Is it my imagination? Or is corpomedia twisting itself into

[annabanana]

strange and wonderful shapes trying to avoid characterizing the 17 "terrorists" arrested in Canada? They say they were "inspired by" Al Qaida, or "shared many characteristics" with Al Quaida, but were of "diverse backgrounds"...

My guess?
One of those "Christian Identity" radical right wingnut groups....(intolerant, theocratic, etc)

Has anyone heard any more illuminating details yet?

1. No, but the artist's rendition on tv showed

faceless drawings many looking extremely muslim.

2. Interesting...

I would have thought that detail would have been made known immediately and clearly.. Why the shifty language then?

3. Canada?

4. Those puppies are sick. And I think calling tham Islam would only

serve to instill pride for sickos like that.. or all that follow. We should always call al Qaeda what it is.. a cult and a murderous one at that. They should never be called simply Islamic or Arab (or whatever other label these people could have if it comes to light). Those things are cultural identities.. and these people are not representative of cultural. Just a bunch of sick fucks.

5. no one has call the Canada 17 actual "Al Qaida" or even

"Al Quaida wannabees". They've been calling them "inspired by" etc.. We haven't been given any real information about them yet, as far as I can tell.

6. The Toronto Star released the names of some of them

7. Well that says all we need to know. We don't need any people

painted lumped in with them do to any cultural connection. I hope they keep calling them al Qaeda inspired and that is all. Cause that is really all these freaks are. Al qaeda ass puppets.

8. the pigmedia are like ted bundy

and we the public are young college type woman with long brown hair. bundy strangled his victims while sodomising them...the pigmedia is worse then that (whether the 17 terrs were real terrs or not, or whether the iranians forced jews to wear stars/david, or whether iraq had weapons mass destruction all are debateable - what aint debateable is the depravity of the corporate pigmedia, which cheered bundy's execution)
