War On Terror: The Mercedes Jihad in London smashes the media-peddled myth that the terrorists are poor, uneducated and oppressed. At least five of the suspects are Muslim doctors.
Since 9/11, the PC elite have lectured us to avoid drawing a connection between the terrorists and Islam. Don’t blame their religion, we’re told. Blame poverty and ignorance.
The Islamic apologists claim there’s nothing in the Quran that justifies jihadi violence in the name of Islam. Apparently these devout doctors — all of whom practiced in Western hospitals — have found something in the Muslim holy book that does.

Medical centers put up their guard after being told they could be hit soon after an attack

Counter-terrorism officials have warned New Jersey hospitals that they themselves could become targets of terrorists in the minutes after a large-scale attack. By becoming “secondary targets,” the hospitals would be crippled or rendered unable to treat victims of an earlier attack.
The warning, communicated through the state Department of Health and Senior Services, has caused many hospitals to change the way they are doing business. In addition to their primary mission of patient care, they are being forced to devise plans to protect their facilities and supplies, including pharmaceuticals. “Hospitals have been asked to improve their security, preparedness, and to test and drill,” state Health Commissioner Clifton R. Lacy said yesterday. In addition, the state Office of Counter-Terrorism issued a bulletin Monday instructing ambulance operators to guard against suspicious people or behavior. Within the last week, workers at two New Jersey rescue squads and one emergency room reported receiving peculiar inquiries, said Sidney Caspersen, head of the state’s Counter-Terrorism Office. “These concern us enough to tell the community to be more vigilant regarding ambulances and other emergency vehicles,” Caspersen said. “That means not leaving them unattended and so forth. And if you see suspicious activity, notify us or your local police.”
In the first incident, three men “of Middle Eastern appearance” went to a volunteer ambulance squad headquarters and inquired about obtaining credentials to operate an emergency vehicle, Caspersen said. They then offered to pay to have the process expedited, he said. In the second instance, which Caspersen said occurred outside the emergency room of an Essex County hospital, a firefighter observed a man taking notes next to an ambulance. When the firefighter asked what he was doing, the man replied that he was an “ambulance mechanic” and wanted to know the location of the nearest firehouse. The firefighter asked the man for identification, and he produced a New York state driver’s license, Caspersen said.
****Finally, a man claiming to be a doctor from Pakistan approached members of an ambulance squad in Middlesex County, Caspersen said. The man asked numerous questions, including one about how fast ambulances travel.****(snip)
