SANAA, Yemen, Jan. 24 (UPI) -- A purported statement by al-Qaida in Yemen warned Saturday of a "major strike" soon in the United States.

The statement, distributed by the Yemeni Tagamoo Party for Reforms, said: "A major strike, a big event will take place in America soon," reminiscent of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Yes that was an eye opener. I posted that article to this thread yesterday. See my post #2757

Putin Laments Death of the Soviet Union

I have had something knawing on me for some time, and finally I found a letter on Steve Quayles site that backed it up.

Apparently a nuclear weapons type posted this to his site in email, and he archived it in his files. The site link is below.

I am going to post it here, and then explain what I see that validates it.

In the early 90's we had a pretty good handle on how many weapons were possessed by our enemies and where they were located.

We literally have a priority list that associates our inventory with targets in their inventory. No so anymore.

God only knows how many new nuclear weapons have been produced by Pakistan, India, China and Iran. Not to mention the Russian inventory sold to the highest bidders as their military and scientists went unpaid.

We are in deep sh**.

Clinton gutted our CIA and NSA budgets. Much of our human intelligence was exposed by internal enemies. That takes time to recover. We probably won't get it back in time to avert a nuke attack on U.S. soil.

from a nuclear weapons specialist.

____________________________________________________________

The last paragraph states "much of our human intelligence was exposed by internal enemies". Sent a chill down my spine.

Suppose, as Sean indicated, there are numbers of "internal enemies" in positions of authority who are knowingly undermining our security and hoping for something catastrophic in order to seize power and install a totalitarian type government?

Sounds stupid, but I see occasional indicators of this in my field of work, and it makes me wonder sometimes.

I went in there once. I was chasing a poster from here. While I was there, I saw a bunch of posters copying and pasting stuff Freepers were posting from here to there and just picking on them.

Nasty place.

( Ok..Ok....I have plenty of Tinfoil...I'm putting it on as I finish this)

No need for tin foil jm. Just take a look around what use to be our cozy little nest named the United States of America. There is a movement that has been going on for some time. Prayer taken out of the schools, and other gatherings. Individuals trying to have the pledge of allegiance taken out of the schools. Attempts for the word Christmas to be changed, and I can go on and on and on.

Nope no need for tin foil.

[swarthyguy]

This volcano stuff.

Could they be nutty enough to organize an operation to burn the Saudi fields/refineries/pumping stations.

Would they take that level selfhurt in order to destroy the global structure.

Obviously the threat calendar has moved beyond feb 21 or whatever.

"Re: Illusions, delusions, confusions

and real nuclear weapons on US soil.

Please, sit down, relax yourself and calmly read what follows as best you can. When you finish
reading this post you will realize that your calmness evaporated at the end of this sentence.

I have come across some information which is a current day reiteration of what Lunev has said
occurred in the past...that tactical nuclear weapons were stashed in the Hudson and
Shenandoah Valley for rapid deployment by Spetznaz sleepers.

This new information began to develop in my conversations with an individual who was a team
member in US and NATO nuclear planning. Prior to 1993 we had accurate information on the
particulars of enemy warheads, ie: how many warheads they had and where they were
located. A priority list for targeting purposes was maintained by associating our own inventory
with the enemy inventory.

I am told that this is no longer the case.

During the Clinton administration our intelligence agencies were gutted by the disemboweling
of their budgets. They were nearly bled to death. Additionally much of our HUMINT assets
were compromised or otherwise exposed by internal enemies. They were betrayed by
elements within our own government.

Now we know why 9/11 happened.

The arrival of the Bush Administration in 2001 revived the intelligence community, but the
recovery will take time, and according to the opinion of my source those capabilities will
probably not recover enough to prevent a nuclear attack on US soil.

I passed this info on to the NEIN Director. Subsequent to that I was then contacted by
another person who I have great respect for, who's credibility is 100% and who has top-notch
contacts in the US government and the US military.

He informed me that he has been told personally that there are about 40 tactical nuclear
weapons currently in or around major US cities, with roughly a handful in each location. US
Nest and other nuclear search teams have been engaged full time in the search for these
devices. I have no information of the mission success or lack thereof in the search.

In light of this information there are signs and indications that the US government has prepared
for the worst case scenario. The proof of this is everywhere, just look around you."

and food system against terrorist attacks, major disasters, and other
emergencies.

Background

(2) The United States agriculture and food systems are vulnerable to
disease, pest, or poisonous agents that occur naturally, are unintentionally
introduced, or are intentionally delivered by acts of terrorism. Americas
agriculture and food system is an extensive, open, interconnected, diverse,
and complex structure providing potential targets for terrorist attacks. We
should provide the best protection possible against a successful attack on
the United States agriculture and food system, which could have catastrophic
health and economic effects.

Definitions

(3) In this directive:

(a) The term critical infrastructure has the meaning given to that term in
section 1016(e) of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (42 U.S.C. 5195c(e)).

(b) The term key resources has the meaning given that term in section 2(9)
of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. 101(9)).

(c) The term Federal departments and agencies means those executive
departments enumerated in 5 U.S.C. 101, and the Department of Homeland
Security; indepen-dent establishments as defined by 5 U.S.C. 104(1);

the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, and the heads of
other appropriate Federal departments and agencies shall build upon and
expand current monitoring and surveillance programs to:

(a) develop robust, comprehensive, and fully coordinated surveillance and
monitoring systems, including international information, for animal disease,
plant disease, wildlife disease, food, public health, and water quality that
provides early detection and awareness of disease, pest, or poisonous
agents;

(b) develop systems that, as appropriate, track specific animals and plants,
as well as specific commodities and food; and

(c) develop nationwide laboratory networks for food, veterinary, plant
health, and water quality that integrate existing Federal and State
laboratory resources, are interconnected, and utilize standardized
diagnostic protocols and procedures.

(9) The Attorney General, the Secretary of Homeland Security, and the
Director of Central Intelligence, in coordination with the Secretaries of
Agriculture, Health and Human Services, and the Administrator of the
Environmental Protection Agency, shall develop and enhance intelligence
operations and analysis capabilities focusing on the agriculture, food, and

to universities for interdisciplinary degree programs that combine training
in food sciences, agriculture sciences, medicine, veterinary medicine,
epidemiology, microbiology, chemistry, engineering, and mathematics
(statistical modeling) to prepare food defense professionals.

(22) The Secretaries of Agriculture, Health and Human Services, and Homeland
Security shall establish opportunities for professional development and
specialized training in agriculture and food protection, such as
internships, fellowships, and other post-graduate opportunities that provide
for homeland security professional workforce needs.

Research and Development

His chronic references to American women really aggravate me.

What can we expect from a breed of men who pre-9/11 sat in topless bars and visited prostitutes, and wouldn't know an American woman and American family life if it slapped them in the head and shattered their teeth. Their posts indicate that their "God" rewards them for creating terror, pain, suffering, misery, and total destruction of anyone who does not share their beliefs, including the lives of many innocent Muslims. Their posts also indicate their sole purpose in life is hatred and destruction. They have no clue that we have loving, supportive families, patriotism for our country and those who serve in it's name, and find their hatred of us very sad, pathetic and beyond logic.
