Another Broad Strata Gang Apprehended

Drudge headlines this morning say it all;

Plan to blow up planes in mid-flight…
‘Mass murder’ bomb plot…
‘Suggestive’ of al-Qaida…
UK police hold 21…
REPORT: Citizens of Pakistani Dissent…
Britain on highest alert…
USA raises air security alert to red for first time…
Statement by Homeland Security…
Airlines ban hand luggage from UK…
Britain facing ‘most sustained threat since WWII’…
2 held on terror charges in Ohio…

Stephen Taylor was up late and live blogged the reports as they came in.
Pajamas Media is also following emerging reports – and good ol’ al-Reuters is at it again;

REUTERS (REMEMBER THEM?) LINKS PLOT TO BLAIR COOPERATING WITH US ON HEZBOLLAH-ISRAEL WAR ALTHOUGH BRITISH INTELLIGENCE INDICATES PLOT IN MAKING FOR MONTHS – LONG BEFORE WAR. 21:35 PDT

And predictably, a member of the Canadian left reacts with all the seriousness we’ve come to expect of them. It’s a plot to improve George Bush’s “(and, in this case, the UK and Israeli governments)” polling numbers, of course. Allow me to ask this directly of “Liberal Catnip” – What’s wrong with you people?
Update – My question has received both a response and an explanation that makes some sense. According to Liberal Catnip, she has the IQ of a shetland sheepdog.

  1. First off, despite the name I am not Jewish. Just a lapsed Christian that is fed up. I think this situation speaks to certain problems endemic to a free society like ours. All it takes is someone, anyone to show marginalized people some attention and then all of a sudden blowing things up and killing people becomes acceptable to these inept people. It matters little where the person was born, when violence is advocated by the people who build up these sociapaths, into the murderers they don’t have the balls to be themselves, we all lose. My solution is simple enough. We need to send moles from all racial backgrounds in to join the jihad and dismantle it internally. With a decent enough penetration into many of these organizations wherever they spring up, we can shut them down.

  2. On the news today we’re hearing a lot about how people are reacting to the latest bomb plot and its effect on air travel. Well, let me tell you how I am reacting.
    I’m not scared. I’m not frightened. But I am angry.
    I am angry that there are people in this world that have so little regard for innocent life they would plot to blow up commercial airplanes all in the name of religion. I am angry that these people have subscribed to such a twisted ideology of hate cloaked in religion, and that their belief in this ideology so infringes on the freedom and safety of the rest of us. I am also angry that these people seem to willingly partake of our freedoms and liberties (living comfortably in middle-class British, Canadian and American neighborhoods) all the while hating us and plotting to destroy us. I am also angry that more of their co-religionists don’t condemn them, cooperate with law enforcement and try to excise the cancer that is in their midst.
    So if the purpose of terrorist action is to terrorize and frighten people, they failed in their endeavor. They succeeded only in p***ing me off.

  3. Let me say it again…………
    there is no such thing as a moderate muslim!
    They are muslim missionaries!
    When our society is defeated they fall right back into line and hope they aren’t singled out for being too friendly with the INFIDELS.
    Please read “Sword of the Prophet” by Serge Trefkovic and then get back to me with your comments.

  4. Bob, please give me a link to the poll – or is it a phone-in? Somehow they missed me. Glad to see you’re a member of the Party, Boob – sorry, Bob. A CPC in good standing, with a current membership?
    “About half of Canadian Conservatives do not support Harper’s unqualifed support of Israel. I am one of them, so I’ll field this one.”

  5. Sadly, I think Fred is correct: it may take a nuclear incident set off by terrorists, to wake up the sleeping masses in Western countries. Even then, many of the snoozing lefties will probably blame our side for the destruction.
    When will the majority of our citizens finally wake up and realize that fundamentalist/extremist Islam is the worst threat this planet faces at this time?
    Islam can no longer be seen as just another religion – it is a pathetic rot which must be dealt with.

  6. Liberals please pick one:
    a) todays aborted terrorist threat was the result of GWB’s and Blair’s harassing of Islam
    b) todays aborted terrorist attack was the creation of the Bush administration in order to justify his and Blair’s harassment of Islam
    Remember, you can only pick one.

  7. Kate asks a valid question; What’s wrong with the Liberals (and by extension, I should think, the N.D.P.).
    Answer; most of them are stupid bastards.
    I have a question of my own, to wit, what is wrong with the people who vote for them?

  8. Good question Joe , and after reading it the first thing that came to mind was the TeleTubbies…….go figure?

  9. I’m concerned about the lack of nuance, the lack of proportionality exhibited by the aviation authorities.
    They should have followed the Hizb’Allah-Israel example by:
    1) blaming the passengers.
    2) allowing the Jihadis on the plane with their sports drinks and MP3 players.

  10. I have a question of my own, to wit, what is wrong with the people who vote for them?
    I’ve been trying to answer that question south of the border myself, why would any informed rational human being since 9/11 vote for the rot that is the Democrats? Here are some of my random thoughts:
    a) braindeadedness – you haven’t read anything but the MSM tripe for decades. it comes into your living room or on your sidewalk on a daily schedule. no effort needed past that.
    b) malignant narcissism prevents you from thinking or feeling about anything but yourself with clarity, empathy or reason. virtucrats also need a morally superior position to instruct from. pc and multi-culti dogma good for that.
    c)you feed off of the public trough and need the Dem/Lib bozos for your lifelong paycheck.
    d) victim politics is your meal ticket. it is the only talent you’ve got. whining is lucrative.
    e)lefty college professors made you feel liberated and alive – they eat pate, mom does meatloaf.
    f)herd mentality – challenging pc and multi-culti dogma is punishable. social exile is too painful.
    g)clinical paranoia – rove/bush have implanted nanotechnology into your brain via the ends of your hair fibers and you must take defensive action.
    I wish I had a real answer.

  11. Sumbuddy: “Please read “Sword of the Prophet” by Serge Trefkovic”
    I’m sure it’s just as historically accurate as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion or The Da Vinci Code. I wonder what Sumbuddy like you thinks is a solution to all this – genocide?

  12. In refering to the UK terrorist plot to commit mass murder by blowing up multiple airliners, your correspondent “Liberal Catnip” actually uses the word “alleged”.
    Thus I must demand an apology on behalf of my little friend Jodie, and other Shetland Sheepdogs everywhere.

  13. I have a question, and I will probably get flamed for it and called a conspiracy theorist, but I think it’s legitimate and I’m hoping for a sensible answer:
    Authorities in Britain and the U.S. say that the terrorists might have been days away from implementing the plan. The plot to nail these terrorists in England must have taken a fair bit of time to piece together. So my question is, why is the high terror alert on air travel only coming AFTER the arrests? Presumably, planes could have been blown up at any time in recent weeks. Shouldn’t an advisory have gone out earlier?

  14. Jaymeister: The police obviously walk a fine line. If they jump too soon, (or issue an advisory that tips off the terrorists), they risk missing the ‘big fish’ and just hauling in minnows; but at the same time there quite possibly could have been attacks……it’s a chance they HAVE to take, and there was probably a LOT of behind the scenes tension worrying about what might have happened.

  15. Theory on the question Kate posed, “What’s wrong with you people?”. Westerners who are still in denial (a staggering number) have become so deeply indoctrinated in the historical narrative of Socialism that every event is seen through this prism. Amidst the fog of revisionist history, western guilt and moral relativity “it’s our fault” has become the only palatable explanation for any grievance.
    All events and evidence that contradicts this reality simply “does not compute” and is summarily dismissed as one-off anomalies, or additional revisionist historical perspective is concocted. For example, the violence which accompanies each expansion of the “Muslim world”, is either the result of “western interference”, or blind acceptance of each localized Islamic narrative of “homeland”.
    All thinking people understand that approx 1300 years ago there was NO Muslim homeland and that all of the ME, North Africa, Asia, and Europe was populated by Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, pagans, atheists, and others. Yet the Muslim violence to establish an Islamic state in Chechnya, for example, is predicated on the existence of Muslims in that region “for 300 years”. So, whenever the first Muslim is known to have colonized any particular reason becomes the accepted rationalization of violence against people who have been there for 400 years. The patterns of Islamic colonization by violence throughout the world are similiarly rationalized, and either ignored or championed by the Left.
    The intolerance of Islam for women, gays, and all other religious philosophies is ignored because the historical relativist demonization of western culture requires the romanticization of all non-western culture. This philosophy of moral relativism allows the Left to selectively reject all liberal principles, values, and human rights when applied to any culture perceived as “non-western”, while religiously requiring all western cultures to abide by western principles to the point of self-annihilation. Of course, this “moral relativist” use of different yardsticks for different cultures really requires that one abandon one’s morals and essentially reject “Liberalism” altogether.
    “What’s wrong with you people?” The short answer is they are PHUCKED UP.

  16. Some mistakes: So, whenever the first Muslim is known to have colonized any particular reason (should read “region” becomes the accepted rationalization of violence against people who have been there for 400 years (in the Chechen example).

  17. I visited the catnip blog. Interesting to note that these calm progressive types refer to Kate as the “Wicked Witch”, “KKKate”, “harridan”, and “bitch”, and to us regulars here as “flying monkeys”. Then, in their next breath, they take us to task for calling them names.
    But I guess asking for logical consistency from Liberals is like trying to get milk from a bull.

  18. Hypocricy indeed, Kevin. The hallmark of the left.
    I visit there occasionally, if only for the low impact entertainment value of smashing their weak volleys down centre court.
