Gosh, I don't know. Mr. Peach is watching football and hoping he isn't getting a cold. I should have stayed with him in the other room because ya'll are scaring me a little.

I couldn't help but be left with the inference that a jump straight to code red was given very serious consideration by these guys during those 72 hours of deliberation. From some of the comments on this thread, you are certainly not alone in your observations. I missed Bloomberg's press conference and hopefully what was said was posted somewhere on a thread.

On another thread some freepers were saying Ridge "Is the Perfect Candidate for President in 2008" - that's great because "President Ridge" would ensure the GOP goes the way of the Old Whig Party - LOL!

What gets to me is they say there are no specific threats. Yet, distinct targets are being mentioned and not in a vague fashion ie: bridges, monuments etc. But names of facilities and methods of delivery. So once again they know more than they are telling us.

I'm also considering that my own nieghborhood would be on a pretty good list of targets to hit on 25 December. Considering it's a place that is always on national news that day, with a dense crowd of a ten-twenty thousand, and no gates to access i it -- access is open..

that would happen anyway. what do you think, Libya would come to us and tell us we developed nukes and gave them to AQ, but now we want to confess and "give up", so that when they are used against the US, you won't attack us. that's like your neighbor calling you 30 seconds before the bomb he planted in your house goes off to inform you, so you won't blame him when it goes off.

but they have been working on this Libya thing for a long time, it all didn't just happen in the last week.
You are correct...I think I read that negotiations with Libya were 9 mos. or so in the making. Maybe Quadafi (sic?) got a good look at Hussein's public humiliation and vanity got the better part of him...maybe he decided to give something really important up?

Well, it could be that's the very fire-drill now occurring.

Who is this guy, Steve Quayle? I've never seen this website, it seems pretty specific - is there any credibility here or is this like another Debka?

You're evil. I like that in my friends. :)

Just thinking about Libya -- if at that Arav conference a few months back Quedaffy caught wind of a plan to use nukes in the US -- why then he would be smart to skee-daddle away, lest Tripoli and other inhabited parts of Libya be turned to glass.
Sounds very reasonable. Was that the conference where someone (al Douri?) cursed someone's (a Kuwaiti) mustache?

I missed Bloomberg's press conference I thought Bloomberg took on a very serious tone compared to other press conferences he's given. Also noticed that Commissioner Kelly had a very worried look on his face.
To: oceanview
at some point there are enough tips that come through from various sources.
And all find there way to FR -g-
