German Train Bombs Meant for World Cup

You know, I was so interested in joining radical Islam today after that convincing speech by Adam Yehiye Gadahn, that up-and-comer jihadist from California, but then I heard this and I just couldn’t get myself to join the head choppers…
From the News.AU:

TWO failed attempts to bomb trains in western Germany in July had originally been planned for the football World Cup, a newspaper reported overnight.

The Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung cited security sources as saying interrogation of the suspects had established that the would-be bombers had abandoned the original plan as they had considered the implications of such an attack.

One of the bombs was found in July on a train in Dortmund, which hosted some of June and July’s World Cup matches. The other was found on a train in Koblenz.

Extracts of the article, released in advance of today’s publication, also said the suspects belonged to a “new generation of terrorists” who worked together in cells for a short time.

German police have said the bombs, crude devices made of propane gas, could have killed many people had they gone off.

The Daily Times is reporting today that the Danish Cartoons sparked the plot to blow up the German trains. Unreal!
