Well that is just the scary truth isn't it - wonder if they slipped out to train somewhere exotic? Wonder if they were on benefits...

if either of these if the case, then serious questions need to be asked.

Too right - it is sickening and you have to ask 'Why do we allow it?' - this country is way too soft imo...

it is way too quick to take away the liberties of the law abiding, but it is way too soft on criminals and terrorists :(

Just a small point as an aside, its interesting to what the policitians posturing and saying that they've "doubled counter-terrorism measures", while a bunch of black clad, gas mask wearing SAS men abseil from helicopters in the background.


Got me thinking... how does a bunch of black clad, gas mask wearing SAS men prevent someone sneaking a bomb onto a train?:scratch:

Absolutely.

Turns out the London bombers were British Moslems, at least one of whom spent 6 months last year in Afganistan and Pakistan...

Intelligence forces should co-operate and monitor activity of those fanatics who've been to Afghanistan. You track them down and you may prevent further acts of terror.

Fair enough, but don't forget that at one time, many of the fighters who trained in these camps were the same that fought against the Soviets, (as part of the U.S. Cold War against Communism) and were funded by, and received training and logistical support from, the CIA.

Peace be on you,

Are you seriously suggesting we believe our own people are responsible for launching these attacks against us? I find that a ridiclous suggestion, and an insult...

109. Beware another terror attack

I've alleged government insiders made the OKC bombing, anthrax attack, sniper case and allowed 911 attack to happen to grip more police power and push for war in Mid-east. Some people argued how could government kill their own people. Compare the recent news and the revelation of the book. Beware another terror attack from our own government. (though always disguised as "enemy combatant" and "terrorist")

News: Within the past three weeks, US intelligence gathered what officials at Scott Air Force Base described as credible evidence of a planned bombing of a passenger airliner contracted to fly troops and freight for the military. (1/13/03, San Jose Mercury News)

Book: They called for hijacking jet airliners, attacking US military bases, blowing up US ships and wounding civilians in Miami, Florida and Washington, DC using paramilitary sniper teams . (northwoods story)



Operation Northwoods

Our U.S. Government Planned To Attack

"We The People"

Former ABC News investigative reporter James Bamford . Broke the Northwoods Story in His Book, Body of Secrets . It is based mostly on documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act or found in government archives.

"We could develop a Communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Florida cities and even in Washington," said one document reportedly prepared by the Joint Chiefs of Staff. "We could blow up a U.S. ship in Guantanamo Bay and blame Cuba," the document says. "Casualty lists in U.S. newspapers would cause a helpful wave of indignation."

I simply do not believe these terrorist acts to be self inflicted. I think articles which suggest they are are missible. There will always be alternative theorists - this is nothing new - I'm just not interested - I am interested in catching the real perpetrators - in this case the British Moslem Terrorists, who lived in our country, enjoyed the benefits of being a Briton, who then decided to train in terrorism in Afganistan and then bomb their fellow citizens - well, as they were suicide bombers we can't catch them, but there are plenty of others...

What a quibble. "I simply do not believe.", "I'm just not interested". If Northwoods plan was carried out, there would have been same "perpetrators" been found. Most likely they would have been dead in operation and couldn't speak out the truth. That's how a case framed.

Quote, "Mossad Exposed in Phony `Palestinian Al-Qaeda' Caper

by Michele Steinberg and Hussein Askary

The United States government has been provided with concrete evidence that the Israeli Mossad and other Israeli intelligence services have been involved in a 13-month effort to "recruit" an Israeli-run, phony "al-Qaeda cell" among Palestinians, so that Israel could achieve a frontline position in the U.S. war against terrorism and get a green light for a worldwide "revenge without borders" policy. The question: Does the United States have the moral fiber to investigate?

Evidence of the Israeli dirty tricks burst onto the public scene on Dec. 6, when Col. Rashid Abu Shbak, head of the Palestinian Preventive Security Services in the Gaza Strip, held a press conference revealing the details of the alleged plot, as his agency had put the pieces together. The revelations undermine the "big lie" that Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has used to justify new brutal attacks on Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip and other occupied areas. Sharon claimed on Dec. 4 that Israeli intelligence had "hard evidence" of al-Qaeda operations in the Gaza Strip. Now, the top Palestinian leadership has shown the United States and other nations how Israeli intelligence entities were creating that al-Qaeda link!

Palestinians arrest al-Qaeda 'poseurs'

December 8 2002

Palestinian security forces have arrested a group of Palestinians for collaborating with Israel and posing as operatives of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda terrorist network, a senior official said yesterday.

The arrests come two days after Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon charged al-Qaeda militants were operating in Gaza and in Lebanon.

I've asked several people, nobody can tell me; what, exactly, did these jackasses accomplish?

Nothing but death and destruction. 70 innocents killed for no reason whatsoever.

No political, material, economic, or even cosmic goal was achieved by this act of sheer stupidity.

The Brits leaving? No.

The Brits panicking? No.

The West in ruins? No.

The CrudForBrains Jihad stock go up? Hardly.

Totally, utterly, completely pointless, with no impact other then pointless grief.


These are the folks who went through the Blitz drinking tea and cracking jokes. Whioh makes this latest pathetic little effort kind of...pathetic. In fact, it demonstrates mostly the impotence and small thinking of these little Jihadists. It evokes a kind of pathetic...pity for them.

Except, of course, for the shrill media magpies, manufacturing their little commerce, who insist on referring to these little murdering jackasses as 'masterminds' and 'brilliant,' who use 'sophisticated' weapons to pull off 'precisely syncronized' attacks.


....they used a clock, a timer, a cell phone, or any of a thousand other devices that 3rd graders all over the world have long mastered and that they themselves apparently could not concoct in a thousand years of not trying. And for this incredible accomplishment, accurately summarized as 'mastering the concept of '9:00' before pressing the magic make-boom button', we have madia magpies waxing on and on as if they had just pulled off the Manhatten Project. But of course, the media must do that to manufacture their commerce, so we can just forgive them while we ignore them.


It's so...pathetic...when undue praise is heaped onto a thrid-rate accomplishment. It's so..."Participation Medal."

If you believe half of what they publish, then Al Qaeda et al want to bring the West to its knees, wipe it out, clean up Allah's Earth of the infidel, whatever. If that's true, then the sad fact is...they are pikers. Real amateurs. Modernity had to deal with Hitler and Stalin, tens of millions of heads rolled when those bad asses went nutz, the entire world went to war.

With these jackasses, the entire world is ...bored, and slightly annoyed. It's like, 'well, they're not much when it comes to nuts, but dammit, they're our nuts.'

So, we run a kind of 'Special Terror Olympics' for our special little nuts, and give them all perfect '10's when they ...master the incredibly complex modern marvel of reading the clock.

Well, OK, that's why I say it's time for a Telethon. Clearly, this is a culture that needs some drastic help, a little guidance, because fact is, we're more afraid of the Chinese for what they can accomplish than we are of these radical Muslims for what they can manage to destroy. And, that's their fundamentalist problem; any idiot can kill/destroy, and apparently, any idiots are. If they really wanted to shake up the West, then they would have to get their act together and actually build something/create something.

Hell, they've got the Oil.

But, that also takes skill, talent, character, and brains.

So, the proper response to these pathetic little acts of destruction, IMO, is our pity. Contempt would be wasted; would you show contempt to Special Olympians because they failed to come within miles of the World Record? No, it would be unseemly.

So, ignore the shrill media magpies, and put these poor jackasses in their proper perspective.

Labor Day is coming up, it's not too late.

Like I said, I don't believe it and your argument does not sway me. And again, I am not interested in all this stuff; I am interested in the poor families and victims involved in the tragedy at hand...this is not a debating thread - if you want debate do it on the other one.
