Al-Qaida Link In Failed Plane Attack

Flight 253 with 278 passengers and 11 crew members, on it's way to Detroit, experienced an attempted terrorist attack to explode a plane. The man, who was subdued by at least one passenger, was identified by authorities as Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab. He is a Nigerian man who has said to be under orders of al-Qaida.

The people on the plane were traveling for about 20 minutes when, a popping noise was heard and smoke was observed. That is when a man crawled over to him to restrain him.

I cannot believe that there are people in this country that don't believe terrorism is a threat to this country.
