Muslim student arrested for homemade clock in Texas is moving to Qatar

[cigaretteman]

The family of a 14-year-old Muslim boy from Texas who was arrested after a homemade clock he brought to school was mistaken for a possible bomb has announced he'll be attending school in the Middle East.

Ahmed Mohamed's family said in a statement Tuesday they've accepted a foundation's offer to pay for his high school and college in Doha, Qatar. He recently visited the country as part of a whirlwind month that included a visit Monday to the White House.

Ahmed's father, Mohamed Elhassan Mohamed, told The Dallas Morning News that "we are going to move to a place where my kids can study and learn and all of them being accepted by that country."

Ahmed was arrested last month after bringing the clock to his high school in Irving, a Dallas suburb.

after meeting with the President(he did not deserve the meeting)......his family flew to Sudan where he met with the President.......a president who is a wanted war criminal by the UN, and as known as "The Butcher of Darfur".

Our Country got outright played by this family and our President. The Media and the sycophants STILL claim the kid built the clock, and that we are punishing him for his "skills".

Are you f**king kidding me with this shit?

Pretty sure that the father felt the need to get out of the country after all of this came to light.

Here's how hard he worked to create the most amazing clock anyone has ever seen. The skill level this kid has is undeniable.

 

[ottumwan in tx]

the kid is a shoe-in for the cia, his dad probably already on the usa fed payroll, that's why they are headed to the middle east. this is cia stuff

 

[HallofFame]

Disgusting

 

[Pinehawk]

Qatar likes to offer scholarships early to kids who they identify as having college level bomb making skills.

 

[unIowa]

Moving to Qatar where he can better learn to be disrespectful towards women and how to hate gays.

Once again Obama opens his mouth and swallows his entire leg. The POTUS is really putting forth effort into being the worst POTUS, ever.

 

[swagsurfer02]

You can't make this stuff up

 

[Hawki97]

Most amazing troll job ever...well done Ahmed.

Huh? ODS in full flower here.

you're going to actually defend him bringing this kid to the White House?

 

[22*43*51]

Which part of the White House?

This kids dad is an extremist. So I'm thinking it was just like the Oval Office, or maybe the Tea Room...

The Rose Garden is reserved for the Dad's of collaborators.

 

[dandh]

I'm thinking the kid should carry a briefcase with nothing but his clock in it when he enters Qatar and see how that's received there.

I certainly don't know enough about the kid and his dad or any political ramifications. However, I do know the Qatar Foundation entities include branches of Texas A & M, Northwestern, Georgetown, Virginia Commonwealth, Carnegie Mellon, Cornell Medical College, Harvard Medical School, among other institutions. I have a friend from Qatar who had a fellowship at one of these branches.

You shut your damn mouth. Either you talk about how Obama was duped by this little terrorist or you keep the facts to yourself. We're outraged here and no amount of your fancy talkin' is gonna help.

'specially talkin' about them snooty, hifalootin' left wing indoctrination centers you call universities!

 

[unIowa]

We should probably give Ahmed and his family the old Facebook Co-Founder treatment and not allow him or any of his kin back on American soil...right, amirite!

Exactly. ODS strikes again. Reading, it's FUNdamental. I find it ironic that conservatives are outraged he's accepting a scholarship to PAY for high school AND college in a nation bustling with completely unchecked free market activity, an enormous wealth gap, and a culture that hates gays because of their "religion". Isn't that the American GOPs version of paradise?

Nice to see two that are so deep on the POTUS' shaft... do you tag team or fight over who gets the end result?

Hint: No one goes to Qatar to study or seek religious asylum...


Y'all crazy

That's great news! Now if he can just convince a few million more to join them.

I don't think we really need that many clocks.

Thanks for refuting this point with a well-reasoned response...oh, you have nothing? Pretty typical for today's conservatives: taking pride in your lack of higher order brain activity and a reveling in your repressed homosexual fantasies.

DP is a fun option if you have a talented partner.

Nobody?

Nobody?

Oh sorry, kids who have a remarkable ability for disassembly of clocks!

Also, people who are from worse places? I hear Lucifer spends his Summers there as he likes the sand.

Do you have proof?

 

[swagsurfer02]

Do you have proof?

Yeah, this photo was taken right before he left. Last thing he said is "the Prince of Darkness is going to Qatar". He also said to have mstp1992 look him up when he goes there for vacation!

Only Obama could get trolled by young Ackmed.

Just for the record- I have not or never will be visiting Qatar.

That is all.

That's pretty incredible. I googled the picture of the clock he made, and it's almost exactly the same as the end result of that video. Sad.

Must have struck a nerve in the back of your throat. Does ODS stand for Obama's D!ck Sucker... it sure seems to fit you and the others that mention that acronym so often.

I can coexist with you if that is how you are, I may not agree with your lifestyle but I can coexist.

 

[Run&Blade]

He'll be back to do the deed someday.

Brainwashed more easily after this incident he will most likely be back to commit some terrorist act.

You sure you weren't there in July? Because it kind of looks like a place you might find "homey".
