Morocco arrests 11 Methodists for planned terror attacks -- no, wait...

Once again, initial assumptions that Christianists were behind this have proved to be incorrect. "Morocco 'holds 11 over planned attacks,'" from AFP, May 19 (thanks to Louis):

RABAT (AFP) - Moroccan police have broken up a "terrorist network" of 11 people with links to Al-Qaeda that was planning attacks in Morocco and Belgium, the MAP national news agency said Monday.

The 11, who include a Moroccan resident in Belgium, were picked up in the central city of Fes and in Nador, in the north of the country, MAP said.

They had links with "groups sending volunteers to Iraq and camps of Al-Qaeda's branch in North Africa," the agency added, giving no names....

That group faces charges including murder and attempted murder with firearms, robbery, money laundering, criminal association with terrorist intent and forging official and identity documents....

Everyone hold out their wrist.
Slap, slap, slap...
Okay, you're free to go. Next time, please remember not to let us catch you! That's when things get ugly. We might have to make an example of someone. We're forced to put on a good show for the Americans, so please make things easier for all of us and do a better job of concealing your activities. As long as we are allowed to retain plausible deniability then everything will be fine. Now get out of here and peace be upon you!

Did I ever tell you the joke about the Methodist Minister and his bicycle?

I wonder if these guys will have a tough time "breaking" out of those Morocco prisons you hear so much about.........
