#6 Beyond the denial that these guys are muslims, what really makes me grin is the commentators that admit, "well OK, these guys are Islamic terrorists," but then claim that they aren't Al Qaeda or are only AQ imitators. I guess that's why the investigation is expanding to seven countries. Denial is always so fascinating in a sick sort of way.

The imams are the recruiters and turn these kids over to the training, logistical, and operational networks. If you don't have informers and agents in the mosques, these kinds of incidents are going to continue to pop up.

#9 Raf: Anyone arriving in Canada, even with forged documents, can immediately apply for refugee status. That starts a multi-month (years in many cases) process wherein the person can just move and effectively disappear from the system. There are thousands of "refugees" who fail to show up to their hearings and melt away into whatever cultural enclave they want to.

The system is about as good at finding them as the US is at finding illegals. Basically, they don't even try.

#11 If my mother-in-law's family tree is typical of her compatriots, the requirements for Quebecois are that they all came over to Canada together from the same few villages in France, where they had been intermarrying since the Dark Ages, and proceeded to live next door to one another on this side of the ocean, never marrying our of the neighborhood -- except for the occasional Indian wife, of course.

Is that what you meant, Rafael? ;-)

#12 LOL, tw. I didn't know that, but it could explain some things now that I think about it.

Don't know why but I'm reminded of my favourite mother-in-law joke (translated). What's the definition of sorrow and pity? Sorrow is when your mother-in-law falls into a well, pity is when a crane pulls her out.
Or is it the other way around.

#13 The trailing daughters had to trace their family tree for a history class project. My darling mother-in-law's line was practically braided. ;-)
