Federal authorities arrested a 19-year-old Jordanian citizen whom they said placed an inactive car bomb today at Fountain Place, a 60-story skyscraper in downtown Dallas.

Well, if they could encourage him to do it and gave him a fake bomb which he tried to detonate, I guess a real group of crazies could have just as easily encouraged him to do it and supplied him with a real bomb to detonate.

The guy was too gutless to even be a suicide bomber, he was going to detonate the bomb remotely. How're you going to get your 72 virgins if you don't blow yourself up?

I hope he has fun at Gitmo! I hear the weather's fantastic this time of year.

I'd also be ok just putting him in general population in Huntsville. He wouldn't last a day, so maybe that's the best solution.

Perhaps he liked cougars.
