One naturally wonders how much of this is going on here in the USA.  When you fly across our great land, it's quickly apparent how very much open space there is....with so very many places to train or to hide.

Please say an extra prayer for our dear British Friends, as their great nation is under attack both from within and without, as is ours.

These creeps are like roaches multiplying in every dark spot they can find.

Since 9/11 people have forgotten how wicked they really are and how fortunate we are to have a leader like George Bush determined to hunt them down and eradicate them.

One would think there would be more support in Europe for closing off the borders to these people than there is.

ON THE INTERNET:

OSINT.INTERNET-HAGANAH.com: "ONLY THE MOST WILLFUL FORUM OF BLINDNESS...could cause one to fail to notice the links between the Chechen jihadis and the global jihad." (November 11, 2007)

BBC NEWS: "CHECHEN REBEL URGES GLOBAL JIHAD" by Richard Galpin, BBC NEWS, Grozny (SNIPPET: "A Chechen Muslim rebel leader is reported to have described the US, Britain and Israel as legitimate targets in a jihad, or holy war.") (Last updated October 31, 2007, 22:40 GMT)

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The film referred to one as a suicide bomber whilst two others were seen crawling, commando-style, through the snow and undergrowth near Langdale, Cumbria, praising Allah and the Chechen Mujahideen.

In Rahman’s house, police found hunting knives, two-way radios, GPS equipment and propaganda - including a document referring to terrorist finishing schools called How Can I Train Myself for Jihad?”

One would think. However, these people can now vote. This situation is not so very different from that in the U.S.

This is the weakness of democracies.

Well, to be honest this looks more like a pair of wannabe goofs crawling through the snow dressed in (snicker!) black. Perhaps there’s more to it than the films show but putting these clowns up against a determined Girl Scout troop, I’d bet on the girls. IMHO.

From the article:

She said Rahman played a vital role supporting jihadists in Pakistan and acting as a "pipeline" to the UK.

(edit)

Detective Chief Superintendent Tony Porter, of Greater Manchester Police Counter-Terrorism Unit, said: "This man provided support to people determined to carry out terrorist acts.

"He was clearly intent on drawing others into his network."

Apparently there's considerably more going on than what's shown in the videos.

Consider also that the 9/11 attacks were not perpetrated by hardened, highly trained commandos but by some disaffected middleclass jerkoffs with boxcutters and a very few flying lessons.  What they didn't have on their own was provided by their connections and their organization.

An excellent point. The ordinary-looking terrorist is the most dangerous one. These clowns are more than capable of backshooting the innocent, of that I've no doubt.

But I did have to giggle when they called themselves "commandos." ;-)

Agreed, but I would wish to politely suggest that what's important is not whether they are actually true commandos, as judged, for example, by the training standards of the Army Rangers, the Navy Seals or the British SAS, but what's important is that they THINK they are.

And that gives them the motivation and the impetus to do some damage.

I have no doubt that any true commando or any other highly trained warfighter will say that a huge part of being a professional in that field is having a proper frame of mind.

I would wager that such a true professional would look at those idiots crawling around in the snow and on the one hand snicker at their amateurish antics, but their frame of mind would make anyone pause.

As many military officers have said in regards to the war on terror, what makes it really hard for us to fight is that we are fighting people who are not afraid to die.  That changes the entire equation.

“As many military officers have said in regards to the war on terror, what makes it really hard for us to fight is that we are fighting people who are not afraid to die.”

OPINION:

That’s correct.

The jihadi embraces darkness and death.
We embrace The Light and life.
