Regarding the latest twarting of a terrorist plot in Canada.

What's your take on this?

We don't really need the TSE... do we? :winkwink:

Hehehe...you're right. We don't really need Toronto either :winkwink:

Naw, the TSE is oldschool, but I think we need the TSX.

BEFORE anyone says anything I knwo it's THWART not twart ROFL, just waking so still have one eye shut.

terrorists in canada??

cheers

Our southern cousins can laugh all they like, but as soon as the terrorists make bail they'll be heading for the Peace Bridge - where your lameass Customs officers will hand them a roadmap to the American landmarks.

There was a great little story on CNN about a road to the US in Michigan or something. There are no customs, just a "honour system" video phone booth.

Seriously, if the American gov't was really concerned about terrorists coming in via Canada you'd think they'd have the Minute Men up here and a few thousand miles of barbed wire fence... for starters.

It does seem a little convenient that this happens a couple months after the right wing extremist war monger Stephen Harper gets elected. Just like 9/11 happened months after the right wing extremist war monger George Bush was appointed. I'm not sure if I buy it. Now Harper has a better chance of getting a majority government with his "war on terror" and "God bless Canada" bullshit.

On the bright side, that would mean Canada would sacrifice some of their young men and women as cannon fodder in Iraq to make a few rich people richer, so it would save a couple of our boys.

Isn't the Supreme Court about to make a decision on an anti-terrorism bill? Interesting timing...

I believe this shit happens in every western country.
I am thankful they were caught and will be prosecuted.
Canada has been on Bin Ladens list for a few years.
With troops in Afghanistan and worldwide, the extremists have warned
canada they will be attacked, its just a matter of when.
Having homegrown terrorists is nothing new, look at the UK and Spain.
There is splinter cells worldwide and tracking what these groups plan/do i'm sure is a hell of a job for our governments.
I only pray that CSIS and other intelligence angencies can
stop them. :2 cents:

lol....exactly:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I just watched the same piece. They made it into a scare story, but on their quick flash of the map, you could see it was an anomaly. On the Canadian side of the lake, a small county belongs to the states. But NO PART OF IT touches the US at all. It's on the north side of the lake. Very similar to Point Roberts, WA. Once you get there, you're still surrounded by Canada. It's a non-story.

canada doesnt have any terrorists!

It's impossible for any country to stop domestic terrorists 100% of the time. That's why the war on terror is such a scam, there's no way we can stop terrorism if people continue wanting to attack us.

Asymmetrical warfare (terrorism) is a very effective tactic. That's why the US used it so much in our illegal Latin American wars. All the government in the United States has done has been to protect themselves; the people in the administration, Senators, etc. They're pretty well insulated now. The rest of us citizens are in much more danger now than we were on Sept 10th, 2001.

The answer is to stop colonizing countries and making people want to bomb us. They don't hate us because of our freedom, lol. France went through the same thing in Algiers for about 8 years in the 50's and 60's as we're going through in Iraq now. Only now we live in a global world, so we're in danger at home as well. Some people will never accept being colonized, no matter what fancy words we call it at home.

Good point :thumbsup
Scare all us Canadians into thinking we are doomed, then allow all sorts of bills to be passed while our attention is side tracked listening to terror plots that were found out and spoiled

Either its just coincidental timing - or else we should start an inquiry to find out how much it cost to hire 17 arab-looking dudes and have them convincingly play the part of terrorist wannabes.

Maybe instead of lengthy jail sentences...they'll each receive a Gemini Award?

whats a Canada?

I fully agree with you but in the end isnt it OUR Goverments job to protect us from such? Of course it is, but as you said, they protect their interests and themselves before us mere citizens. :2 cents:

it's where they keep the moose.

Reason # 4,783,738,829 I don't live in the US or Canada. Y'all have fun with those muslim cocksuckers now, ya hear?

What's the population of Anonymity these days?

Is that one of those kiss-ass countries that sits on the fence or frantically waves a white flag everytime a world issue arises that requires action?
