Ok, skip the porno jokes, this is serious.
'Britons Could Attack Us' (http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30000-1259477,00.html)
The man charged with protecting Americans from terrorist attack has told Sky News he is worried radicalised Britons could try to mount an assault on his country. I knew it, I just knew it. Damn sneaky if you ask me.

My comment on the story:
Anna Botting is cute.
Other than that, this is a lot of ash and trash.

HA! The creators of South Park must have been paying attention. They included this unlikely scenario in their Clinton "snuke up the sniz," episode.

Seems perfectly reasonable to me. It's known that we have radical Muslims here, some of whom are British-born, and that some have plotted/are plotting attacks domestically. Makes sense for the US to keep an eye on them too, doesn't it?

And have been involved in suicide bombing in Israel.

In fact, not profiling potential perpetuators means you have to look at potential suspects from all countries.

Richard Reid is English. It has already happened.
The most frightening aspect of the current threat from Islamic terrorism is that it has nothing to do with nationality, it is about ideology- terrorists can come from any nation, whether traditional enemies of the USA, allied to America or even America herself.

Bhutan?
They didn't get TV until 1999, they clearly hate our freedoms ;)
Also, all that time spent not watching TV gave them a lot of time to plot things... :p

I believe I already said you can't ignore any country. Did you think I said something else?

when you said
In fact, not profiling potential perpetuators means you have to look at potential suspects from all countries. I took that to mean that under some circumstances, or with certain polices in place, you could safely ignore one or more countries. If I misunderstood you I apologize.
