cameras are usually pointed at the reporter with the cameraman's eye in a cup rendering him with tunnel vision... a shot from behind would only give the cameraman emmy award winning footage as he would then swing around and catch nothing but the first white vehicle he sees on tape...

what needs to be done, is a search of area convenience stores'surveillance tapes, near and around the gas stations, to see if any patrons are visiting the crime scene locales... this sniper has to scope out the areas, and probably uses the rest rooms and buys snacks for his long drives.

also, he needs to purchase fuel, so i would check for duplicate credit card purchases in and around the crime areas to see if there is a pattern...

finally, i would instruct the public not to behave normally, but when they here a shot, run in the direction of the shooter and look for suspicious characters or vehicles... this guy will not be captured by the police doing the investigation route, but by the immediate community steppin up into the militia role.

and that is why they should be armed...

I think the sniper is part of the worldwide jihad. He stops on weekends to let the big international news stories have the media focus, and starts up again in the week to taunt the police and the public for maximum attention. The French tanker explosion and the bombing in Bali are more important to the overall cause than sniping around DC, so he doesn't detract from those stories.

The message from al-Qaeda leaders claiming Osama is alive that was talked about just before the shootings was a signal to launch new offensives. Another message is said to be on the way. Jihad goes on, whether or not we fight back. But they want us to fight back... Counterattacks (even arrests in Buffalo and Portand) give some cohesiveness and sense of purpose and unity to the general Muslim American population that has become comfortable in America and really isn't all that anxious for a full-scale conflict. Jihad recruitment needs some stimulation, and counterattacks are the best bet to swell the ranks of these self-destructive indignant warriors for allah.
