Today is the one year anniversary of the London subway (or "tube") bombings by Islamic terrorists.
Michelle Malkin is busy working on the mother of all blogger round-ups. She highlights this noteworthy comment by Andrew Ian Dodge:
I am still incensed that the Muslim community spends more time whingeing about “islamophobia” than they do trying to route out extremism. I am incensed that whenever question about terrorist attacks by young British Muslims is posed Muslim representatives seem to be far more keen to blame Pres. Bush, Blair, Sharon or anyone else than the evil in their midst.
Also noteworthy: Drudge is reporting today that the FBI, working with international law enforcement, has uncovered a plot to bomb NYC's Holland Tunnel. And get this:
Counterterrorism officials are alarmed by the "lone wolf" terror plot because they allegedly got a pledge of financial and tactical support from Jordanian associates of top terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi before he was killed in Iraq, a counterterrorism source told The News. (emphasis added)
Financial support. But of course the liberal know-it-alls decided that our efforts to keep an eye on international financial transactions were simply a waste of time, so bye-bye banking surveillance program.
And obviously we got word of this plot through intercepted communications -- more evidence that the phone surveillance program was working before it too was torpedoed by the New York Times.
Fortunately we stopped this one, but how many more terrorist plots slipped through our fingers just so the New York Times could win a Pulitzer?
LaShawn Barber and Captain Ed have more.
