Failed London Multi-Car Bombing Does Appear Al Qaeda-Linked

They obviously bungled it pretty soundly, but this plot seems to have been the real deal, in terms of ambition and pedigree.  The connection to Dhiren Barot alone confers instant jihadi-cred.

Barot's known associate who's thought to have been involved in today's martyrdom-interrupted isn't yet in custody, but we have London's famous superfluity of security cameras to thank for the "crystal clear" picture of the would-be bomber that enabled the bobbies to ID him.

Crusade Media recently reported the following: "a new jihadi video, made in the same region, that purports to show a “graduation ceremony” of 300 aspiring suicide bombers headed for the West. According to an account of the tape on the ABC News web site, the ceremony was staged on June 9 at a training camp alleged to be operated by the Taliban and Al Qaeda. The video, recorded by a Pakistani journalist, shows groups of about 150 masked men—supposedly suicide bombers assigned to conduct attacks in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany and the United States." http://www.crusade-media.com/news80.html Also Germany is on high alert for suicide bombers: http://www.crusade-media.com/news79.html
