What you say makes a lot of sense.

I think OBL siad something about the "belly of the eagle", which most people took it to mean the US.

I think the terrorists will certainly be trying and I am sure they tried last year too. So you may not be wrong in your assessment, we just hope our law enforcement stays on the ball and catches the bad guys, locks them up ( or kills them) and ask questions later.

I think there was more to Padilla's connection to dirty bombs, than what the press said.

On June 9, 2002 Jose Padilla--a.k.a. Abdullah Al Muhajir--was transferred from control of the U.S. Department of Justice to military control. Since that time, Padilla has been held in a navy brig in South Carolina.

Padilla has been accused of plotting heinous acts of terrorism, particularly the setting off of a "dirty bomb". He has been accused of conspiring with members of al-Queda, and planning to scout for that terrorist organization, using the benefits of his U.S. citizenship. President Bush has designated Padilla an "enemy combatant".

He was arrested at Chicago O'Hare airport.
