If you watch 24, then you know you're supposed to get the president to sign the full immunity deal BEFORE you help the government out. Duh.

i once made a silly boastful comment to my pot dealer about firearms and how its hard to find hiding places for my stockpile while the hidden stash scene in terminator3 was on the tube...

months later after not seeing him or using his services he calls me then puts a strange guy on the phone, who asks i heard you have some guns you need to to get rid of a few...

hahaa, i just told him to fuck off and never call me again, snitch bitch...

actually the real story is even funnier...

cops contact him by phone in the morning,

show up at his house a few minutes later, and after cycling through friends and his father, finally reaches the suspect at NOON...

wow, if youre planning somehting remotely illegal and some imam calls you out of the blue, thats a pretty big tip off!!! this guy is a victim of his police handlers...

he did what he was asked and as an amatuer spy snitch informant messed up the investigation...

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Minutes after the phone call, a detective and a sergeant were in his living room, having presented several photos and a single question: did he know these men?

Coaxed, he recognized three boys who attended his classes at his former mosque, Mr. Zazi, Adis Medunjanin and Zarein Ahmedzay, now bearded men in their mid-20s. More questions followed, but he could offer only the barest biographical details, he said.

The visit seemed more significant than others, but his visitors would not explain their interest in the men. Before they left, he said, they asked him to find out more about what the men were doing in New York, though they did not say how.

“I knew it was something serious,” Mr. Afzali said, “but I didn’t know how serious it was.”

The following week, the authorities said publicly that the three men were just days away from trying to detonate explosives in the subway in three coordinated suicide attacks.

But on the morning after his conversation with the police, Sept. 11. 2009, Mr. Afzali knew none of this, he said.

He began tracking down Mr. Zazi, speaking first to a distant relative of the man, and then to his father. Shortly before noon, he reached Mr. Zazi. The conversation started awkwardly.

“What’s going on?” Mr. Afzali began.

“Um, what do you mean?” Mr. Zazi said defensively.

Mr. Afzali laughed. “How you been? I’m asking you.”

Mr. Afzali then told Mr. Zazi that the authorities had come asking about him and his two friends. Mr. Afzali said he did not want to know details. He warned that the phone call was being monitored.

Wouldn't have mattered if you hadn't tipped off the terrorist!

When he pleaded guilty last month, he said, "I've just signed my death sentence.

"I barely speak my own language."

Is he saying he barely speaks ANY language, or is he saying he mostly identifies himself with a culture he really doesn't know anything about?

Crash course in that culture you've been fronting on, dude.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass!

Most likely he immigrated here at a young age, so he doesn't know the language of his birth country very well. I heard him speak on NY1, he has a NY accent

I hear Kabul is nice this time of year

How did he help the gov't? I thought the article said he tipped off a suspect that the authorities were looking into him.

He was an informant, so the government wouldn't have caught the guys in the first place if it wasn't for him in the first place.

he was an informant = good

who TIPPED OFF THE TERRORIST = bad

the rock and the hard place = he has betrayed both the US and Muslims. he'll get his ass handed to him by his camel back home.
