Default Bush: Canada is terror threat

*efforts to prevent another domestic attack are increasingly focused on
disrupting plots by homegrown western extremists*
IOW Dubya is gonna start rounding up citizens. *Prevent* means before any
*crime* - *disrupting* means arresting. And *homegrown* means citizens.

As in the UK, they'll lock your ass up for denouncing Dubya's kooky kriminal
kabal's foreign policy.

And you thought CPS was bad.

It won't be long now.

Bush: Canada is terror threat
Sheldon Alberts, CanWest News Service
Published: Wednesday, September 06, 2006
WASHINGTON -- Decentralized cells of Islamic terrorists operating in nations
such as Canada pose a growing threat to the United States as it fights the
war on terror five years after the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, U.S.
President George W. Bush said Tuesday.

In a major address updating his administration's strategy to fight
terrorism, Bush said White House efforts to prevent another domestic attack
are increasingly focused on disrupting plots by homegrown western extremists
inspired -- but not necessarily commanded -- by Osama bin Laden and
al-Qaeda.

"As al-Qaeda changes, the broader terrorist movement is also changing,
becoming more dispersed and self-directed," Bush told an audience of
military officers in Washington, D.C.

"Militant extremists who were born and educated in western nations were
indoctrinated by radical Islamists or attracted to their ideology and joined
the violent extremists' cause. These locally established cells appear to be
responsible for a number of attacks and plots, including those in Madrid and
Canada and other countries across the world."

Bush was alluding to the arrests in June of 17 Toronto-area men allegedly
conspiring to attack targets in Toronto and Ottawa, including a strike on
Parliament Hill.

Canadian and American officials have said the suspects were not planning
attacks in the U.S.

Bush has consistently praised Canada's counter-terrorism efforts despite a
State Department report in April that identified Canada as a "safe haven"
for Islamic extremists.

To coincide with Bush's speech, the White House released an updated version
of its National Strategy for Combating Terrorism. It does not mention
al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden by name, saying "the enemy we face today in
the war on terror is not the same enemy we faced on Sept. 11."

Al-Qaeda has been "significantly degraded," the documents says, but the
group's leaders have spawned devoted followers who are instructed to carry
out jihad by "increasingly sophisticated use of the Internet" and the media.

"Al-Qaeda's leaders no longer need to meet face-to-face with their
operatives. They can find new suicide-bombers and facilitate new terrorist
attacks without ever laying eyes on those they are training, financing or
sending to strike us," Bush said.

The U.S. president last week described Iraq as the central front in the war
on terror, but the White House strategy document places far more emphasis on
battling the "smaller cells" of extremists devoted to al-Qaeda's extremist
Sunni Muslim ideology.

Even so, the White House strategy document provided few new details about
how the Bush administration was adapting to meet the changing threat, other
than to stress current efforts to deny terrorists entry to the U.S., disrupt
their international travel, finances and communications.

Compared to the first version of the White House counterterrorism strategy
in 2003, the updated document placed far greater emphasis on the threat
posed by Shiite "extremists" who control Iran and terror groups such as
Hezbollah.

Echoing concerns the administration had about Iraq's weapons of mass
destruction capacity in 2003, the new U.S. strategy document states: "Most
troubling is the potential WMD-terrorism nexus that emanates from Tehran."
