Police said the men were planning to commit a series of al-Qaeda-inspired terrorist attacks in southern Ontario. They had obtained components used in bomb-making, including three tonnes of ammonium nitrate. Officials said the group "posed a real and serious threat. It had the capacity and intent to carry out these attacks." Ammonium nitrate is a commonly-used fertiliser. "To put it in context, the 1995 bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City that killed 168 people was completed with only one ton of ammonium nitrate," said Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) assistant commissioner Mike McDonnell. "Our investigation and arrests prevented the assembly of any bombs and the attacks from being carried out," he added. The RCMP and other government security agencies have been conducting a lengthy investigation involving 400 people.

What a load of BS.
Yes, but it's BS with a purpose. Where is this leading?
Why, they're Iranian al-Qaeda doncha know. ;0)
would not surprise me to hear that nation mentioned in this newsstory
Hmmm, I wonder if Bibi was in town...I smell a quiet deportation coming.
Searching Google news on this "Netanyahu Canada", turned up this: http://www.pr.com/press-release/11642 http://www.cjnews.com/viewarticle.asp?id=9343 And this: Netanyahu: Hamas are Iran's proxies Hasbara can send students to pro-Israeli camps but the terrorists must first dismantle their "suicide kindergarten camps," Only thing of significance I found is that Bibi met with Olmert just before Olmert visited the WH about 2 weeks ago. And this is interesting too:
Project Thread Target Zahoor Hussain Viciously Deported Predict a "Thread II"...charges dropped, suspects deported.

Oh, that's what you meant by deported. Or arrested without defending witnesses:
