This plot involved planes going from Britain to the U.S.....from the "little satan" to the "big satan".
I believe this is the Aug 22 surprise/announcement/firworks that Ahmadinejad has been referring to.
Anyone else mention this connection?
What does your tag line mean?
It's Bush's fault for screwing up the plan.
Possible, but they've probably been watching these guys. Would they wait until the day before to stop them? That's awfully close.
The Iranians and their Hezbollah minions have never been quite as "sophisticated" in their methods. Moreover, there are enough philisophical and ideological differences between the Shi'ite Iranians and the largely Sunni Al Qaeda that probably minimizes much of the cooperation, to the extent that if they weren't both hell bent on killing us, they'd be killing each other.
And for not sufficiently planning for the aftermath. Nor for planning for the aftermath of the consequences of the aftermath, or for planning for the .... blah, blah, blah. (Kerry: "I just sat stunned...)
"I don't think this is Iranian in origin - almost certainly al Qaida."
They cooperate with another.
" I suspect the Iranians are furious that this plot came about now"
They weren't supposed to be caught beforehand.
So, uh, when do the hearings start to determine the extent that the UK surveillance teams violated the civil rights of it's citizens before thwarting the alleged "plot". Oh yeah, wrong country. (Carnivore, et al chugging full time today, I bet)
I agree ... Interesting pattern. What importance does "11" have to muslims? Maybe preparation for the 12th Imam?
Sorry to bust up your party. I guess that makes me the Designated Drag.
The "11" pops up again. It makes me think that maybe there weren't 19 hijackers ... perhaps there were 22.
I hope you are wrong, but I am very worried that you may be right.
Big Ear listening to as much as possible before the dems take back congress, begin two year long impeachment hearings, and shut down all cepts unless approved by the 9th Circus and possibly, Hill. I need another cup of Jo.
Whatever ahmatinynutjob's intentions are for the 22nd, it would be comforting to know whether any of our "boomer" subs are in the area......just in case.
This operation was originally scheduled for Dec. 2003 and was disrupted at the time. This is an "old" operation that was rescheduled for a later date and is a Bin Laden operation orchestrated in Pakistan.
Since a few apparently turned themselves in, it seems unlikely the were involved in a plot. But hard to say.
given the range of the multiple warhead boomsticks, they are always "in the area".
8 Egyptian males still missing on the ground here does not make me feel very good either. Especially since it seems that when they got here, they split up...
if they send the three in custody to kuwait for "questioning", then I'd say it was serious.
"This operation was originally scheduled for Dec. 2003 "
Where did you hear that?
