BOOM: Man Blows Bomb-Clock Story Wide Open With Video That Proves Entire Thing Was Faked

http://conservativetribune.com/man-blow ... ock-story/ <>: Video at link

Since Ahmed Bomb-Clock Mohamed first became news almost two weeks ago, the media has portrayed the Muslim student as the second coming of Nikola Tesla, an unrecognized young genius stymied by Islamophobia.

However, as is so often the case, once the facts came out a more nuanced view began to emerge, one in which Mohamed’s clock may have been a deliberate provocation for attention. Especially given the look of the device, which imitated a bomb, and his father’s involvement with Muslim civil rights groups, suspicions about Mohamed’s motivations began to grow.

Now comes definitive proof that Mohamed’s clock wasn’t an invention at all: a man in a video assembling a duplicate of the infamous device in the space of 18 seconds. Take a look:

Yep, that’s all Mohamed’s device was: a simple LED clock ripped apart, put inside a pencil case and made to look like a bomb. Nothing suspicious there, nosiree.

Suspicions have also mounted after the mayor of the Texas city where Mohamed attends school told Glenn Beck that the parents wouldn’t allow the full records to be released to explain the police’s actions and said they were more interested in press than in meeting with the city.

The (Irving) school district, a number of times, has asked the family to release the records, so that you can have the balanced story out there, Irving Mayor Beth Van Duyne said.

The family is ignoring the request from the ISD, she said, adding that Mohamed was passive-aggressive and non-responsive during the police interview.

We had tried to reach out to the family a number of times. This was before it ever even hit the papers on Wednesday, Van Duyne added.At the exact same time they were supposed to be meeting with us, they were on their front lawn with a press conference.

So, let’s get this straight. A kid with a parent who is heavily involved in Muslim civil rights puts together a device any moron could put together in under a minute, makes it look like a bomb, gets arrested and is then hailed as a genius inventor?

I smell a set-up. Video Shows Bomb-Clock Was Faked

Eyman Mohamed, the 17-year-old sister of Ahmed Mohamed, told the Daily Beast Sept. 17, 2015, that she, too, was suspended from school for a “bomb”-related accusation.

The 17-year-old sister of Muslim “clock boy” Ahmed Mohamed says she too was suspended from school due to a “bomb”-related accusation.

Eyman Mohamed told the Daily Beast during a day-long interview with the family Sept. 17 about an incident where she was accused of wanting to blow up her school.

“I got suspended from school for three days from this stupid same district, from this girl saying I wanted to blow up the school, something I had nothing to do with,” Mohamed told the Daily Beast. “I got suspended and I didn’t do anything about it. And so, when I heard about Ahmed, I was so mad because it happened to me and I didn’t get to stand up, so I’m making sure he’s standing up because it’s not right. So I’m not jealous. I’m kinda like – it’s like he’s standing for me.”

The young girl said her suspension did not take place at MacArthur High School in Irving, Texas. Instead, her punishment came during her first year of middle school when the family moved to the state from New York City.

“I knew English, but the culture was different, the people were different,” Mohamed told the Daily Beast.

The 17-year-old’s claim continues a string of strange developments surrounding the Sept. 14 detention of her 14-year-old brother when a clock he “invented” was suspected of being a bomb.

“House of War: Islam’s Jihad Against the World” conveys what the West needs to know about Islam and the violent, expansionary ideology that seeks the subjugation and destruction of other faiths, cultures and systems of government

NBA owner Mark Cuban of the Dallas Mavericks told HBO “Real Time” host Bill Maher last Friday he spoke to Ahmed on the phone but was puzzled as to why his sister kept trying to feed him answers.

“We talked about science, but while I’m talking to him on the phone, as I ask him a question, ‘Tell me what happened because I’m curious.’ Right? His sister, over his shoulder, you could hear, listening to the question, giving him the answer,” Cuban said, the Dallas Morning News reported Wednesday.

Electronics expert Thomas Talbot also posted a video Sept. 18 on the fraudulent nature of Mohamed’s so-called “invention,” arguing that the device was not an invention at all.

Talbot said the boy appears to have simply ripped out existing components from a standard digital alarm clock. After removing the plastic cover, he said, Mohamed attached the internal components to the inside of a suitcase, WND reported.

“This child, nothing against him personally, never built a clock,” said Talbot, WND reported. “He did not invent a clock or build it, and I’m going to show you why. … What this is is a commercial alarm clock, as you would purchase in any department store and use at your bedside. All he did was remove the plastic case from the alarm clock. This is not an invention. This is not something that someone built or even assembled.”

Mohamed’s ordeal prompted President Obama to invite the teenager to the White House.

“Cool clock, Ahmed. Want to bring it to the White House? We should inspire more kids like you to like science. It’s what makes America great,” tweeted Obama Sept. 16.

I have met Beth Van Duyne, the Mayor of Irving. She gained notoriety last year when she became the first (and only) government official in the world to OUTLAW Sharia courts in her city.

Not sure why I didn't smell this one out in advance. It's typical of the lying propaganda that we've seen from Obama since way before he was elected.

Like this one: The leader of "Black Lives Matter" has been having meetings with Obama and Valerie Jarret since about the same time they started having secret meetings with Sharpton. As I've pointed out soooooo many times before, they have intentionally been staging events to start racial tension, and then managing the riots with our tax dollars.

Yet, there are still ignorant naive people who think these folks are honorable, and have a shred of credibility to lecture the rest of America.

It's not hard to tell t his is a hoax if you simply take a close look at the thing. How many people, tinkering at home, have the capability to create printed circuit boards? Why would a home built "clock" have a ribbon cable connecting two circuit boards? Why bother to have a battery backup? And if you actually wanted to build a clock it would seem to me a case of this type that you have to open like a briefcase wouldn't be the best way to encase it. Transformer lying out in the open...any idiot should know you don't want a 110V transformer lying out in the wide open where you would be very likely to put your hands all over it trying to set the thing. Why would it need a 12/24 hour switch for a simple home project? You can even see the dirty spots on the ribbon cable from age.

I've also seen reports that Obama tweeted this kid before the picture was even released to the news. This is a 1980's Radio Shack Micronta digital clock removed from the case and put inside another container. You can see the printed circuit, factory soldering job, ribbon cable that makes no sense...

This was a hoax perpetrated for one reason. To make the politically correct less likely to bring attention to the real thing when it happens, because of all the stink over this one. People will be less likely to speak up if they think they too will be sued by the kid immediately if it turns out it's not a deadly device.

He was immediately having a meeting with CAIR and holding a press conference in his yard while refusing to communicate with the school, filed a lawsuit to sue everyone in sight within a couple of days, (school authorities I think, can't remember all the details, I'll look for links)...

All a hoax and it fooled Obama, Google, MIT, got him invited to the white house and various high profile tech corps...

Sorry, but that link's info is a bunch of BS. The kid did NOT put together a 'clock to look like a bomb'. Of course any fool rightwing neocon can rig up an LED clock to make it look like a bomb.

Gotta laugh. Someone sees a gun and it is pure panic. All the while they have nuclear weapons pointed at all their sorry a##es far more powerful than any IED. The difference, one is owned by the individual, the other is owned by an out of control government with far more resources.

Who cares? :(

keep on laughing. how many have been killed or injured by the nuclear weapons you're whining about? right...ZERO.

and how many have been killed or injured at the end of guns??? NOT ZERO.

yeah, i'm sure this gal would enjoy a good laugh with you....oh yeah, that's right "who cares?". :roll:

ask Karina "who cares?"

or maybe you can yuk it up with this guy and ask him "who cares?"

That was absolutely stupid... I can better you any day...






Boarding a plane in Israel


What a simple and brilliant idea! I particularly like the 'spare' seat announcement!! It's hard to beat Israeli technology!

TEL AVIV, Israel - The Israelis are developing an airport security device that eliminates the privacy concerns that come with full-body scanners.

It's an armored booth you step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on your person.

Israel sees this as a win-win situation for everyone, with none of this crap about racial profiling.

It will also eliminate the costs of long and expensive trials.

You're in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion. Shortly thereafter, an announcement:

"Attention to all standby passengers, El Al is pleased to announce a seat available on flight 670 to London. Shalom!"

BRILLIANT!


You really are such a cool guy... How can you argue with logic?

logic?

you need to look up the word.

now, back to WHAT YOU RAISED earlier that you've chosen to ignore since you're clearly not bothered by victims of gun violence....

you make light of gun violence and are more concerned w nuclear weapons aimed at "our sorry asses". really?

wow.....you have ZERO compassion for those victims???? are you really THAT callous?
#248062 by Planetguy
Mon Sep 28, 2015 1:05 am
i hope it never happens but one has to wonder if a family member or close friend of your's gets hit w a stray bullet in a drive by or a domestic argument...would you THEN be a little more concerned?

somehow....i think you'd blame the victim, pooh-pooh it away w something "logical" like .."well if only they had a gun to protect themselves....".

yeah......you go on and keep whining about the govt's nuclear weapons. now , is there something else you'd like to change the subject to? :oops:

As you pointed out MARK in your 3 examples... ALL WERE EXAMPLES OF CRAZIES... JUST LIKE HITLER, WITH NO REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE.

You make very little sense of any of the topics you push your self into.
Are you saying that the over 400 million guns in the hands of law abiding citizens caused the tragic death in these three cases? What about darrel fuller a paroled killer that blew away a private citizen and a 29 year old ESU officer with a gun from fast and furious... TWO DAYS AFTER HE WAS RELEASED... ON PAROLE... FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER...
WHERE IS YOUR LIBERAL OUTRAGE OVER THAT?

You don't have any... Thank god you don't have any guns... Just another crazy!
