Look kids, Big Ben, Parliament

So that's why Tony Blair was such a hawk: today's NY Post sez that al Queda targetted Big Ben and Parliament for destruction on 9/11, but unexpectedly flights out of Heathrow airport were grounded after the US news.

They also say that the US death penalty is keeping Germany and France from giving the US a lot of information about "20th hijacker" Zack Moussaoui because of the US's pro-death penalty attitude.

(The Paki Islamist terrorists who blew up a bunch of Frenchmen a few weeks back were apparently unimpressed.)
