31. Bush used term "Islamic Fascists". Does he finally get it ?
D- ,   San Diego, USA   (08.11.06)
It is a miracle ! And, by far, the biggest piece of news in the article above if it is true. In the past, it was always particular groups, like Al Queda. However, new groups are constantly popping up from the Islamic community, like this group, to carry out the same attacks. We always hear, "A previously unknown group...yada yada yada..." It has been obvious for quite some time that Islam is actually at war with us. Finally, an accurate statement that offers us some hope of resolution, from the President, "We are at war with Islamic fascists."

Neal ,   NJ,USA   (08.11.06)
You are the worst propagandist going. You have it backwards genius. At first the Gov blamed the Basques but then determined it was Muslims. You trip over your own tongue like the 9/11 hijackers in American strip clubs. They have videos of your allah brothers chasing their 72 virgins before 9/11. See you on the battlefield

I'LL GIVE YOU THAT THEY ALL DIED BECAUSE HIZBOLLAH FIRED FROM THEIR BUILDINGS. WHAT ABOUT THE ISRAELI CASUALTIES? SOMEHOW YOU PEOPLE NEVER MENTION THAT! THEY WERE TARGETED AS CIVILIANS BY THE TERRORISTS! LEBANESE CIVILIANS WERE NEVER TARGETED, THEY WERE ASKED TO LEAVE BEFOREHAND BY THE IDF. WHAT OTHER ARMY IN THE WORLD DOES THAT? THERE IS A MAJOR DIFFERENCE. YOU ARE COMPARING A SOVERIGN STATE DEFENDING ITSELF BY GOING AFTER THE TERRORISTS WHO VOW TO DESTROY IT TO THOSE SAME SCUMMY TERRORISTS WHO GO AFTER CIVILIANS IN AIRPLANES. LETS NOT FORGET THE 241 AMERICAN SERVICEMEN AND THE ARGENTINIANS THAT HIZBOLLAH MURDERED. IN THE PAST. WHAT YOU ARE DOING BY WRITING THIS POST IS JUSTIFYING TERRORISM. SO WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE FOR 9/11? THIS IS PATHETIC AND DANGEROUS.
34. MUSLIM TERRORISTS
(08.11.06)
Those terrorists who plotted to bring down the planes are of the same kind that committed the 9/11 crimes, that are fighting Israel in Lebanon, that plotted to blow up parts of Toronto, Canada, the list goes on:Mumbai,Bali,Indonesia,London,Buones Aires,Tel Aviv,Jerusalem, need I continue? They were and are all Muslim fanatics. To all the ones who are still defending Hizbollah,Hamas, and putting down Israel:WAKE UP!!!!!! All of us as westerners are on their lists!!! They all subscribe to the same destructive ideas.
35. Frank the Frenchie...
Eric ,   Chicago   (08.11.06)
...is just being a normal Frenchie. I lived in France the past 3 years and people like him are the norm. Only last week did I finally relocate to the US again.....and if I never have to live/work in France again, it will be a good life. Thank the heavens these 24 in the UK were caught before they could strike. Liberal politicians in the US are shaking in their boots now because, once again, they're being proven so very wrong. Excellent job to the good people in the UK who were involved in stopping this terror cell....same to Pakistan, the US and whomever else was involved.
36. #3 DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE WHAT YOU SAID?
Keith ,   NY<usa   (08.11.06)
If you believe that there will be peace from a ceasefire, then I got some Arizona beach front property at a good price for you to buy. Wake up!!
37. Red Cross Helps Terrorists!
Michele ,   Long Island, NY   (08.11.06)
Maybe the Red Cross should step in and help these terrorists....just like they help the Hizbolla in Lebanon...you know, they are probably not being treated so humainly now that they are suspects to such a horrific plot, and they need assistance!?
38. answer to #4
Shelly ,   NY   (08.11.06)
Maybe if you wouldn't let them fire from your building, you wouldn't have a problem? Huh? What do you think we are all stupid???? Bet if somebody in your building is playing loud music at night, you all don't allow it, so how could you allow missle launchers in your building? Please....
39. to #9
(08.11.06)
Good idea, but sad that this world has come to this.
40. oh, what do you know...
Mike ,   Canada   (08.11.06)
you're on to something...say, wasn't the Armenian massacre a CIA plot as well? Just to make the Turks look bad and promote US interests in the region, you know... oh well, I guess idiocy was never considered a crime...
41. Terrorists
Joe Simon ,   Kfar Aviv, Israel   (08.11.06)
This is the same thing that Israel is fighting in Lebanon. Terrorists. The world acts as if there is a difference between terrorists in England and terrorists in Lebanon. They are all exactly the same garbage, and like any other garbage must be thrown out. Anything short of total destruction of the terrorists only convinces the terrorists that they cannot be stopped.
42. to George 17 to 25
Franck ,   paris (France)   (08.11.06)
perhaps you have your eyes closed, but 9-11 "à l'américaine" has been prepared very carefully ALSO inside USA. The twin towers were full of explosives one month before the 2 planes come. All rhe cicil and military organisation were prepared a month ago AND SPECIALLY THIS DAY to HELP the planes hit the towers. Concerning Washington, it was OBVIOULSY a cruise rocket ,not a plane (where is the plane, tell me). But if you prefer to keepp closed eyes, sorry if the rest of world doesn't agree with this war fiction. You, USA, have the most unsane government of all ages and all countries. But freedom AND JUSTICE will win.
43. And The World Keeps Appeasing These Arabs &Condemning Israel
H ,   Jerusalem   (08.11.06)
When Israel retaliates against these terrorists who hide behind women and children, the arabs, who understand the mentality of the western world, yell "innocent civilians are being killed by Isarelis". Consequently, Israel is asked to stop the war. Now the Arabs, who sees the weakness of the world, have the upper hand and do as they please since nobody will fight them if they're amongst civilians. If the world will not eradicate these terrorists EVEN IF THEY HIDE BEHIND WOMEN & CHILDREN, there will never be peace. These women and children who protect the terrorists are accomplices to the crime and deserve the same punishment. TIME FOR THE WORLD TO WAKE UP AND REALIZE THIS.
44. #43 Ofcourse!!!
USA   (08.11.06)
We are hoping everyone will understand that! It is essential to the USA and internationall community to wake up! For those who are sympathetic to the Islamic terrorists, do they think they are safe? Also it is unfair for Israel to have to fight alone with the international communities enemies.
45. "We knew nothing"
Eddie ,   England   (08.11.06)
Here's a prediction: if the suspects detained in Britain are tried and found guilty, none of their family members will ever have known anything at all about their activities (any more than they did when their sons/brothers/cousins/nephews left Britain to fight for the Taliban in Afghanistan, or travelled down to London on 7/7 to slaughter some infidel dhimmi for the glory of Allah). Strange how solitary all these traitors are claimed to be; I thought muslim family ties were supposed to be closer and more extended than that!
46. #43
A. Price ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (08.11.06)
exactly! this stupid political correctness that we are all made to adhere to is going to be the death of us all. not just israeli's, but the whole western world. whatever happened to calling a spade and spade? are we willing to continue with this charade of tea and crumpets until we're all dead?
47. Lets get to the point
Ugotweedman ,   Los Angeles   (08.11.06)
If you think this will ever stop you are kidding yourselves. If you say Islamistorists can be negotiated with? You are a nut case! Islamic followers need to litterally kill these people that promote murder based on their god, or face the death of all practicng that religion. Those that practice this religion need to remove their scarfs, denoce all terrorist acts, and find a way to pray alone in their homes and not in groups because what I see is many deaths coming here in the USA and in Europe to these "Peace Loving" people. Peace loving means killing those that take these dispicable actions based on what you believe in. If your neighbor killed the kid nextdoor because he egged YOUR home, then killed a motorist for flipping you off, would you hide this person from the cops or turn them in? ALL ARABS BETTER WAKE UP SOON OR YOU ALL WILL BE TAKING A PERMANENT DIRT NAP
48. #4 SAMI WHAT R U DOING IN USA

49. #45
A. Price ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (08.11.06)
they ARE closer and more extended than that! you see, for abdullah to spend quality time in building the bomb, auntie ameera cooked his meals, uncle ahmed drove him to and from the mosque for parts pickups while cousins amad, amar and amer sang him songs to keep him up at night. meanwhile, daddy rashid and mommy warda kept the cheerleading squad going. please...there is no such thing as lone ranger with these people.
50. NO DIFFERENCE?
MOLLY ,   LONDON   (08.11.06)
Really,so you think there is no difference. Well the difference is that they were told to leave if they were innocent but the hizbollah kept these people hostage and allowed them to be killed so that you could write this letter. Why should people who have nothing to do with this war be killed ?
51. Tם Franck
Freya binenfeld ,   Israel   (08.11.06)
I can see that you have been indoctrinated by your clergy and you really beleive their lies. When will you wake up and investigate for yourrself what really happened. Not everything in this world is a zionist plot.against the poor defenceless muslims.
52. to the sane one
Molly ,   London, England   (08.11.06)
Thank god there is one sane freethinking and intellegent moslim in this world. Good on you sport
53. PC consultationson terror
Laura ,   London   (08.11.06)
the worst aspect of the 'terror raids' (other than they did not succeed....so far) is that our Police consulted in the early hours of yesterday morning with Moslem 'Community leaders' to let them know about the arrests - just in case they got offended by the fact that only 'British-born Asian men of Pakistani descent' were suspects. To find out who these stalwarts of the Moslem Community are check here http://www.eureferendum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=26309&highlight=#26309
54. ABU RUSTUM THEY WERENT MUSLIMS EH??
SAID AKRAM ,   AL AHMADI KUWAIT   (08.11.06)
NO THEY WERE JUST INNOCENT PEOPLE TRYING TO GET A JOB DONE.. FOR SUCH AN ERUDITE PERSON U SPEW HATRED, AND I ASSUME THAT IS BECAUSE U ARE EITHER IRANIAN OR SOME OTHER MUSLIM NATIONALITY. ENGLISHMAN JUST DONT BEHAVE THAT WAY, THEY HAVE OPINIONS BUT VOICE THEM IN AMUCH GENTLER MANNER. i UNDERSTAND UR ANGER AND FRUSTRATION, WE ARE ALL ANGRY AND FRUSTRATED...BUT U SIT IN UK ASSUMING YOU UNDERSTAND OUR HURT AND PAIN..I DONT THINK SO.. MAYBE ITS TIME YOU USED UR INTELLIGENT MIND AND YOUR VOICE TO BRINGING TOGETHER PEACEFUL THOUGHTS INSTEAD OF HATE FILLED WORDS THAT DO NO GOOD HOWEVER U CUT IT, THERE WAS NO EXCUSE TO KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE A LOT OF THEM MUSLIMS ON THE WAY TO USA...WOULD U FEEL THE SAME IF YOU WERE ON BOARD THE DESIGNATED FLIGHTS..WHAT WOULD U SAY THEN.
55. I like arabs
mark ,   zimbabwe   (08.11.06)
Dear friend, arabs are people like us and they have customs that the occidental world need years and years of evolution to have. But the problem is in islam religion " اقتلوهم ارهيبوهم ". (kill them , terror them by all means christians and jews. islam is the problem
56.  To #1
JM ,   US   (08.11.06)
I agree!! That is why Paris has not been hit. Imagine the Eiffel Tower going down in flames and the Lourve hit. France would surrender in less than a minute.
57. 24hrs and BBC still hasn't blamed the Mossad
Arie ,   Afula   (08.11.06)
Must be a new record
58. Arie in Afula BBC didnt blaim Mosasad explained
Turkmann ,   Vienna   (08.11.06)
The answer probably lies in the 9/11 truth movement being on the crest of a wave of media exposure. Distinguished scientific minds and brave citizens have now blown open the lid on evidence of government sponsored terror and how they control the society through the power of nightmares. The movement itself, already on the lens of quite a few main stream media big names like C-Span, is about to burst out full time from the sidelines into the middle of the road. Similarly, just like the 9/11, the July 2005 London bombings too, have been now proven to be a British intelligence operation and the alleged ringleader, Mohammed Siddique Khan, to be working for MI5.
59. To Frank the French
George ,   US   (08.11.06)
Appeasing the Islamos has worked well for the French, for now. It's just a matter of time before TERROR hit you. Then, I will be there to remind you that it's a French inside job. But again, you may be insane enough to beleive it yourself. Last, you are right about "freedom and justice will win". I hope the Islamos will show you how it works!
60. to George ,US
Turkmann ,   Vienna   (08.11.06)
Just tell me, to be sure who the real aggressive forces are: When was the last time a muslim country invaded or occupied a "capitalistic" one or hit it with a atomic bomb to save it? One finger is enough to count? And now try the other way round... All fingers of your broader living quarter is hardly sufficient - or? No substract the first sum from the second - what do we get? You see why resistance in builing up and who is the agressor? Or are you still blind to facts.
