Allah on the Terror Plot
When stories are breaking fast, the guy you want to go to is Allah. I learned that during Rathergate. He takes a huge mass of information and brings together the important stuff in readable chunks, with links and smart commentary. The guy is absolutely indispensable, and it’s days like this that demonstrate why.
Here is his latest on the terror plot.
UPDATE: Here is even more.
UPDATE x2: The names of three of the ringleaders: Rashid Rauf, Mohammed al-Ghandra, and Ahmed al Khan. (And here I figured it would be Joe, Bob, and Ted.) They are all of Pakistani descent. There are five still at large.
UPDATE x3: Good thing the New York Times didn’t find out about the plot before the arrests were made. They might have called the terrorists for their comments.
UPDATE x4: More names:
Umir Hussain, 24, London E14
Muhammed Usman Saddique, 24, London E17
Waheed Zaman, 22, London E17
Assan Abdullah Khan, 22, London E17
Waseem Kayani, 28, High Wycombe
Waheed Arafat Khan, 24, London E17
Cossor Ali, 24, London E17
Tayib Rauf, 21, Birmingham
Ibrahim Savant, 26, London E17
Osman Adam Khatib, 20, London E17

(Via Allah.)
“Sources say that investigators are still trying to determine what connection, if any, there is between the three suspects. You know, some sort of common thread, something which might, you know, link them all together somehow.”
