"The threat we face is not conventional

We know for certain some attacks have been averted. Sooner or later some sort of attack will make it through despite all efforts to avert it. As of February 25th, investigation was still ongoing concerning the toxin that killed those 275 elk on 20 square miles near Rawlins, Wyoming.

When we find them, they are lying down on the ground, but they can’t get up, almost like they are paralyzed in their lower extremities.”

The first dead elk were found February 8th. To date no toxin analysis has been made public that I could locate. Could that happen to any of us in any city across the country? You betcha it could! It doesn't have to be a nuclear device to provide the terrorists with the result they want.

And since the Elk were dying in a wilderness area...and I still remember the jihad's post about "bride and groom"...there is a BRIDAL VEIL FALLS IN YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK. Plus we have heard how they plan to use the remoteness of such areas [Nat PArks] for cover already in the news here on FR in at least one thread.

The elk: I was reading somewhere that the ones that fell ill were allmost all females and their young. The article went on to say that the female elk graze on different land than the males, so they were going to try to analyze that factor. Sure sounds troubling to me.
