So will Canadians Become more Sympathetic to American's on the Terrorism Issue?
Will this scare Canadians to want troops withdrawn or will it convince them to stick closer to the US? I am not sure which will happen.
Suspects arrested last weekend in an alleged terrorism plot planned to storm the Canadian Parliament and hold politicians hostage, and at least one wanted to behead the prime minister if demands to withdraw Canada's troops from Afghanistan were not met, according to a summary of prosecutors' allegations read in court Tuesday.
According to authorities, the group also planned to bomb power plants in Ontario and invade the downtown Toronto studios of the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., according to the written statement submitted to the court by defense attorney Gary Batasar and read into the record at his request.

Terrorists living in the west are dumb for trying; every agency is watching.
As long as the US is in the Middle East we'll be vulnerable. Arabs are never going to forget - they will always be thinking how to get revenge for our foreign policy in the Middle East - they'll never forget and never stop trying to achieve revenge. Our meddling will compel Arab countries to pursue new technologies that enable them to circumvent ours and give them the ability to get revenge. And this does not include nuclear weapons. This time, unlike the cold war, we can blame US foreign policy for the long term war on terror that forces Americans to pay for it for decades and leaves Americans vulnerable to attack. Canadians are no different; they'll fall for this 'meddling policy' hook, line, and sinker, because they'll want and demand their government keep them safe. "Our government is our worst enemy."
I'm optimistic -- but the issue is still in doubt, IMO. (Link from Instapundit).
