A brief second post today.
Reports from Canada today say that two men had a plot to derail a train in an attempt to kill innocent people. The planned attack was "the first known Al-Qaeda-backed plot on Canadian soil" according to police. The plotted attack was reportedly supposed to be on a train heading from Canada to the U.S. The Canadian Royal "Mounties" arrested Chiheb Esseghaier and Raed Jaser today, but will not release the nationalities of these two men yet. The plot was said to have no apparent connection to the bombings in Boston.The Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper has yet to comment on the alleged terrorist plot.
The Radical Islamic groups aren't just going after America, they hate the West as a whole and they despise our independence. Luckily, this plot was stopped by the fine work of the Royal Mounties and tips from other local Muslims. Still, it's a sobering reminder that an attack is possible anywhere.
