Ethiopian-Born Man Arrested With Nuclear Info At Detroit Metro Airport

... and $78,000 in cash:


A 34-year-old Dallas man was arrested at Detroit Metro Airport on Tuesday, carrying $78,883 in cash and a laptop computer containing mysterious files about cyanide and nuclear materials.

Authorities said Sisayehiticha Dinssa, a U.S. citizen who was born in Ethiopia, was arrested after getting off an airline flight from Amsterdam. They said he had spent four months in Nigeria on unspecified business.


When agents asked him whether he had any cash to declare, he said he had $18,000, authorities said. But when agents checked his luggage, they found an additional $60,883. When they scrolled through his laptop, they said they found the mysterious files. Dinssa told agents he was interested in learning about cyanide and nuclear materials.


You know, he was just generally interested in cyanide and nuclear materials. No big deal. Oh yeah, and the 78 grand? Pocket change.

And, just because he spent four months in Nigeria, home of some of the world's biggest uranium mines, doesn't mean we have anything to worry about.

And just thank about this.. One of America's major cities may have just been saved by a dog !!

Just for that, I thank I'll give my dog, Miss Minnie Pearl, an extra treat tonight !!

I guess they will try to replace them with "virtual" dogs now, like they are gonna replace the Border Barrier with a "virtual" fence !!

How bout we just elect some "virtual" politicians ??

Too bad we can't waterboard him. I mean I'd really hate to violate the rights of someone plotting to nuke us. That'd be so un-democratic of us.

Put this guy in a room with Lynndie England, a German Shepherd, a car battery, some wires and a potato sack and lock the door. I suspect he'll be gabbing pretty fast about why he's travelling with nearly 80K and a laptop full of how-to-nuke the kafir diagrams.
