NO CREDIBLE THREAT…NO CREDIBLE NEWS?
Sometimes, it is hard to know what you make of what is happening. Just yesterday the media (except the BBC, nationally) were reporting that our security services had successfully disrupted what was termed a plot to kill Pope Benedict in London by Islamic terrorists (aka North African Cockney Street cleaners, cleaning the streets Londoners just won’t clean) Now we read that they presented “no credible threat” and that it was all based on an overheard conversation. What do you make of this? Is this an attempt to protect funding from within the Security Services or was this a genuine anti-terrorist operation? Oh, and WHY do we need Algerians to sweep the streets of London?

Great find, not familiar with that but will look for it.
Deinitely looking to protect their funding; same as the current assertion that we face threats from somalia and Real IRA types. I was never particularly worried about “terroriSts” since how many can they kill at any one time compared to, say, road kill?
An excellent find Katabasis – I’ve downloaded it, and will pass the link on.

You answered that earlier in the post:
“Cleaning the streets Londoners just won’t clean”
