40 terrorists arrested in Italy
24 terrorists arrested in England
17 terrorists arrested in Canada
2 terrorists arrested in Ohio.

Move along. Nothing to see.

Don't forget the 21 students that went 'sight seeing' on their own.

There were 2 guys in Texas City working in their apartment with this explosive last month when it went off.

The story has bubble up again on local "radar".

And the two guys (at least one a confessed illegal immigrant with a driver's license from Michigan) from the Republic of George stopped this week in Pennsylvania with 14 prepaid cellphones, $4.2k in cash, a "gutted" van (no chairs or interior), and a laptop with GPS tracking software.

Or the 3 Pakistanis who eluded the "3" prepaid cellphone limit per sale by working together to collect up 1000 phones. Anything higher than 3 is supposed to trigger an alert.

The last 3 claimed they bought the phones for $20 each and where planning to sell them for $38 each, without chargers or boxes.

It's not illegal to own that many phones, so there isn't anything the government can do to them.

But, of course, since the NYT has rendered our most effective surveillance methods null and void, we can't really know that, can we?

I thought the British didn't tell our intel services for fear of leaking. How do they (our intel) expect us to be vigilant if, they won't tell us what's going on?

Or batteries....Either they were using the Li-ion batteries to manufacture Meth (I'm not sure how they fit into the process), or they were really up to no good.

I don't believe for a second that the terror cells that are here aren't plotting other atrocities.

Some "Aryan supporters" were also apprehended in Texas today with pipe bombs.

Wonder why we never hear about "muslim suprmacists" or the MMM?

It isn't illegal but buying more than 3 such phones at a time triggers an alert.

They were circumventing that.

Same with buying benedryl. No crime in going around but it is circumventing detection.

Heard on the radio (Rush's guest host?) that was a false rumor. That we've been following it closely for weeks.

Wonder when the first Rat Senator is going to step forward to complain about the authorities letting it get "too close" to the plan going live.

The MSM is still playing the "right winged radical Christian Terrorist" tape from the OK City bombing days.

Still the eeeevil conservative whiteman. Of course, no one whose skin is darker than fishbelly white could possibly be involved in acts of domestic terror. Just ask Morris Dees. /sarc
