Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab PHOTOS: Northwest Flight 253 Terrorist Attack

Northwest Flight 253 Photos

A 23 year-old Nigerian man identified as Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab ignited a small explosive device  aboard the Northwest flight 253 from Amsterdam, Netherlands, right before landing at the Detroit Metro Airport in Michigan on Friday (December 25). This incident on an inbound international flight has been described as an attempted terrorist attack (photos below).

Cabin crew and a brave passenger named Jasper Schuringa subdued and isolated the suspected terrorist who was taken into custody and is currently being treated for second and third degree burns on his thighs due to the explosion of the small device in his lap.

Umar, who claims to have extremist ties and who initially flew into Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam from Lagos, Nigeria, said the explosive device “was acquired in Yemen along with instructions as to when it should be used.” The device was already sent to Quantico, Virginia, for analysis.

Despite his allegations, Umar is believed to be working alone since there was found no connection to organized terrorist groups. In fact, Umar’s father, Alhaji Umaru Mutallab, a Nigerian banker, who alerted US authorities to his son’s extreme religious views months ago, was shocked that his son was even allowed to fly to the US. Someone wasn’t paying attention!

      Many things are wrong, despite the fact that umar’s father notified the American authorities long enough before the ugly incident occurred yet it couldn’t be prevented.Firstly, it was a case of parental failure, then secondly negligence on the part of American government. All the same there is hope for the poor boy because he might have an encounter with Jesus Christ one day and become BORN AGAIN , that is my prayer.
