SNIPPET: "It was Hill who converted to Islam as a young U.S. Army paratrooper stationed in Beirut in 1958. It was Hill who learned fluent Arabic. It was Hill who joined the Mujahedeen Freedom Fighters in Afghanistan and fought the Soviet invasion there in the 1980s. It was Hill who personally met Osama bin Laden. It was Hill who used information from Islamic extremists to warn Rescorla that terrorists would use the underground parking garage for a car bomb attack on the World Trade Center. It was Hill who asked the U.S. government to assist him in an assassination attempt on bin Laden in 1998 (the request was rejected). And it was Hill who warned the FBI just weeks before Sept. 11, 2001, that his Mideast contacts told him "something big" was about to happen in the United States, in New York, Washington, D.C., or Philadelphia — maybe all three.
Through the Internet I managed to contact Hill at his home in Florida. He's 71 now. I asked him if his reputation as a terrorism prognosticator without parallel has changed his life much.
"Oh, that blew over pretty fast," he said. "Most of the people even in my hometown don't know any of that stuff."
He didn't want to talk about the past. He wanted to talk about the future.
The very near future.
The man who predicted 9/11 is worried that its sequel is imminent.
"Muslims that I talk to say things like, 'America thinks they're safe now. They've forgotten about 9/11. But watch, Daniel. Stay near your TV. It's going to be bigger than 9/11,' " he said."

Former Vice President Dick Cheney warned that there is a “high probability” that terrorists will attempt a catastrophic nuclear or biological attack in coming years, and said he fears the Obama administration’s policies will make it more likely the attempt will succeed.
In an interview Tuesday with Politico, Cheney unyieldingly defended the Bush administration’s support for the Guantanamo Bay prison and coercive interrogation of terrorism suspects.
And he asserted that President Obama will either backtrack on his stated intentions to end those policies or put the country at risk in ways more severe than most Americans — and, he charged, many members of Obama’s own team — understand.
“When we get people who are more concerned about reading the rights to an Al Qaeda terrorist than they are with protecting the United States against people who are absolutely committed to do anything they can to kill Americans, then I worry,” Cheney said.
Protecting the country’s security is “a tough, mean, dirty, nasty business,” he said. “These are evil people. And we’re not going to win this fight by turning the other cheek.”
From where I sit. . .
given my study of the topic for 44 years . . .
Your construction on reality is the one outside
. . . the reality . . .
most of us have to deal with . . .
Will be interesting to see how soon your construction on reality crashes and burns. Sadly, that’s not all that will be crashing and burning.
FWIW, there’s a difference between (say) packing a truckload of TNT with nuclear waste, vs. flying suitcase nukes over NY/LA/DC/etc. Both are bad, just different degrees of bad - and we in the peanut gallery prefer the clean cool totality of the latter.
Yeah.
I looked at it when it was first posted on FR.
Thanks.
Very sobering.
...says the guy who can’t even put a complete sentence on one line.
LOL....
It’s inconceivable that any terrorists are capable to producing such things, or refreshing those produced by others.
= = =
No.
It’s NOT inconceivable.
The experts have been for hire. There’s documentation of their working with Al Queda.
Also, your assumptions do not seem to take into account plain old CORRUPTION in high and not so high places in Russia and elsewhere. I’d have thought that OThuga’s Selection would have cured you of that assumption.
EVEN IF THAT WERE NOT TRUE, the globalists would find a way to insure that they had the weapons.
...says the guy who can’t even put a complete sentence on one line.
Thanks.
I love it when folks display their flawed assumptions so freely.
First I’d heard of using a nuke to release the giant slide in the Cape Verdes. There’s some sicko folks out there.
Thanks for your kind reply.
Is that the Canary Islands under sea slope of the big volcano there that’s all cocked and ready for a massive slide into deeper water?
Thx.
With the non-citizen in the White House, yes, Al Quaeda definately has nukes!
Nothing will be done to impede Obummer’s friends.
TOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUE.
FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR TOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUE.
. . . LOL . . .
ask Mummy if you can borrow a dictionary.
See
if you can detect a difference in meaning between
“can’t”
and “often prefers not to.”
Might be educational.
Then, again, might not. Some sponges soak up a limited amount of water.
On the other hand, with different fingers, I’m having too much fun being too ornery. [slaps fingers.]
I better recap here a point I made in post no. 64 that seems to have got lost.
I’m not interested in hypotheticals or conspiracy theories or breathless what ifs...
RECAP:
I posted this article just to ponder on those who hate us and those who have gone the extra mile to protect us.
Didn’t mean to misdirect your thread.
FWIW,
I don’t consider any such a conspiracy THEORY.
It’s solid fact, to me. VERY SOLID FACT.
The piles of facts proving it would fill libraries.
I also think
I’m much more into waking folks up . . . or trying to . . .
than I’m into pondering if’s of such topics.
