Are we Next?

"The Base" and their sister cells have now struck everywhere but Canada: I guess it was a group of six nations who are unjustly keeping radical Islamists from setting up a theocracy that would make Iran or George W Bush cringe.

There is no reason to expect we will be spared. Tranist seems to be their favourite choice as it is a public place and you cannot screen millions of riders as you can an aircraft boarding gate. Vancouver and Toronto, maybe Ottawa and Montreal seem the likely targets.

I have no idea how to defend against this, short of turning towards a police state as The Americans have (who are always it seems 5 minutes away from doing that anyway).

What Dubya Tony and thier allies (including us) need to do now is to fight the war on terror by fighting the war on terror. Afghanistan made sense. For Iraq, Dubya used 9/11 as excuse to level Iraq which is what he wished his father had done in 1991. (Silly Bush Sr - listened to those UN people...).

I am sickened when, usually by accident, I see local American News and the lament for the soldiers killed in Iraq: They should ALL still be alive. Iraquis killed them BUT YOU A*&H*LES STARTED IT.

If "last throes" of an insurgency is this bloody I am not looking foward to "over": In Cheney double-speak, who knows what that will mean.
