1. I am so very close

to being convinced that the only terrists on planet Earth are those manufactured by BushCo and a few other world leaders involved in the quagmire.

2. Its quite funny

That they broke up a so called terror plot, at the same time, they are trying to push thru new anti terror laws!

I may be wrong, but I think the laws state the police can arrrest and hold anyone without charge, you are not allow to protest against war, or make fun of the prime minister.

4. The anti terror laws...

...got pushed through last week. He used this so called terror plot to get them passed!

This announcement is to get him out of the shit for spilling the beans on what was an active investigation.

3. Right when Howard's poll numbers were reported to be way down?

There's another one for the coincidence theorists.

6. Men at Work should write some new lyrics

about the Land Down Under,
where Zarqawi leads
and al Qaida plunder

7. Or, on the other hand...

they could actually have broken up a terrorist plot.

It's starting to be a little bit upsetting that we don't give anyone any credence when it comes to terrorist plots. If 9/11 were broken up before it happened, would we have mocked that intelligence success too? Or was 9/11 a BushCo plot? :eyes:

Just say they were part of a plot to DESTROY THE WORLD, and throw them in the Halliburton torture chambers!
