Police let intended terrorist Najibullah Zazi through a checkpoint despite having been tipped off about the explosives he was carrying. If only he had been a black guy at a bachelor party! Enjoy your Monday commute! [WSJ]
There are times when the man pictured on the front page of the paper is a total hottie. Read further and you learn he's a terrorist or murderer. Here are some crushes that come with a side serving of guilt.
Remember Najibullah Zazi, the coffee cart vendor from Queens who was arrested in September for conspiring to bomb targets using homemade chemical weapons? As dangerous as he may have been with explosives in his possession, it turns out he wasn't much of a threat when it came to coffee and donuts. City inspection records indicate he only received six tickets between December 2004 and May 2008, "a tally that industry representatives say is impressively low." We knew there had to be a silver lining somewhere! [NYT]
