Will England act like France or like America?

Up to now, it seems they've been splitting the difference, with a tilt in the direction of the USA.

Why are there in the United Kingdom in the first place?

Islam out of Britain. The BNP is right on that count at least.

Should have read, "Why are there Muslims..."

How are we to know the explosives are fake? If I see someone with an "explosives" belt, they're gonna get shot...Period. I'm not going to risk my life and the lives of my loved ones on the chance that they were a "protester".

Both Sheikh Omar (the vermin behind the Daniel Pearl murder) and the shoe bomber were from England. They've got big problems there.

Sorry, but the difference escapes me. France might be out spoken with its anti-Semitism., where as America, paper tiger, puts up a false front but abandons her friend and only democracy among the Middle East snakes. Time and time again, America speaks with forked tongue and faked smile while cuffing the hands of Israel.

The only friend Israel has is G-d.

I wonder how long it will be before the pro-Palestinians start blowing themselves in America? And how would America respond if something like that happened? I hate to sound insensitive, but the government should determine loyalties. And if someone has questionable loyalties to America, they should be deported or put in intern camps.

That's a very good question, Sally II. I drove through Century City a few weeks ago when President Bush was speaking at the Plaza. There was a line of police in front of the hotel, but on the other side of the street was a group of protestors, including a lot of Muslims in traditional dress, screaming "free Palestine." They could have easily driven a truck loaded with explosives up to the hotel and done a lot of damage. PC Security sucks.

British security sources say Scotland Yard and intelligence experts are worried that the suicide terrorist phenomenon could soon arrive in Britain, and local security forces lack the know-how or means to counter such a threat.

And the Jews in Britain aren't going to be able to arm to guard themselves

It doesn't sound insensitive to me.

The primary function of a nation's government is to ensure the security of it's borders and the safety of it's people. When a government has failed in this role, it's legitimacy is open to question.

We see here the simple truth that the barbarians have been allowed within the gates. Anyone foolish enough to commit such stupidity can not complain when one day the barbarians decide to rip them apart.

The U.S. has similiar failings, to be sure. The question is, what are we civilized people going to do about it? Continue listening to the politically-correct mewlings of the left, or wake up and recover the situation?

[uncbob]

I wonder how long it will be before the pro-Palestinians start blowing themselves in America?

Probably not here because the muslims living here aren't about to commit suicide

Those entering as terrorists will be aiming for large targets not like in Israel where they only kill or injure 20-50 people

I read somewhere recently that scientists have been able to implant electrodes in hte brains of rats. They then can control the rat's movements by remote control. Now why can't we implant electodes into the brains of Asians (British speak for Pakastani Muslims) and direct thier bomb laden bodies into Mosques? Seems to me the Brits could clean out the problem in a matter of months.

the concept of martyrdom could also take hold among extreme Christian right-wing organizations, and there are already some signs of this in the United States.

Where are these 'signs'?

According to FNC, FBI just released a statement that suicide bombers will begin attacking in the U.S.

"Why are there Muslims in the United Kingdom in the first place?

For the same stupid reason there are Al Qaida cells in the U.S. - STUPID WEAK IMMIGRATION LAWS. And now the U.S. and the United Kingdom are going to suffer until they get rid of those cells that exist in the United Kingdom and the U.S.

FBI: Suicide Bombers Likely in U.S.

ALEXANDRIA, VA. (AP) - Walk-in suicide bombers like those who have attacked public places in Israel will hit the United States eventually, FBI Director Robert Mueller said Monday.

``I think we will see that in the future, I think it's inevitable,'' Mueller said in response to a question during a speech to the National Association of District Attorneys meeting in suburban Alexandria, Va.

Mueller said the degree of fanaticism an informant must exhibit to get into the inner circle of a terrorist group makes it difficult for law enforcement agencies to penetrate such organizations and prevent such attacks.

``I wish I could be more optimistic,'' he said.

Mueller's prediction follows Vice President Dick Cheney's warning Sunday that because no specific information is available, the United States is finding it difficult to respond to the latest intelligence hints that al-Qaida may be planning another attack.

Where the hell did that swipe at the right wing come from? It's like brushing their teeth right after rolling out of bed, they do it everyday.
