to return to the subject..
when members of the ISlamic community were asked to comment on the arrests
one response was;..'these are young people frustrated with the continuing Iraq war and Afghanistan etc..'

Canada stayed out of the IRaq war.
Despite the election of a US lapdog pm, (minority govt. at that) the Canadian public is overwhelmingly against the US war in Iraq, and even questions the increased emphasis on warfighting in Afghanistan without any stated goals for withdrawal.

It would seem the intent of a terrorist attack in Canada would be to to swing public opinion in favor of a more US style war on terror policy.
- which is ultimately designed to get more Jihadist recruits in the Islamic world. (Osama spends 50cents to get the US to spend millions)

So it seems that Jihadist websites are the latest recruiting and training tool - why travel to a training camp when its all on the net.

Why not a concerted effort to shut down or block these sites..or why is it so difficult?
