Germany’s Terror Troubles Not Yet Over
It seems while Germany has detained three terrorists in a massive bombing attempt, it is now learned that ten other terrorists are still possibly on the loose:
German police are hunting ten further Islamic radicals involved in a narrowly thwarted plot to blow up hundreds of people in German airports, bars and restaurants.
â€There are Germans, there are Turks, there are other nationalities,†said August Hanning, the deputy Interior Minister who is co-ordinating the search with the intelligence services.
Three men – two Germans and a Turk – were arrested yesterday after a spectacular police operation foiled an attempt to convert some 750 kilos of hydrogen peroxide into powerful explosives.
â€There is no further danger to Germans from this terror cell,†said Mr Hanning. “But there is still a mission to carry out attacks within Germany and this mission worries us.â€
I am not convinced 10 terrorists on the run attempting to gain access to heaven and their portion of virgins means there is no further danger – but I applaud the German government for avoiding their 9-11 or 7/7.
Don’t forget that Atta lived in Hamburg for awhile.
