A Somali-born 19 year old man named Mohamed Osman Mohamud was arrested on Friday after attempting to set off a bomb at a Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Portland, Oregon. The attack was actually a set-up by the FBI. He had communicated with Federal agents in constructing the explosive, which ended up being a fake. The White House spokesman says that President Obama was aware of the attack. When Mohamud attempted to dial his cell phone for the bomb to explode, Federal agents arrested him. Mohamud repeatedly screamed "Allahu Akbar!" as he was taken into custody. How long will Mohamud go to jail for? Are there other Muslim terrorists connected with him? Carl Cannon, the editor of politicsdaily.com wrote a blog post about the root causes of this attack. I agree with his contention that Muhamud's attack originated with Somali radicalism.

I'm glad that no one was hurt, and that the bombing was stopped. I'm surprised that FBI and Obama were aware of the attack before. I just hope that incident like 9/11 doesn't occur again, and that people live with no fear.
