London was bombed by "British" Muslims. NYC and DC were attacked by imports.

To think that our intel agencies are all over the terrorist cells in the US is naive at best.

If I was in London, I think I'd be going around with a ham sandwich necklace and wear a fedora with a bacon hatband.

CJ seems to have..evaporated.

[sarasota]

That's why they're called "sleeper" cells.

"Wear bulky coats and chant real loud, sweat profusely and fiddle with strange electrical devices beneath their clothes. Then when they are harrassed or killed by the police, the Islamakazis can cry foul, and complain for a month of Sundays about how they are being discriminated against unfairly."

So what? Anyone stupid enough to do that deserves to be shot. It won't make anyone back off. It just makes the terrorists easier to kill.

But then wouldnt they freeze to death?

Oh...

Nevermind...;-) ;-)...

This will go on and on till Briton wakes up and begins mass deportations.

Weren't the original four bombers all natural Britons?

"but when are they going to strike in the US. And can the American public as a whole handle things like the British and not go all wobbly? We seemed to come together after 9/11,"

Amazing to me is how you and the like contradict and answer your own question in the same paragraph. Why do you ask, "when are they going to strike America?" when in fact they already did strike America on 9/11!

9/11 should never be minimalized or viewed as a threat like so many seem to do. It was a huge hit, an act of war on unarmed civilians without warning.

And now we know why... LOL

"Well done, Grampa Dave. Imagine your walks are far more enjoyable."

I just grin at him now if he is out when I walk by.

[SFC Chromey]

Outstanding job, but *ceasefire*. Jeez.

---

Come on now, every police officer I know is taught to shoot until the threat is eliminated.

My guess is he kept twitching, and they kept shooting.

Just the way it should be done!
HOOOOOAH!

[Grampa Dave]

I'm sure that a lot of attacks are missing. I know the one you are referring to.

Hopefully one of our great researchers/indexers on Free Republic will adopt this list, update and keep it available for us.

[gridlock]

Call me a cynic, but I think a lot of people, particularly in the press, are not altogether comfortable with this "rah-rah, Rule Brittania, We Are Not Afraid" stuff. They are going to be looking for a reason to swing back the other way, roll over on their backs and ask the Islamakazis to scratch their bellies. That is just their default position, and they are looking for a way to get back to it.

The summary execution of an unarmed man in the tube is just the ticket.

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks.

I borrowed it from Chad Gore and have made some corrections and additions to it.

[duffthor]

I (and the like) was referring to whatever is coming next. 9/11 was one quick incident (or a series in quick succession if you like)...this stuff in London appears to be an ongoing thing. I would think it would make sense that they would attempt, and hopefully fail, to do something similar here eventually. What I'm wondering is if the people as a whole will freak out and panic or will the people as a whole stiffen up and kick some serious a$$.

By the way....what is this "and the like" you seem to lump me in to?

[SunnySide]

"As far as I know there has been little or no cooperation with anti terror coming from the Muslim communities in either country."


Their silence is deafening = extremely questionable thus creates expected distrust and doubt from Western civilization.
