• The State Department had it misspelled. Oops. There were a lot of unconnected dots in the Detroit terror bombing, but one of the most egregious – in our opinion – was the fact that the State Department didn’t know Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab had a visa after doing a background check on the guy because his name was misspelled. We’re not geniuses here, but Islamic names tend to be somewhat hard to spell, so it would make sense that one plans for that. Instead, he almost blew up a plane. source
