I agree, it is curious. But has anyone confirmed it's the same person who posted as EOM prior to 9/11?

I just can't believe that if this guy is real, he hasn't been arrested, truth-serumed, and dispatched to Gitmo. In fairness, let's assume he's for real and the federal gov't is not moving on him because they are busy mining info from his sloppy behavior. I can buy that. But at some point, getting ahold of him and finding inways to his connections would become a priority. I think he would be apprehended by now if anyone took him seriously.

Secondly, al Qaeda has show in recent bombing it is not particularly worried about killing other Muslims in it's terror operations. Why on earth would they bother warning three entire cities to evacuate at risk of (obviously) exposing an immenent operation? It doesn't wash.

This is why the John Allen Mohammad sniper attacks were SO plausibly Al Qaeda (before we knew the real source): It was RANDOM, it was UNANNOUNCED, it TERRORIZED the public into fearing sending their children to school and going to gas stations, for crying out loud -- that's terrorism! Not "I got a warhead and I know how to use it" -- that's so much tripe. I live nowhere near Virginia and I was looking over my shoulder at the gas station.

It's not al qaeda...

As far as EOM is concerned, is it even possible that he/she is one of us..meaning CIA or FBI to flush out other internet chatter, to fool the terrorists into a response to EOM.. as a way of flushing them out? I have been following this thread from the beginning, I'm sure someone already suggested this....probably a lame idea:)
