[sabra]

Source: CBS News

A photo obtained exclusively by CBS News shows the would-be Times Square bomber Faisal Shahzad with friends in Times Square, less than 100 yards from the spot where he abandoned an explosives-laden SUV Saturday.

The photo shows Faisal Shahzad standing on the far right with his wife, Huma Mian, and several other unidentified people. Sources tell CBS News the photo is believed to have been taken a year and a half to two years ago.

To date, most images of Shahzad have come from the Orkut.com social site, where his wife had a profile.

1. oh, gee, a 2.5 year old photo CBS?

I don't think the truck was parked there that long ..... :eyes:

[PSPS]

6. You're right. This is just more voyeristic infotainment. CBS sure ain't what it used to be.

[Myrina]

7. Seriously. My daughter was in Times Square in 2008 also ...

... for a high school orchestra trip. Does that mean she might be linked to a home-grown car bomber someday too because some news flunkie finds that pic on her Facebook page?

:wtf:

8. None of ourr sources of data/info are what they used to be.

2. I'm torn between two responses:

"Huh."

and

"So?"

:D

3. I think it's been shopped...

5. Explosive laden SUV?

What explosives? What WMD?

[Judi Lynn]

9. Absolutely shopped. No doubt about it! n/t

4. Horrendous Reporting by CBS News....

It went towards a downward spiral since Dan Rather left. It was a photo from 2008! with no relevancy to the attempted terrorist attack of 2010.

10. if the "Shoe Bomber" is a bomber then why is this guy a "would be"?

The MSM seldom backs away from hyperbole so why now? CBS calls this:

"the would-be Times Square bomber...(who) abandoned an explosives-laden SUV Saturday."

Hey CBS: It had a detonation system and the a-hole try to set it off. That is a car bomb by any definition.

Would CBS have us give this jhadist a parking ticket??

11. That night was so unenjoyable he resorted to a truck bomb to erase the memories?

:think:
