london_070705* of al-Qaida's European Jihad branch, stating that they were attacking the "British Zionist Crusader Government." Which is, of course, ridiculous.
But the irreverent part of me wonders. Wouldn't this mean that there should be a ministry of (caped) Zionist Crusaders? (I can so picture a comic here. Something with kibbutznikim debating politics of the collective, perhaps, before our caped hero comes to resolve the discussion?) Or greater encouragement to eat Israeli fruit? Or governmental support of the Israelis? Or at least a greater variety of kosher sandwiches in downtown London?
* And I'm impressed with the LJ community again. The account was started this morning, and people are checking in, offering help, and so on.
