"Perhaps you can explain the significance. The significance to me is that there seems to be no end to these vermin."

This interests me because of the all-out media blitz we're currently enduring, the sole purpose of which is to convince the American people that there is no Al Qaida - Iraq connection.

It never ceases to amaze me how the liberal media can ignore stories like this.

It's likely this is another scare story from a Murdoch porn rag The Sun, designed to scare soccer moms, the same outlet that pushed all the bogus WMD nonsense prior to the invasion.

There have been several major attacks thwarted in the past few weeks, in countries that both are and aren't part of the Iraq coalition, and these stories aren't getting much press. But to the extent these plots are even noticed, they will all be blamed on Bush, e.g., "if we only hadn't gotten them mad" etc. The Islamic world is full of unemployed nobodies who think the only way they can make a mark in life is through death and violence, by emulating the violent precedent of their hero Mohammed. And these killers are soooo sensitive about alleged insults and humiliations and violations of their "sacred" places; their so-called great religion hasn't even given them the tools for self-criticism, for basic truth-telling, for accepting responsibility for one's actions, for forgiveness of the past (they are still mad about the goddamned Crusades, etc.), or for the rudiments of self-awareness.
