A good question about why the "Dirty Bomber" was arrested from Rafe Colburn, via Rebecca's Pocket:
Call me crazy, but it seems to me that it's easy for al-Qaeda to find thugs willing to build a bomb and set it off, but it's hard for them to come up with the radioactive material needed to construct such a bomb. So why did we arrest al Mujahir (with no actual criminal charges to press against him) when we could have followed him around and seen who he was working with and perhaps where he was planning on obtaining the material he needed to build the bomb? I don't know the answer to the question, but I'd sure like to.
Me too.
