In all truthfulness, I had second thoughts about even making this comment.

In contrast to the East Coast {NY/NJ area mosques and the Blind Sheik, Florida's Sami al Arian, Michigan's large Islamic population, and those sleeper-clowns they picked up in upper NY state} LA's large Iranian community is largely made up of Westernized Iranians who (for the most part) would rather see the Mullahs in Quom 'go down'.

The only thing I can remember even vaguely being a threat to the West Coast, other than those idiots who were recently sentenced in Portland (?) for trying to enter Afghanistan during our liberation, was that 'Millenium-Bomber' they caught at the Seattle/Vancouver checkpoint with explosives in his trunk who was headed to LA to supposedly bomb the LAX airport.

Still, I feel they are quite complacent out there since the 'action' has all been centered quite aways away from them.

You're pretty much right on target, with the exception of the 4th of July shooting at LAX's El Al counter.

I'm hoping things don't change, but they could well do so. I am convinced, ever since we found a diary written in Arabic along a well-travelled smuggler's trail here in Cochise County, AZ, that the terrorists are entering the U.S. along our porous southern border.

Couple that with their identification of Hollywood with the Decadence of the West, and you have a motive for mayhem in Malibu!
