plot to blow up new york tunnels

july 8th, 2006

i was glancing through this: routine stuff about clever american intelligence busting up yet another dastardly terrorist plot. sylvester stallone could do this in his sleep.

but then i read the last sentence. the kingpin of the operation was planning to go get trained, where else, but at the 'valued ally in the war on terrorism', which just got a fresh supply of F-16s. i am sorry, but i was ROTFLing. i had been amazed there was a terrorist operation that had no connection with the 'land of the pure'; i wonder no more.

Note that 8 of 10 nations on this list are failed extremist islamic states (with the exception of Bulgaria and Angola).

Says something, huh?
