Australia man targeted LA Airport

From News.com.au, :

FRENCH anti-terrorist prosecutor Jean-Louis Bruguiere claims a mystery man in Australia was connected to the "millennium bombing plot" to blow up Los Angeles airport in 2000. Judge Bruguiere said telephone intercepts had linked a suspect in Sydney to Algerian Ahmed Ressam, who was arrested in December 1999 in Canada before he could cross the US border in a vehicle with explosives, large amounts of money and fake identities.

He said the Sydney man was identified during an extensive international sting operation involving his office. The information was passed on to Australian authorities by the French counter-terrorism branch, the DST.

But the claim has puzzled local law enforcement officials. The Australian Federal Police refused to comment last night and NSW police said they had not previously heard of any Australian link.

DST liaises with ASIO, which is understood to have dealt with the referral without involving police.

The millennium plot was considered one of the most serious efforts to be foiled by authorities since al-Qa'ida emerged as a global terror menace in the early 1990s.

US courts have been told it was planned by the al-Qaeda hierarchy to cause massive symbolic damage at the turn of the millennium.

No surprise if there was a Sydney link. We're infested with that scum here too. Nowhere is safe. We've got a lovely Islamic area of Sydney, unliveable to anybody not Muslim of course. No-go area even to police. Cops go in there, they can expect to be swarmed by beligerent, threatening mobs of Muslim men, and the women can be just as feral too. Oh the joys of diversity! No surprise if amongst these crims we've got terrorists too, plotting and planning destruction and death. Probably living on welfare too. Or suffering with a 'bad back' and on a disability pension.

If ASIO knows about it, good for them for keeping quiet. Can't go blabbing this to everybody and his dog. Hard enough to extract this vermin since their fellow Muslims won't help (closing ranks of course). Muslim first and foremost. Australian, only when it's convenient or profitable.
