Thanks..hope you are right. But I still wonder if they would worry more about the politics of Red vs. the practicality of it. (What if they don't believe the bad guys, and think they are bluffing? God help us if this is the case and the Admin is wrong).
Here's the link that scared the bajeebus out of me:
http://www.worldthreats.com/al-qaeda_terrosism/wmd_terror.htm Sure seems plausible to me that AQ has WMD, and that it would be a cakewalk to get them into the US. And, once here, I'm sure they want to use them.
The other thing that got me going today is the fact that Italy's main paper ran front page headlines on the "AQ threatens to nuke NYC by 2/2" story. As I told the wife..this is like the NYT of US running the same story. Not just something you get off of the 'net, but a "respected" news agency. Scary stuff when THESE types of outlets print stories like that.
Even with all this..the airplane angle STILL doesn't make sense in this context.
