ABC News: Photo of Failed Bomber’s Potentially Explosive Underwear

abc_a_PETN_underwear_091228_mn.jpg

ABC News has posted this photo of the potentially explosive underwear worn by alleged Northwest 253 bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab. As is well-known by now, it failed to go off, otherwise it could have been the first catastrophic crotch crash. The troubling thought: a harbinger of future air catastrophes? Meanwhile, from now on if a guy in a pickup bar says he has dynamite between his legs it’ll mean it’s time to call security.

Meanwhile, Al Qaeda’s Yemen affiliate is taking credit for the bombing attempt.

    Apparently skid marks and the lack of Clorox is the norm in Nigeria.

    Do not disrespect a whole country just because of the actions of one demented individual. It shows ignorance.

    It was meant to be ignorant. Until the rest of the world stops disrespecting the people of the United States based upon their own preconceived notions, I'll not be apologetic. I thought it was funny. If you didn't, that's fine. But then your sensitivities are too fragile.
