The fifth terrorist in Cairo is being detained for questioning. The agencies in Britain have discovered an International Terrorist Network and we only can guess where this is leading. The bathtub of high explosives opens up the possiblity of tracking down a good many more than just five terrorists especailly if the type of explosives came from the unguarded stores in the Iraqi desert.
Regardless, Euope is taking on global security unlike ever before and the terrorist element will be dealt with this time. It's about time Europe took the lead and the initiative to really solve these crimes. I feel better with them taking the lead here as When it comes to fighting the War on Terror(ists) the USA has settled on creating havoc in Iraq to protect it's crony interests and only when issues exacerbate with the troops do we see any movement to end this hideous element in our global society.
Australia's Howard is more motivated than Bush and I congratulate him and wish sincerely he would take leadership in Afghanistan to end the entire mess there. He would find the Afghanistan people are more interested in their government stability than anyone else and to that end they are a sincere ally to the cause. Cautiously they can be trusted but time and time again since the earliest of invasion following the attacks on the USA in 2001 the Afghan People have demonstrated extreme willingness to take back their country with only a loyalty to that end. The Afghan military have very adept men who are better suited for the harsh environment in the mountains and are a great asset to any military who stands at their side.
I believe there is a profound Taliban strong hold in the mountains between Pakistan and Afghanistan to say the least and even Presidents Karzai and Musharraf cannot deny that although they both are outspoken about Osama bin Laden being gone from the area.
That last time 'bin' appeared on the net was during the 2004 elections and he was so comfortable and appearing well healed and well dressed, if not in Afghanistan than perhaps at a Bush/Rove country estate. The international community needs to get serious about his whereabouts as I strongly feel the entire terrorist network structure will quickly disintegrate with his demise.
The Bush Administration is currently embattled domestically as their 'ego driven' decision makers are starting to show their true colors.
