"As recently as two weeks ago, the intelligence community was telling the Homeland Security Department that this felt a lot like the summer of 2001. "[We're] seeing lots of data, lots of information coming together that paints a very disturbing picture."

Enough said. Be vigilant!!!

[Senator Pardek]

Indeed. The EBS alerts (NYC) have been coming fast and furious.

[U S Army EOD]

I also heard that Santa Claus is installing a flare and chaffe dispenser on the sleigh. In addition he has been seen interviewing "Simon the Stealth Raindeer".

I like that!!!!

EBS alerts?

[cajungirl]

Are we getting so many warnings of chatter and such that sooner or later we will all just get fed up with it. I personally think that the terrorists in this country can't get it togetheer to do anything more than a car bomb. Now if one is the victim of that it is bad but people are killed daily in big numbers by our home grown criminals. I don't know about others but lately all these reports just don't stir me like they used to.

I don't know about others but lately all these reports just don't stir me like they used to.

Right now they are planning a way to do something more spectacular than 9/11.

Actually, I'm sort of surprised this hasn't happened several times already.

There's a reason for that. The reason is spelled A-N-G-E-L-S.

"Recent intelligence has counterterrorism officials increasingly concerned about pre-holiday terror attacks against soft targets, such as shopping malls"

Obligatory holiday cover yer ass warning. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

[Skibane]

I'm not the least bit concerned about terrorists, since my mall is a Gun-Free Zone™. I know this because there are signs prohibiting the carrying of weapons posted at every entrance...

[At _War_With_Liberals]

There will be no attacks until after the election.

They are praying to Allah for a Dean victory.

With a Dem victory, scrutiny will be lowered (Dems have already bought them off with this promise) and then they can move about more freely and can execute any plans in the pipeline.

To act against us now results in a total ass kicking by Bush, and the wrath of the Am people. This is why there has not even been a single gunshot in the US since 911. Crushing them in Afgan is the best thing we could have done.

[luvbach1]

So the terrorists actually know that a 9/11-magnitude attack would hurt Demonrat election prospects? I think it would, but might'n they think that a big attack would prove "Bush's War on Terror" is failing, and homeland security is ineffective, thus helping the rats?

[3catsanadog]

I totally agree with you.

[Salvation]

**"[We're] seeing lots of data, lots of information coming together that paints a very disturbing picture."**

Extra prayers for all at Christmas time.

[At _War_With_Liberals]

I totally disagree. They are waiting as the RATS subvert public opinion about the war. So far so good.

Muslims are patient people when it comes to WAR. Our technology and culture are based on instantaneous gratification. Not so with them. Even as there is peace on our soil, they are planning and infiltrating to the tune of 1000's per year. We let 70,000 arabs in a year. How many are dangerous? We know as much about them as their fake credentials tell us. And that's it. Muslim political power is on the rise big time in the US. It is obvious in all facets of our culture and politics. Just wait until we have Muslim judges and politicians, elected/appointed by RATS. Muslims are now part of the Dim base.

[At _War_With_Liberals]

Thanks. I live in a terrorist zone and I am pretty sure of this.

[Calpernia]

They want to do something more spectacular than 9/11. But they don't have the same intel or financial support as they did.

FWIW, the special interest groups by me are still running their businesses and children in school as normal. The specific ones I reference had dealings with WTC '93 and '01.
