"Why is this being reported."
Because Chertoff said it.
Watch for the British criticism to follow.
This has happened before with a British incident. We have leaky intel agencies. (Unless the Brits already released this).
No wonder the British wouldn't share the details of their Iraq/uranium intel.
God bless the spys and soldiers who fight against the muslim fanatics.
Infiltration is the key to the whole war on terror.
OMG!
They never change tactics, do they?!
To eat the AQ's up from the inside with paranoia. The more energy they spend looking for moles, the less time they spend on attacks.
No doubt.
But... what if these plots happened? how are we going to retaliate?... are human rights applicable to people who doesnt care about their own human lives?
... could also be because we want the cells to devour
themselves with paranoia. This actually worked fairly
well at keeping the Cutthroat Cult busy chasing their
tails in the past.
That is EXACTLY the reason!
Now, nobody will know who to trust, maybe a couple of question marks get bumped off, and there's lots of turmoil for a year or so.
Yeah, why not? Good grief, those nasty agents pretended to be one of them. That must have violated some or many of their rights don't ya think? The media is on the side of the enemy. We know this. The question is, when will someone do something about them?
They never change tactics, do they?!
Below is a search of Free Republic theads on the term BOJINKA.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/keyword?k=bojinka
Here's what Wikipedia has to say about it.
Wikipediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oplan_Bojinka
Oplan Bojinka (also known as Operation Bojinka, Project Bojinka, Bojinka Plot, Bojinga, possibly from Arabic: بجنكة – slang in many dialects for explosion and pronounced Bo-JIN-ka, except in Egyptian where it is Bo-GIN-ka) was a planned large-scale attack on airliners in 1995.Several media outlets, including TIME Asia [1], claim that the word Bojinka means "loud bang" or "explosion" in Serbo-Croatian. In Croatian, "bočnica"[2] translates into English as "boom". Khalid Shaikh Mohammed fought with Muslim fighters in Bosnia and supported this effort financially [3]. Endnote 7 of Chapter 5 of the 9/11 Commission Report states that Khalid Shaikh Mohammed claims that "bojinka" is "a nonsense word he adopted after hearing it on the front lines in Afghanistan." In English, the acronym "BOHICA" for 'Bend Over Here It Comes Again' is common military slang which refers to an incoming enemy attack, often bombs and is also used in online chat, e-mail, or newsgroup postings.
Not all media or text that refer to Oplan Bojinka will call it by that name.
The term can refer to the "airline bombing plot" alone, or that combined with the "Pope assassination plot" and the "CIA plane crash plot". The first refers to a plot to destroy 11 airliners on January 21 and 22, 1995, the second refers to a plan to kill Pope John Paul II on January 15, 1995, and the third refers a plan to crash a plane into the CIA headquarters in Fairfax County, Virginia and other buildings. Oplan Bojinka was prevented on January 6 and 7, 1995, but some lessons learned were apparently used by the planners of the September 11 attacks. This article will cover all three plans.
The money handed down to the plotters originated from Al-Qaida, an international Islamic militant organization which was then based in Sudan. Philippine authorities say that Operation Bojinka was developed by Ramzi Yousef and Khalid Shaikh Mohammed while they were in Manila, Philippines in 1994 and early 1995.
bttt
I;m pretty sure that they wouldn't give it to the press if they didn't want the terrorists to know it.
PsyOPs are part of the equation against the Terrorists......
This info should never have seen the light of day, IMO.
Ditto, the prominent *Echelon data-mining* and *SWIFT financial-tracking* stories, and a thousand other stories, we didn't hear about.
Grrrrrrrr...
They should report all the flights on which they had tickets so those whose lives were saved by these arrests know it. The MSM won't want to report it, but articles about those who didn't die, instead of articles about those who did, will prove too strong a story to suppress.
Chortle
Strategery and whatnot :)
