But Germany isn't in Iraq!

Germany just avoided a terror attack:

An investigation launched after two bombs were found in the German cities of Dortmund and Koblenz late last month is increasingly pointing to a terrorist link, a German newspaper reported on Thursday.

The daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung quoted unidentified "high-level security experts" as saying there was a "strong probability" that the bombs, hidden in luggage found on trains at the cities' stations, were part of a terrorist plot.


"Increasingly pointing to a terrorist link"? What was your first clue, Sherlock? The bombs? Their placement in luggage indicating they weren't just non-terrorist hobby bombs being transported for purely legal reasons and carelessly lost? Or their placement on trains?

Aside from the powerful deductive reasoning on display, I can only say that there must be one huge German army fighting inside Iraq right now. Because we all know that the Iraq War is what angers otherwise peaceful Moslems into becoming jihadis and motivates them to attack Western civilians with all that ball bearing and beheading stuff. I mean, really. Shame on us for provoking that.

I'm just thankful that the bombs did not go off before being discovered. A lot of innocents would have been killed. Though if they had detonated, it would have made it easier for the crack investigators to divine those tell-tale signs of terrorist plots.
