TERRORIST CAPTURED!

“Authorities today captured a terrorist who fit the U.S. government's 'terrorist profile'. He was captured while trying to illegally cross into the U.S. The suspect reportedly has a long beard, wears a strange hat and lived in isolation. Some pictures....
”

“No wonder they can't find OBL, his name is really Osama bin Laalaa!

”

“He's yella' alright!”

“for the Godless bastard!”

“I heard that Osama Bin LaaLaa killed Twinky Winky for being gay.”

“OTTAWA, Canada (Reuters) -- Canadian police, taking advantage of sweeping new anti-terrorism legislation, arrested Santa Claus on Monday on the grounds that he had a beard, was behaving suspiciously and, in all likelihood, belonged to a underground cell. Or so demonstrators would have you believe.

The "arrest" was stage-managed by local pro-democracy activists who say that the legislation -- which the Senate, or upper house of Parliament, was due to start debating later on Monday -- will destroy many civil liberties.

The law, the brainchild of Justice Minister Anne McLellan, and passed already by the House of Commons, will ban fund-raising by terrorist groups, widen wiretapping authority and allow police to make preventive arrests of people they think would engage in terrorism.

As thick snow fell across Parliament Hill in Ottawa, a small crowd of demonstrators watched an actor dressed as a policeman handcuff a protesting Santa and take him away.

"We're sorry to say that Santa has been put on the list of terrorists and he is being arrested today because of concerns by Anne McLellan that he might be up to no good," said local activist Betty-Anne Daviss.

As Santa was hauled off to meet his fate, fellow demonstrator Ken Johnson said it was clear the suspect was part of a larger organization.

"They're clearly in cahoots across the country, all these people doing very similar and weird things, spending time in shopping malls and waving in parades. I'm sure those hand signals are indicating something to other members of the cell," he said.

McLellan rushed out the legislation to meet the needs of various government departments in the wake of the September 11 strikes on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

“BLAME CANADA!”

“It all makes perfect sense now. Satan is the evildoer, and many people equate Santa with Satan...the head honcho of evildoers. This seems like another opportunity for Dubya to put out another bogus terrorist alert for the Christmas holiday. No doubt that fat terrorist will have to get into the USA via the Canadian border as he flies down from the North Pole...and without a visa no doubt. His elves will detained indefinitely for their roles in the conspiracy.”

“Like I said before TT'ing is great!!!!LOL.......:)”

“It's true! I really am Santa!”

“Aha! I have him admitting his guilt! This proves I am justified in killing elves!”

“Santa is a white trash commie...just look at his clothes...red and white. Plus most of his toys are from China.”

“Two Kansas brothers who dodged authorities for 15 years were arrested in southwestern New Mexico atop stockpiles of drugs, weapons and about 200 pounds of explosives, authorities said.

Officials described Geoffrey Rose, 62, and Gregory Rose, 50, as potential domestic terrorists aligned with white supremacist and anti-government groups.

They were arrested Friday at a rental home in Catron County about 80 miles east of the Arizona border, where authorities said they found military-style helmets and bullet-resistant vests.

Officials had received reports that the two men frequently voiced anti-government threats to federal employees in the area.

"We believe they were at risk of committing an act against the federal government," U.S. Marshal Gorden Eden said at a news conference Friday.

Wanted by the federal government since 1991, the brothers have eluded a string of felony drug and weapons charges.

The local Marshals Service learned Tuesday that the Rose brothers might be living in New Mexico. Eden did not know how long the two had been in the state but said its rural outlines are attractive to felons.

"People believe they can flee to the Wild West and not get caught," he said, noting New Mexico's large land mass.

Arresting officers discovered the home had motion detectors and dogs on the property. Eden said the two also might have tried to domesticate mountain lions.

When last arrested in Merriam, Kan., officers found the brothers' home booby-trapped and rigged with electronic surveillance.

"These people have been known in the past to shoot at police officers," Eden said.

“If these terrorists could elude capture by the U.S. government that included being fugitives in the U.S. for the 8 years President Clinton was in office, then why are the Democrats so critical that George Bush has ONLY killed or captured 3/4 of al Qaeda in less time?”

“I hate that this might sound like I am defending Clinton, but I doubt that anyone was actively seeking these guys. All they had to do was not get there names into a database, such as speeding tickets, arrests, etc, and they wouldn't trigger any searches that would bring them to the attention of law enforcement officers.”

“Hyway, you might be on to something. President Clinton refused to order bin Laden killed when his administration had him literally in the sights of a Predator Drone. So Clinton did not go after a lot of terrorists.

But Clinton did go after terrorist Eric Rudolph with over 300 agents, but could not find him in the United States either. It took the bush administration to bring Eric Rudolph to justice.”

“I don't think the Bush admin had anything to do with a local cop catching a guy rummaging through a garbage can who happened to wind up being Rudolph.”

“And I don't think the Clinton administration had anything to do with a Predator Drone catching a 6' 4" Arab in white robes commanding an al Qaeda terrorists camp who happened to wind up being bin Laden either. The difference is that Clinton couldn't act, and Bush could.”

“I won't disagree with that, just pointing out Bush had little to do with Rudolph. Oh what a different world if the trigger had been pulled on Laden.”

“THE ONE PERCENT DOCTRINE

Deep Inside America's Pursuit of Its Enemies Since 9/11

By Ron Suskind


From Barton Gellman review ( http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/19/AR2006061901211_pf.html ):


This is an important book, filled with the surest sign of great reporting: the unexpected. It enriches our understanding of even familiar episodes from the Bush administration's war on terror and tells some jaw-dropping stories we haven't heard before.

One example out of many comes in Ron Suskind's gripping narrative of what the White House has celebrated as one of the war's major victories: the capture of Abu Zubaydah in Pakistan in March 2002. Described as al-Qaeda's chief of operations even after U.S. and Pakistani forces kicked down his door in Faisalabad, the Saudi-born jihadist was the first al-Qaeda detainee to be shipped to a secret prison abroad. Suskind shatters the official story line here.

Abu Zubaydah, his captors discovered, turned out to be mentally ill and nothing like the pivotal figure they supposed him to be. CIA and FBI analysts, poring over a diary he kept for more than a decade, found entries "in the voice of three people: Hani 1, Hani 2, and Hani 3" -- a boy, a young man and a middle-aged alter ego. All three recorded in numbing detail "what people ate, or wore, or trifling things they said." Dan Coleman, then the FBI's top al-Qaeda analyst, told a senior bureau official, "This guy is insane, certifiable, split personality."

Abu Zubaydah also appeared to know nothing about terrorist operations; rather, he was al-Qaeda's go-to guy for minor logistics -- travel for wives and children and the like. That judgment was "echoed at the top of CIA and was, of course, briefed to the President and Vice President," Suskind writes. And yet somehow, in a speech delivered two weeks later, President Bush portrayed Abu Zubaydah as "one of the top operatives plotting and planning death and destruction on the United States." And over the months to come, under White House and Justice Department direction, the CIA would make him its first test subject for harsh interrogation techniques.
[...]
"I said he was important," Bush reportedly told Tenet at one of their daily meetings. "You're not going to let me lose face on this, are you?" "No sir, Mr. President," Tenet replied. Bush "was fixated on how to get Zubaydah to tell us the truth," Suskind writes, and he asked one briefer, "Do some of these harsh methods really work?" Interrogators did their best to find out, Suskind reports. They strapped Abu Zubaydah to a water-board, which reproduces the agony of drowning. They threatened him with certain death. They withheld medication. They bombarded him with deafening noise and harsh lights, depriving him of sleep. Under that duress, he began to speak of plots of every variety -- against shopping malls, banks, supermarkets, water systems, nuclear plants, apartment buildings, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Statue of Liberty. With each new tale, "thousands of uniformed men and women raced in a panic to each . . . target." And so, Suskind writes, "the United States would torture a mentally disturbed man and then leap, screaming, at every word he uttered."”

“Feel safer now?”

“Giddy Up Oom Poppa Omm Poppa Mow Mow”

“yeah they could have done like the Peace Loving people we are fighting in this WORLD WAR....you know Cut their head off, use a power drill to drill holes in their kneecaps.

Violin, this looks like another MAINSTREAM hatchet job on our heroes...you know like reading about a car wreck in the NY Times and saying..."Man I wonder if that is really true."


Just keep grasping at straws. THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING TO DO TO GIVE the LIBS a WIN. FOr Godsake they can't get a direction and give an example of HOW they would solve the problems.”

“Giddy Up Oom Poppa Omm Poppa Mow Mow”

“Of course, his being mentally disturbed wouldn't have stopped the left from using it as an excuse to crucify Bush for not doing more to follow up on the lead if a shopping mall had been blown up by real terrorists.”

“You mean like if he had responded to a memo entitled "Bin Ladin Determined to Strike in US" with an "All right. You've covered your ass, now."?”

“Giddy Up Oom Poppa Omm Poppa Mow Mow”

“LOL...one of the classic ways to avoid interrogation is to put on the "I am crazy" act. Granted NO WAY the Islamo Fascists would have thought of that.”

“They threatened him with certain death. They withheld medication. They bombarded him with deafening noise and harsh lights, depriving him of sleep.

Ha! Sounds like just a typical night at home with my wife and three kids. Torture indeed! If a terrorist would spill his guts over this I seriously doubt they are very high ranking...”

“"They Tortured him with threats of a night of wild debauchery with Janet Reno and Hillary Clinton."”

“Once again, violin glories in posting (alleged) American mistakes. After this and all his giddy posts concerning American troop deaths, is there anyone here left in doubt that violin despises America?





No, I didn't think so.”

“Violin, why do you hate freedom?”

“I've wondered the same thing. Who knows what goes through that scumbag's mind.”

“Where did the messenger go? I guess he's afraid of snakes. Not snakes, better, yapping dog's that lost the fox.

“LOL./..I like it guys, hey we had a CONFIRMED COMMUNIST in College in the 1980's this guy was a raving PRO Lenninst Marxist. He was a hoot...but he taught me to KNOW why I believed what I believed.

I often wonder if Violin throws these bombs to get us motivated. (LOL)

Course in light of the report that the two US soldiers were tortured and mutilated....I say Start at one end of the Traingle of Death and show what effect 96 hours of round the clock bombing by B-52's with 2000 lb bombs (something like 32 per aircraft) in the area. Just pulverize it if you are there...YOU ARE WRONG.

“Al Queda took care of them child molesters whom where in the twin towers.”

“With more than 3/4 of al Qaeda leadership killed or captured, they certaily have a lot of trouble recruiting competent help. Criminals, insane and misfits.

Abu Zubaydah was insane.

Zarqawi was a pedophile.

Out of all of Iraq, al Qaeda could not find one Iraqi to lead al Qaeda. They had to use Jordanian Zarqawi. Since his death, his replacement is an Egyptian.

The world is a lot safer with an aggressive administration killing and capturing these insane criminal misfits.”

“Wasn't Zarqawi the 'self-proclaimed' leaded of AQ in Iraq?

That insurgency still seems pretty severe to me. Ok 3/4 of the leadership may have been killed, but how many more have been recruited because of the invasion of Iraq?”

“Liberal’s war mantra, “Come on there’s still time for us to lose this thing!”.”

“i don't know, y2... how many? you tell me?”

“Heres the bet....if National Guardsmen start dying in Chocolate City (The Big Easy) how long before they call for the removal of our troops ?????

Hell we have dumped more FREE MONEY into NO with LESS RESULTS than Iraq...I say trade NO to the Islamo Fascists for Iraq (LOL)”

“Interesting. Violin raises troubling claims. Everybody attacks him. No one cares to address the substance.”

“ped...its a WAR. See A WAR is not a feel good game of Whatever...it is a game where the object is to Break Things and Kill people. The side who breaks more things and kills more people...WINS.”

“The real solution for Iraq is simple, but may not be to the Iraqis. We have to do something with 30 million illegal aliens.”

““Interesting. Violin raises troubling claims. Everybody attacks him. No one cares to address the substance.”

Really? I didn’t even read it. Why? Violin has proven himself invalid many times over through his misrepresentation of the facts and down right lying. I was attacking liberalism anyhow. =P”

“Nigal is right about the leftist writings....they make some crap up, write it and it is gospel until it is overwhelmingly disproven in the liberal media (usually consdered the "Lie but we still believe it mantra")> I say since the Press has such a break on printing CRAP, if you are found to have printed something that is a total fabrication the harmed party gets one free shot with a baseball bat to a body part. Say GW with a Louisville Slugger to Bland Blather's Gnip Gnops.”

“guys - GUYS! The issue here is that violin is an america hating douche who giggles at American casualties and mis-steps. Quit getting side-tracked on the issues - that's not where violin's mind is.”

“"Quit getting side-tracked ..." - Mutt

Sorry Mutt...but I thought GETTING SIDE TRACKED WAS pretty much a prerequisite for this site (LOL). Come on, I bet we could start a thread and not maintain a serious thread line for more than 10 or 15 posts.”

“If the Fox (violin) wanders to far off the TT trail, you hounds would be forced to go into the Google Meadow and dig up some Bill- Hillary trash, so, light up.”

“XL - according to the accusations, the problem wasn't that the US wasn't nice, it was going on wild goose chases due to torturing the wrong guy and not acknowleding the error.”
