Two schools of thought here

1. Tell all you can so we all can stop the terrorists, i.e. maybe a citizen spots them, All hands on deck approach.

2. Don't tell anything and hope you catch them in time. Don't tip them off to what we know approach.

I vote for #1. Dot connecting is hard before you know what is going to happen. Easy afterwards.

" Don't tell anything and hope you catch them in time"

there is one theory out there that says this is exactly what happened at Oklahoma city.....that somebody was supposed to stop it before any actual damage was done..

and we all know what happened there....

#3: Keep them too busy running away to engage in any offensive moves. Deport all non-citizen Muslims immediately and let their own diseased cultures deal with them. Let the US-citizen Muslims know that if anything further happens, it's straight to the internment camps for them, where we will provide a standard of living commensurate with their lands of origin.

1. Tell all you can so we all can stop the terrorists, i.e. maybe a citizen spots them, All hands on deck approach.

Also, letting them know that we know and that we're prepared may make them drop these plans. As someone who lives a few blocks from the NYSE and survived 9/11, I prefer this to waiting and giving them more of an opportunity to blow us up again.
