Morocco Dismantles Al-Qaida Cell
2010-04-27
Morocco says security forces have broken up an al-Qaida-linked militant cell that was planning attacks throughout the country.
'Broken up' might mean broken bones ...
Morocco's state news agency quotes the Interior Ministry as saying the group consisted of 24 militants. It said the group was "planning assassinations and acts of sabotage" targeting the security services and foreign interests in Morocco.

The agency news report says four of the group's members had been jailed previously on terror-related charges. It says the group also recruited Moroccan citizens to send to conflict areas such as Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia.

The suspects were captured after an assault on a police officer in Casablanca.
Way to stay under the radar, O Stupid Ones!

Captain Renault? ("We musn't underestimate "American blundering". I was with them when they "blundered" into Berlin in 1918" - but that was pre-Obama.)
