interesting, the article says 3 men holding Israeli passports. You assume they are Jews. In addition, the article says the passports were Israeli... were they forged, were the individuals from Iceland, Turkey, Kansas City? Your leaps of logic betray you. If you were a statistician working for the FDA, you would have labels on cigarettes saying that smoking is good for you.

Emile! Where the hell have you been? I see you woke up hating America and it's close friend and ally, Israel, again. Make sure that you put a bib underneath your chin so that you don't get your shirt all wet with drool. <g> How are things going between you and your buddies in Al Qaeda?

Forged passports are commonly used by Arab terrorists. They were used in an attempt to hijack an El Al plane: Mughniyeh was the only one believed to have tried it before. On April 12[th] 1997, he was reported to be only two hours away from achieving the highest goal of any terrorist organisation (until last week): blowing up an Israeli El-Al airliner above Tel Aviv. A man carrying a forged British passport with the name Andrew Jonathan Neumann was in a Jerusalem hotel preparing a bomb he was supposed to take on board an El-Al flight leaving Israel, when it accidentally went off. Andrew Jonathan Neumann was very badly injured but strong enough to reveal later to the Israelis that he was not British but Lebanese, and that his operation was supposed to be a special "gift" to Israel from Imad Mughniyeh.
