Shameless prostimotion
Power Line helped publicize with this post the story of three Algerians arrested in Italy before Christmas. The group was suspected of planning attacks in the United States.
Power Line's point was how so little of this story had played in the mainstream media. The post referred to this Redstate post, too.
Since then, others have referred to the story. For instance, The Lunch Counter, The Anchoress, Ace of Spades, ebenezer, Professor Namewithheld, Absolutely American, The End Zone, SoCalPundit, In The Bullpen, Real Clear Politics, The Zero Point, Never Yet Melted, A Time For Choosing, SarcastiPundit, Right Wing Nut House, Release the Hounds, and others.
I bring it up to point out that in our December 26 Winds of War Briefing, my briefing co-author C.S. Scott included an item on this story. It's the first one under the Europe topic.
So, if you keep up with the Briefings, you would've known about this long before the rest of the blogosphere picked up on it. Read the Briefing for all the latest news from around the world on the war against terrorism.
Also, C.S. Scott is part of the excellent blog The Security Watchtower. He graciously invited me to crosspost there from time to time. Yesterday I put my first crosspost there, my post on three current conflicts in Africa.
If you're interested in national and world security, the war on terrorism, defense-related issues and the like, you should be reading the Security Watchtower.

Thanks for the update on Africa. With all the dramatic events going on elsewhere, Africa tends to get overlooked. Events in the Darfur region of the Sudan certainly merit our attention, as even thought there is a "peace" between North and South, genocide continues in the Darfur region. And the plight of the Sudanese refugees in Cairo is pitiful and demands action on the part of our country and the world community.

Indeed, there have been thousands upon thousands of deaths across the continent in recent years. Hundreds of thousands in the Rwanda massacres alone. And you are right, Africa tends to get lost in the shuffle.

Ya'll are doing a good job connecting the dots. The MSM is bunch of dolts, it appears. Indeed, Jeffs one of the few I've seen who goes back and reconnects dots after the delayed-announced arrests of certain guys.
In fact, if you keep tracking all the arrests done in Europe, among other areas, you will see some very interesting trends and connections of various operations.
