I guess it was the other 30% that prompted the recent "Orange" alert, as well as all those radiation detection guys in our major cities.

Many cities remain on Orange alert.

POTUS and VP say the threat is still very real.

Potent enough (30%) to make our Gov't nervous.

70% is wishful thinking.

Boy, you're just full of positive outlook, aren't you?

Sure..the threat is real. 30% of a nasty threat is still a problem.

I think the point that was being made is that we are DECIMATING the bad guys organization.

This is good, and I believe it.

BTW..I'm one who thinks that NOTHING WILL HAPPEN < 2/4. All of the angst here is from Message Board posts, that could have been made by ANYBODY for crying out loud.

I'm reading this thread much less lately because while there are a lot of smart people posting here, many have been pulled in by - well, I'm not quite sure what. But you sure have to wonder how smart, educated people can believe the world is going to get whallopped based on some UNSUBSTANTIATED AND UNPROVEN message board posts that could just as easily be being made by a teenager in Idaho as a "real" terrorist or terrorists.

Just MHO. Sorry to rant, but this whole thing has been getting to me and it's hard to see why anyone is giving it credibility.

POTUS comments - sure. VP comments - OK. "EOM" and "Daleel"..gimme a break!
