Al Zarqawi also marks inauguration

I have deliberately stayed well away from anything that might actually tell me what GW Dubya and his minions have to say, or indeed anyone with the regualr silly MSM thoughts about the inauguaration. Infact, yesterday (jan 19) we cancelled our cable subscription. No more television news. So, I have blissfully missed the inauguration.

I ask only this, when was the last time Al-Qaeda attacked when and where expected? But some Intelligence idiot figured that on Jan 20, 2005 circa-midmorning, give or take a few hours, Al-Qaeda might pay Dubya, at or near the WH, an inopportune visit. Who's fucking who, here?

Anyway, al Zarqawi seeminlgy also marked the occasion. From The BBC:
"At least 13 people have been killed in a car bomb attack on a Shia Muslim mosque in Baghdad, Iraqi police say... Worshippers who had been celebrating the festival of Eid were leaving the building when the bomb went off.

The blast came after militant leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi denounced Shias for fighting alongside American troops in Iraq. In an audio recording, Zarqawi also told his followers to expect to fight US-led forces for years.... The tape's release coincided with the Eid festival, and with the inauguration of US President George W Bush for a second term in office."
That's all.

The quest for ignorance knows no boundaries.
