Was it rumor or true that Clinton sold those codes?
AND, would that have left a vulnerability despite patches since?
Posturing? Re-Positioning? Going on all over when you think about it.
If there is a threat percieved, the ships would be sent to sea. They can survive better at sea than they can tied up to a pier in port.
I was wondering about that also. It makes sense to get the carriers and high value capital ships out to sea if something is percieved or pending so they survive to protect the country.
Adorable piggie, JP! LOL!
The house arrest could be from his own group. One of the guys arrested in Jordan with the truck bombs to kill 80,000 people said he was unable to leave the house where they were putting the explosive/chem bombs together because the terrorist group did not want anyone leaking or slipping up or giving any clues about what they were doing.
Let's adopt that cute doggie as our dog mascot for the Matrix Thread So far, we have Granny's kitties, JP's pic of a piggie and now your pic of a doggie. Kind of like a Noah's Ark for the Matrix.
Ok, watch your back there.
I am five miles from the Mall of America. I e-mailed Jill last night with this person's cell phone number and am still waiting to hear from her. In the meantime, my sister, who also lives near me, called the police and they told her it was an urgent matter. She was to give them my information, but I have not yet heard from her. I will update ASAP.

No, her friend is... and that is who he was seeing. Why?

New Jersey is top terror target, U.S. lawman says

The FBI has identified the stretch between Port Newark and Newark Liberty International Airport as the most dangerous two miles in the United States when it comes to terrorism, New Jersey's chief federal law-enforcement official said yesterday.
U.S. Attorney Christopher J. Christie sounded that urgent note at a gathering of law-enforcement officers and others in Monroe.
"If a terrorist were to set off a radiological, nuclear or biological device in those two miles, all rail traffic between the northern part of the United States and the southern part of the United States would stop," Christie said at the annual awards ceremony of the 200 Club of Middlesex County. "The second-largest seaport in America would cease to operate. The third-busiest airport in America would cease to operate. The chemical refineries in that area would be subject to great danger. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands if not millions of people who would be downwind if that were to occur.
"We live in the crosshairs," Christie said. "All of you have to be soldiers in the war on terrorism."
He called the coming months "a summer of great challenge for law enforcement."
Christie echoed comments made this week by U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft about the prospects of an attack this summer during which several large-scale events are scheduled, such as the Republican convention in New York City.
The Associated Press reported yesterday, however, that a senior Bush administration official said there is no new information about threats against the United States. That same unnamed official questioned whether Ashcroft's comments were politically motivated, the AP reported.

Always.
You should get off the computer and call 911! YOU need to talk to the police with your daughter and her friend as soon as possible!
May 27, 2004 — Police want to know why neighborhood kids have been playing with an anti-tank grenade launcher in the 25-hundred block of North 18th Street in North Philadelphia.
It is the modified grenade launcher, a 1.8 millimeter anti-tank weapon found on a North Philadelphia Street late last night by a child. It's in police hands now but it was apparently a neighborhood play toy and curiosity for several days before the parent of a 12-year-old found it and brought it home.
The so-called bazooka was the talk of the 2500 block of North 18th Street today, but no one is sure where the rocket launcher came from.
A portion of the scope was found this afternoon. One parent says she first discovered the weapon around the corner on Cumberland Avenue several days ago.
Police say this anti-tank weapon had been rendered inoperable. It was probably purchased at a gun show to be kept as a collectible but they are not amused by its presence on a public street in a densely populated neighborhood.
I don't think so... at least not based on the "Horror Movie" song. The Skyhooks were a popular Australian band in the 70's. My aunt sent me one of their albums when I was a teenager... in fact, it had this song on it.
They are hardly what I would call a demonic heavy metal band. They had a TV show in Austrailia and are more of a glam-rock type band. Kind of a cross between Adam Ant and the Monkees.
I would suspect EOM has some connection to Australia or possibly Britain, and is much older than Gadahn. The Skyhooks were almost unknown except in those countries and became ancient history long before he was born.
To counter that AP report in my pevious post, here is one reason why the administration is concerned about this summer which is NOT politically motivated.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The concern among Administration higher-ups about a major attack seems all too real. For weeks, Washington officials have been discussing among themselves the increased level of "chatter" being intercepted by the National Security Agency [NSA]. From a military base outside of Washington and from listening posts all over the world, the NSA uses supercomputers to monitor overseas phone and Internet traffic. The last time the NSA raised the chatter alarm was during the summer of 2001.
The term chatter refers to intercepted conversations, many in Arabic, that seem to be in code, such as "the package is almost ready for delivery," but which refer to planning for an attack, according to intelligence officials. "This disturbing intelligence indicates [that] al Qaeda's specific intention is to hit the U.S. hard," said Ashcroft

No, you are not giving them to much credit. They can track it. Where they drop the ball is when they don't put the story out there, for the public to see/hear.
Thanks for posting that article. It certainly is true. In that two mile stretch you have Newark Airport running parallel with the Jersey Turnpike and the Elizabeth Shipping ports and the northeast corridor rails.
