More jihad in North Africa. By John Thorne for Associated Press:
RABAT, Morocco - Two suicide bombers blew themselves up Saturday in Casablanca near an American cultural center, just days after three suicide attacks stoked new fears of terrorism in this North African kingdom, an official said.
The Interior Ministry official said one woman was injured in the attacks.
The bombers killed themselves on a boulevard that runs behind an American cultural center, the official said. The American Consulate and a synagogue are also both in the neighborhood. The bombers were not being pursued by police, said the official. He spoke on condition of anonymity, citing ministry policy.
Three suicide bombers also blew themselves up Tuesday in the city, Morocco's largest. Just a day later, 33 people were killed and more than 200 injured in al-Qaida-claimed suicide car bombings in neighboring Algeria that targeted the prime minister's office and a police station.
The U.S. Embassy warned of possible new attacks in the Algerian capital on Saturday. In a statement, it said new attacks could hit near the Algiers central post office and the ENTV national television headquarters. It did not cite a source for its unconfirmed information.
In Morocco, the official news agency, MAP, said the bombers blew themselves up near a bank on the Moulay Youssef Avenue. The American consulate is on that same street. MAP said the bystander suffered light injuries.
MAP quoted an unnamed police source as saying that the bombers were driven by "despair" — because of police forces' efforts to break up terrorist cells and successes of recent weeks.
Tuesday's three bombers blew themselves up after police cornered them. A police sniper shot and killed a fourth man who authorities said appeared to be preparing to detonate explosives.
Moroccan Interior Minister Chakib Benmoussa had said Wednesday that police were still seeking three or four members of Tuesday's group.
Morocco sure is hotting up!

Just a matter of time before Morocco became a target for the Borg-o-slam assimilation. Resistance is futile - submit or else...or else war. Add the Moroccan front to the new crusades.

There they go again, trying to rationalize the irrational...

'The bombers were not being pursued by the police,' according to a source. Yes, that's the logical Islamic way to handle the situation, especially if the targets were an American cultural center and Jewish synagogue. More bombings to follow, and more excuses too..
Morocco has always been an odd man out among the members of the Arab League. Berbers are the majority of the population, though there has been no evidence of the kind of Berber anti-Arab consciousness and resentment that has been exhibited among Berbers in the Kabyle, in Algeria. Under the Sherifian dynasty that has lasted more than a millennium, the King of Morocco never was, unlike the deys of Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli, an Ottoman suzerain, and this too has given it a slightly different caste. But to Al Qaeda Morocco is just one more Muslim domain, needing to be reconquered for the True Islam, and not that of some mild Sherifian pretender who throws his country open to Western tourists, even the Club Mediterranee, and film-makers looking for a desert location. Morocco does not have oil. It needs Western tourists and those Western film-makers. Dates and couscous are not enough.
For those who will not admit it, but have noticed Morocco has become violent.
HERE IS THE REASON:
Americans complained Iraq was a disaster and wanted out. The terrorists now are being killed in Iraq by US forces in mass to clean the situation up which was intended to draw them out of peaceful kingdoms to kill them in the Iraq zone. The terrorists in Morocco and other areas seeing the US push are now staying home to blow themselves up in peaceful states.
This is the policy advocated by allot of people and this is the result. al Qaeda has evacuated a large portion of their people out already to Lebanon and you can expect now more terrorism cropping up in other areas which were peaceful due to the terrorists staying home.
This is cause and effect and is showing President Bush was absolutely correct in his Iraq policy which others are still complaining about it.
People did not want Iraq the way it was in keeping Americans safe, well the FACT IS NOW TERRORISM is coming back home to peaceful areas as Iraq is being shut down.
The end result will be terrorism in Iraq and terrorism all over the world, instead of contained in Iraq. This is the actual civics lesson today that the White House was correct and everyone else complaining has been absolutely wrong.
People get what they demand and in the end find out when it is innocent westerners dying that this is not what they want at all. It is though too late to change it as the rats are off the burning ship and are going to bite us at home now.
President Bush is not responsible for this. It is what the people have advocated and demanded.
?
OT,
Your tax dollars at work on c-span. It seems only prudent that all Americans and their children are made aware of this. BTW, anyone recognize the islamist at the end of this speech who applauds him? Yep, we let them come here and as we suspected extermination is the ultimate goal. You do not want these people in your neighborhood, city, state or country. And all of you out there who don’t live in America he is calling for extermination on a global scale. Do not let your kids or loved ones go out w/o fully understanding the threat, they might end up stuffed in a garbage can somewhere. Its one group now, but later he and his ilk will come for anyone else they deem unfit to live.
Warning, extremely disturbing video,

This sounds like good news to me. Two blown up fascists going to paradise on their own dime. Their lack of success appears to be a sign of incompetence. Let us hope that their stay in paradise is plagued by an infinite repitition of premature erruptions.

boycott tourism there and they are on their ass

More foreignb aid and NGO monies will flow.. UN "development projects" and "immigration".
Nothing will change until we ROLL UP our borders and throw the bums out!
islam is not based on "go get a job and make your own living".
We have spoken of the naming of the 'war on terror' is misnamed - well, so is 'suicide bomber'.
A 'suicide bomber' is a jihadist. If they succeed in doing their deed they are then known as shahid (martyrs). If we started naming these freaks what they truly are, in their so called religion of peace, then people won't be so confused as to what islam is all about.
I do believe I read in either the koran or the hadiths that if a jihadist finds themselves in a situation that they are outnumbered and/or outweaponed (I don't know if that is a word - but I mean that the enemy has more and advanced weapons than they do) then they should do what they have to do and then come back and fight again. I do believe this is what happened in Iraq with many of those Iraqi soldiers who went belly up - and now we find ourselves facing them again in allies and other places.
But, we are also finding that they leave to fight in other areas such as Morocco.
The koran is a great book to read if we want to know our enemy's tactics. Why don't our politicians and military leaders (ie: pentagon) read it??!! I say after all of this time that has passed - because they chose to be ignorant. I would have bought ignorance when all of this began, because even I - a dumb civilian - was ignorant. But, not now. Too much time has past. Our leaders haven't even got an idea why Jefferson had a koran. Jefferson actually wanted to find out what they were up against in his time and found out! He finally put a stop to appeasement of the barbary coast/pirates.
We need another Jefferson.
The bombers killed themselves on a boulevard, well at least they didit in a nice section of town.
islamist are biting the hands that feed them, muslims killing more muslims.. and you can bet they blame the West for this,, ie US,GB,Israel,etc..
their high birth rate does not mean much when they kill themselves faster than they can pop out of mom.

'The koran is a great book to read if we want to know our enemy's tactics. Why don't our politicians and military leaders (ie: pentagon) read it?'
---------------
I am not sure if you missed the news but the pentagon have read it, it admits the source of the extremist ideology is form the Koran. Does it take the worlds mightiest minds to work that one out or did political correctness confuse them?
About this article and other similar ones. Can not the suicide bombers just be given a land space to blow them selves up, they don't need to kill other people too, it never really helps their course it just says they are defeated and like a child that can not take it they have to spoil it by bringing other people down.
jesusislamb, thanks - I didn't realize they read it. Then ignorance is not their problem - just plain stupidity?!
Oh well, the politicians need to read it too - and then we can call them just plain old stupid too and stop giving them the benefit of the doubt.
As for jihadists blowing themselves up all by themselves. islam does not believe in people committing suicide. But they do believe that if you die while killing, or trying to kill, infidels - you will be assured of heaven. In fact, the reason why all these 'moderates' take these jihadists and parade them around is because they have become shahid (martyrs). And the shahid's family are now guaranteed heaven too. This is why I don't believe in 'moderates' anymore, nor do I believe that for some other reasons - and the main reason is that no huge group of these so called 'moderates' try to stop these murderers, but in fact are told to support it, to support those who do the actual fighting while they sit in safety (in the koran). There is a good archived article by Hugh about moderates in islam. You should take a look at the archives - very interesting stuff.
This is why they are not suicide bombers - they are jihadists.
In some cases you now hear of women blowing themselves up now. Well, usually women don't get the same benefits of a man in islam, but they tell tainted women (those who have been raped, or are tainted in some other islamic way) can redeem themselves by doing the same thing the men do by blowing themselves up and trying to kill infidels.

If you spin this islamic yarn a little further to conclusion.. rape is good.. makes more suicide bombers..
Rape for jihad!
Sick bunch of MoFoes.
I'm not sure if this helps in explaining the situation in morocco, betwen arabs and non-arabs, but from a site dedicated to N African culture, I found this :
http://www.north-of-africa.com/article.php3?id_article=197
With this excercept:
‘Berbers are not in a position of high esteem in Morocco. They are seen as backward, farmers, and not real Muslims. Within the Moroccan community in the Netherlands similar notions exist on Berbers. Berbers in the Netherlands are not proud of their culture, but try to behave as Arabic as possible, while the Arabic culture was actually imported to that region. The second generation has even more problems, since the children speak a Berber language at home and Dutch is the standard in school and neighbourhood. A foundation like ours that wants to spread Berber language andculture becomes an issue of discussion. Left wing Moroccans accuse us of being “regionalist”, and royalists accuse us of being anti-Moroccan. Because we try to promote a local language, we are called anti-Arab and against the King. From conservative circles, the mosques, they call us anti-Islamic. The Arab language is the language of Islam, so the reasoning is: a person that finds Berber language important is against Islam.’ (translated from Lindo et al. 1997: 18, appendix)

About berbers in Morocco
It's an amazigh website, so of course it's subjected to bias, but it presents a viewpoint the west needs to hear much more of when it comes to living with islamic arabs.
And from MEMRI:
http://www.thememriblog.org/blog_personal/en/806.htm
Moroccan berbers are looking for independence; no doubt the Arab Muslims will claim it's because they are rascist and nationalist. After all, how bad can the situation for berbers in Morocco and ALgeria possibly be, they will say?
I think there are too many loop holes, too many gates that deceive the moderates who read the good parts maybe dictated to them and the extremists the ones who have done more studying on it who act on its true dark nature. The dark side of the Koran overalls all the good bits peaceful ones go on about like the politicians.
Extremist views don't exists with a reason if everything is done by the book, that is why its so legitimate for the mind-hackers to operate and recruit more suicide bombers they can quote the passages, there is nothing saying fight as a nation and not alone because each has it's own mission of personal martyrdom.
The problem follows everywhere we go and where ever we are.
The Arabs are planning their own version of a Tet Offensive. Some serious event will occure, then we will see a lot of self mollification. All over.
Westerners won't know who to trust and who not.
Then...
The dark side of the Koran overalls all the good peaceful bits and the people who only see the good parts are for example European politicians.
But they know by exposing the truth that trade deals could be halted if not bring worldly anger.
So a woman is raped by their co ideologists and all she has to do to go to islamist paradise is kill non muslims. Wow, this is not a religion it’s a murder cult, you can do anything you wish and just as long as you kill, kill, kill everything is A ok. Sounds more like lets make a deal than any religion I have ever encountered. And the un as well as some of our elected officials have essentially imported an SS division into our midst. Yes its 1938 only America is the new Nazi Germany. You want to talk about wasted lives, all those who fought and died fighting the Nazis have effectively had their graves spit on by traitorous americans. Every woman in this country, these types are your mortal enemy. They desire you to embrace GM, become nothing in this country, that’s no exaggeration becoming less than NOTHING is exactly what you have to look forward to if this is not completely rolled back the perps tried and if found guilty, I say lets not dirty our hands dealing with them, deport them to any islamist country we choose and let the enemy (their friends) deal with them as they do. It appears that many women in this country are making the bed that they will share with other women until their islamist master needs them for occasional gratification. I will have to say that I have never, ever been more disgusted with the behavior of some in the USA. I told you that women would not make it 100 years before they lose it all, looks like my prediction is right on schedule, and in this case I am very sorry to be correct. Today Morocco, tomorrow your city.
I think the trade deals won't be halted because that is where many jihadists are getting their money from - the oil rich sheiks and imams or clerics, or whatever they call them. I remember that the news showed the Saudi princes holding a tv-a-thon to get donations for jihadist's families, and probably the jihadists too - I don't remember all the details. But, here is an article that shows us it hasn't stopped:
http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/008257.php
Saudi Arabians quite often tell us what we want to hear and do what they want. I have been told that some of their princes are more Westernized than others and there are so many of them that it is hard to keep track of which one does what. But, they all know what the other is doing - they just do not look at their support of jihadists as a crime since that is what their koran tells them to do in order to gain heaven - support the jihadists if you cannot fight yourself.
This reminds me of an article I read about the stopping of slavery in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and some other muslim countries. They finally got them to agree to stop slavery in, I think, 1967. Well, they are still doing it.
I read so much and google so much and don't save all the articles. So, you can google and you can probably find this agreement they made about slavery, that they are not following anymore.
But, I ramble on - I don't believe that trade will stop because the rich muslims like that money and they really don't have too much else. And the jihadists know where that money comes from. What the Europeans are trying to get a handle on is all their muslim on non-muslim crimes and that is what they are paying for - to appease the muslims to stop that. The europeans are, overall, a cowardly bunch. I find them disgusting - not only in their adoration of communist thugs, such as Che, but also in their yellowness even in confronting muslim crimes in their own countries.
This phenomenon is foreign to morocco. It is a post 9/11 phenomenon at least in Morocco. Suicide bombers were unheard of in the North African country.
Bush succeeded in radicalizing the world with his misadventures in the Middle East.
The Moroccan government is to blame too for going along with the American plan to redesign the region and turn in iton little submissive weak States. Thank God the neo-conservative agenda is failing miserably. I wonder if the Iraqi puppets inside the green zone will be humble enough to apologize to the people they hurt the most: the Iraqi people. And also seek compensation from the US, UK, Macedonia, Spain, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt.... for the destruction the afflicted on Iraq.
The talk in the not-so white-anymore house about sprteading democracy is downplayed. It is now talking about stability.
That's all for now. What say you haters of Islam, muslims, arbas, middle East.......
?: "stay the course"
The whole process of the war was wrong it could have been done another way now and goes by attacking Saddam forces only and freeing the people and making less war mistakes. The problem now are the suicide bombers who are coming in from all over the world like some Jihad fight when all this could have been over. The war was in Iraq before the Americans showed up, Saddam had war on his people too and he stood firm by putting fear in them and this attitude was in it self was a spawn for terror.
The difference now is obviously democracy is hard to implement but in a way, did it need to be democracy could it not have been Islamic rule again? I guess starting another Islamic based government goes against American and western freedoms and the worries is that Islam will just generate more dictators of hate, you don't need a war to show the difference in opinions between countries just the culture clashes express what people think from each others side of the fence there was and is enough separation there also.
The Islamic haters of this site I guess are victims of the silly social rule making Muslims that like to impose on the countries of their host that don't fit their ways. They don't make war with weapons no, but the growing bickering of this social political correctness and erosion of Christian society because of Muslim infidel-phobia separates the respect they demand if not point out who the really are and why. I think people are sick to know that underneath the growing immigration and over birth rates by people coming in from Muslims countries that for long has been oblivious to how they don’t like our ways and two think in terms of second classing the non believer and hating many social groups all at the same time. There is an air of arrogance about it all and as you can see why not many Jews or Christians in Muslims counties would feel acceptable let alone a woman free in a bathing suite. So the hate is not much a hate but the differences, Europe and the world can live on without going back to 700AD and even so some cultures before 700AD had more tolerant of one another, the truth is people have woken up to know Muhammad was not a very nice man. The case is as a personal opinion that maybe people form different cultures don't do integration favours; if it’s the economical material goods it works as money and goods is universal but as one family nation it fails socially eventually. Either everyone agrees on one thing or a governmental system it works well, if there are conflicting views as the Muslims in the UK or America or the Americans in Iraq then the theory is true and new wars will boil. Maybe there should be boarders, and let one belief system stay in their country until they really understand each other to migrate as the same level of understanding; all it takes is a few people like from 9/11 to start national wars off and it has, their ignorance of culture allowed them to feel free to do these acts on the infidel because things did not suite them. If people knew and understood that maybe some people don't respect democracy and don't want to know, then they may as well be an enemy as the Muslims put it as infidels if we were in their countries. We need the same equivalents just to keep ahead of the dangers in our waters, but it does not mean we agree but it can mean we are more at peace.
In this day and age since the war in Iraq began we have to say just finnish the job and do as intended to do as there is too much loss at stake. Bombs will go off and bombs go off anyway if a Muslim country has some infidel nightclub open anyway, not like the attitudes will change in one go.
