Bill O’Reilly reported last night that a new Duke University study revealed that there have been 139 planned attacks by Muslim Americans since 9-11. 41 of those planned attacks were discovered in 2009.
How’s that hope and change treating you?

It must be Bush’s fault.

Related… Not only were there more planned attacks in 2009 but information sharing was flagged and given higher priority during the Bush Administration.
The American Spectator reported:

When Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was placed on the British government’s watch list in May 2009 and banned from entering the country, the U.S. embassy in London (and by extension the U.S. State Department), as well as U.S. intelligence agencies, were notified of this move as part of information-sharing agreements entered into by a number of Western governments after the September 11, 2001 attacks, says a U.S. State Department employee on the condition of anonymity because of concern that by speaking about the situation, their job could be endangered.

“We have agreements with a number of different countries that work with us cooperatively on intelligence matters,” says the State Department employee. “A number of the treaties work through our justice departments or foreign offices or intelligence and interior or homeland security agencies. Several departments here in Washington got the information from London and it didn’t trigger anything within our own system.

This employee says that despite statements from the Obama Administration, such information was flagged and given higher priority during the Bush Administration, but that since the changeover “we are encouraged to not create the appearance that we are profiling or targeting Muslims. I think career employees were uncomfortable with the Bush procedures and policies and were relieved to not have to live under them any longer.”

The Obama Administration is attempting to shift blame for Abdulmutallab, pointing reporters to information that the Nigerian was given a visa by the U.S. embassy in London to travel to the U.S. in 2008, around the same time that he graduated from University College London, a well-respected university. But the State Department source says at that time Abdulmutallab was not on a watch list and traveled to Houston on that visa without incident. A year later, in May 2009, his application for a student visa to return to Britain was rejected because the college Abdulmutallab claimed he would attend was “bogus,” and that red flag was shared with U.S. State Department, Homeland Security Department, U.S. Justice Department, and almost certainly U.S. intelligence agencies.

  1. guess the Cairo speech didn’t work after all

  2. And to quote a fairly well known politician: “You ain’t seen nothin’ yet!”

    In another three years (if we last that long!) the fraud in the White House is probably going to know and understand what the WAR ON TERROR is all about.

    Thus far, his On-The-Job-Training hasn’t gone so good. A solid “F”.

  3. Mirandize those suckers. That will learn ‘em

  4. More evidence that DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH!

  5. Maybe they detect some weakness or lack of resolve?

  6. I’m a Roman Catholic American. Hi to all you Baptist Americans, Methodist Americans,Lutheran Americans,Nazarene Americans,Atheist/Agnostic Americans, etc. etc. The problem is they are MUSLIMS FIRST and American second. I am so tired of hearing muslin before American.

  7. 2009′s 41 plots is a 341% increase over the 14 plots per prior years average.

    I’m no mathematician but that’s seems like a lot….

  8. Hillary stands ready to advocate with Obummer to pardon each one of them after the commit a form of terrorism. This way she can get more votes in the future.

  9. obama is the worst president in american history. obama couldn’t carry President George W. Bush’s jock strap.

  10. Jamest155,

    Are you aware that Pres. Bush has written a book and it will be released in September of this year?

    Just before the mid-term elections.

    Hmmm. People, GIRD YOUR LOINS!

  11. I’m sure Obama wants our intelligence forces to follow up on leads, however, will he do anything about them once they’re confirmed? Or will he simply vote ‘present?’

  12. since the changeover “we are encouraged to not create the appearance that we are profiling or targeting Muslims. I think career employees were uncomfortable with the Bush procedures and policies and were relieved to not have to live under them any longer.”

    and thus they are relieved of the onerous and terrible task of keeping americans safe, theymust be so happy now that they dont have to be big meanies keeping an eye on muslims.

    if any of them ever visit this blog I only have one question,

    now that its such a relief not to live under the bush decree’s, how hard is it to wash the blood of the dead innocents such as that of ft. hood off your hands?…..

  13. Funny how the world doesn’t always go the way a platitude-spouting blowhard says it will.

  14. The Brits have gone PC barmy about Islam and the embassy officials that have been drinking their water need to be relieved – bring them home, NOW!

    Leslie H. Gelb @ The Daily Beast wrote “Only Muslims Can Stop Muslims” http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2010-01-07/only-muslims-can-stop-muslim-terror/?cid=hp:beastoriginalsC6

    “Only Muslims can argue with other Muslims about what the Koran says and doesn’t say. If Westerners enter that arena, the sole issues become infidel versus believer, and oppressor versus victim. It was one thing for the United States to enter the ideological and philosophical lists against Hitler or the Soviet Union. These countries shared a Christian and European heritage. But there has been little sharing between Western societies and Islam. What’s more, no one understands these truths better than Muslims here and abroad. They’re the ones always telling us that we don’t understand them. And they’re right. And that means they should be shouldering the primary burdens in the fight against the terrorists—and helping us understand how we can best help them with military muscle and money, but in a supporting role. It is simply not an acceptable future for the United States to fight the war in Afghanistan for another 10 years, keep Pakistan afloat economically while its leaders double-deal us, and attack Iran—all the while invading Somalia and Yemen. It certainly shouldn’t be acceptable for Muslims in these and other Islamic countries to accept Muslim tyrannies. They—the Muslims—must be the first line of defense. And U.S. and other world leaders have to find ways to let Muslim leaders know that this responsibility will be theirs. Nothing else makes sense. Nothing else will work.”

    Gelb knits a neat argument keeping his hands clean by passing the buck to the Muslims to fix what’s wrong between our people. I would imagine that the protests in Iran are exactly what Gelb is referencing without having mentioned or supported. However, Gelb absolutely ignores the reality that every level of Islamic culture is permeated to one degree or another with terrorists. Point being, Muslim terrorists have infiltrated our own intelligence and the Muslim armies and police that we train in the Middle East.

    Therefore, one would eventually conclude that if Muslims are either unwilling or incapable of directing their own future in the Middle East at peace with Western Civilization, given the reality of Muslim terrorists and their Jihad, the only rational solution is the horrible final solution that no one dare face. Would America rather see itself destroyed than see the death of Jihad? Obama enables Jihad terrorism against the USA, and disables our troops with PC, ordering the Karzai 12 Rules of Engagement, sabotaging the lives of our men and women in uniform.
