Lorenzo Vidino mentioned "Mother of Satan" - is that PETN?

Ah, yes, 'Mother of Satan', the stuff with which the kid blew himself up with outside the OU football game last fall.

Ah - its TATP. I have too many things loose in my brain. I hope the American people remember this when time comes for hearings on Bush's "nefarious Zionist anti-civil rights plots" /half mocking DNC...

"What? and wake the sleeping Mexicans?"
A sonicator of proper size and power would be loud enough to drive everyone within couple hundred yards crazy. One would need to construct a soundproof, blast proof chamber with spring-loaded ceiling and sonicate the luggage there. All the technologies already exist.

Good roundup. What is the Democratic reaction to all this? The last I heard, there hasn't been much. There was minor DNC functionary who said that Democrats are opposed to the war in Iraq, but tough in the war on terror (This isn't going to fly with ANSWER and their ilk). Democratic mayors have confined themselves to talking about their specific responsibilities.

The RAT reaction is it's just a Karl Rove ploy to take Ned Lamont's victory out of the news. Some of them think it is a Bush/Blair ploy to help their poll numbers. Still others deny that there is even a terrorist threat ...

Abu Hamza fanatics are urging fresh suicide attacks on passenger jets, using mini-bombs in pens and disposable cameras. The call is aired on an website run by supporters of the jailed hook-handed cleric.

Er, isn't that how Abu "Cap'n Hook" Hamza got that way?

Misery loves company.

There you go...it was someone who was rolled up.

"(A)n Islamic militant arrested near the Afghan-Pakistan border several weeks ago provided a lead that played a role in "unearthing the plot,"

"What is the Democratic reaction to all this?"

Well, that Dem kneepadder Norah O'Donnell was wringing her hands this morning on MSNBC, wondering if all this was perhaps caused by the fact that the Muslim unemployment rate in Britain is 14%!!!

I kid you not. This is what the lamebrain said.

My wife had Fox News on this morning for a few minutes. We have several friends who had planned to fly to London this week and into September.

Fox news this morning said the intel had come from Pakistan which enabled the Brits to prevent these massive mass murders.

Fleshing this out even further ...found this in an AP article.

But a senior government official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to comment on the matter, said "two or three local people" suspected in the plot were arrested a few days ago in Lahore and Karachi.
