THE London Tube bombers plotted to kill the Australian cricket team by spraying sarin gas into their change rooms during last year's Ashes series, a friend of the terrorists claims.
Al-Qaida commanders allegedly ordered the suicide bombers to get jobs at Edgbaston Cricket Ground and wipe out the Australian and England players.
They were instructed to release sarin gas, a highly toxic nerve agent that is one of the world's most dangerous chemical weapons.
But cricket-loving terrorist Shehzad Tanweer apparently objected and instead the terrorist cell perpetrated the July 7 underground Tube and bus bombings that killed 56 people and injured more than 700.
Play in the Second Test at Edgbaston, in Birmingham, started as scheduled on August 4 and England went on to win the thriller by two runs and level the series 1-1.

Does this mean the Islamo-Fascist terrorists will come to America and try to kill American celebrities, mostly Hollywood movie stars? I don't even know how to feel about that. Could I really cry if the terrorists blew up the Academy Awards, ironically killing hundreds and hundreds of deeply entrenched liberal anti-americans who constantly speak out against stupid red-Staters, and Republicans and President Bush, and constantly oppose the war on terror? Could I really manage even just one crocadile tear if Alec Baldwin or Susan Surandon or Whoopie Goldberg or Barbara Streiand or Sean Penn or Tim Robbins or Martin Sheen or Mat Damon or Ben Afleck or all of them were killed in a terrorist attack? I'm not sure. I would be angry that an attack again happened on American soil, but I don't see how I could give a fussy rip that many elitist disconnected anti-American liberal celbrities were killed in a terrorist attack. It would be the greatest kind of irony if many anti-war liberal celebs started getting knocked off the the terrorists, which the celebs oppose the war which fights those terrorists. It doesn't get anymore bitterly ironic then that.
Now if the terrorists start knocking off professional athletes, which mostly keep their mouths shut about politics, then, then the terrorists are screwed. That would create such outrage among most Americans that opposition to the war would disolve in an instant, like Bill Clinton's crotch when Hillary enters the room.

Cricket Ping!
Many of us who followed this tremendous series between England & Australia back in the summer of 2005 had no idea what dangers lurked beneath for those fine sportsmen.
If you would like on or off the Cricket Ping list, please let me know.
