Five London Suspects Still at Large
ABC NEWS ^ | 8-10-06 | ABC NEWS - BRIAN ROSS

Posted on 08/10/2006 11:13:52 AM PDT by eyespysomething

Five of the suspected London terrorists are still at large and are being urgently hunted, according to U.S. sources who have been briefed on the airplane bombing plot.

Officials tell ABC News 24 people now have been taken into custody. Twenty-two are believed to be of Pakistani descent. One is Bangladeshi, and another is of Iranian descent, according to the officials.

One of the arrests was made in the northeastern London suburb of Walthamstow. Residents said police took away a man in his late 20s at 2 a.m. today. The neighbors said the man was British-born, with one parent who is Iranian and had recently become very religious.

Isn't Al Queda Sunni? And don't they dislike Shi'ites? Are they teaming up now?

Gotta watch out for those Mongolian and Nepalese terrorists...

And the Sherpa terrorists. Don't forget the Sherpas. Those guys don't need oxygen at 30,000 feet.

I don't know about Special Order 40, but Iran had better watch out for Special Order 24.

Thanks for finding that. The reports also made clear that Saddam's intel forces had no problem at all working with islamists against Western and Israeli interests. They will cooperate with each other against us. If they could beat us, they would likely fight with each other over who would head the Caliphate, but that doesn't mean they won't work with each other to get to that day. The "experts" nonsense never made any sense to me.

The news about this plot has been shocking enough that so far we have seen little effort by media apologists to focus attention on how the terrorists were no different than you and me, or to throw cold water on the good work done by the Brits (although the DU moonbats and some of the White House press corps have already hinted at some ulterior political motives by the Bush administration).

That will change soon enough - look for statements such as the following ones (that were uttered in the Canadian press when a less-advanced terror ring was rounded up not too long ago): "Little is known about the 17 ... suspects arrested in an alleged plot ... Little except that most of them appeared to be typical ... residents from a variety of Middle Eastern backgrounds, with loving families, who kept very much to themselves ... Some are students, some are employed, some are unemployed ... they represent the broad strata of our community" and so on...

Swarm their beehives and administer treatment.

just a question or two on your apiary metaphor: swarms depart a beehive to form a new colony elsewhere.

Do you mean that we should form human reverse-swarms, go to their "hive" and then apply firepower against their beehive?

Do you mean that we should somehow get their "beehive" to swarm, and then while they, as a bee swarm, are out of the hive, then wipe them out?

I guess what's confusing is who/whom make up the swarm that "Swarms their beehives..."?

DFU SONG: Werewolves in London (Muslims in London)
DFU SONGS | 7-2005 | Lyrics, Doug from Upland

Posted on 07/12/2005 8:26:11 PM PDT by doug from upland

MIDI - WEREWOLVES IN LONDON

(intro)

They will kill you when you're riding the train
Of course, they will kill you when you're flying a plane
And they're gonna kill you boarding a bus
They'll say, "Infidel, you are not one of us"

Beware...Muslims in London...beware
Beware...Muslims in London...beware

In the mosques they have been preaching hate
People awoke just a little too late
All over Europe they've become a big threat
It's not too late to stop them yet

Beware...Muslims in London...beware
Beware...Muslims in London...beware

(musical break)

If you see some guys with towels on top their heads
Chances may be good that they are wanting you dead
You cannot profile...I guess that's just not right
Oh, well, I guess you could die tonight

Beware...Muslims in London...beware
Beware...Muslims in London...beware

You must always be so sensitive
Don't hurt their feelings...live and let live
If you're living by that little rule
Your mama has raised up quite a fool
If you don't know that they want conversion or your death
You must be on meth

Bewaaaaaaaaaare...Muslims in London...beware
Bewaaaaaaaaaare...Muslims in London

Yes and like Pakistan, India is considered Asia (South), Afghanistan and all the Stans of the former Soviet Union can be considered Asia and then there is Thailand (watch out – growing problems with muzzies in the South), Indonesia (another muzzie hotbed), Japan, Korea, even Australia and New Zealand are geographically part of Asia, the Asian Pacific.

Heck half of the world is Asian….

A small point--it was the Mongols who sacked Baghdad in the 1200's.

(An incident which should give us hope: until the Mongols dealt with them, the Shi'ite Seveners, or Ismaelis, were the most viscious and bloodthirsty of Mohammedans, fielding the Assassins against Sunni, Shi'ite Twelver, and Christian alike. After their defeat by the Mongols, they went peaceful: Seveners are mostly well-educated professionals in Pakistan now, and are among the most pacific of Muslims.)

The Brits commonly use the term 'Asian' to describe persons from central Asia or the subcontinent.

And they are Asian.

Exactly. That's the way the Communists work, too. Make friends with another group to overthrow a government, then eliminate the competition.

"....Twenty-two are believed to be of Pakistani descent."

Pakistanis -- AGAIN...

This is getting very old...
I would think that Pakistanis have earned the "stay at home, asshole" designation....
