Al Qaida targets Parliament Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

There is a report currently running on CNN that Blair's quick reaction in grounding planes in England was the only thing that saved Parliament from joining the Twin Towers on 9/11. Apparently an al Qaida cell in London was already at Heathrow when the grounding was ordered. They could not take off.

I don't know if Blair knew this before, but his vigorous support of the US in the war against terror now seems more justified.

Bravo Blair for your quick action that saved England from al Qaida on 9/11.

Put an end to popups!

Why did he order the planes not to take off? Was this just a coincidence or had the twin towers already been hit?

Big Ben 'was September 11 target'
June 12, 2002 Posted: 3:31 AM EDT (0731 GMT)

LONDON, England -- Suicide hijackers intended to target London's Big Ben on September 11, according to a British terrorism expert.

A group of al Qaeda operatives were at Heathrow Airport waiting to take over a jet and crash it into the Houses of Parliament, according to author Rohan Gunaratna.

Gunaratna, a research fellow at the Centre for Study of Terrorism and Political Violence at St Andrews University in Scotland, told CNN the attack was thwarted when flights out of London were grounded following the U.S. attacks.

The plan was intended to show the international reach of al Qaeda, he said.

"The attack was thwarted as a result of the attacks in New York and Washington," he said.

"Planes were grounded at Heathrow Airport and the al Qaeda attack team that went to Heathrow could not get into a plane in order to mount this attack," he said.

"Fortunately because of the level of alertness, the attack against UK targets was prevented."

He said the alleged attacker, who was arrested in India, had attended flying schools in Britain, Australia and the U.S., and received money from al Qaeda-connected sources.

"In terms of who recruited him, how he was recruited, where he was sent for training, it very clearly demonstrates that he was an al Qaeda member and this was his intention."

Gunaratna, author of "Inside al Qaeda," said he studied intelligence documents and had access to serving and former members of Osama bin Laden's terror network when writing the book.

He said his study revealed that al Qaeda had a "lose and learn" doctrine.

The terror group was prepared to lose operatives like Ramzi Ahmed Yousef, the 1993 World Trade Center bomber, in order to learn how to carry out such an attack successfully the next time, he said.

Much as I would like to believe this, one can't but ask: how comes that the Osamans, who pulled off that incredibly well-syncronized stuff in the US, weren't able to syncronize their UK op as well? Of course flights would be grounded as soon as the news about WTC spread.

Apparently someone in Greece sees the value of the alliance. If Greece really feels that way then why don't you join the Arab league. You could then say you are the most democratic country in your group.

and so since you support turkey's warmongering against our own lives
not only you are not democratic

but you are in the same league as osama

since your actions are not guided by democracy and the rule of law but by interests

You know. We really don't give a damn what the world thinks about us.

If it wasn't for the western countries all these years you would have a very different Turkey next you. One that really hated your guts and had no reason to live in peace. If I was you all I would be thanking the West for standing between you two for all these years and trying to support change in Turkey.
