Anatomy of The Fed Ex UPS Bomb Plot from Yemen

Internet Anthropologist h/t Jawa:

From a source inside the Beltway we have found reliable before.G

EXCLUSIVE: EXCLUSIVE:

It seems that the UPS/FEDEX attack has historical roots and much more sinister tactics than have been disclosed.

The address names on the UPS and FEDEX package were Pierre l'Ermite and Diego Gelmírez and the street address was that of only one synagogue in Chicago. Whom are they?

Pierre l'Ermite, is AKA Peter the Hermit, 1050-1115, a French monk. In 1095 he instigated the First Crusade. With help from the Byzantine emperor Alexius I he and his irregular band took Jerusalem.

Diego Gelmírez of Santiago de Compostela conceived of a N African invasion route intending to unite the reconquest of Spain (from Muslims) with the Crusades to the Holy Land, forming a single Mediterranean-wide crusading theatre. He was one of the most famous Spanish monk-warriors leading the expulsion of Muslims from Spain.

Why a package on two different carriers? To increase the chance of success in case one was discovered, and, to double the potential effect of a tactic that would likely be closed off after the attack.

There were three layers of detonation.

SIM card Nokia phones were programmed to answer a call and detonate. With both packages sent simultaneously by different carriers, they would arrive in the skies over Chicago on two different planes. Knowing the packages "tracking number" and with online, easy access to arrival times, it would be easy for a caller to keep calling the detonator phone while the two planes flew into Chicago, hoping to down them over the city, causing great destruction below.

They knew approximately when the onboard package-carrying planes would be landing. By simple calculation, the plotters walked that time backward to the final approach time over Chicago and programmed/wired the phones to detonate using the alarm clock feature.

Finally, if both of those methods failed, detonation would occur at the delivery site, a Jewish synagogue, as soon as the printer was plugged in. ( We reported this feature form our Paradign Intel, G )

No way to stop the attack, no exposure to operatives, no hijackers needed, brilliant and efficient tactics, low cost with massive results. The attack would be thought of as an accident until the second plane blew up, allowing operatives to escape.

Obviously we have a highly capable, educated and thinking enemy. The Jihadists are highly aware of their place in history and seek muslim hero status. The current media portrayal of inept amateurs, driven by our government sources is, to say the least, highly underspoken.

We fail to understand the historical context and haven't even developed a data base of historic enemies of Islam that could be cross checked against passenger lists and shippers. How could we not have an overwatch that sounds alarms when anything is sent from Yemen to any synagogue in the US?

Clearly the Jihadist are much more nimble and creative than we are. We continue to be unable to put ourselves into the minds of Jihadists and we remain reactive rather than proactive. This attack could have worked, attack by proxy. We can't keep counting on luck or self-serving allies to save us.

Quoting your question: ". . .How could we not have an overwatch that sounds alarms when anything is sent from Yemen to any synagogue in the US?. . ."

Now that they've tested the system, what makes anyone think this problem is limited to shipments from Yemen? The same could take place with a package mailed from the Dearborn, or DC, or the little post office in upstate NY, what's it called, Hancock - serving Islamberg?
And where do you think this crop of fanatics have been getting their education? Any doubt the next generation of devout lunatics is here taking advantage of our campuses/academic/political/NGO bleeding hearts?

Ever get the feeling there is no safe haven from Mo's brand of peace anymore.

Only one problem: Except for the unfortunate FEDEX flight in Dubai, the only thing that has crashed and burned so far is this oh-so-sophisticated plot.

For starters, while no one along the shipping route was likely to pick up on the esoteric names in the address, we can assume that anyone in a position to be receiving and setting up a printer at that synagogue would a) wonder who the hell Pierre l'Ermite and Diego Gelmirez were since no one with those names worked there, b) wondered what was the deal with the French and Spanish names, c) checked out the postmark: "Yemen?!?", and d) have had the sense not to plug in an electrical device mailed to two little men who weren't there from somebody in Yemen. Aside from that, it's brilliant.

There big problem is that the detonations didn't work, though one was stopped with only 17 minutes to spare.

I just love the thought of these clowns with their headtowels and sandals and nightshirts and dirty butts (unless they've accepted haram kuffar plumbing and toilet procedures) grandiosly referencing the Crusades, because hey, we Sons of the Desert have to get revenge for that and show the kuffar the glories of Islamic scholarship.
