Wolf Whistling
By Mark Steyn
Rich, re that "Man Arrested And Charged In Bomb Plot," don't worry about Señor Pimentel also being "known as Muhammad Yusuf." Mayor Bloomberg has already pronounced him a "lone wolf":
Mayor: 'Lone Wolf' Terror Suspect Arrested
Alleged 'Lone Wolf' Arrested In New York On Terror Charges
'Lone Wolf' Terror Suspect Arraigned In New York
So relax. He's just another working stiff from Local 473 of the Amalgamated Union of Lone Wolves. Any connection between Muhammad and any other Mohammeds, Mohameds, Muhammeds or Muhamads is purely coincidental. For one thing, Mr Yusuf was thinking of adopting the name "Osama Hussein," after Messrs bin Laden and Saddam, but worried that it might draw unwanted attention to himself. Which shows how little he knows about us.
So nothing to worry about. There'll be another lone wolf along any moment. All jihad is local.

Notable Quotables
"Don’t threaten us with cutting off your aid. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid."
~ Israeli PM Menachem Begin, in June 1982 at height of Lebanon War, responding to then Senator Joe Biden in front of Senate Foreign Relations Committee, after Biden had attacked Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria and threatened to cut economic aid to Israel (more here).
