me either I would like to know the original sources?

We all agree: It is very likely that something very big is very near. The "go" code has likely been issued, but we still do not know the timing.

So exactly WHEN? Is there some sign that will give us at least a little bit of warning?

I think so: A farewell tape from Osama bin Laden, personally.

If OBL died slowly (kidney failure?), he almost certainly made a farewell tape. That tape will be played just before the attack. (He might not have if he died suddenly in a cave at Tora Bora.)

If I am right, then the arrival of a final tape from bin Laden will mean the attack is about to start.
