“A flight attendant for JetBlue Airways told the FBI he saw Alija Kucuk, 29, run down the aisle and push two other flight attendants out of the way.” Where was he going? What was he going to do?
Alija is a Bosnian Muslim name, a form of Ali, the name of Muhammad’s son in law, one of his earliest followers.
“FBI: Queens Man Punched Flight Attendant, Threatened To Blow Up Plane,” CBS New York, October 17, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — A Queens man has been charged after he allegedly punched a flight attendant and threatened to blow up the plane during a flight from New York City to South Florida.
A flight attendant for JetBlue Airways told the FBI he saw Alija Kucuk, 29, run down the aisle and push two other flight attendants out of the way.
The flight attendant said he tried to calm the man down, but then Kucuk pushed him into a door and punched him in the face.
According to an FBI report, Kucuk used verbal epithets and racial slurs and threatened to blow up the plane during the incident.
Kucuk, of Middle Village, was charged with interfering with a flight attendant and threatening to destroy an aircraft.

This barbarian deserves 25 years in jail with no parole.

Hands-on counseling works better… also known as wall-to-wall counseling.
Horse Mann says
How do you know he’s a librarian?
WatchingTheFall says
Where were the men on the flight, breast feeding their children and reading Woman’s Day?
Mark says
Don’t worry he was probably acting out a drama sketch. The flight attendant will be found to be “racist” and the guy will get a trip to the white house.

And the sad part is we have opened the gates.

And when the Serb Christian tried to defend THEIR gates from his kind, the United States of America massacred the Serbs.
Angemon says
Did no one warn him that the airplane was a “safe zone” where people aren’t allowed to bear arms or say things that might hurt the feelings of other people? sarc./ off
Seriously though – dry run?
Undaunted says
Dry runs are meant to give the actors a practice session and in doing so provide familiarity with how things are built and arranged at the attack site. Terrorists want to walk away from a dry run so they can commit the act they just practiced on another day, probably exactly a week later at about the same time to try to get a situation similar to their walk-through. Dry runs are committed by the people who will actually be involved in the attack.
Probes come first and are meant to see what will happen when an actor commits a certain act in a certain place at a certain time. Probes are usually not committed by the actual attackers because lots of times the probers are detained and questioned and finger-printed and photographed. Probes are often observed from a distance by the actual attackers so if the probers are arrested and cannot give the attackers necessary experiential detail, at least the attackers got to watch and take notes and videos.
But all that shit’s out the window.
An attack on an aircraft will be made by 12-15 men who will just suddenly get up and rush the cockpit. Having seen the doors now installed on AC, they’ll have a hell of a time getting in but they may have some sort of countermeasure with them to defeat the door. They will be ready to rock though they may not have edged weapons on them. They may however have smeared vaseline on their upper arms, necks, and ankles in order to be slippery and hard to control in a fight. If a lone actor starts misbehaving at the rear of the plane, don’t lose focus up front by the cockpit. The guy in the rear could be a diversion to draw all the would-be heroes to the tussle in the back while the attack group charges to the front.
However it goes up there, you have to fight. It’s not a probe. It’s not a dry run. It’s an attack and if you think otherwise you’ll sit there and wonder where the FAM is and who’s going to be the first passenger to ask that asshole to sit down and shut the fuck up.
Cecilia Ellis says
There are documented reports that some of the 9/11 hijackers actually did conduct dry-runs, taking similar flights to determine protocol of stewardesses, announcements, etc. Ramzi Yusef also conducted a dry-run for his Project Bokinko, a plot to blow up 12 American carriers at high altitude over the Pacific Ocean. His dry-run culminated in the death of a Japanese student who sat in the Yusef’s seat when Yusef vacated the flight at a stop prior to the flight continuing enroute Japan. The student was killed when the bomb exploded. Yusuf had put together a bomb, using Casio watches, in one of the plane’s restrooms. Upon exiting the restroom, Yusuf proceeded to his seat and placed the bomb under the seat in front of him. His purpose for this trial run was to see how much explosives would be required to take the plane down. (In fact, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, his uncle, wanted to fly one of the planes into the White House.) The 9/11 plot grew out of this plot.
Cecilia Ellis says
Should read “Project Bojinko.”
Enragedsince1999 says
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was a veteran of the US-backed jihad against the Serb Christians in Bosnia. And then he “thanked” his American aiders and abettors by masterminding the 9/11 attacks.
Joseph says
threatened to blow up the plane during a flight from New York City to South Florida.

During a flight.!!
Too bad they don’t have a special double airlock to let these type of people off the plane during a flight.
No refunds on the non-completed ticket either
somehistory says
Do you recall what used to happen with people who disagreed with the government of Argentina?
unclesamhain says
Thinking the same exact same t thing.
miriamrove says
Obviously there were no anti Jihadist like us on the plane. Had we been on that flight he would the s…kicked out of him. m
Darth Vader says
Where was the air marshal /
Undaunted says
Less than 5% of all flights have armed FAM on them. The odds favor the attacker(s) unless the passengers fight back.
Joseph says
Even police whom the airlines let carry their weapons on the plane often opt out because of the responsibility…….mostly because of liability.
Dan says
and this terrorist wasn’t tackled by the passengers….why? was he?
Peggy says
Would you tackle him and end up in jail yourself for insulting a Muslim?
Screeminmeeme says
1. Because people have short memories.
2. Because since 911, government/media apologists have beaten the drum of capitulation to Islamic supremacy.
3. Because people are like sheep being led to the slaughter.
Enragedsince1999 says
Unfortunately , the only thing the Americans are good for is murdering Serb Christians for trying to defend themselves from this jihadists’ fellow Bosnian Muslims.
Joseph says
Sure it’s not something else Glenn, like……..

So much for Homeland Security.

Oh; I know, I know.
Muslims are allowed on planes in order to help us be fearless… unerschrocken.

Cool punch, Alija. Want to bring it to the White House?
More Ham Ed says
Alija Kucuk, 29, will get an invitation from the whitehouse, and gifts from facecrap and microsloth. He should have been carrying a dismantled radio shaft clock with him, then he’d get a free pass.
Peggy says
First Albanians involved in terrorist attacks on US soil and the media wondering why would the very people who they helped steal a part of Serbia do that and now a Bosnian Muslim practicing for an attack. The media will again be wondering why.
Only one answser and that is THEY ARE MUSLIMS. It’s time everyone understood who Muslims are.
I remember watching a video on youtube of an American anchor asking why would Albanians attack them. He asked “weren’t we on their side?” Yes you were but you were used.
Scot Fourowls says
Defensive intelligence and preparedness against terrorism, yes, real-world concerns that deserve good solutions of protection! And then there’s the spiritual side of the equation, which weighs on my heart tonight.
Such searing pain in the religion of Islam, among the practitioners who disavow the joy of music (how sad!), harshly follow a harshly inconsistent Allah, and project outward the infliction of their pain by terrorizing others who believe differently.
Anybody of any religion or none of course can become a terrorist, yet jihadist Islam so sadly carries the recipe for terror within the pages of its supposedly holy writ, the worst breeding ground of religious pain available on the planet in the 21st century.
All of that said, I hope others will join me in praying for the conversion of Muslims away from their harshness and pain. They could use a better understanding of Jesus and the compassion of Christ to heal them, and because the Koran references Jesus, I’ve heard anecdotally that some Muslims have had mystical conversion experiences as a result of Christian missionaries praying in the mission field for them.
Here’s my prayer for any Muslim who might be reading Jihad Watch tonight, excerpted from the hymn globally beloved by countless Christians — Victory in Jesus, by Eugene M. Bartlett, Sr., written in 1939 on the eve of WWI when he’d been paralyzed by a stroke only to be inspired by the divine love of Christ to write these words:
“I heard an old, old story
How a Savior came from glory…
I heard about His healing,
Of His cleansing power revealing.
How He made the lame to walk again
And caused the blind to see;
And then I cried, ‘Dear Jesus,
Come and heal my broken spirit,’
And somehow Jesus came and brought
To me the victory.
O victory in Jesus,
My Savior, forever …
He loved me ere I knew Him. …
And some sweet day I’ll sing up there
The song of victory.”

John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 4:13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
John 11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
Acts 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

WWII above/corrected.
With the global risks today greater than on the brink of WWII, our best defense may be prayer, and the assurance of our eternal home.

Don’t flights have a security person on board or has that been stopped because it might “offend” someone?

Dear lazy and clueless media: Yes, it DOES matter what belief system various perpetrators of violence claim to follow. You are learning this way too late in the game.
Lenny Thetruth says
All of this acting out is intentionally done just to bring Muslims into the news. The point is, every time one does something, it is reported. We report on this behavior several times a day. They expect that one day, we will get tired of hearing it, and block it from our minds. It becomes passe. We can’t let it get to that.
Ahmet the clock maker actually did very little, except what we know, and got a celebrity trip to the White House. Why? He didn’t do anything exceptionally good for anybody, but it shows the authorities to back off on Islam. They are trying to say Islam is a religion, and therefore, constitutionally, back off. Only it is not a “good” religion, in that it sows only evil for non-believers. All the others practice tolerance. Islam misses that criteria. Shame on Obama for trying to normalize irrational actions.
Myxlplik says
I seem to remember, before Billy started funneling Iranian weapons and Sunni Jihadis into Bosnia (which by the way caused the situation to go to Hell in a hand basket), Ratco Mladic sent America a warning about what is happening now, in the spirit of friendship and cooperation.
It appears Alija and others like him are our problem now… too bad we didn’t listen, but how did Siddhartha put it? The wisdom of the wise, will always sound like gibberish to the fool, or something like that ;).
We should listen to Eastern Europeans, they know a thing or two about this.
