I remain unconvinced that they have any WMD that poses a threat of being a city killer. At best, they may have some WMD cocktails for limited use in subways and such.

I pray it is you who is right and me who is wrong.

There is PLENTY of evidence to suggest AQ has WMD:

Riddle me this..WHY on earth would DHS tell NJ cops that there are terror teams with suitcase nukes (which many of us believe AQ has). Entertainment value? Doesn't fly. Either the NJ cops are freepers, or this is what they were told. And if they were told this..I have every ounce of my being telling me there was a good reason to tell them that (ie: the sandmonkeys have nukes).

they could just be rattling off a list of POSSIBLE scenarios, and since everything is possible, its all mentioned.

Of course they have them, and the 'powers that be,' think they are in this Country. We are spending BIG money looking for them. Literally searching high and low for these things. That comforts me, in a way, because I think if we can find these things/thing, and stop AQ, this time, then we've stopped AQ, period.

If I may comment on your posting regarding the tension between your wife and you.

Women tend to handle stress with a flight response. They tend to be trained into this response by social norms (no doubt partly the reason you married her was that she did not challenge you directly). Her response is not pathologic. It's probably her normal response. She wants to interpret what's occuring through the emotion of the time rather than the unemotional rationale.

You are interpreting FR messages as directly risky to you and your family. Your response is to FIGHT. Her response is to FLIGHT. You are not assisting her by tranfering your tension and "fight response" to fighting with her.

She has already dealt with the terror created by 9-11. Her response is to flee the environment (get away from the problem).

After following this thread for months now, I am not convinced that Daleel Almojahid was capable of carrying out his threats. In particular, I believe that Daleel Almojahid was a manifestation of the actual Al Qaeda group, but that is a propaganda tool.

If their goal is the destruction of America, one methodology to destroy the nation is to destroy the family.

In order to destroy the family, the leadership role of the male must be disintegrated and replaced with another male role (which they are attempting to paint as Muslim/Islamic).

Do NOT allow them to play mind games with your family through you.

Although I am a board-certified physician and have been very concerned by terrorism's threat, personal discussion with our Congressman convinces me of the following:
1. FBI/CIA/Nat'l Security operations are capable of doing their job.
2. We inadvertently increase "chatter" when we're confabulate various scenarios (some of which are very strong attack models).
3. I can not increase productivity in our local economy if I am exhausted addressing "chatter" from the ilk of "daleel".
4. "Daleel" is no threat to me because the US Military has "daleel" in their gun sights.
5. The biggest threat to the US is lousy border control from Mexico and Canada.
6. The second biggest threat to the US is lousy port control.
7. Norm Mineta's Dept. of Transportation is doing a good job adjusting to the new demands.
8. The 101 and big red 1 do a great job at keeping the heat on our enemy and that prevents us from being direct targets.
9. Civil readiness has it's pitfalls. If you expend too much money on unnecessary "security" measures, then you have less money on needed items like fuel, clothing, and food. You need to have some fun.

So, quit worrying about AQ blowing up the city (which they've not done in 2 1/2 years) and start taking your wife out to a movie and dinner.

Hope my ideas help you out.

God bless America.

Pass me a DVD and some popcorn.

1) If they have them, why not detonate?

BTW -- Monmouth County Prosecutor John Kaye may well have been drunk, which is a very severe problem for him, when he was spouting off about who was told what.
