Dr. Mohammed: Take two car bombs and call me in the morning
by JohnHuang2
Two failed terrorist plots in the U.K. back-to-back. No wonder Democrats are so gung-ho on liberating those sweet little darlings at Guantanamo al-Qaeda needs backup. To their credit, liberals havent called for a ban on Jeeps, Mercedes, gas canisters, nails nor cell phones. Even more surprising, idiot Sen. Richard Lugar did not call on Gordon Brown to withdraw from London and Glasgow.
Focusing on what matters, Sen. Pat Leahy responded to the bomb plots by demanding more paperwork on the nine fired attorneys. Voters profoundly give a hoot about those nine losers. Lame duck Bush responded to Leahy by commuting Scooter Libbys sentence and wishing Leahy a Merry Fitzmas! I wish Leahy would follow Cheneys suggestion.
As happened after the recent foiled attempt to blow up JFK, the presss reaction to the London and Glasgow incidents was to spend hours and hours making sure the plots were not the work of nuns from the local Sisters of St. Joseph, while denying as long as possible that Muslim fanatics were involved. Couldnt be those nice people having a Religion of Peace. Wouldnt wanna drag Allah through the mud. Then, finally, suspicion turned to the real culprits Bush and Blair.
If I get this straight, homicidal Islamic maniacs wanted to blow up a nightclub in London and an airport in Glasgow because Tony Blair is now Mideast envoy, or because Tony Blair is becoming Catholic, or because Rushdie was Knighted, or because English schools teach the Holocaust, or because girls go to school in Afghanistan, or because Iraq has a constitution all this despite growing evidence Islamic terrorism is mainly caused by . . . Islamic terrorists.
ABC News quickly followed up by claiming on its Web site that it had bombshell information that Bush officials had received intelligence reports two weeks ago warning of terror attacks in Glasgow and other places, targeting airport infrastructure and aircraft, but that the warnings apparently never reached officials in Scotland . . . Obviously, Bush knew ahead of time. He had to know at least two weeks ahead of time in order to buy the nails, the gas canisters, have Scooter Libby rig the Mercedes and the Jeep and hire the Islamist chaps willing to die for Bush like the guy shouting Allah! Allah! with his body ablaze. The burning Bushie and his fellow traveler were trying to blow up hundreds of school children departing Glasgow for summer holiday, (WSJ, 7/2). Yes, if only we opened a dialogue with these people and asked them to stop. Its so critical to winning the fight!
Applying their superb instincts, liberals in the media kept calling the London and Glasgow plotters homegrown, even after evidence emerged that only one of them was born in the U.K. and that the homegrowners were actually lovely guest workers imported from the Middle East most of them guest working as well-paid doctors, which oddly (once again) didnt fit the liberals cherished profile of terrorists as poor and impoverished and alienated, a situation which only could be fixed by raising taxes on the rich. Exactly these nuts douse themselves in gasoline and set themselves alight because theyre unhappy with current marginal tax rates. Riiiiight. 3:13 AM 7/5/2007 So now libbies complain hysterically that the car bomb is the new weapon of choice for terrorists because of Bushs war in Iraq, where there are car bombs. There was a car bomb in the first World Trade Center bombing. There was a car bomb in the Oklahoma City bombing. There were car bombs in the 83 Beirut bombing, the 96 Khobar Tower bombing, the 98 U.S. embassy bombings in Africa. In 1920, a horse-drawn wagon was used by terrorists clearly inspired by Bushs war in Iraq to bomb Wall Street. The IRA also used car bombs. Yes, the car bomb is the new weapon of choice because of Iraq.
On the other hand, the AP reported Monday that an al-Qaeda car bomb blew up at an ancient temple in Yemen, killing 9 people almost all of them Spanish tourists. Must be Spains massive troop presence in Iraq.
Liberals have spent so much time and energy making excuses for terrorists they wouldnt know a terrorist if he smuggled an explosive device into a news studio and detonated it on live TV! Oh wait that was Keith Olbermanns head (after the Scooter Libby announcement).
To liberals, terrorist means someone who works for Fox News.
To normal Americans, terrorists try to blow up nightclubs packed mostly with women (as in the London plot) and blow up airports packed with school children on summer vacation (as in the Glasgow plot). Im waiting patiently for that Washington Post headline, Women and Children targeted Ill let you know as soon as I see it.
Its interesting that by Monday night, experts were claiming the London-Glasgow plots were just the warm-up acts, and the chap who set himself ablaze would probably agree. But buy into the warm-up theory and you buy into the goofy theory (beloved at the New York Times) that knocking off 5,000+ al-Qaeda heavies since 9/11 hasnt put the teensiest crimp on capabilities nor forced the al-Qaeda Human Resources Department bigshots to deal with mounting labor shortages for non-Iraq operations, made worse because the shortages are increasingly at the low end of the skill curve given the high attrition rates in Iraq. Of the 8 bagged in the U.K. terror probe so far, 7 are doctors the A-listers of the al-Qaeda health care service.
When the creme de la creme of the fatwa-set (docs) are having to carry out the menial, run-of-the-mill bombs-for-virgins operations usually the grunt work of Wahhabi chumps it speaks of labor problems and the extent to which al-Qaedas been degraded operationally. But you go to fatwa with the docs you have.
The typical cell has a master bomb-maker but the docs seem to have rigged the stuff up themselves, which is why none of the bombs went off as intended. In the Glasgow gig, the docs the same little Gandhis behind the London plot knew the cops were hot on their trail so ramming their Jeep Cherokee into airport bollards looks more like a random, panicky last minute thing rather than Jihad Plan A. As for recruitment, its hard to see how foiled attacks will be much help. Some of the smart-set yuk-yuk about amateur hour, but what theyre actually seeing is how even the best organized and funded group of Muslim fanatics is no match for the Great Satan. Years of warmonger Bushs flypaper strategy in Iraq and Afghanistan has forced the little darlings into a life of cave-hopping and being on-the-lam so sad!
Again, its hard to argue with the raw numbers: 7 out of 10 al-Qaeda honchos have been killed or captured. (Well nab the rest of them next year when they address the Democrat convention.)
Stateside, the closest thing weve seen to an attack against the United States is a Michael Moore movie. The point of all this isnt, dont worry, threats over rather its, hit the snooze and itll be more than two skyscrapers next time. Even in the best of times for al-Qaeda the Clinton years 9/11 was six years in the planning.
Anyway, that's...
My two cents

No More Mowing
READ:
Luke 10:38-42One thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part. Luke 10:42
The mayor of a small town in Kentucky stopped mowing his lawn in 2005. He has put up a sign on his property that reads: There are more important things in life than tall grass.
He said that he has several reasons for not cutting the grass, one of which is his wifes death from cancer. That loss caused him to reflect on the priorities of life. He enjoys just sitting in the evenings and observing the wild flowers, squirrels, and birds that are now coming to his yard. A member of the city council remarked, If he likes it like that, its fine. I kind of feel like maybe he is right. Maybe there are more important things than mowing grass.
The mayor gives us some food for thought about priorities. What we do with our time shows what we feel is important. In our Bible reading for today, Martha was distracted with much serving (Luke 10:40). Mary, however, took the time to sit at Jesus feet and listen to His teaching (v.39). Perhaps she realized that she wouldnt have many more opportunities to learn from Jesus.
Sometimes responsibilities like washing dishes, mowing the lawn, or working extra hours on a project need to wait so that we can spend time with the Lord or family or friends. That may be whats more important.
Important as your task may be
The work you must fulfill
Be sure you keep that human touch
If you would do Gods will. D. De Haan
Helping someone in Jesus name is your most important work for the day.

Makes us look at ourselves and really question what our priorities are. Made me think that’s for sure.

Excellent analysis as usual JH2. Nice to start the day after an attack free 7/4 with a chuckle.
Oh, and about car bombs....when I was in Argentina in 1969 they used car bombs during a general strike.
