Iraq

Of the thirteen people arrested in terror raids, eight have been charged with conspiracy to murder and conspiracy to commit a public nuisance by using radioactive material, toxic gas, chemicals or explosives.

Now it will be interesting to see how this case pans out, but had it not been for Bush and the US, things might have been so different. As Juan Cole muses, did the Bush Administration squander a highly placed double-agent within Al Qaeda, and adversely affect the British raid, simply to score points off the Kerry Campaign.
