What about that aWol report with the statistics showing world terrorism 'down'? Changed numbers just like all the other lying Repuke reports? And how could they say terrorism down when they are predicting a summer of terrorism? Shouldn't predictions be included in a report? I guess Franken is the only media source in America which will question this. Isn't this enough evidence to honestly RICO tthe American media?

4. Karachi cop killed in US consulate car bombs - IOL

By Aamir Ashraf

Karachi - A police officer was killed and at least 30 people were wounded on Wednesday when two car bombs exploded outside the Pakistan-American Cultural Centre in Karachi, Pakistan's biggest city, officials and witnesses said.

The explosions, less than 15 minutes apart, took place about 100 metres from the residence of the United States consul and about 200 metres from the US consulate, scene of a car bomb attack by Islamic militants in 2002 that killed 12 Pakistanis.

Information Minister Sheikh Rashid said it was too early to say who was responsible for the bombings, but they could be connected to Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda militant network.

5. Look at the diff between IOL and MSGOP reports. Notice how close

the bombings were to our consulate and his home but the MSGOP says 'neighborhood.'

6. US consul not target of Karachi bombings - US State Department

The target of two car bombs that exploded on Wednesday in Karachi, killing at least one person and wounding 17, was a privately run English-language school and not the nearby residence of the United States consul general in the southern Pakistani port city, a US State Department official said.

The official, citing information from received in Washington from US and Pakistani authorities in Karachi and Islamabad, said the car bombs were aimed at the Pakistan-American Cultural Centre (PACC) , which is not affiliated with the US government.

"We have no connection with this facility," the official said on condition of anonymity. "There are no Americans on its staff and there were no Americans injured."

How do they know what was the target? Could it be they bombers couldn't get close to the targets and left the cars in a place which had no cameras or police stationed? Maybe the bombers were expecting the Consul to drive by in a convey like in Iraq. Why isn't this mentioned by our professional journalists? Did in fact some high level people drive down this road near the time of the explosions?

ps. World terrorism will be down 'next quarter.'
