We nearly missed this classic non sequitur in a Reuters story about
Mohamed Merah, the French-Algerian who murdered a rabbi and three school children in Toulouse last week:
Merah had been under intelligence surveillance and the MEMRI Middle East think tank said he appeared to belong to a French al Qaeda branch called Fursan Al-Izza, ideologically aligned with a movement to Islamise Western states by implementing sharia law.
But he had done nothing especially to arouse suspicion that he was planning an act of violence.
You really can't make this stuff up.
