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.
Where were the moving vans during all this commotion.
BG posed a great question over at LF. Just where did these guys get 3 tons of ammonium nitrate? Did they casually stroll into the local Ace Hardware store and say: "...make a copy of this key and we'll take three tons of this here."?????
My larger point was to ask: Why wasn't the source of 3 tons of ammonium nitrate also busted?
Too many loose ends. The basic M/O is to not mention it and hope the sheeple don't notice.
Because it was the RCMP who sold it to them. This thing has false flag written all over it. They are comparing it with the OKC bombings. Welcome to Bushland Lite! Sadly alot of Canucks are now frothing at the mouth wanting to attack every Muslim country! Sound familiar?

That's what I thought as well. Welcome to Bushland Lite! You would think they might have just a bit more imagination. The thing about ammonium nitrate is it needs to be in an enclosed space, such as a drill hole in a quarry, for the gas expansion to do its job and displace the desired target, i.e. the rock. This is why OKC was such a complete fraud. But the average sheeple has no idea about these things. I have a hobby background in this area from collecting mineral specimens in various quarries and mines. It was necessary to know about the explosives used and that you stay away from a loaded field or stope. I've known a few mining engineers and they all say that it would have taken a tractor trailer load (40 tons) of ANFO to do any serious damage and then it would be mostly blown out windows with very little structural damage; not at all like the sheared columns we saw in OKC, definitely a sign that cutting charges were used. I've also known someone who was in UDT in WW II and he said much the same thing about explosives. Wrapping one's ignorance in the flag is not a solution to the problems we face. Sadly, blind patriotism is an emotional tool the elites have used successfully in the past. "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

hey, buffycat, nice to see you again.
