Hamas took credit for killing inocent people on this crowded bus.

The second act of terror is the announcement.    A terrorist act is incomplete and ineffectual unless the group claims responsability and makes its demands known.  Hamas accomplishes the second act with the assistance of Telia.net (now merged with Sonera.com).

What? Do they plan to flood the US market with foreign falafel?

Remember. Howard Dean supports the soldiers of Hamas.

American-made products must be boycotted, he said, and urged Muslims to offer any kind of possible financial aid and support to the Mujahedin (Muslim warriors) fighting for the sake of Allah.

Right. Sell everything you own and dump the money into the deepest hole you can find.

I have always contended that economic jihad is the ultimate goal of ALL terrorist attacks against the US. Look at the economic fallout from 9/11. As bad as the loss of life was, the real hurt came from billions in losses, businesses closed or moved forever, market uncertainty, etc. And all that from a couple of buildings.

Now think about the worst-case scenarios of nuclear or biological attacks on several US cities. The actual number of people killed or injured might well run into the tens of thousands but the vast majority of Americans would be unaffected outside the local areas. Losses of property would be limited in scope to small areas as well. Compared to the vast expanse and population of America, it would seem to be a small percentage of loss. Life would go on.

However, the terrorists know all too well what economic havoc would spiral out of this scenario. Lost businesses and workers would fail to support other businesses, who would not buy other products, etc. It would be years, if ever, before our economic lives got back to normal. Couple that with global boycotts and there you go. America can survive, in the larger sense, anything they can throw at us. But the US economy may not. And once the US economy is down and out, there goes most of our power in the world.

Well damn it! No stylish homicide belts for the fall fashions? Do we really want the business of terrorists? Here's hoping all the terrorists go to virgin heaven real soon!

I guess they're not happy with the results so far of the military-style jihad.

Jehadi website ping: (let me know if you want on or off)

..the Palestinian Islamic movements are "buying into" bin Ladin's ideology of global--not just local--Jihad.

These guys keep screwing around and the US is going to come up with an alternate fuel and THEIR economy is going to tank. What do these guys have to sell other than oil?

They really have NO idea who they're messing with.

This country came out of the worst financial crisis in history and fought the second world war, what makes them think that money is all we're about?

Meant to note the links in post 1, for those willing to write.

FBI director for counterterrorism John Pistole...

If we're attacked by Waco children I'm sure the tough guys in fbi/jttf CT and Delta can burn 'em up real good like.

muslim terrorists seem to get a pass. mueller lunches with them. muslim fbi agents refuse to monitor muslims...and are PROMOTED.

These GS zeros aren't qualified and more importantly disposed to really fighting the enemy.

[SupplySider]

Well, they have developed a sure-fire method to destroy any economy: institute Islamic rule.
