Given the liberal mainstream media’s obssession with the tainted Downing Street Memos, one would expect them to be all over this leaked memo

A leaked British government document claims that al-Qaeda is heavily recruiting British-born and naturalised Britons to its campaign of global terror. The document revealed that Al-Qaida’s focus is on affluent, middle-class Muslims attending British universities and colleges. The recruiters target those studying “technical and professional” courses, especially engineering and information technology.

The London bombing, according to police, had the trappings of a highly sophisticated attack: all the devices on the Underground exploded within 50 seconds of each other, while the explosives themselves were not hand-made, but were small 10-pound (4.5 kg.) high explosives. Police believe that home-grown British terrorists, with no criminal records but technologically proficient, carried out the attack.

The joint Home and Foreign Office document “Young Muslims and Extremism,” prepared for the Prime Minister last year, found that Britain might be harbouring thousands of Al-Qaida sympathisers. Lord Stevens, the former Metropolitan Police Commissioner, revealed that around 3000 British-born or British-based people have passed through Osama Bin Laden’s training camps.

We shall see. It doesn’t implicate Bush in anything so it doesn’t sink to the usual journalistic standards for muck raking.

UPDATE:

Apparently Charles Johnson at LGF also ran across this tidbit. Wonder when ABC, NBC and CBS will???
