Apologies if someone's posted this already.
Religion of Peace attempted to go after Americans in Germany a few days back. Turns out the 'peace'-niks were trained (where else) in Terroristan, America's best friend and beneficiary of US billions. And yet the US did not see this coming... (Naivete or stupidity on their part, <i>or</i> is Terroristan a necessary helper of US interests in Asia despite all the risks involved?) So when's the next funds transfer from US to Pak going to take place?
Germany should ask the US government to reimburse them for the national expenditure gone to waste on defending US facilities from terrorists trained on American dough (6 months of monitoring expenses). And Americans should protest to get their government to stop funding the very country (Pakistan) which is training the terrorists who are after them.

German authorities are making clear that they believe they have foiled a major terrorist plot - and add that the country remains in the firing line.
"It has been shown once again that our country is a target of international terrorism and not just a resting or a withdrawal area for the terrorists," said the federal prosecutor at a news conference.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
The above incident has now happened about a year after the Aug 06 events:

A Lebanese student has been arrested in Germany on suspicion of planting bombs on trains last month which are believed to have been a failed terror attack.

Investigators first thought the bombs were part of a blackmail attempt, but they now believe the incident was the work of a terrorist group based in Germany.
A note written in Arabic, a telephone number in Lebanon, and packets of starch with labels in Arabic and English were found alongside the devices.

The interior minister said Muslims in Germany could do more to help counter Islamic extremists.

"The great majority of Muslims must say what they think more loudly - that they reject terror. After all it threatens Muslims just as much as non-Muslims," he said.
The Central Council of Muslims in Germany offered to increase its cooperation with the security services but warned against any blanket condemnation of Islam in the fight against violent extremists, AFP news agency reported.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
