The State [1] is reporting from Berlin that
“BERLIN — German police Sunday arrested two suspected al Qaeda terrorists — one attempting to buy enriched uranium for a nuclear bomb, the other allegedly planning a suicide attack in Iraq. German Federal Prosecutor Kay Nehm described one of the suspects, identified as Ibrahim Mohamed K., a 29-year-old German citizen with an Iraqi background, as a high-ranking member of al Qaeda in charge of recruiting suicide bombers and planning attacks from Europe. It is not clear if the uranium Mohamed K. was allegedly attempting to buy actually exists.
The other suspect, identified as Yasser Abu S., is suspected of planning a suicide attack in Iraq, the precise details of which were not known.”
The Financial Times [2] weighs in with the information that
“… the detainees may have smuggled hundreds of suicide bombers into Iraq. “
So, run this up against those who have been screaming that there is no connection between AlQuieda and Iraq, and watch the dancing. If they want more proof that the war on terrorism goes through IRaq, and that alQueida is what’s behind the terrorism there today, I can help, there, on both those points; I’m aware of several hundred more such links. The bottom line is these enemies of freedom are operating in Iraq. They’re still trying to obtain nuclear weapons. It’s what this has always been about.
The denials of the left not withstanding.
