JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel accused six Arabs on Friday of trying to set up an al Qaeda cell in Israel and said one of them had proposed attacking helicopters used during a visit by President George W. Bush.

Israel’s Shin Bet counter-intelligence agency said one of the suspects had used his mobile phone to film helicopters at a sports stadium in Jerusalem that was used as a landing site for Bush’s delegation.

The suspect then posted queries on Web sites frequented by al Qaeda operatives, asking for guidance on how to shoot down the helicopters, the agency said in a statement.

Bush visited Israel in January and again in May.

Israel would be smart to ‘not’ discover any plot to shoot down a chopper with Hussein O on board. Save the non-Islamic world a lot of pain and suffering in the future.

That’s kinda harsh. Yeah I don’t like Obama and he would be the worst thing for the USA and world as POTUS but still, ill wishing of Democrats is bad form, that’s their game.

‘Assassination attempt’? I think even referring to this as a ‘plot’ would be a bit generous. ‘Wannabe assassins arrested while trying to organize’ fits the bill better.
