Boy I hope no domestic calls were listened in on to prevent this!

You know what, ld? I want to laugh at that, but I can't, b/c some shytbag out there (whom the MSM would play to the hilt) would actually be enraged if there were -- to Hell with the innocents who would've been vaporized.

the Brits in the office here seem more annoyed at the travel hastle this brings, then worried about an actual attack...

Good thing we are engaging the enemy "over there," so they will not ... errr... um. Well, never mind. Just stay the course.

Another billion pissed down a rathole in Iraq this week.

You forgot the without warrants part. Then again, you always do.

Oh yes, good point. I sure hope the domestic side of an overseas call was not listened in on without a warrant to prevent this massive terrorist plot. Whew, that's better, thanks.

Rodeo · 08-10-2006, 05:29 AM

Iraq was supposed to prevent this sort of thing, right?

Engage them "over there" so we don't have to "over here."

Guess some of "them" are not in Iraq after all.

No, it is one part of a much larger WoT. You really need to pay attention.

Indeed, I look forward to seeing how this evolved.

eehm , i think it was Scotland Yard who did the bust, not MI5

the articles state that MI5 "raised the alert level"

it's definately Scotland Yard who is making statements
i would think that MI5 has their own spokesperson , and would use their folks had done most of the legwork...

dunno , but that how i read it...

Watson?

British-born Pakistanis.

Some terrorists ARE born at home. I have never doubted that reading some of the posts here.

Toni Blair : Your highness, we have terrorists in London, permission to launch the nukes?
Lizzy : oh dear ... let's make it count, shall you use the submarines to launch?? can i push the button??

Rodeo · 08-10-2006, 06:26 AM

Wait ... I thought nukes would solve this whole terrorism thing. You mean to say they won't?

We actually have to consider what makes people terrorists, and address those issues as well? Doesn't that involve thinking?

You mean we can't simply bomb the ***** out of Muslim fanatics living in London, Los Angles, Toronto, and Beirut? How we gonna win the war, then?

"Police had spoken to a "good number of community leaders to make them aware that a major operation was under way," he added."

How culturally sensitive.

time to bring out a new series of McGyver
or even better, the A-team

In 2005 a crack prison unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men (and woman) promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as an undercover antiterrorisme unit. If you have a raghead - if no the Neocon's can't help - and if you can find them - maybe you can hire: The A-Team.

Dude, I never considered that we couldn't just shoot our way out of this! Say it ain't so!!

You mean there's no country we can invade or bomb that would have prevented British-born Muslims from turning to terrorism?

How we gonna win this except with flying projectiles as our exclusive strategy? You saying there's other things we can do to stop the spread of Islamic fanaticism? Won't that make us girly men if we consider those options?
