UK: AlQaeda plotting holiday attacks

So, as the voices of the terrorists are gleefully taunting Pelosi et al in a post-election bit of hubris:

“We haven’t had enough of your blood yet.”

“Come down to the battlefield, you coward,”

“The victory day has come faster than we expected,” he says. “Here is the Islamic nation in Iraq victorious against the tyrant. The enemy is incapable of fighting on and has no choice but to run away.”

CBS news is telling us that Al Qaeda is planning a holiday blitz:

Intelligence agencies have been warned that al Qaeda may be planning to attack air and rail travel in Europe in actions that may occur during the busy holiday travel season, CBS News has learned exclusively.

In separate interviews with Arab and other intelligence sources, CBS News has been told that the warnings come from interrogations of al Qaeda suspects who recently left Afghanistan and Pakistan.

It’s an important story, you’ll want to read it all, especially now that the press is now deciding to report that there may actually be terrorists in the world, after all.

And just think, now that the election is over, no one can say this is just Bush/Rove trying to “scare” us via the poodle Tony Blair.

Tigerhawk writes: before all our friendly lefty commenters go bananas, I am not suggesting that the Democrats agree with all the various dirtbags who are rejoicing their victory. I am, however, willing to say this: When you cite “world opinion” of George W. Bush as a reason to vote against him or his party, you cannot then object if others cite the opinions of enemies and adversaries who delight in your victory.

I’d say that is about right.

Jules Crittenden imagines the dialogue.

AJ Strata says: Attention Dems: please tell us you have a plan… please tell us that you are about more substantial things than political payback. Because, funnily enough..that’s all we’ve heard about thus far. Iraqpundit says, How ’bout it, Dems?

Meanwhile, a poignant posthumous honor for a true American hero and noble young man.
