Texas 'clock kid' Ahmed Mohamed to move with family to Qatar

Perhaps it's your OWN paranoia that is making you see things that aren't there and aren't true. Stop reading those far left websites because they are never correct. They're written by fear-ridden clowns.

 

Jihadists do fight ISIS? Man, sorry, but most independent Jihadists become part of ISIS or if not being assimilated by ISIS, they are allied with them ... if being Sunnis!
If you call groups like Hezbollah to ne Jihadists then you are right ... but due to fact that Hezbollah is Shiite!
And please wake up ... there enough videos and pictures existing whicj show Qatar Air Force C-130's on Tripolis Airport short after conquered by rebels and handling over jeeps and weapons and whatever else to a jihadist rebel group.

 

They'll be back with exploding backpacks one day.

 

Certainly. Like Obama, they too immediately recognized scientific potential and future political leadership Ahmed will bestow upon Qatar. I say, Qatar been lucky in snatching up such prize.

 

And we very well may have given them the motivation.

 

Oh Bull (*)(*)(*)(*). Im so sick of people blaming us for cavemen mentality. These people want to kill us regardless of little clockmeds hurt feelings. Clockmed, his father and the horse they rode in on can get the (*)(*)(*)(*) out if they don't like it here. Toodle dee ^&*(ing loo.

 

I'm not talking about "these people." I'm talking about Ahmed. I don't see any reason to believe that he wanted to kill us.

 

the poptart kid didn't seem to want to kill anyone either but you guys jumped all over that kids (*)(*)(*)(*) with smiles on.

 

And Beck and the town mayor got off on claiming it was all part of a vast Islamic conspiracy, but you know... I'm sure that wouldn't breed any animosity.

 

We don't care what cavemen think. They breed animosity on their own because they still fear a skygod just like cavemen. They hate us if we help them like the piece of (*)(*)(*)(*) boston bombers did. I for one am tired of coddling terrorist wannabees. Ill volunteer to boot them in the ass on the way out of the country to expedite their departure if they don't like us or our country. If little clockmed cant abide by school rules....too bad.

 

I think the kid is more curious about engineering than anything else. The irony, however, is that Qatar has one of the most liberal, multicultural, progressive educational systems in the ME. Its 2030 educational plan is to have is highly motivated, highly skilled work force that would require very little hands on management to get the job done.

The jihadists you are referring to are the Libyan rebels that Qatar supplied who are fighting ISIS, but who are not supportive of the current Libyan regime either.

 

Seeing the young jihadi's travel itinerary and choice of associates since I'm not so sure it wasn't a contrived event with co-conspirators.

Add now the knowledge that his sister had made previous terroristic threats, his father's anti American rhetoric and the fact that dad won't allow Ahmed's prior disciplinary record to be released. Add as well the high probability that Ahmed has made prior violent threats, thus the schools reaction, and I've little doubt that Ahmed intended the reaction he received.

Add too this tidbit. At 7 in first grade I might have been proud enough to show off a disassembled clock, by the age of 14 in 7-8th grade I was building electronic appliances, making radios, rebuilding motorcycle engines, and using a simple chemistry starter set with checked out college level texts was making some neat stuff, things that exploded. At 14 I understood the science and mechanics behind my efforts. I knew what a covalent bond was I knew how to titrate, define constituents in a solution, redox, preform chemical separations and utilize catalysts to initiate changes I was seeking.

Keep in mind that I wasn't unique nor was I close to others my age in any of this, I'm average. So if Ahmed is average he knew damn well that his clock as a clock or invention was nothing special and if his intent was to impress he would have produced something more age appropriate OR been to ashamed to display something so simple. No Ahmed wasn't showing his electronic acumen he was displaying his ability to instill fear. Ahmed was playing politics, the politics of terror.

Chew on that as you think back to what you could do at 14.

The Salafi version of Sunni Islam is the state sponsored brand of Islam in Qatar. It is ultra-conservative and orthodox. The only other predominantly Salafi nation in the Muslim world is Saudi Arabia.

Wahhabism is a more strict, Saudi form of Salafism

Osama Bin Laden was a Wahhabist.

Make no mistake, this Wahhabism is an extreme form of Islam.

Here's what 13 and 14 year old science students do:

Aakshi Agarwal is designing drugs to treat rheumatoid arthritis, but she's not a doctor or research associate at a major university, she's in middle school.

The 14-year-old Agarwal's project is one of 30, chosen as a Broadcom Math, Applied Science, Technology, and Engineering for Rising Stars (MASTERS) finalist.

These science fair projects were chosen from thousands of nominees across the country, all in the sixth, seventh, or eighth grade.

On Sept. 27, the kids are headed to Washington D.C. to show off their work. The winner, announced on Oct. 1, receives $25,000 in prize money.



Aakshi Agarwal designed potential drugs that could treat rheumatoid arthritis.


When Aakshi Agarwal, 14, volunteered in a nursing home she developed relationships with many people suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. Her experience inspired her research into TNF-alpha: the molecule that contributes to the painful inflammation of the disease.

Using a computer program, Agarwal designed 200 drugs that could potentially treat this inflammation by inhibiting the enzyme TACE that produces TNF-alpha. Agarwal hopes to actually create and test her new drugs once she is older.

Agarwal's future career interest is the following: neuroanatomy.



Drew Becker tagged and tracked harmful fracking fluids.


Drew Becker, 13, created a way to monitor potentially harmful natural gas leaks that fracking can cause. These leaks can contaminate the groundwater near fracking sites. Becker sent small amounts of two types of stained bacteria down part of the Popo Agie River in Wyoming.

The stretch of river he tested runs underground through a water reservoir, and Becker found his tagged bacteria in a pool downstream where the river reappears above ground — meaning they successfully flowed downriver, even underground.

Becker's future career interest is the following: commercial diving.




Elizabeth Corn discovered that the smaller the nanoparticle, the more effective it is at treating disease.


After reading about the medical benefits of nanotechnology, 14-year-old Elizabeth Corn wanted to test if smaller nanoparticles would be more effective than larger ones. She used zinc oxide particles ranging from 18 to 200 billionths of a meter, and tested their ability to kill a nonpathogenic strain of E. coli.

Corn found that the smaller nanoparticles were more effective at killing the E. coli bacteria than the larger particles.

Corn's future career interest is the following: neuroscience.

LOL, Qatar just got themselves a budding bomb maker. In five years or less we'll be hearing of his dexterity and imagination in building bigger and better bombs to kill Americans.

 

Congratulations, you posted an article about science fair projects who are at the top of their class. However, Achmed never claimed that his project would win the science fair, did he?

 

From the prizes he won, the acclaim from MIT, and a White House invitation, you would have thought he cured cancer.

 

It wasn't science it represented, assuming no malicious intent, the inquisitive nature of a 7 year old. Either Ahmed is severely retarded or he had another motive, a motive more age appropriate to a 14 year old teen and expressed, I'm sure, by his father at the families evening meals in glowing terms as stories of terror where told and the martyrs prayed for.

I have to ask Alawessa, would your father take you to see a mass murder? What motivates a man to subject his son to the butcher of Darfur? There is only one motive and it betrays the thought behind past actions.

1. Arrogance at its best...telling someone what they should read.
2. Its better than the trash vomited at Fox.

 

LOL Qatar funds ISIS and Hamas, as well as other terrorist groups. Perfect place for the wanna-be bombmaker kid and his wanna-be terrorist dad.

 

See above.

 

Who do you name Jihadists to differ them against ISIS please? Fact is following:

Al Qaida and ISIS were in Iraq allied, later ISIS declared Al Qaida as unimportant and assimilated them mostly in Iraq. Later, both become evil and are since some time in war against each other after Al Qaida chief Zawahiri declared ISIS as excluded from Jihad. In the following ISIS fighters executed caught Jihadist fighters and Al Qaida members, as it happened on other side too. A third party in conflict are the Shiite groups like Hezbollah who are supporting Assad (as he did before for Hezbollah too) and which are fighting all Jihadists which are Sunni ... as ISIS as Sunni fight all Shiite But:

Most Sunni Jihadists joined ISIS or allied with ISIS in Iraq! Other Sunni Jihadist stay to Al Qaida as many do in Libya and at least ... as important it is to make differences to understand things correctly ... we are talking about groups where the same differences are like between plague, cholera, Aids and Ebola at diseases ... all are deadly and must be fought. So out of this it is un-excusable that Qatar is supporting such a sort of disease.
Further, again: It is in Qatar no crime and will not be followed by executive to support ISIS! Do there no alarm bells ring?

 

That has more to do with his enthusiasm than the actual clock. The first step in science is curiosity which Ahmed has shown.

 

You have a severely limited view of what science is and how it is defined. If I wanted to teach a young kid how a clock works, its function, its mechanism, I would expect that kid to disassemble the clock, explain all the parts individually, and then let the kid demonstrate the functionality by intentionally allowing certain parts of the clock to be blocked for performing its function.
