Yesterday, in posting on the terror arrests in London and Toronto I speculated that they were related, and that we might be under threat of a simultaneous multi-national attack. I posited that such an attack would not likely include Canada, if it didn't also include a host of other countries, including Denmark and Sweden.
Well, it looks as if I might be correct:
TORONTO - A Canadian counter-terrorism investigation that led to the arrests of 17 people accused of plotting bombings in Ontario is linked to probes in a half-dozen countries, the National Post has learned.
Well before police tactical teams began their sweeps around Toronto on Friday, at least 18 related arrests had already taken place in Canada, the United States, Britain, Bosnia, Denmark, Sweden, and Bangladesh.
The six-month RCMP investigation, called Project OSage, is one of several overlapping probes that include an FBI case called Operation Northern Exposure and a British probe known as Operation Mazhar.

"The terrorist threat facing Britain has developed into a "covert conspiracy" involving hundreds of men and women living ordinary lives in the nation's suburbs, security sources have revealed.
Unbeknown to their families and friends, they form a silent 1,200-strong "army" of terrorists. They are believed to be involved in at least 20 major plots that they hope will bring death and destruction to Britain."

I just use the math my ibhadi and salafi friends have given me...
1-3% WILL act
30-35% will give active support, by hiding, moving or financing.
60% sympathize to SOME degree with the largest section believing the goals worthy, and the methods wrong but UNDERSTANDABLE
1-5% dead set against it, but terrified.
