Terror Plot to Bomb Sears Tower Busted
As always, Allah has the details.
I question the timing. Why would this happen now, just when: evidence is coming to light that WMD (or perhaps former WMD) have been found in Iraq; Karl Rove is not being indicted; a report has found no evidence of a deliberate cover-up at Haditha; and Zarqawi has been killed?
A Kos commenter puts it all in perspective:
The sad thing . . .
Is I’m sure some poor kid with brown skin, who maybe once mouthed off at his local falafel stand will end up stuck in a brig in guantanamo for the rest of his youth in order to prop this up.

I still remember the day when the Soviets shot down Korean Air flight 007 over Sakharin Island. It took one of my co-workers, a young leftie, only a few minutes to suggest that it was probably the CIA’s fault.
It’s a mindset, impervious to facts or reason, set permanantly to “spin.”
