Jihad Watch: Somali jihadists reaping benefits of piracy

It has always been a Muslim tradition to rob and loot caravans, after all that is how the Prophet Mohammad got his start, so seaborne piracy is just a logical extension. Al Qaeda has been promising something bigger than 9/11 and their number two man was critical of Barrak Obama for his apostasy. A great deal of ransom money has been extorted from ship owners and no doubt some pirate loot will be used to finance terror.
2 January 2009 is a good guess as any as a time for the next big one. The where should be somewhere around the Horn of Africa. Perhaps a radiological bomb contaminating some oil field in the Middle East would be another good guess.
