  1. #4 The bounty is a farce. It is a PR move for the Obama (DEMOCRAT) administration to say we are taking this seriously.

    If they had taken it seriously the attack would most likely not have happened as it did or when it did.

    Further, the FBI would already have questioned people and/or arrested them. The reporters were able to find the suspect but not the FBI. What does that tell you.

  2. Blue the FBI has no authority anyplace but the US, the Islamic nations always put conditions on letting the FBI in to investigate, conditions that prevent any real investigation, this is why people who live in the real world consider terrorist attacks to be acts of war. Never fall for the lie they are crimes that the police can solve, they are acts of war to destroy Western Civilization.

  3. Only overseas, the FBI is a US police force, it has no jurisdiction outside of the US just as Israeli police have no authority outside of Israel, why people think we should let the FBI handle things that happened in other countries has always puzzled me.

  4. The FBI do in fact operate internationally. In the 911 commission report it is claimed that the FBI arrested the Al-Qaeda bomb maker from the 93 WTC attack on his way to meet Bin Laden in Afghanistan while he was leaving his hotel in Pakistan. The fact is that it was the DSS who did the arrests but the FBI demanded credit for the arrests. (Fred Burton’s book, Ghost)

    In other cases the FBI indeed did to arrests of people wanted for terrorism within the US in foreign countries. I have wondered about it myself actually. I think they have to ask for permission from the country involved first.

  5. Wouldn’t Interpol – it’s databases – be able to connect domestic [internal] security forces?

  6. Yes they have to get permission from the local authorities, and to remain withing international law the locals have to do the arresting, in fact at times it is getting close to illegal behavior for the US authorities to go along with the locals on the arrest.

    Think about this and realize that no Moslem government that is close to the Brotherhood types will give the US people in their nations, or even question people for the US. In fact most Middle Eastern nations think we are stupid for sending the FBI to any investigation since they know they aren’t going to be able to do anything.The only nations that will help are the European nations and since Obama has been stabbing them in the back not all of them.

    Yucki it comes down to which nation will help and which are going to refuse to help in anyway.
