My empty post should have read:

It may have been in the 9/11 report but I remember hearing this in a documentary at least 6 months ago.

There is a serious need for oversight of all shipping containers by some entity that is on our side...until they are really searched we are vulnerable
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Over a year ago before TM I got hung up on a thread about the steel industry and what was being shipped to the US at the cost of American good job's and steel of lesser quality. It was unbelievable all the ships coming and going. And all of them by foriegn countries and most Saudi Arabia. So many times I wish I had saved those websites. I don't know how there is anyway to search these containers. There are thousand's a day.

Thanks. Do you recall if there was a specific date in mind for the earlier attack?

[HipShot]

Thanks for the date. I should read everything before I post questions, huh. :)

[DAVEY CROCKETT]

I am on both site's go there everyday no virus or emails. Have been doing it for a long time.

Maybe you don't want people to go to those site's. You can only get a virus by something downloaded or open e-mail.

This is the second time you have said this we have all taken note Thank you for your concern. Now let us go back to terrorist.

>> I doubt you'll get a response from SP2BF <<

Still, I had to try. What a shame. Don't know the details other than there was some kind of flame war. Don't want to know the details.

Damn. She was a great asset to the thread too.

Well, thanks for the info. Stay safe over there! Many of the threats indicate you may be closer to the first hit than we are, but my thinking is they'll hit whatever they can whenever they can. In other words, the threats may be disinformation.

Found a link for the Ricin story

Yes I think that can happen. I get an e-mail from the navy everyday and someone hijacked them not to long ago. Sending idiot e-mails and if anyone replied it went to all on the e-mail list.

[DAVEY CROCKETT]

It truly has been for a while now. Except those trying to make news.

When I read this article it brought to mind that Red Cross or Homeland Security (can't remember which agency) that had advertised for more help in specific areas of the country. We talked about this a few threads back.

Cedar Rapids, Iowa which is on the "volunteers wanted" list, is only 61 miles from Cedar Falls.

Cedar Rapids was the city that had the 1st mosque in the United States, back at the turn of the century. Also was the 1st exclusive Muslim Burial ground in the United States.

For some reason, finding these Islamic terrorists in Cedar Falls just isn't surprising me.

JG, you probably already made this connection but I'm reading from back aways in the thread.

Anything more about the device in Philly? The timing with the plane crash in Ill. has me a bit worried.

Probably nothing, but ....

If you figure out a way to read everything....please let me know! LOL

[ghostship]

No DAVEY CROCKETT, I said it once, and then apologized for saying it in response to YOUR post. You are the one repeating yourself. I dropped it a long time ago.

[all4one]

Good catch KS....

I heard a talk radio program this morning that mentioned Islamic Al-Quada types who are coming over our southern border with new Mexican names and birth papers.

They are setting up shop in small towns as white collar businesspeople, doctors, accountants, etc.

I need to further research a transcript from this radio program, but it was info. from a Republican Texas congressman and a U.S. Disrict Attorney from Texas. Will ping you when I complete my research.

SADDAM'S 'STROKE'

Jul 28 2004


Ex-dictator's lawyer says he had brain scan and could die

Exclusive By Gary Jones In Amman, Jordan


SADDAM Hussein has suffered a minor stroke and could die before his trial, his defence lawyers claim.

The multinational legal team is still awaiting permission to visit the deposed Iraqi ruler.

A letter demanding their doctor be given access to the former dictator was yesterday sent by Jordanian lawyer Mohammed al-Rashdan to Salem Chalebi, the head of the Iraqi prosecuting authorities.

Mr al-Rashdan said: "Our information is that he's in very poor health. We understand from the International Committee of the Red Cross that our client has had a brain scan to discover how badly he has been affected by the stroke. We believe he could die because of his health problems.

"We also think an attempt may be made on his life.

"We're very worried that we won't have a client to defend." He added: "Under the Geneva Convention we're entitled to have access to our client. But all our requests have been ignored."

In a form letter delivered by the Red Cross in January to his wife Sajida, living in Qatar, Saddam put a cross in boxes for "good health" and "slightly wounded".

"His finger appears to have been wounded, possibly by gunshot, when he was captured," said Mr Rashdan. "But we believe his health has deteriorated.

"We believe any trial could be months, if not years away - I think Bush and Blair would be happier if he died from ill health."

I've been away so I'm not sure if this is one of those "sore subjects" but, did you all determine what city this could be?
