And when asked about the members of his flock, the Imam was quoted as saying:

"I have faith that they have done a thorough investigation," Khanson said of authorities. "But just the possession of [6,000 lbs. of] ammonium nitrate doesn't prove that they have done anything wrong."

People why wonder why Islam gets painted with a broad brush. It's this kind of "condemnation" of violence that people are sick of.

seized evidence such as a 9-mm Luger handgun, military fatigues and two-way radios

I guess in Canada this kind of stuff makes the authorities wet themselves in fear.

Been through this previously. Please see posts 16,61 and 72.

The ratio numbers on a bag of fertilizer indicate the amounts of the elements in a hundred weight of the product. Thus 34-0-0 indicates 34# of nitrogen per hundred weight of the fertilizer. If the bag is 50#, there's 17# of nitrogen available.

If you triple the amount of actual N per acre, and have plentiful rainfall, you might get lush vegetation ......and no flowers or fruit. Most likely you'll get 'Crispy Critters'.

Our hats are off in respect for the RCMP. The law enforcement types in this country could probably learn from them.

Good Hunting!!!

"I can honestly say that up until the names were listed, I had assumed normal Canadians were involved."

Isn't that absurd? I assumed they were Muslims---despite no mention of the fact. I was trying to find this information in the newspaper article and gave up after reading half of the huge article and seeing nothing. I figured I would just come onto the free Republic and find out, but I ended up listening to Drudge on the radio on Sunday night. Of course, he mentioned it.

Interesting how the domestic Left organizations like the MSM are supportive of Muslim terrorists. There is no obvious ideological connection between the two. To me, this supports my view: that the Russians are pulling the strings of the Left---in America, Europe, and around the world.

I also believe the Russians are supportive of the terrorists, though not directly in control. If the Russians really opposed terrorism, as they claim, how could they support Iran so strongly, why would they be so quick to bring Hamas representatives into Moscow?

AHHHHH those poor terrorists were caught trying to buy WMD.

I really don't care if it is "entrapment". They had plans and were making the purchase. Better the police knew the A.N. was delivered than sit about wondering if it were delivered and where it might be.

[Beckwith]

Sting operations are not "entrapment."

It might have been entrapment if the cops offered to sell them the stuff. But these dickheads went out and bought/ordered it all on their own.

That the RCMP were all over their stuff and substituted a benign substance certainly isn't entrapment.

[Libertina]

I had wondered proviously when they'd claim that. Or say that the ammonium nitrate was not real so they didn't really have possesion of any bomb-making "materials." This is what liberalism has given us. People with no shame who ATTACK when caught. Like the joke of the guy whose wife catches him in bed with another woman. He calmly gets up and gets dressed. The woman leaves and he keeps saying no one was here. The wife is finally so confused she thinks she imagined it...

[hoosierham]

I am happy these guys were caught,I just would like more emphasis on the muslim aspect.We know who the enemy is-they publicly demonstrate their hate for the West and freedom every day.

[monkeyshine]

Anser Farooq, a lawyer who represents five of the accused

Tsk. They need a good Jewish lawyer! (/sarcasm)

Or, maybe Ramsey Clark will represent them.
