A related development -
A newly released inspector general report backs eyewitness accounts of suspicious behavior by 13 Middle Eastern men on a Northwest Airlines flight in 2004 [...] a background check in the FBI's National Crime Information Center database, which was performed June 18 as part of a visa-extension application, produced "positive hits" for past criminal records or suspicious behavior for eight of the 12 Syrians, who were traveling in the U.S. as a musical group.In addition, the band's promoter was listed in a separate FBI database on case investigations for acting suspiciously aboard a flight months earlier.

We need to get down to the bottom of the root causes! /sarc off
According to LGF,
"One of the alleged plotters, Abdul Kabir, is a member of the parliament of Guyana, and was arrested in Trinidad."
There's no Liberal Party of Trinidad, is there?
Make that Guyana.
Racists..there...it was said before the lefatards got in...Gitmo bound,I hope. But in real life,without the PC'ness, it would be earth bound, as in 6 feet under.
A clear case of basketball court deficiency...
I'm sure the plotters came from a "broad cross-section" of society....
What ever can be done to rid our world of these wretched beings?
It appears it can only be done by racial/religious profiling and we know where to look, it's a no-brainer. It means going through them with fine tooth combs and trust none of them in our civil Democracies. All trust has been lost among those of us with a modicum of sanity.
Radical Islam, moderate Islam, what constitutes normal Islam is the puzzler.
The political correctoids of the left will scream but we have to do it to keep our world safe.
Compliments of Islam. Beware. More on the way from the religion of peace, a gift to us all, the most tolerent from the most intolerent.
Oh hum, back to sleep, it's only a "tiny minority of extremists".
According to CBC...."apparently, they are muslim"
I like the use of the word apparently.
I'd be interested to find out if they got into the country through Bush's leaky Mex border...secondly...if the did, will we see Canadians put on an accelerated schedule for biometric travel docs?
I remain jaded in watching any security agency theatrics and media grandstanding that has allowed 20 million illegals into the country.
"where he planned to pick up a travel visa to attend an Islamic religious conference in Iran."
The Mahdi's Flee Circus has its HQ in Iran. Takkiya, aka lying doubletalk, is a Muslim practice.

JFK Airport Terror Suspect's Family Reacts ["He'd never hurt a flea."]
NEW YORK — One of the daughters of a man among four accused in a terror plot to destroy John F. Kennedy International Airport and surrounding areas told FOX News Saturday that her father was "falsely arrested."
Abdul Kadir, a Muslim and former member of Parliament in Guyana, was arrested in Trinidad for attempting to secure money for "terrorist operations," according to a Guyanese police commander who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Kadir's wife, Isha, said that her husband was nabbed while boarding a flight to Venezuela, where he planned to pick up a travel visa to attend an Islamic religious conference in Iran. He had flown from Guyana to Trinidad on Thursday.
But Kadir's daughter said that her father had no knowledge or association to the plot that aimed to kill thousands of people and trigger an economic catastrophe by blowing up a jet fuel artery that runs through populous residential neighborhoods.
Kadir has no problems with America, would never do anything wrong and would never associate with a group like Al Qaeda, his daughter said.
"This is a total surprise," she said.
"We have no interest in blowing up anything in the U.S.," Isha said Saturday from the couple's home in Guyana. "We have relatives in the U.S." ...-

It that the same JFK Airport that Maher Arar was so hell bend on getting to from Tunisia just after he sold his home and fled canada with his family?
No wonder Arar wants canada to help him clear his Passport restrictions for Saudi Arabia and a few other Terrorist producing Nations , the USA stopped him cold before he could flee the Airport with his buddies from the Mosque he attended while living in the USA near the Boston Airport.
It's all very clear now on why Arar refused to take the Stand at the Inquiry where he'd be forced to tell the truth about those Hard Drives and Data CD's hidden in the Attic and walls of his Ottawa house that the RCMP searched.
Justice O'Connor only said that there was NO valid evidence of a link by Arar to Terror groups in Canada and that he and his wife had never broken any Laws while in Canada.
Wake up people we were screwed by the Syrian refugee that sued us and now wants to flee Canada with the money , except he can't get to his Mosque in Boston and he can't get a Visa to Nations he would feel safe in once we discover his scam to take OUR money and run .
I urge everyone to read America Alone by Mark Steyn. If you can't afford to buy it, get it from your local library.
I have already read it, tranio.

Moderate Muslims are merely those content to sit on the fence and keep their mouths shut. They don't really care who wins or loses, they'll survive just fine either way. Until the so-called moderates rise up against the radicals, they're all tarred with the same brush. It's their choice.
This has nothing to do with the so-called war on terror, because it doesn't exist. Nor does it have anything to do with Islam.
Meanwhile, the CBC is already working on a light-hearted LMotP episode where this all turns out to be one big misunderstanding.
Boy, are we gonna have egg on our faces!
the irony here is that all these idiot leftoid moonbats who cheer on the islamo thugs and criminals are going to find themselves in a tough spot if bin laden's dream comes true....it will not matter how small their idiot carbon footprint is, it will not matter how many plastic bottles the moron's recycled, it will not matter how many pairs of birkenstock's are in the s#$%4brains closets.....they will be even more affected by anarchy than me and my kin....at least we here in knuckledraggerville can take care of our needs without it being delivered in a reefer truck....good luck to those Toronto dipsticks if al qaida ever cripples our transport system(a prime target, I may add)
roger,
not doubting you just unaware of that evidence....any links?

Go terrorists go!
...and claims of torture are expected to be presented by the lawyers for the men arrested in 5,4,3,2...
There is still a lot of mystery surrounding the Arar affair. Many of us are skeptical, we don't have clear answers. The US will not be fooled so in effect they are protecting us from our own stupidity.
The classic claim of torture should soon lose it's it's clout if we are ever going to defeat this monster called Terrorism.
Liz, we're not in a "War on Terror". That'd be like calling WW2 the "War on Blitzkrieg". Terrorism is merely the enemy's principle tactic. We're in a War on Global Islamofascism.

You are so right Liz. Is Arar missing his teeth?Is his body deformed from the torture? Is he missing his testicles? We were sucked in,big time,and to the tune of 10 million. But thats okay,according to Taliban Jack and his fluncky followers. Mind you,PMSH is just at fault,for not telling to courts to go screw themselves!
Ahhh...but we can all recline back and enjoy the Utopia that the new gods have foisted upon us.
there was never much said about Arar in terms of his torture.
Refused a phone call? had his game boy confiscated?
I remember something about being tied with wires but I think there are places in Amsterdam that people pay to have that done to them.
meanwhile back at CBCpravda , I heard the back end of a program yesterday flipping channels on the road , the guy on there said Omar Khadr was innocent , after all he was just a 15 year old kid protecting his homeland from an American invasion, isnt one allowed to fight back? no mention of Papa Khadr and Osama , no mention that he was an import to Afganistan, no mention that he was with a Taliban force,
