Muslim Terrorist female bomber plot, thwarted on the highways of Dallas/Ft. Worth

From Eric Dondero:

Radical Islamic watchers may recall this incident from 2007 at a Dallas/Ft. Worth airport. From the Dallas Morning News, April 5, 2007:

Dallas police and federal terrorism officials are investigating two women, both dressed in camouflage pants under their traditional Muslim robes and scarves, who were seen conducting what appeared to be surveillance and acting suspiciously at Dallas Love Field.

One of the women, Kimberly "Asma" Al-Homsi, 42, of Arlington, who is on probation for a 2005 Garland road rage incident involving a fake grenade, is said to have long-range assault rifle and explosives training, according to a Dallas police intelligence bulletin issued March 5.

Feds knew of her radical intentions but didn't act

Now, this breaking news...

Asma Al-Homsi has been involved in yet another incident, this time involving live explosives.

From WFAA-TV, Dallas/Ft. Worth:

Southeast Loop 820 and East Rosedale Street in Fort Worth were reopened early Sunday morning after being shut down for five hours overnight.

The Fort Worth bomb squad detonated four charges that were found in a pickup truck that spun out following a police pursuit.

Two people are in custody, and one of them is well-known to police.

It all started in Arlington as a road rage incident in the 1000 block of West Abrams Street.

"Someone called to say that there was a person in another vehicle that pointed a weapon at them," said Arlington police spokeswoman Tiara Ellis Richard

The chase continued for 20 minutes. It came to an end when the truck spun out on Rosedale.

Officers took two people into custody: Kimberly Homsi — who is also known as Asma Al-Homsi — and Yasinul Alan Ansari.

News 8 has learned that Al-Homsi has been under government surveillance and was on the federal "no-fly" list after being involved in a road rage incident in December, 2005.

Al-Homsi linked to Al Qaeda

Now even more information is coming out from the Dallas Morning News:

Al-Homsi has also claimed a friendship with Wadih el Hage, a former Arlington resident and former personal secretary of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. He received a life sentence for his part in a bombing conspiracy.

And the name of the second suspect has been released:

Al-Homsi, 45, and Yasinul Alan Ansari, 18, both remain in the Arlington city jail. Bail has been set at $210,000 for Al-Homsi and $100,000 for Ansari.

DMN goes on to describe Al-Homsi as "bumbling," and has a new somewhat frightening mugshot of her with her head shaved. Al-Homsi is claiming that she is being discriminated against, because "of stereotypes about her religion."

Since the incidents occured late Saturday night, outside of metro Dallas/Ft. Worth there's been little if any coverage by the national media.
