By shooting down his helicopter. No one, however, had the bright idea to try to shoot down his appeasement-minded "peace-processing." "Israel makes arrests in alleged plot against Bush," from Reuters, July 18:
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel accused six Arabs on Friday of trying to set up an al Qaeda cell in Israel and said one of them had proposed attacking helicopters used during a visit by President George W. Bush.Israel's Shin Bet counter-intelligence agency said one of the suspects had used his mobile phone to film helicopters at a sports stadium in Jerusalem that was used as a landing site for Bush's delegation.
The suspect then posted queries on Web sites frequented by al Qaeda operatives, asking for guidance on how to shoot down the helicopters, the agency said in a statement....
The Shin Bet identified four of the suspects as Palestinian residents of Arab East Jerusalem and two as Israeli Arabs.
Well he will say it is the religion of peace. Some one hijacked the religion of peace. Why is that only Muslims hijack the religion of peace?
For "The Shin Bet identified four of the suspects as Palestinian residents of Arab East Jerusalem and two as Israeli Arabs."
Read "The Shin Bet identified four of the suspects as non-Israeli Arab residents of Jerusalem and two as Israeli Arabs."
Should anyone be surprised? They tried to kill Bush's father after he was out of office.
I would have been more surprised if they did NOT try to kill him
I agree with Spot On - the shock would be if they hadn't had killing him in mind.
The sick part is that many people here in the U.s. would have been happy if such a thing has happened.
Yup... sick.
Great Work by Israel in STOPPING the Attempt on OUR PRESIDENT!
This is yet ONE MORE illustration of how VALUABLE an Ally Israel is to us.
Israel may not exist as an ally for much longer...Olmert is building a new Arab City in Israel to provide a safe haven for jihadis inside the Green Line:
Olmert Financing Construction of Arab City
Upon reading the full Reuters article, it is clear that GWB was not the target. The alleged cell only came up with the idea when GWB visited Jerusalem. They were waiting for another high value target. The Israelis arrested the group now, just before Obama's visit. Hence, it is not unreasonable to say that the plotters may have killed Obama and the Israelis have saved him from their design.
