Chambliss, sources: Terror chatter beyond anything heard since before 9/11
Fox News ^ | August 4 2013 | Staff

Posted on 08/04/2013 9:50:48 AM PDT by yoe

The so-called “chatter” about a terror plot that led the Obama administration to close 22 U.S. embassies and consulates Sunday across the Muslim world goes beyond anything heard before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, according to the top Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee and Fox News sources.

Sen. Saxby Chambliss, of Georgia, said Sunday the so-called “chatter” detected by U.S. intelligence agencies that led the Obama administration to order the closures and issue a global travel warning to Americans is "very reminiscent of what we saw pre-9/11."

[snip] A Mideast diplomat says al-Zawahiri “pressuring” Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula to launch new terrorist attacks on Western and American targets is “unprecedented.”

Sources also told Fox News the extraordinary volume of “chatter” follows months of “absolute quietness” on terrorist phone lines, computer outlets, websites and other communication outlets.

Isn’t this a misleading title? Terrorism doesn’t happen during the Obama Administration.

Will this be the story of the little administration who cried “Wolf” (”Wag the Dog”)?

Or will it be the story of the little terrorist who cried “BOO!” and watched the Chicken Littles running in circles?

Plus bear in mind that this is coming from Saxby Chambliss, a card carrying RINO who could not find his azz with both hands. I should know he’s from our state. Soon to be replaced by Paul Broun.

Does the NSA overreach and the fact that many in Congress are talking about restricting what NSA does have any relationship to this “crisis?” Just saying....

Exactly. Radical Islamic terror groups are the muscle for the globalists. They use them whenever they need to use fear to further their aims, a distraction or, for whatever reason, need to make their WH puppet (R or D) look like a strong man.

I don’t mean to sound jaded but why all of a sudden just as there is a big push back agains’t the NSA spying on all of us does this major chatter start up?

So we either have an attack by Al Qeada against the west, or a phony attack using Al Qeada fake stooges. To quote Hillary the Great...

Oh, the Islamic mischief on these shores could be great if their demon willed it (and God permitted it). “Leaving” would mean little if the beast were truly provoked. To them Israel is only the small satan, and the USA the great one.

Find and kill zawahiri— then the “chatter” will cease.
Chatter is a tactic....to determine methods and means, and response.

“Chicken little” can be a tactic, too. Complacency built from useless bulletins and toothless bureaucracy. Kill the bastards— break them on their ground— they want 12th Century, give it to them. And uh, let the house of saud know it, too— as we expand our shale oil and tell them to literally pound sand (back to the tents abdulllah mullah).

You are quite right. Fortunately He has made a free offer of same, and the only thing stopping us from it is our refusal.

That chatter is all the bulk gun orders getting submitted by Al Qaeda to McStain.

Could we not just appease Al-Qaeda by dedicating highways, boulevards and schools to the memory of Osama Bin Laden?

Works every time.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to deduct that terror master minds have been released from Middle eastern prisons and Al-Qeada has recouped their military with weaponry that has been left by American military.

Faux comm sec and opsec if this is a compromised system at the top— as in val jarrett and her “gal pals”.

Really— brennan, and jarrett— they couldn’t possibly be.... nawwwwh. Who vetts the vetters? This is like sci-fi.
