3. "al-Qaeda elements in Iran"
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (04.23.13)
once again we are reminded that when it comes to hating the west, which includes all non-muslim countries, shia and sunna terrorists will cooperate willingly. jihad is what binds all muslims together. those who think that jihad is a legitimate tenet of islam are grossly deluded.
4. Congratulations RCMP!!

Good job! May you and the Conservative government of Stephen Harper continue to be blessed by Hashem.
5. #1:Argo?! WTF does it have to do with Islamic terror?
tom ,   tel aviv   (04.23.13)
you call yourself "real"... no, you're not. What's "real" is numbness of western minds on a mass-scale never witnessed in mankind's history. Even pre-WWW2 doesn't come close.
6. Carney is wrong

Tsarnaev can be denaturalized. In point of fact, that is precisely what should happen. He took an oath to "protect and defend the Constitution and the laws of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic" -- an oath which he clearly violated. Once stripped of United States citizenship, the United States government is free to try Tsarnaev before a military tribunal as a terrorist enemy combatant. That's an embarrassing lack of knowledge on the part of the White House spokesman. It's quite possible, perhaps even likely, however, that his boss -- the commander-in-chief -- did not know that naturalized citizens can be stripped of their citizenship. There's lots and lots of things of which the commander-in-chief is completely ignorant.

indeed you are right. he could be stripped of his citizenship, especially since he committed such a heinous act of terror only months after being naturalized. it is very doubtful that obama or eric holder would want to pursue that course of action given their ideologies.
8. Canada: This is not work place violence.

You have taken my Argo dig/comment too seriously. Western numbness to what? Growth of Islam in the West and the spread and threat of international terrorism?
10. I ask the Canadian people not to jump to conclusions
S Harper Too ,   Canada   (04.23.13)
The Canadian government will do everything in its power to determine the motives of the would-be perpetrators of this would-be tragedy.
11. #9:Now you're talking :-) I guess some things make me loose
tom ,   tel aviv   (04.23.13)
my usual sense of humor, sorry.
12. To: No. 10

"Police official tells reporters Chiheb Esseghaier of Montreal, Raed Jaser of Toronto arrested in connection with plot 'supported by al-Qaeda elements in Iran.'" Seems to me they already have.
