"Some people" almost "did something" again

"Oh, and Alani's phone also had a news story about a plane crash in Indonesia last year, with specific information about the plane's airspeed control system. The same thing he was caught tampering with." Jim Treacher

An ISIS aircraft mechanic caught trying to disable the same system that brought down two other 737s?  "They're still out there.


"And it was quite disturbing to learn that, contrary to what the press had so smarmily assured us about a supposedly disgruntled aircraft mechanic who got caught trying to disable a Boeing 737, the guy had ISIS video on his cell phone.
" 'American Airlines Mechanic Accused of Plane Sabotage May Have Ties to Terrorists, U.S. Says," the New York Times headline reported.
"Up until now, the press had been assuring us that the whole thing was a labor issue, citing officials.  According to the New York Times:" . . .
. . . 
"Doesn't everyone with labor beefs against his boss have ISIS video murders on his cell phone?
"As Jim Treacher (hat tip: Ed Driscoll at Instapundit) notes, "Weird Coincidence."
"It's all but certain that mechanic-from-hell Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani might just have been motivated by ISIS's brand of Islamism, not a woikin' man's desire for more overtime.
"The gullible media reported it otherwise, always eager to look the other way on Islamist 
terror." . . .

Some Guy Did Something – Judge Denies Bail for Sketchy Airline Mechanic Caught Tampering With 
GPS…  "After disclosing his prayers of death for the infidels; and after telling investigators he was acting on behalf of his “evil side”; and after finding out his brother is a member of ISIS in Iraq; and after finding pro-ISIS propaganda videos on his cell phone celebrating ISIS mass murders, which he shared with friends and family; well, U.S. justice officials and the FBI now suspect a more “disturbing” motive behind airline employee Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani who was caught tampering with the American Airline GPS system.

"Gee, ya think?"

. . . "However, Alani had been fired from Alaska Airlines in 2008 over several maintenance mistakes, some that led to Federal Aviation Administration investigations, according to court documents from his unsuccessful discrimination lawsuit that Business Insider obtained.
"Alani was fired after the incident and the Federal Aviation Administration revoked his aircraft mechanic certificate.
"He is expected to enter a plea Friday on charges of willfully damaging, destroying or disabling an aircraft." . . .
