Thanks for this post...

by now we all have realized that terr(ori)sts involved covertly or
overtly are quite intelligent people, well educated at times, with a
clear agenda, and therefore, it is simple common sense that if Dr.
Haneef was part of the Glasgow conspiracy then how come he would let
his SIM be used by his activist cousins intentionally.

So, on the very face of it he is innocent, but the Australian cousins
of Bliar-Bush believe otherwise. Obviously there is oil running in
their veins instead of blood.

Few years back i met an White Austrailian lady and she told me that
how Whites barbequed Aborginals of Australia in the quest for land...
