#1 Another possible target making the rounds is France: A group of suspected Islamic militants arrested in Italy and Belgium appeared to have been planning a suicide attack in Paris, according to an Italian detention warrant seen by Reuters on Wednesday. The 27-page warrant includes transcribed telephone conversations in which the suspects discussed the Paris metro system, security arrangements and a "martyr" referred to as Mohammed.

Must be another "Mohamed", this one is too important to blow himself up.

The warrant, used to detain Ahmed and the other suspect in Milan, quotes members of the group as saying they planned a rehearsal of an attack in Paris using SMS mobile phone technology. The Milan prosecutor's office said the method was similar to that used in the Madrid bombings.
Why not, it worked before. If they had boomed a Paris subway underground, death toll would have been much higher.

You better start working on your little comment about how it's all Israel's fault now.
