Ha! Keller Missed One!
This would have been a real catastrophe, one that relegated even the descent on the Gulf Coast by Katrina the Bitch, the aftermath of that terrible visit and probably even 9/11 to Page 41.
The FBI has uncovered what officials consider a serious plot by jihadists to bomb the Holland Tunnel in hopes of causing a torrent of water to deluge lower Manhattan, the Daily News has learned. The terrorists sought to drown the Financial District as New Orleans was by Hurricane Katrina, sources said. They also wanted to attack subways and other tunnels.
Imagine something like this happening at, say, late afternoon rush hour, when New Yorkers, plus commuters from the liberal wasteland of New Jersey and more dignified Connecticut packed the streets and subways of Manhattan by the millions. Unlike during the Katrina disaster, these people would have absolutely no notice that anything out of the ordinary was afoot, they would simply be going about their respective business when massive tonnages of water bore down on them.
Experts also said that even if the tunnel cracked, the Financial District would not be flooded because it is above the level of the river.
As the venerable James Taranto would say, "What would we do without experts?"
I know, you're reading this post and wondering, "Seth, WTF's yer point?"
Well, how about this? Sorry, but it means repetition.
The FBI has uncovered what officials consider a serious plot by jihadists to bomb the Holland Tunnel in hopes of causing a torrent of water to deluge lower Manhattan, the Daily News has learned.
The Bureau unearthed a terrorist plot that would, on achieving fruition, have more than qualified for the term "holocaust"., only this time it wouldn't have victimized only my fellow Jews, it would have victimized seven digits' worth of every kind of human being, from religion to economic level (or lack thereof), every ethnicity to political belief.
This kind of discovery does not originate among the trappings of liberal dogma, it is the product of complex investigative strategies and pure investigative excellence and related technologies, our Homeland Security venue and all its related agencies hard at work in conjunction with the security services of other countries.
Thank G-d these pros discovered the planned Op when they did.
Also, thank G-d the New York Times didn't get wind of the Bureau's investigation in its early stages. If they had, they would have trumpeted every detail they could lay hands on, amid an orgasm by Bill Keller, on their front page, thereby providing the terrorists the opportunity to cover their tracks and get away with whatever they had done or intended to do.
Okay, y'all, here's my point: When the FBI is permitted to do what they're good at without attracting the dubious and treasonous attention of The NYT, they can protect us "hands down".
The NYT, on the other hand, has done and will do anything they can to sabotage anything the Bush Administration does to defend our country and its security for the simple reason that they can afterwards "blame Bush". It doesn't matter to liberals whether or not Islamofascists smash our country in to little bits, all they give a damn about is exposing or otherwise sabotaging our current administration's efforts to protect our country and we, the people, in order to replace the President with a Democrat in 2008.
As is the case where the bulk of their illogical Utopian ambitions for our government and we, the people are concerned, any considerations of our wellbeing play second fiddle to liberals' political agendas -- as with the rest of their fantasies, liberals think they can always repair the damage they do to our country via "reasoned" approaches to the problems they create.
Right-O, let's vote the likes of John Kerry, Howard Dean, Hillary Clinton or Jack Murtha into the Oval Office in 2008 and allow them to "negotiate with terrorists" on our behalf. Let's let them pull all our troops out of everyplace else and "redeploy" them to less hostile climes, release all the terrorists we have in custody at GITMO and organize a Maypole dance to celebrate the end of everything non-Muslim. While Keller, the ACLU, the entire populations of Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, neighboring Hollywood, New York, Chicago and other liberal enclaves line up for either decapitation or conversion to subjection to Islamism, the folks responsible for America's demise can make their explanations, but, alas and alack, there will be no turning back, no reprieve, only the choice between Caliphate and death.
As long as we even allow liberalism in this country, we are assuming the same level of existence as your common, everyday lemming.
It's great to know that our government is protecting us from terrorists as they are. As far as I'm concerned, my idol in the homeland security millieu is Jack Bauer. Too bad he doesn't really exist. :-(
If he did, I'd be his greatest fan....

Those bastards.
How DARE they "uncover" plots. Those poor "freedom fighters" didn't break any laws, did they? Therefore they should be left alone to do what they want to. After all, the Holland Tunnel started it. That's where the Moohamid cartoons were written, right?

ROTFLMAO!
Must've been in the Holland Tunnel, Ogre, heh, heh, they certainly couldn't have plotted anything "untoward" in one of those "peaceful" mosques, right?

According to the movie I saw yesterday (Review here), jihadi cells have been present here since the 1980's. This according to Walid Shoebat, and he should know!

Great review, AOW --
As I commented at your site, living in Charlotte will probably mean waiting for the DVD to come out, and I will buy it when it does.
The second link introduced me to someone I'm glad it did, I need to follow up on him.
It really is necessary to do all we can to convince fellow Americans -- and other westerners for that matter, of just how dangerous the very serious threat posed by Islamofascism is. Liberals seem to think it's all part of some fun game in which the bad guys don't really want to hurt anyone, while a large number entertain the theory that 9/11 was a plot by Bush and Rove, and most of our politicians on both sides of the aisle are apparently unable to grasp the fact that these jihadis do not reason in the same dimension that we do. They continue to play at diplomacy and policy making whose premises apply to neither the mentality nor the morality of the enemy.

It's the only possible reason I can think of why they're so cavalier about playing politics with the War On Terror. They must honestly believe that they would be immune to bombs, beheading and general purpose butchery if they help punch holes in our defenses.
"Idiots" is almost a compliment in most liberals' case, as it makes them sound smarter than they really are.
