#1 Yet, because these groups dont start out with an antiU.S. focus

Neither did the Japs or Hitler. More wonking from a beltway, Georgetown genius wannabe. Maybe we should tell him what we told the Russian border guard years ago...."Phuech you Ivan."

#3 The most important element in the whole investigation is that Jamaat ud Dawa was recently labeled a terrorist organization by the Bush administration. Could this labeling have motivated the plot in the first place?

Jamaat ud Dawa was designated a terrorist organization on April 28, 2006 because it was linked to last year's July 7 London bombings.

This is wacky conspiracist nonsense. What is depressing is it gets published in a national UK newspaper.

#4 Thankfully not.

This is independent.org (the think tank) not independent.co.uk (the paper).

Not much of a think tank, if this is the sort of garbage it puts out.

Eland is really, really sloppy. He also used to write for the Cato Institute. I wondered if they dropped him after one too many errors of fact. Cato had a few isolationist types who wrote pretty well, in terms of supporting their ideas with good arguments. Eland was not one of them.

#8 "The Bush Administration Makes New Enemies Daily"

I certainly hope so.

If you can judge a man by his enemies, George Bush is one of the greatest men of all times.

C'mon, Mr. President - piss off some more of the ~~commies, terrorists, and leftist assholes~~ usual suspects. ;-p
