Report: Dutch police foil attack on El Al plane
Jerusalem Post ^ | Nov. 5, 2005

Posted on 11/05/2005 9:04:37 AM PST by Mount Athos

Dutch television announced on Friday that Netherlands police arrested a youth who allegedly intended to shoot down an El Al airplane at Schipool Airport outside of Amsterdam.

Samir Azuz, 19, a Dutch citizen of Moroccan descent, was arrested with six other co-conspirators, Israel Radio reported.

According to the Netherlands intelligence service, the suspects enlisted the cooperation of two employees at an office near Schipool in order to perform reconnaissance. They also acquired weapons.

Reports revealed that Azuz, apparently expecting to die while bringing down the airplane, had prepared a videotape saying goodbye to his parents.

Approximately six months ago Azuz was acquitted on charges of attempting to vandalize a nuclear power plant in the Netherlands.

The West is constantly under attack every single day. Yet, some people choose not to see that way.

Uh-oh, the lunatics will use this arrest as another 'reason' to riot.

If they just had of allowed the attack to go on as scheduled, the Muslim Youths in Holland would feel better about themselves, and there would be less tension.

(I don't really have to tag this, do I?)

"Some people" choose to believe that if we all just hold hands with these monsters and sing Kumbayah, maybe including a big group hug, that will make everything alright. Utter insanity.

Did he expect the plane to fall, bam, on his head?

I flew El Al in and out of Schiphol last year. There was at least one cop with an assault rifle about the whole time, also at the baggage area when EL Al passengers claimed luggage.

This didn't seem at all like overkill considering the islamist rat's nest that Amsterdam is becoming.

One foreboding sign, however, is the increasing number of Religion of Peace members on the Schiphol admin staff - with lot's of access to planes, gates, etc.

Yeah I dont quite understand how he was planning to pull off this scheme.

The article says the idea was to shoot it down, but with WHAT?

Say, I know this is beside the point, but are the Dutch still importing Muslims by the thousands and encouraging them to express their diversity???
