UPDATES CONSTANTLY - Terrible, Mean, Ignorant Infidels Arrest Young Innocent Muslim Boy Over Nothing But Making a "Clock" ... That Just So Happened to Look Like a Bomb - OBAMA INVITES THE LITTLE PRICK TO THE WHITE HOUSE

He Didn't Mean Anything By It

From Vox:

Ahmed Mohamed is a ninth-grader in Irving, Texas, who likes to tinker with electronics. On Monday, according to the Dallas Morning News, he built a simple electronic clock — a project he said took about 20 minutes — and strapped it inside a pencil case. 

He showed the project to his engineering teacher, who praised the design but advised him not to show it to other teachers. 

Later, in Ahmed's English class, the clock beeped while it was in his bag. When he showed the project to his teacher, she thought it looked like a bomb. 

He insisted that the clock wasn't a bomb, but the authorities at the school weren't impressed: The teacher kept the clock. 

When the principal and a police officer pulled Ahmed out of sixth period, he suspected he wouldn’t get it back. 

They led Ahmed into a room where four other police officers waited. 

He said an officer he’d never seen before leaned back in his chair and remarked: "Yup. That’s who I thought it was." 

Ahmed felt suddenly conscious of his brown skin and his name — one of the most common in the Muslim religion. 

But the police kept him busy with questions. 

"They were like, ‘So you tried to make a bomb?’" 

Ahmed said. "I told them no, I was trying to make a clock." 

"He said, ‘It looks like a movie bomb to me.’" 

According to the Dallas Morning News, the police arrested Ahmed and led him out of school in handcuffs. 

His school gave him a three-day suspension, and police are still investigating the incident.

The title of this post is making fun of Muslims and their endless victimhood narrative.

HOWEVER, let us be honest here: The three days suspension is asinine.

If the kid was trying to make a bomb he should be in jail, not on a three-day suspension.

And, if he was not trying to make a bomb, he should be in class learning along with his fellow students.

Truthfully, I would not be surprised if this was a carefully plotted out victimhood ploy; that the kid, advised by his parents and a radical Imam or two, may have decided he'd fuck with the Infidel's heads by making a clock that looked like a bomb, so that when the Infidels reacted, he could claim "racism" and "Islamophobia."

Note that, in the video, the kids says, "I closed it with a cable. Cuz I didn't want to to lock it, to make it seem like a threat, so I just used a simple cable, so it won''t look that much suspicious."

In other words, HE WAS FULLY COGNIZANT THAT HIS INVENTION LOOKED SUSPICIOUS.

And why would anyone think to lock a clock anyway? I mean, think about it.

Interesting, huh?

Fuck Islam, and Fuck Mohammed.

UPDATE - I have a feeling this is a story that's just going to keep giving.

CAIR IS IN ON THE ACT

From The Verge:

Mohamed Elhassan Mohamed, Ahmed's father, says his child suffered because of prejudice against Muslims. 

"Because his name is Mohamed and because of September 11th," Mohamed told The Dallas Morning News, "I think my son got mistreated." 

The Council on American-Islamic Relations is already investigating Ahmed's case, with Alia Salem, the director of the council's North Texas chapter, saying that it seemed "pretty egregious.

You gotta hand it to the Muslims. They really came up with a good one this time.

The more we protest, the more we look stupid and paranoid.

They really suckered us, didn't they?



UPDATE II - Just as I thought, this story is a story that keeps on giving.

THE "CLOCK"-MAKING KID'S FATHER IS AN ACTIVIST IMAM, HAVING BEEN INVOLVED IN THE TERRY JONES KORAN-BURNING CONTROVERSY

It turns out this kids father is, indeed, an activist Muslim who portrays himself as a "new-age" type Sufi Muslim. Sometimes he calls his take on Islam, "New Testament-style".

He has also run for President of Sudan.

The Taqiyya is strong with this one.

n fact, he is the Imam who played Defense Attorney when Koran-burning preacher Terry Jones put the Koran on trial:

When Florida pastor Terry Jones finally made good on the threat he'd been toying with in the press for months, to burn a Quran in his church, it set off days of deadly protests in Afghanistan. And while U.S. military officials and lawmakers work to undo the damage he caused, and President Obama condemns the book-burning, Jones is seeking retribution. 

There is a Dallas man involved in all of this: Sheik Mohamed Elhassan, who played defense attorney in Jones's mock trial and failed to sway the "court" at the Dove World Outreach Center. He's the man referred to in most news reports simply as "a Dallas imam." And he's not shying away from the controversy. 

He says he appreciates Jones giving him a forum to defend the Quran in terms of Sufism, a more mystical, new-age reading of the text. 

"I admire Terry Jones for doing that," he says. "From my heart, I feel very OK. But I have some people who don't like that from my Muslim brothers. I see their faces, they don't want me to go and talk. But this is my opinion. I'm not living in Sudan, or Saudi Arabia. I'm living in a free land," Elhassan says. 

Elhassan says he heard Jones's church was looking for someone to bring a legal defense of the Quran in their court, and was glad to be the one they picked."They put an ad on their channel: 'Whoever feels in himself he has the power to defend Quran is welcome,'" he recalls. "I was chosen by accident. It was not a setup, as other media said." 

Who said anything about a "Set-Up", Mohammed?

Oh, that's right: YOU DID!

Hmm.

Elhassan says he knew Jones had threatened to burn a Quran in the past, but understood that this time the church was simply holding a trial. "They said they were not going to do it," he says. 

"So I went there. But when they did burn the Quran, I was not there." He says Jones gave him and his family the opportunity to leave the church before the book met its sentence. 

Still, Elhassan says he didn't nearly get a fair shake in their trial, and he's looking to make it right. 

"It was far from fair. It was not fair," he says, "so now we are doing an appeal. I am looking for a brave priest like Terry Jones, because I am going to bring all the evidence that the Quran is not guilty." Today, he says, he's making calls to local churches in Dallas and Irving, hoping to find another pastor interested in church into a courtroom for the Quran.

Elhassan, who was born in Sudan, is no stranger to debate -- he ran against Sudanese President Omar Al-Bashir last year, and says he faced the same backlash he's hearing now from traditional Muslims who disagree with his "New Testament" view of the Quran. 

He says he has serious issues with the hardline, traditional readings of the text, and he's writing a book about his reading of the Koran -- with working titles like Jesus Among Us With the Quran, or The New Understanding of the Quran.

Well, there you go.

He's a Peaceful Imam, who combats with Terry Jones, can not abide to watch a Koran burned, and now has a son who is being defended against "Islamophobia" by none other than the Hamas-born CAIR.

Sounds plausible to me.

UPDATE III -

THE POLICE SAY THEY COULDN'T GET A STRAIGHT ANSWER OUT OF LITTLE AHMED MOHAMMED:

According to Irving police, Ahmed’s case contained a digital clock that the student had taken apart and rearranged. 

Police said the student had the briefcase in his English class, where he plugged it into an electrical outlet and it started to make noise. Ahmed told WFAA that his English teacher confiscated his case. 

A few hours later, the student said the principal and school resource officer pulled him out of class and questioned the high school freshman. 

Officers said Ahmed was being “passive aggressive” in his answers to their questions, and didn’t have a “reasonable answer” as to what he was doing with the case. Investigators said the student told them that it was just a clock that he was messing around with. 

“We attempted to question the juvenile about what it was and he would simply only say it was a clock. He didn’t offer any explanation as to what it was for, why he created this device, why he brought it to school,” said James McLellan, Irving Police.

AND THEN THERE'S THIS:

“If the family is willing to give us written permission, we would be happy to share with the public the other side of the story so they can understand the actions we took,” Irving Independent School District spokeswoman Lesley Weaver said. 

So, what's the next step after a kid has bamboozled the entire Administrative staff at his High School?

Why naturally, the President of the United States invites him to the White House:

OBAMA INVITES THE LITTLE PRICK TO THE WHITE HOUSE

Oh, and by the way, HERE'S A PICTURE OF AHMED'S "CLOCK":

A commenter named Tall Dave summed this up well:

OK here are the major problems with this story: 

1) Most important, he was arrested because he was not forthcoming. We cannot see the interview because the boy's parents have not agreed to release it. 

2) Next most important: he did NOT build a clock. He disassembled a store-bought clock and mounted it in a briefcase. Why would anyone do that? Well, it's a nice way to make a bomb, or a hoax bomb with big LED numbers. Or maybe he was trying to corner the burgeoning market in briefcase clocks? Ha. 

3) Too convenient: dad is a high-profile Islamic apologist (debated the Koran burner, Terry Jones). Sisters are openly high-fiving over the media frenzy. CAIR is all over this. These are not people trying to quietly live their lives.

UPDATE IV -

AHMED MOHAMMED SAYS ENGLISH TEACHER DIDN'T TAKE THE "CLOCK" FROM HIM WHEN IT BEEPED DURING CLASS, INSTEAD SHE FINALLY TOOK IT HE SHOWED IT TO HER AFTER CLASS 

Almost as if he was ASKING HER TO TAKE IT FROM HIM (Washington Post article ‘They thought it was a bomb': 9th-grader arrested after bringing a home-built clock to school: :

Fourteen-year-old Ahmed Mohamed just wanted to get noticed by his teachers. Instead, he got arrested. Mohamed, a self-assured kid with thick-framed glasses and a serious expression, had just started at MacArthur High School a few weeks ago. 

The Irving, Tex., ninth-grader has a talent for tinkering — he constructs his own radios and once built a Bluetooth speaker as a gift for his friend — and he wanted to show his new teachers what he could do. 

So on Sunday night, he quickly put together a homemade digital clock (“just something small,” as he casually put it to the Dallas Morning News: a circuit board and power supply connected to a digital display) and proudly offered it to his engineering teacher the next day. 

But the teacher looked wary. “He was like, ‘That’s really nice,’” Mohamed told the Dallas Morning News. “‘I would advise you not to show any other teachers.’” 

During English class, the clock beeped, annoying his teacher. 

When he brought the device up to her afterward, she told him “it looks like a bomb,” according to Mohamed. 

“I told her, ‘It doesn’t look like a bomb to me,'” he told the Dallas Morning News. 

But the English teacher kept the clock, and during sixth period, Mohamed was pulled out of class by the principal.

So, all of that, that's all Ahmed Mohammed's story, as filtered through CAIR.

Now, WHAT DO THE POLICE HAVE TO SAY?

Irving Police Officer James McLellan told the TV station that school officials were worried about the device. 

“Clearly, there were disassembled clock parts in there, but he offered no more explanation than that,” McLellan said. 

“A lot of these details that the family and he have provided to you were not shared with us yesterday. He was very much less than forthcoming.”

This was a "clock" made out of disassembled clock parts?

Go back to the video at the top of this story, and you will hear Ahmed Mohammed say it was his "invention."

He invented a clock that he took apart and put back together?

What?

And now, let's return to something else the Police had  to say.

THIS:

“If the family is willing to give us written permission, we would be happy to share with the public the other side of the story so they can understand the actions we took,” Irving Independent School District spokeswoman Lesley Weaver said. 

UPDATE V:

The school day just prior to Ahmed's stunt was Friday, September 11, when a nearby high school in Plano was the subject of a publicized and frightening bomb scare. Ahmed had to have known that his clock would look suspicious.
