Man held on explosives charge after Heathrow arrest

Mr Spencer,

Typical of the type of Islmaophobic reaction I have come to expect of you. I mean they could have been Christian terrorists, remember Timothy McVeigh? Just because Pakistan is 97% Islamic. And the Koran incites hatred towards unbelievers. Pah, typical.

Update on the (potential) treason by Eason Jordan in sliming our troops in the War on Terror in Iraq:

So I suppose they still don't know the motive of these men in the masks, heh? Aren't the British in denial about the Islamists similar to the French? Gosh I am frightened by this picture that is developing...

Power to the bloggers!

With Eason Jorden finished, you can see that WE can make a difference. But the 'war on terror' farce has gone on for too long! This morning I saw Alexander Downer on TV repeating the same old trash about 'war on terror'- but just a minute later about Habib (just released from Gitmo) who appaerently can 'not be prevented' from receiving money for appearing at 60 minutes tonight! The word 'Jihad' never came up!

This guy went to Afghanistan to find 'a good muslim school' for his sons! Their lies are a way of life, their deceit is obvious, their objective is clear! This is a time of war and Habib (and all his fellow terrorists) should be with their 72 virgins by now. To bring them back into the community 'voicing concern about their activities' (Downer) is just not good enough.

"As many arrows,loosed several ways,come to one mark...so may a thousand actions,once afoot,end in one purpose." William Shakespeare

Good work for police and another islamist detained, how rare!

Expect this guy was coming to Britain to find a 'good Islamic School' for his sons! By mistake, he brought in explosives instead of fireworks and being a Muslim he was targeted by Police..
Sarcasm off/

By the way see a Jeweller has been held hostage and robbed by gang in Britain, one of 'em wearing a burka!! Petrol was poured over two members of family with threatening to set alight to them in front of two young children...This crime has Islamic hallmarks.
Muslim Boys [&Girls] maybe...

I'm so glad that the Taqiyya-scam in Florida by a Muslim group was cancelled on the radio when the "Lets discuss Jesus" hatefest tried to lure in Christian to be forced to sit and hear how their really Muslims and Jesus isn't the Messiah.
The above link shows the CAIR story and how they still don't get it,building bridges is about accepting pluralism and not pre-supposing
that it's everyone else that's the bigot and they need to be shown they're wrong.
CAIR and many Muslims burned their bridges long ago and 9/11 showed they had no plan to re-build
any burnt bridge,they chose to not tell us the bridge was gone,and sat back and watched us plunge to our death with absolutely no guilt since it wasn't "True" muslims that took out the bridge.

CAIR is now trying to censor Canadian media
through threats if Global doesn't run the Sutherland PSA prior to Fox's show "24".
This arrogant self-rightous unelected private body wants to impose Islam on Canadians and not only control what I watch but what I'm forced to see as part of educating me so I don'r becaome an Islamophobe.
CAIR-Canada has chosen to no longer demand Sharia Courts in Canada for female Muslims,they dropped the term "Sharia" since the real Islam has been exposed on world wide News networks.
The internet and TV has taken away the power of Imam's to brainwash Muslims into giving up their freedom and human rights,the Quran is no longer the only source of literature for the poor and uneducated Arabs in the middle East.

The Coptic Assoc. press release on Tuesday will be worth watching even if just for the
chance to see Ibrahim Hooper and CAIR squirm
around while trying to explain away the mass murder of a Christain family ala'Jihadist style in an American household that used to be safe
from hate and bigotry.

UMMAGUMMA
Story is on BBC England not U.K which makes me suspicious it is about 'Muslims' which are always hidden in 'England'rather than on U.K section which more people would be likely to read...

Again OT
Despite Record of Atrocities, U.S. Moves to Normalize Ties with Indonesia Military

Fri Feb 11,10:50 AM ET World - OneWorld.net

Jim Lobe, OneWorld US

WASHINGTON, D.C., Feb 11 (OneWorld) - U.S. human rights groups are expressing concern over reports that the Bush administration is preparing to renew the Indonesian armed forces' eligibility to participate in a key training program despite continuing reports of abuses committed by the army in the tsunami-devastated province of Aceh.
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites) reportedly told key lawmakers last week that she will soon "certify" that the armed forces, called the TNI, is cooperating fully in the investigation of the 2002 murder of two U.S. schoolteachers in West Papua in 2002.
Under U.S. law, that certification is the sole condition that must be met in order for Jakarta to qualify for US$600,000 for the International Military Education and Training (IMET) program from which it was suspended in 1992.
But human rights groups and others that have followed the case say that a certification is not justified and that, in any event, the military's human rights record, particularly in Aceh and West Papua, has not improved enough to reward the TNI with what is widely regarded as a "Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval" from Washington.
"The amount of money for IMET may be small, but it has symbolic importance," said John Miller, spokesperson for the East Timor (news - web sites) Action Network (ETAN). "The Indonesian military will view any restoration of IMET as an endorsement of business as usual, (which) has been nothing less than brutal human rights violations and impunity for crimes against humanity."
"Saying the Indonesian military is cooperating doesn't make it so," said Abigail Abrash Walton of the Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Center for Human Rights.
"The Indonesian government has not cooperated fully with the FBI (news - web sites) investigation of the brutal murders of the two American teachers at the Freeport (McMoran) copper and gold mine in West Papua," she added. "At the same time, the U.S. Justice Department (news - web sites) apparently has shown a remarkable lack of initiative in investigating evidence showing Indonesian military involvement in the killings."
The Bush administration has long been eager to normalize military ties with Indonesia, which were severed altogether in September 1999 after the TNI and TNI-backed militias rampaged through East Timor killing hundreds of people and destroying much of the territory after its inhabitants voted overwhelmingly in favor of independence from Jakarta.
Since 9/11, the administration has gradually renewed ties by providing aid through new anti-terrorism accounts, resuming joint military exercises, and inviting Indonesian officers to participate in regional military conferences.
The rapprochement reached a new high after the December 26 tsunami, which killed as many as 200,000 people in strife-torn Aceh province, when Washington sent an aircraft carrier task force to take part in relief operations alongside Indonesian soldiers.
Washington has long seen the archipelago as a strategic asset in Southeast Asia, both as a counterweight to China and as the sovereign over key sea lanes and choke points through which every day tankers carry vital resources, such as Middle East oil on its way to industrial heavyweights Japan, South Korea (news - web sites) and China.
Since 9/11, Indonesia, the world's most populous predominantly Muslim nation, has also been seen both as a moderate model for the Islamic world and, more darkly, as a possible recruiting ground for radical Islamist forces.
At the same time, the Indonesian armed forces, which Washington first began supporting heavily in the late 1950s, has been long been seen as the one effective--if corrupt and often brutal--national institution in an archipelago that spreads across thousands of miles and includes hundreds of islands.
Despite protests from human rights organizations over the years, Washington maintained its support and generally resisted Congressional pressure to condition aid and sales to the military on improvements in its performance.
After a massacre by Indonesian troops of more than 100 peaceful demonstrators in East Timor in 1991, however, Congress cut off Indonesia's eligibility for IMET and to buy certain kinds of "lethal" military equipment. Under Congressional pressure, the Clinton administration then severed the relationship with TNI altogether in 1999.
Faced with the Bush administration's appeals to resume a relationship, however, Congress has, since 2001, agreed to soften its initially tough conditions for restoring certain kinds of military assistance. Congress has insisted only that the TNI fully cooperate with the investigation of the schoolteacher killings, which occurred in an ambush, according to survivors of the attack, by eight or nine unidentified assailants using automatic weapons that Papuan guerrillas are not known to have.
Indonesian police initially pointed the finger at the TNI, but the U.S. Justice Department, which became involved in the investigation, last June indicted a Papuan man, Anthonius Wamang, for being one of the triggermen. Wamang, who Jakarta claims was tied to local guerrillas (OPM) and was interviewed by the FBI, remains at large, however, and has never been arrested in Indonesia.

According to local human rights activists, he also has ties to the Indonesian military as a business partner of TNI's special forces unit, Kopassus, which has a particularly brutal reputation. In fact, in an August 2004 television interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Wamang said he got his ammunition for the attack from TNI soldiers. He reportedly told the FBI that TNI officers knew about the ambush in advance.

"It seems that there has been absolutely no progress since June in resolving this criminal attack," said Abrash Walton. "How can the State Department credibly claim that more than seven months of stonewalling by Indonesian authorities constitutes 'cooperation'?"

Edward McWilliams, who served as chief of the political section at the U.S. embassy in Jakarta from 1996 to 1999, said he was also concerned. "Right now, the only leverage we have to ensure the FBI investigation can go forward is the IMET ban," he told OneWorld. "The notion that (the administration) would give up this leverage now on the eve of a very serious FBI effort is simply inexplicable."

Last month, Patsy Spier, the widow of one of the victims who was also wounded in the ambush, told Associated Press that the case "should remind us why the training funds were held up in the first place. Theyve got to be willing to bring to justice those people who committed crimes [in Aceh, Papua, and East Timor] and are still in service...The whole point is just to have a proper investigation."

I am puzzled as to how CAIR has so much clout, especially with this administration, and it's war on terrorism. Why is DoJ,FBI, CIA, Homeland Security standing down and caving into CAIR.

If this was a Kerry Democrat administation, most bloggers would be screaming murder, complicity and cowardice, but it isn't. No effective voice of complaint or dissent from the right, just handwringing and apologia.

Conservative, patriotic and Christian Republicans run the government, not those lefist,liberal democrats and yet the terrorists and their supporters are getting away with literal murder.

And you can't blame it on the "liberal" press, Bush doesn't care about the press, the press is NOT liberal (though reporters might be) and look what happened to Eason and Rather.

Regardless of the press, we have political leadership, which does what it more or less wants regardless of opinion.

So why does CAIR have so much power and influence, anyway? All it will take is an FBI raid to close it's doors,look what happened to Sami al Arian,and how is that subversive Islamic literature can be allowed entry into the country, much less distributed through mosques?

Where is President Bush and his DoJ and Homeland Security?

Michael Moore says that there is no terrorist threat. He won awards for his movie saying terrorism is just a Bush plot to control oil. Nothing to worry about. Typical liberal talking out of both sides of his mouth.

Some people get it. Dick Morris for example. Check out farenHYPE 911 they pull no punches on who the enemy is.

'and how is that subversive Islamic literature can be allowed entry into the country, much less distributed through mosques?' ~ giaour

Most likely in the same fashion subversive communist propaganda worked its way into the country in the 40s, 50s and especially the 60s.

I do understand, giaour. islamic terrorism/jihad, is even more of a threat to liberal gains, as it is to the West in general. So long as these guys keep it up (and it has been said, this could take at least another decade), the current liberal hopes of throwing the baby out with the bathwater are being set back ( by at Least a decade if not two or three). However the rest of us prefer to 'conserve' the baby and just toss the bathwater.

I neglected to add, I know understand why you need to paint anyone further to your left than Rather in the demeaning, denigrating, demonizing, destructive, derogatory, damning fashion which you do: you are attempting to set yourselves up as the legitmate alternative to both islam And anyone/Everyone not following your agenda.

CAIR-CAN threatening Global TV[ owned by Canwest Communications] is also suing The National Post owned by Canwest as well as David Frum [aei.org]...

Seems CAIR/CAIR-CAN are uncomfortable with dhimmis not paying respect....
