The Times Online<\/a> is reporting the arrest of a 32-year old man and his 25-year old brother on charges of providing a list of terrorist targets to North African Islamic radicals.  The 32-year old is said to have worked for the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland.  He was arrested by French secret service agents.<\/p>\n

According to the article:<\/p>\n

\n

“Agents were said to have intercepted messages in which the physicist, a Frenchman of Algerian origin, had suggested targets in France. <\/em><\/p>\n

“He is believed to have been in contact with members of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, an Algerian-based terror organisation that joined Osama bin Laden’s network in 2007.” <\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

We are being very naive if we believe the activities of this man are an incident rather than an indication of a pattern.  For whatever reason, there is a group of people in the world who believe that killing people in order to set up a world-wide caliphate is a worthwhile pursuit.  Now is not the time to go wobbly on the war on terror.
