezbollah's terrorism-planning wing for years, scouting landmarks like the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building for possible attacks, a federal grand jury has alleged.

Alexei Saab, a 42-year-old Lebanon native and naturalized US citizen, was charged in an indictment Thursday with nine offenses, which include providing material support to Hezbollah, the US Justice Department said.

Saab, of Morristown, is in federal custody, awaiting trial in federal court in New York. He was arrested July 9.

He is at least the third American charged since 2017 with being an agent for Hezbollah, an Iranian-linked, Lebanon-rooted Shia Islamic group considered a terrorist organization by the United States.

The Conservative Case for Alexi Saab.

104 Wokemart to stop selling e-cigarettes
https://t.co/sMJbNPNgTk

SJWalmart announced Friday it will stop selling e-cigarettes as federal and state governments crack down on the vaping industry.

"Given the growing federal, state and local regulatory complexity and uncertainty regarding e-cigarettes, we plan to discontinue the sale of electronic nicotine delivery products at all SJWalmart and Sam's Club U.S. locations," a SJWalmart spokesperson said Friday.

"We will complete our exit after selling through current inventory."

Thanks Prez Bush, for reminding US on 9/12/01 that WE are the real haters. Now that we have jihadists being elected to the house, we finally have a Muslim to remind us how terrible we are as a nation, since the Dems calling us deplorable was not enough. thanks a bunch.

That entry on his page reads: "Microsoft Consulting Services (MCS): Managed a team of 20+ developers for the development and delivery of new releases of NYPD's Domain Awareness System (DAS), including integration with external systems and migration of legacy systems and databases. Responsibilities included, design and technical oversight, managing development activities, risk mitigation, client coordination, UAT and deployment planning, resource management, forecast, budgeting, and process improvement."

He wrote that he worked for a company called Accela in the past and his responsibilities included management of delivery and implementation of Accela Civic Platform for large and strategic clients (State and local government), New York City's dept. of Buildings, States of Massachusetts and Michigan.

Absinthe is just nasty tasting, not dangerous or hallucinogenic.

Modern elevators have multiple failsafes. They have electromagnetic brakes that require energy input to open. If they lose power, they clamp.

They have gravity brakes.

They have a fall dampener at the bottom.

If the only thing that saved her was the air cushion, it was a rattletrap old elevator and someone needs to investigate the elevator inspection team for not doing their job.

its more of a convulsant.

I have put wormwood (as a flavoring agent) in beer that I have brewed. It doesn't make you hallucinate. I mean the beer itself is like 12 -13% abv and your face is numb after 10 ounces, but that's a feature not a bug, and probably has nothing to do with the wormwood.

Its not really drinkable for the first 6 mos. It has to spend a lot of time in the bottle before the harshness mellows out.

By all accounts, the cigarettes do reduce appetite. Lucky brand used to use the ad slogan, "Reach For a Lucky Instead of a Sweet," hyping the anti-hunger craving effect of their cigarettes.

Even if everything they say is true, the President CAN say whatever the hell he wants on a Phone call, even making a promise to a foreign leader.

Camels were also used for freighting in British Columbia during the Cariboo gold rush of 1858, with the same result of spooking the horses. And I think some of those camels came from the herd dispersed in Arizona.

I really don't get it. If I ran any business that had any physical contact with or access to aircraft, I'd fill my AA quotas with hundreds of unnecessary black janitors before I allowed a single Muslim anywhere near my operation.

Insanity.

I remember a few years ago while I was in the car hearing Obama wax poetic about the contributions of Muslim-Americans, who have been hear since "Colonial" Times. My blood pressure shot up.

Total Bullshit. There were few here--mostly diplomats and business men--until the 1970's.

Yes it contains propylene glycol. Also known as "medicine".

"Propylene glycol (CH8O2) is a commonly used drug solubilizer in topical,
oral, and injectable medications. It is used as stabilizer for
vitamins, and as a water-miscible cosolvent"
Posted by: Brian in New Orleans at September 20, 2019 03:21 PM (CQ3Qb)


FWIW, just searched FDA database for approved inactive ingredients and both propylene glycol and glycerin are listed for use in respiratory and nasal spray medicines. Probably as filler, fluff, and carrier for the active ingredients.

So the whole e-cig shiite is a hoax unless they pull back all the Rx shit too.

346 So the 'whistleblower' eavesdropped on a Presidential phone call, did not agree with what he said, and gave that information to his enemies in Congress. That is NOT whistleblowing, that is blatant leaking for political reasons.

It turned out that the "non-fiction" "Roots" was fiction after all. Nothing wrong with that, historical fiction makes for great reading often, But we were all sold a hoax.

See also "Charlie Smith" who was not that old after all.
