Good Post!

However, our Euro-Cousins, with their absolute genius for missing the obvious, will never send their Muslims home to Islamic Countries.

They ought to get a fleet of old Greyhounds and start shuttling ...through Turkey to Syria. Round'em up, head'em up, Move'em out! They don't like it? ... Raw Hide!

About another millenium or two of seasoning in the sand, and these boys will be ready for another go at living in the West.

"Last year, German and other European officials criticized as meaningless and misleading the tendency of American authorities to issue repeated warnings of possible attacks."

Gee....I wonder who they will NOW turn to for help. Even the German's new found knowledge is said to be based on American intelligence. They will want to be our new best friends now, I suppose? Well, better late than never, I guess.

The other suspects on trial are two Algerians and a Dutchman of Ethiopian origin.

A Dutch citizen of Ethiopian origin is not, I assure you, a "Dutchman".

Now the Europeans are beginning to tighten up. The next few years will be a bummer, but it's high time they got the message. You can't schlep that kind of hostility.

It's amazing that they persisted in their complacency for as long as they did, after watching the World Trade Center go down in real time, on top of real people.

The question is why did the Europeans let this islamic terrorist network establish itself in their countries? I can only come to the conclusion that the powers that be wanted it there. With Europe plunged into fear and chaos, will they then be able to seize control of the government and the economy?

The war between Islam and the West has begun. The major battles are still in the future. It will last for 100 years. Who will be the victor?

Yeah, all they need is some Lebensraum, honest, really. Yeah, right.

Political leaders and police investigators across Europe have concluded that the threat of terrorism from Al Qaeda and other radical Islamic groups is more serious than they had earlier assumed and may take years to neutralize.

There is no threat. Islam is the religion of peace. Now go stick your heads even deeper in the sand.

Blame desire for cheap Muslim labor. Especially Turkish. Add to this an insane multi culturalism that wants to dilute and ruin any "white" nation including our own. Yes Virginia, the US is still basically a white European nation. Also the Euros are becoming godless enough to cede their nations to Muslims with their high birthrates.

Native European birthrates are pathetic. They have serious problems. Add abortion to the mix too.

One man, a scourge on his own people, did recognize and attempt to reign in radical islam. Look what happened to Milosevic. The irony of his ongoing tribunal trial goes unmentioned (but widely noted.)

Jean-Louis Bruguière, France's senior investigative judge dealing with terrorism, is among those who insist that Europe is at greater risk. "There is a probability of an attack in Europe in the coming months," he said. "The threat is much wider than Al Qaeda. It is like a spreading cancer. There is no structure, absolutely none."

Stupid B@st@rd. It's Islam stupid. Oops, I forgot, it is a hate crime to say so.

As the North Vietnamese used to say, fish swim in the ocean. You can't have successful guerillas or terrorists without a population that is friendly to them and willing to help hide them, shelter them, and feed them. In Europe, that population is already in place. It is a built-in terrorist network with millions of supporters who will be only too glad to help their fellow Muslims bring down European civilization.

Well, at least they're starting to wake up. I figured they wouldn't get it until the fashion houses started putting designer burkas on the fashion runways in Paris.

The scalpel of the abortionist is the sword of Islam.

The "sick man of Europe" is now ... Europe itself.

I don't think al Queda even NEEDS to attack Europe.
