Al-Qaeda's websites are getting blasted off the airwaves, one by one, and the London Times and Israel think it's MI5 getting frisky:

The web has become the new battleground of terrorism, permitting a freedom of communication denied to such organisations as the IRA a couple of decades ago.

One global jihad site terminated recently was an inflammatory Pakistani site, www.mojihedun.com, in which a section entitled How to Strike a European City gave full technical instructions. Tens of similar sites, some offering detailed information on how to build and use biological weapons, have also been shut down. However, Islamic sites believed to be “moderate”, remain.

One belongs to the London-based Syrian cleric Abu Basir al-Tartusi, whose www.abubaseer.bizland.com remained operative after he condemned the London bombings.

Don't they wish they'd done this two months ago? (H/T: Little Green Fooballs)

Me? I think there's a certain little Jawa out there, fooling with their droids.

And speaking of the IRA...you know that "shoot subway bombers in the head" policy in Britain that some folks are getting upset about? It dates back to the Thatcher years. From the American Spectator:

If shoot-to-kill for suspected bombers was good enough for the IRA under Thatcher, why should al Qaeda get a pass under Blair?

Umm...because Abu Ghraib? No wait, I know this one...Guantanamo! Or maybe Imperialism! Blood for oil! I got it....Karl Rove!
