(what else do you call people who accumulate tons of ammonia nitrate) were not naughty school boys. According to police they had targets picked out that could have killed hundreds, maybe thousands of people. What I don't understand is that these people, for the most part, came from successful families. Families that found a good life in Canada. Are the Mullas the problem? Are the Mullas fanning the flames that drive people to these extremes? If they are, throw them out of the country.
There are lots of people in my community that have huge piles of ammonium nitrate they're called farmers, these same farmers also rutinely keep many hundreds of liters of diesel. The police identified no targets. We are happy because security stopped an attack. Will this be enough to wake up the citizens of Canada or will we endure the real thing if this dosn't steer us in the necessary direction. Rex U.S. Murphy dealt with this incident this evening on CBCs Cross Canada Check-up (cbc radio phone in show) half the callers attacked him for his bias and his portrayal of muslims. A very interesting program and thought by a good percentage of the callers to be very premature with so little details released about the alleged incident. I believe we as Canadians are being guided along a certain path as fast as is possible.
If elements of this group were tagged two years ago, why arrest now? Why not continue to watch and let them pick up others? What triggered these arrests at this time? IMO CSIS knew these arrests would be made last week when they advised us of the definite terror potential. :lol:
