It appears that authorities are looking for a person of interest with extensive ties to Pakistan regarding the abortive bombing attempt on Times Square.

It is, of course, terrorism, whether it’s an Pakistani-American, or someone who can trace their lineage back to the Mayflower, because, after all, blowing up a bomb in Times Square is terrorism.

The question now is whether it was Mayflower type, or someone with ties to the Islamic world.

In either case, it was someone who did not know how to do it right, so we can pretty much cross off going to one of those al Qaeda training camps, because he clearly did not take IED making 101.
