I wouldn't assume it is because of vacation time:
The clerk told me that recently the Mexican Nationals have been coming across and buying them up as fast as they can get them in. I mentioned that HS alerting that terrorist may be coming across posing as Mexicans and to pay attention to accents.

From a poster on the Final Phase Forum. I could not agree more:
"Key words of the Qaeda al-Jihad "Nuclear Fatwa"
Quote:
"Nuclear Warfare is the Solution for Destroying America"
In the name of Allah the most merciful. Thus, you are not mistaken in reading this text. This is the only way to kill the greatest possible number of Americans. The Americans have never experienced a threat like this one. During World War II, America used this [nuclear] weapon twice in three days...
Al-Qaeda ... has in its possession bombs which are called "dirty bombs", and bombs with deadly viruses, which will spread fatal diseases throughout American cities....
The coming days will prove that Kaedat el-Jihad [the Al-Qaeda organization] is capable of turning America into a sea of deadly radiation
Abu Shihab El-Kandahari

"If there is one thing I have learned in following Qaeda al-Jihad so intently over the past couple of years it is that they will do exactly what they say they will do. They are not BS artists by any stretch of the imagination.
I have as of this moment more than adequate reason to regard the threat issued in the statement above by Abu Shihab el-Kandahari to be the verbatim truth of their intent and their recent actions. I also know for a fact that I am no where close to being alone in this assessment."
