TORONTO (AP) -- Canadian police foiled a homegrown terrorist attack by arresting 17 suspects, apparently inspired by al-Qaida, who obtained three times the amount of an explosive ingredient used in the Oklahoma City bombing, officials said Saturday.

2. Exactly

Think about this angle. These terrorists were planning major attacks against Canada. A country who has been very critical of the war on terror policy. Very critical of the war in Iraq. Why would muslim terrorist attack Canada? It does not matter if you are for them or against them. It does not matter if you are silent or outspoken about what they do. It does not matter if you try to fight them or not. It does not matter if you try to stop them here or overseas. You have to listen to what they say. They are very open about what they want, and what they plan to do. What they say is first the Saturday people then the Sunday people. And, we have 1,000 years to convert you or kill you. What they want to do is finish what Hitler started, and convert the entire world to Islam. All you have to do is listen to what they say in Arabic. No one in the western world is immune. And few in the western world are listening.

3. How could the POLICE do this?

I remember when the smirking chimp made fun of John Kerry for thinking "law-enforcement" could stop terrorism.
