What the hell are the “fantasists” thinking? I would dearly love for everything to be “alright” and no psychotic, Koran thumping nightmare from the Hindu-Kush to not be planning on distributing the remains of 500 of my fellow humans to the rolling North Atlantic.

But, alas, things are not alright. We are locked in a struggle with a group so vile and despicable, that they will use ANY means to intimidate and terrify the populations of the EWF (Enlightened FRee World) to support their four doctrines.

Implement Sharia.

Restore the Caliphate

Eradicate Israel

Death / Slavery to all non-believers

Just another day in the IFA (Islamo-Fascist Alliance)

The real enemies are Islamic extremists-target them. Stop making Grandma from Cleveland remove her shoes and pour out her coffee at the airport. I am not a conservative, but Rick is so right. Forget the political correctness. Pay more attention to the most likely terrorists. Screen and track people from Islamic nations carefully as they enter and move about the USA. This may not be “fair”, but little in life is fair. The real victories in the war on terror will be like this one in Great Britan. Stopping terrorist plots before they can be carried out. Counterterrorism is a slow, difficult process that we must have the strength and resolve to carry out, most likely over several decades. However the war in Iraq ends, it will not end terrorism or America’s need to combat it for the protection and well being on the nation.

Earlier today, British authorities thwarted a homegrown Jihadist plot of global proportions, demonstrating yet again that a terrorist’s mind is his own worst enemy. The Facts The foiled operation, which officials have described as suggestive of an Al …

As expected, the fact that a new terrorist plot was thwarted today has bloggers from the Right and the left arguing about the fight against terrorism and about whether the Bush administration is conducting it as effectively as possible. It

The below link, leads to a Sky News article, about the airplane bombing plot out of the UK today:

Deputy Assistant Commissioner Peter Clarke said the probe had been underway for several months…….

“During the investigation an unprecedented level of surveillance has been undertaken and that surveillance has had as its objective to gather intelligence and evidence in support of the investigation,” he said.

“We have been looking at meetings, movements, travel, spending and the aspirations of a large group of people. This has involved close co-operation not only between agencies and police forces in the UK but also internationally.

Notice the keys words in the passages:

SURVEILLANCE

So, my rhetorical questions for the MSM are:

1) in light of your revelations over the past year, vis a vis the NSA Surveillance Program, and the SWIFT Banking Programs; IF this plot had succeeded, would you be willing to pay compensation to the victims families, for your part in destroying our intelligence capabilities to stop such plots?

2) since the plot was disrupted, HOPEFULLY, how much sooner could it have been disrupted, IF you had NOT revealed that information?

3) how many other plots will we NOT find, because of your irresponsibility?

4) will you (NY Times, LA Times, etc.); now make it your duty to find out the means used, to disrupt this plot, and reveal it as soon as you can??

Ad Nauseum, ad naseum….

For all your (correctly placed) outrage at the imbeciles on the left thinking this is an easy fight, please direct a little ire at the man who is letting Baghdad burn and has yet to return the pelt of UBL.

Mentre i mainstream media giocano a fare i pagliacci nel circo di Hezbollah, i terroristi provano (ma non riescono) a colpire il cuore dell’Occidente.

In the unlikely event the United States ends up succumbing to the global jihad, if any of us survive the fallout - figuratively or literally - we can point to a collective, patholigical obsession with political correctness as one of the “root causes” of our undoing.

It is very sober and balanced, and makes no vast sweeping conspiracy charges, while pointing out plenty of things that we don’t know. It suggests there were additional explosives hidden in the building, without trying to explain where they came from. The experts agreed that a single truck bomb could not have had such a devastating impact.
