President Bush dodges a bullet
Israelis make arrests in alleged plot to assassinate 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.
Sounds like a pretty sophisticated plot!

Sounds like a sting.

Sounds to me like a 'credible threat' of a rumor of a possible event that means the Occupant's life is at risk.
Leaked to boost His JAR, imho.

If they wouldn't have had the power to tap Americans' phones, they never could have seen this plot.

I hadn't thought of it that way; my mistake.
Think they can break that ring in the EU waiting for the Dem nominee, too?

Sounds like the opposite to me, unless you consider broadcasting your intent all over the Internet to be a sophisticated tactic.

Sounds to me like a forum post that has a sensational headline not used in the actual article, for the purpose of instigating sarcastic mockery about how close these guys actually were to carrying out a plan.
But maybe that's just me.

Kinda like getting a bunch of doofuses in Florida to be led by an FBI agent in a pledge to support AlQueda.

Sounds like an joint Israeli-US strike on Iran's nuclear facility is under way.
