Jihadi Medical Corps!
Follow-Up On The Medical Terrorist Ring
In a previous post here, Spree gave us an excellent run down on the recent London failed terrorist attacks and the “missing nuke” stuff in Canada.
Today in the NY Post: OSAMA BLESSED BRIT PLOT
July 7, 2007 — The three car-bomb attempts in Britain were carried out with the approval of Osama bin Laden, it was reported yesterday.
“It was an established fact from Day 1 that al Qaeda was behind this and it was planned by its followers in Great Britain with bin Laden’s blessing,” a senior foreign intelligence source told The Times of London.
Bilal Abdullah was formally charged with conspiracy yesterday, making him the first suspected plotter to be charged, British officials said. He was to appear in court today.
Abdullah, an Iraqi-trained doctor, was the passenger in the flaming SUV that rammed into Glasgow’s international airport terminal last Saturday.
Abdullah, 27, is one of eight foreigners working for Britain’s National Health Service hospitals who are suspected of being members of an al Qaeda sleeper cell responsible for the attacks at the airport and a day before in central London.
“Other individuals arrested by the police in connection with the bomb attacks remain in custody pending a charging decision,” said prosecutor Susan Hemming.
“I have now made the decision that there is sufficient evidence and authorized the charging of Bilal Abdullah with conspiracy to cause explosions following incidents in London and Glasgow” on June 29 and 30, she said.
Details have emerged to show that Abdullah seems to be the key link between the suspects.
He had links to radical Islamic groups on the database of MI5, Britain’s intelligence service, security officials said.
“This is an international investigation now,” British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said after speaking with Australian PM John Howard. Australian officials are holding one of the suspects and probing at least five other doctors working in Australian hospitals.
Abdullah used to berate others at the University of Cambridge for not being devout enough Muslims. He teamed up there with Mohammed Asha, a brilliant neurosurgeon who was arrested last Saturday.
Asha and another suspected member of the cell made inquiries in the last year about working in the United States, the FBI said yesterday.
The two men contacted the Philadelphia-based Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates but apparently did not take the test for foreign medical-school graduates, FBI spokeswoman Nancy O’Dowd said. With Post Wire Services
From Right Truth:
It’s “logical to watch anything that happens in the UK as a potential precursor to future threats against U.S.,” says Thomas P.M. Barnett and I agree with him completely. We need to always be on watch, ever evaluating our procedures, watching what the terrorists are saying in ‘chatter’, on websites, and in videos.
Canon Andrew White, a senior Anglican priest who works in Baghdad, was talking to an al-Qaeda leader, and he was told “Those who cure you are going to kill you.”
… he met the man privately with a translator and sheik after holding talks with Sunni Muslim tribal and religious leaders April 18 in the Jordanian capital, Amman. He meets regularly with extremists in an attempt to calm Iraq’s sectarian violence.He said religious leaders told him the man was an al-Qaida leader who traveled from Syria to the meeting. The man, an educated Iraqi in his 40s and dressed in Western clothes, warned of attacks on Britain and the United States, White said.
“It was like meeting the devil,”(source)
Prime Minister Gordon Brown said there will be increased scrutiny of foreigners recruited for their skills, including doctors coming to work for the National Health Service.
Before September 11, 2001, the ‘chatter’ mentioned boxcutters. Today the chatter is talking about ‘hand grenades’ going off in places like New York. I think suicide bombers, or IED’s, grenades, are probably more likely than terrorist doctors in the United States.
And the Leftinistra say what, again?
UPDATE!
Is it CLEAR yet to the naysayers and the politically correct dingledorfs and the multiculturalist whiners?
Judas Priest, people, wake the HELL UP!! Video is here…

Go to Sprees for the analysis:
Has anyone seen recent reports of that old rock group the monkeys? As I was reading Spree’s take, and watching the news at the same time, all I could think of was:
Just plug in “Jihadis” or “suicide bombers” whenever you see the word “monkees”.
Just plug in the word “murdering” whenever you see the word “singing”.
Here we come, walkin’
Down the street.
We get the funniest looks from
Ev’ry one we meet.
Hey, hey, we’re the Monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But we’re too busy singing
To put anybody down.
We go wherever we want to,
do what we like to do
We don't have time to get restless,
There's always something new.
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But we're too busy singing
To put anybody down.
We're just tryin' to be friendly,
Come and watch us sing and play,
We're the young gneration,
And we've got something to say.
Any time, Or anywhere,
Just look over your shoulder
Guess who'll be standing there
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But we're too busy singing
To put anybody down.
(break)
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But we're too busy singing
To put anybody down.
We're just tryin' to be friendly,
Come and watch us sing and play,
We're the young gneration,
And we've got something to say.
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
[repeat and fade]
extra verse:
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees,
You never know where we'll be found.
so you'd better get ready,
We may be comin' to your town.
NO PUNS INTENDED
UPDATE!! Remember this?
Teams of al Qaeda-trained suicide bombers were dispatched to the United States and Europe from an Afghan camp 10 days ago, ABC News reported last night.
About 300 would-be bombers - including boys as young as 12 - were ordered to carry out attacks in Britain, Canada, Germany and the United States, the report said.
A Pakistani journalist invited to attend the camp took pictures of a Taliban commander congratulating graduates on June 9, ABC News said.
“These Americans, Canadians, British and Germans come here to Afghanistan from faraway places. Why shouldn’t we go after them?” the commander, Mansoor Dadullah - whose brother was killed by U.S. forces last month - can be heard saying on tape.
U.S. intelligence officials dismissed the graduation ceremony as “aggressive and sophisticated propaganda.” But Richard Clarke, a former counterterror expert in the Clinton and Bush White Houses, said the threat should be taken seriously.
“It doesn’t take too many who are willing . . . and able to slip through . . . to the United States or England [to] cause a lot of damage,” he said.
More than 100 people have been killed in three days of clashes between NATO and the Taliban in southern Afghanistan, Afghan officials said.
