Would have loved to see that coward freak as the plane came off the runway. Would have loved to see the inflight video as he started sweating.

That's not the audio when they took him off.

They called the plane back after they had already removed Faisal Shahzad at the gate. They called the plane back to question 2 others in connection but they were released after being questioned.

Yep.

Saw it on Headline News tonight.

They were survailing the suspect to see if he made contact with anybody else. Once they were sure that he was acting alone, they moved in for the arrest. The 2 people of interest that caused the aircraft to return to the gate were released after they were questioned.

What's the good of having a "No Fly" List if people like that who have made several recent trips to Pakistan are not listed? How many innocents are on these lists? Makes no sense.

He wasn't put on the "No Fly" list because he made several trips to Pakistan. How many innocents would be on the list if that was a criteria.

He was put on the list at 13:00 hours. The airline did not check the no fly list as they should and used the previous days' list. Expect the airline to get a regulatory fine for that. TSA is enforcing the rule the airlines have to check for updates to the list like they wanted to do in the first place but the airlines complained.
