It's not like they went away

"Israel has accused six Palestinians of having tried to form an al-Qaeda cell in Jerusalem, and says one of them had proposed an attempt to assassinate George W Bush by attacking the US president's helicopter during a recent visit," according to the Sydney Morning Herald. "The main suspects' family and lawyer, however, denied the allegations. They said their sons and clients entered the websites linked to al-Qaeda out of 'curiosity'."

Rico says curiosity is one thing, but one of the suspects "allegedly sent a message to a website linked to al-Qaeda and asked about shooting the presidential helicopter down" after "observing the helicopter pad and photographing it with his mobile phone", which sounds a bit more than curious...
