Mumbai photographer: I wish I'd had a gun, not a camera. Armed police would not fire back - World news, News - Belfasttelegraph.co.uk

Armed policemen refuse to fire back at terrorist? Sounds like too much sensitivity training or perhaps the are acting under some very strange rules of engagement. Perhaps they knew these are still only "suspected" gunmen and must convicted as such by a judge and jury before they would be allowed to shoot back.

A Supertanker is easier to hijack than an airliner

2 January 2009 is coming soon, and Osama bin Laden has big plans:
There is debate on how effective a floating bomb would be.
While some analysts have said ships carrying crude oil or liquefied natural gas (LNG) could be captured and detonated, Storey noted that crude is not very flammable and LNG carriers are robustly constructed and include significant safety features.
Ships carrying ammonium nitrate are a bigger concern -- the fertilizer is highly explosive when mixed with fuel oil and was used in the Oklahoma City and Bali bombings.
When a fire detonated around 2,300 tons of ammonium nitrate aboard a vessel in Texas City's port in 1947, the blast caused a 5-meter tidal wave that swept through the town. At least 567 people were killed and more than 5,000 injured. Hundreds of homes were destroyed and two small planes were blown out of the sky.

Today in Piracy: Who are these pirates? What are they doing on my ship? - Posted: "During WWI the British Royal Navy employed 'Q-Ships' or decoy vessels with concealed weaponry which would lure a U-boat into making a surface attack then destroy it. By shooting and killing these pirates on the high seas and leaving the corpses for the sharks would save the expense of trials, convictions, appeals and incarceration. No worries about moaning and bleating from the 'human rights' industry either because, who would know?"

Jihad Watch: Somali jihadists reaping benefits of piracy

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.
