"I don't know this area of Chicago. Is it business or residential? I can't see a 10:00 p.m. attack if the goal is to cause maximum casulties. 10:00 a.m., but not 10:00 p.m."
I don't know the Chicago area that well either. It said "near downtown", close enough. The suitcase shielding from x-rays would suggest a certain weapon. I don't think that type of weapon cares what time of the day it is.
I don't know if AQ has got "them" or not. I'm leaning towards not. That said, if they use conventional weapons, timing would be important and 10 AM would be more logical.
I find the shielding part interesting, wonder if it's true, that would be intense to try and disarm, man! Thanks for pointing it out.
This is a Devastatingly effective yet low profile non-lethal force tool for personal protection! Your are bidding on a Kelly Worden Impact Kerambit. As today's society becomes increasingly violent and its criminals increasingly ruthless, unarmed self-defense methods are no longer enough to guarantee your personal safety. If you want to even the odds on today's streets, you need to be armed. Unfortunately, law-abiding citizens are caught in a tangled web of laws that prevents them from carrying most weapons that they could use to defend themselves. What is needed is a weapon that is devastatingly effective, yet low profile. Thanks to Kelly S. Worden, now such a weapon exists. It's called the "DTL Impact Kerambit", short for Destroy, Trap, Lock defense system. At first glance, most people have no idea what the DTL Impact Kerambit actually is. Consisting simply of a small L-shaped piece of plastic with an integral ring at the top, it looks more like an unusual tool than a weapon. That's exactly what you want them and your potential attackers to think. But once you slip your index finger through the ring and grasp the body of the DTL Impact Kerambit, you have a fistful of dynamite! The ring and the tip of the L-shaped section are scientifically designed to put your wrist at its strongest natural angle. In this position, a normal punch becomes a bone-crushing, two-pronged attack. You can strike with full force against any part of your attacker's body (even solid bone) without fear of hurting your knuckles or spraining your wrist.... DISABLE YOUR ATTACKER With hammer-like blows, the bottom edge of the DTL Impact Kerambit comes into play, smashing anything that comes into its path, again, with no fear of injury to your hand. The bottom edge of the DTL is also the ideal blocking tool, enabling you to instantly stop full-power blows and even kicks, in the process disabling your attacker limb by limb until he give up the fight. DEVASTATINGLY EFFECTIVE Unlike most hand-held self-defense items like yawara sticks and kubotans, the finger ring of the DTL Impact Kerambit allows you to open your hand to grab, pull, and control your attacker without losing your grip on the weapon. By grabbing a handful of flesh and squeezing it between your fingers and edge of the DTL, you can also create a pincher-like lock that will bring even the biggest attacker to his knees. Constructed of virtually indestructible plastic and weighing only ounces, the DTL Impact Kerambit is the ideal weapon for defense-minded men and women, security guards, law enforcement officers and anyone else who needs a low-profile but highly potent defensive tool. On today's streets, you cannot afford to be without on. CONCLUSION Incorporation of the DTL Impact Kerambit into any training program that utilizes punches, grabs, chokes, nerve attacks, etc. will serve to enhance that program. The DTL only serves to enhance the natural weapons that are normally used. Use of the DTL during Arnis, Kali, Defensive Tactics, or any other martial arts training is just a matter of adding another tool. The muscle memory is already there waiting to be taken advantage of and used. Introduction of the DTL and training program for police and security officers will give those officers an effective and easily mastered non-lethal tool to use in a variety of situations. The responses that I have recieved from buyers has been very positive due to its ease of use, innovative design, and effectiveness as a self defense tool. I guarantee that this is one of the most effective defensive weapons you will ever buy. If you are not satisfied, I will give you a full refund. Please Note: I have available the 62 page training manual with step by step pictures & instructions developed by Mr. Kelly Worden on techniques for using the Impact Kerambit effectively. If you are the winning bidder, I can ship it for an additional $10 plus $1 shipping & Handling. Please email me after your winning bid if you are interested, and I will include it with your item with the shipping discount. I also offer additional Impact Kerambits at a discounted price. Please email me for details.
Bonus: Heart Attack Self Defense Keychain! I can include as a bonus the Heart Attack Self Defense Keychain: Remember how the self defense experts used to tell you to place your keys between your fingers and punch? Now there is something much better and more effective. Carry the Heart Attack Self Defense Tool on your key chain and be ready to protect yourself anytime. The Heart Attack is small (3.5 inches long), lightweight, and made of tough sharp plastic. Hold it between your fingers and punch! This sharp unbreakable plastic defensive tool will devastate and disable your attacker instantly! Easily carried in the pocket. Money back Guarantee if not fully satisfied!! I am offering the Heart Attack for an additional $3, with no additional S&H if purchased with the Impact Kerambit. Please email me at the end of the auction if interested. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5512006093&category=3204
It couldn't, I don't think.. Old contruction [high quality]. A church, and a historic one at that. Churches being hit in Iraq..A heightened terror alert..Coincidence? I don't think so...let's wait for the spin.
Here's a south Florida take on the weather: When you said "the storm is headed into Lake County Indiana" The only thought I had was that I'd never heard of a Hurricane there! We're deep into our season and it's starting to get active. That's a scenario: A major Hurricane like "Andrew" (one of the six I've been through) hits Miami, and then there's a terrorist attack right after!

Terror Group Threatening European Countries Backing Bush has Alleged U.S.Cyber Home on Hosting Anime;
Host for a Number of Well Known Terror Groups
Radical Islamics claiming affiliation to al Qaeda have again posted threats against the United Kingdom, Italy, Bulgaria and other European countries backing President George W Bush’s policy on Iraq.
According to Bulgaria’s Sofia News Agency (SFN), the statement from Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigades read in part, “We will urge our members in Italy, UK, Bulgaria and entire Europe to get ready for a new kind of battle. Be prepared to shed blood. We are launching a bloody and endless war.”
This is the third time that Islamic terrorists have threatened Bulgaria, SFN reported.
Last week the same group vowed a war on European countries, including Bulgaria. “We will not hesitate to shed blood in all parts of Europe, in Rome and other places, as long as countries move in the orbit of the pinnacle of unbelief, America,” SFN reported the statement said.
On July 21 an Islamic group named Tawhid, claiming to be al-Qaeda's European cell, threatened Bulgaria and Poland with bloodbaths unless they withdraw troops from Iraq.
Bulgaria is contributing a 485-strong light infantry unit to the international peacekeeping forces in the southern Iraqi town of Karbala, SFN reported. The troops are under Polish command.
Despite a deadly bomb attack on the Bulgarian base last December, and the death of two Bulgarian hostages, Bulgarian authorities have vowed they will not capitulate to the terrorist’s threats but stay the course in Iraq.
While it is was not immediately possible to determine whether the threatening message against Europe and other countries was posted on the group’s Hosting Anime web site, the group does have a presence there at www.hostinganime.com/abu-hafs.
Hosting Anime is an internet service provider that hosts a number of al Qaida and other terrorist web sites. It appears to operate by renting space on the servers of the Houston based Everyone's Internet (EV1), which has hosted sites in the past for groups such as the Hamas.
The radical sites hosted by Hosting Anime (and apparently EV1) include

Apparent parent host EV1 has not returned a number of e-mails seeking comment but did generate an automated response in the last few weeks which read in part, "We have received your report of possible abuse of our network resources. The current number of notifications that require investigations limits the number of personal responses from the staff to senders and this might be the only response you receive regarding your notification; however, we do investigate each report."
In addition, when asked a few weeks ago if EV1 administration would respond to an e-mail seeking answers about the company's continued relationship with Hosting Anime, a receptionist said, “If they're interested they will contact you. All we say is that they're unavailable and we can take a message.”
Writing on an SFN bulletin board recently (www.novinite.com/view_news.php?id=37501), internet terror researcher Johnathan Galt commented about EV1, "The (Hosting Anime) site is hosted at EV1.NET in Houston Texas. They host *MOST* (of) the latest murder videos and terrorist announcements. We need an international furor to force the U.S. Govt. to release all the details of these two companies. Why is the identity of the murderers and the people helping them kept secret? Important clues as to the identities of the murderers are held in the server logs of EV1. A court order is needed in order to force the companies to make them public."
An attorney for the U.S. Dept. of Justice’s Counter Terrorism Division asked that written research about Hosting Anime’s alleged activities be faxed to her.
In March, Aljaazeera reported ( http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/D2D48F79-B330-40E3-A17D-B4CDD01EE1A0.htm ) that Abu Hafs Brigades has been surfacing more and more recently.
It has claimed responsibility for several deadly attacks in Iraq since the fall of Baghdad last April. The brigades were named after the training commander of al-Qaida network and were founded after his death in 2001.
Abu
Abu Hafs
He was an Egyptian national, who was nicknamed al-Masri meaning 'the Egyptian' in Arabic, Al Jazeera reported.
Following the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington, American authorities put Abu Hafs’ name on top of the list of wanted people. He was one of the most wanted people in the US, dead or alive.
On 16 November 2001, a US air raid destroyed a house near Kabul reportedly sheltering Abu Hafs.
Al Jazeera reported that while news of Abu Hafs’ death was widely disputed inside and outside Afghanistan, it was confirmed three days later from Pakistan where the Taliban's Ambassador Abd Al-Salam Dhaif said “Abu Hafs al-Masri died from injuries he suffered after US warplanes bombed his house near Kabul.”
But who was Abu Hafs al-Masri?
He was a core member of the Islamic Jihad group, which successfully carried out the assassination of the Egyptian president Anwar al-Sadat on 6 October 1981. He joined Osama bin Ladin in the early 1980s, Al Jazeera reported, when the two were fighting the Soviets in Afghanistan.
He also helped establish al-Qaida’s fundamental base, according to Al Jazeera. As a former Egyptian police officer, he was in charge of the group’s security.
Abu Hafs assumed control of the training camps after the former commander Abu Ubaida al-Banshiri was drowned in Victoria lake, Uganda, in 1996. His ties with Osama bin Ladin became stronger, Al Jazeera reported, when one of his daughters was married to one of bin Ladin's sons.
Abu Haf was associated with many deadly attacks in worldwide, Al Jazeera reported.
While al Qaida was based in Sudan in 1992-1993, Abu Hafs allegedly took part in attacks on American forces operating under the international military force in Somalia (Operation Restore Hope).
In 1997, Al Jazeera reported it was said he and another top bin Ladin aide, Ayman al-Dhawahiri, orchestrated the killing of 58 tourists in al-Uxur, Egypt.
In 1999, the FBI announced evidence of Abu Hafs’ links to the bombing of the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, in which 250 people were killed. He was charged with killing US citizens.
Abu Hafs was also wanted, Al Jazeera reported, by a number of international security and intelligence agencies. An Egyptian court sentenced him to seven years in prison in absentia. The FBI put a five million dollar reward for information leading to his arrest.
Ten months before Abu Hafs al-Masri's death, Osama bin Ladin nominated him as his successor in the event of his death or arrest.
The nomination surprised many of bin Ladin's aides and inner circle, Al Jazeera reported. It was expected that bin Ladin's eldest son, Muhammad, would succeed his father in leading the controversial organization.
According to Al Jazeera, Abd Allah Azzam, the father of the Mujahideen in Afghanistan, was quoted by Arab fighters there as having expressed his annoyance at, “bin Ladin's favoritism towards Egyptian Muslim fundamentalists.”
I just happened on this page....
The image of George W. Bush addressing the Republican national convention on Sept. 2, just as a few more "iconic" American buildings go up in flames, is more fodder for the kneejerk scoffers, who see everything in terms of the election. But that date has significance other than in terms of American politics: September 2 is also the 106th anniversary of the Battle of Omdurman, which marked the triumph of the British in the Sudan over an army of Islamic fundamentalists known as Mahdists. It is an anniversary fraught with significance for Osama bin Laden and his followers worldwide: the history behind it illustrates both the nature of the threat we face and the inability of the U.S. to effectively confront it.

Best German accent: Nien, meine freund...
I was caught out in the storm but has anyone reported the breaking story about an hr or so ago regarding a cynlindrical device being found near south dowtown Chicago?!
Any idea why the steeple collapsed?
Device was in a wooden box, looking like for carpenter's tools
Was a cylinder like a centrifuge
evacuation for only 2 blocks
Bomb Squad in charge and conflicting reports of it was detonated because they are allowing no regular cops/media anywhere near it
Thank you Karl.
That story is too strange to brush off. He could have left the rocket laucher there for "someone" to pick up.
LOL! No hurricanes around here.
Maybe the hurricanes will blow the bad guys outta here. We can hope, right?
"I haven't heard of that type of thing being used before."(nwctwx)
Me either, and if it turns out to be true, especially if the liner was lead, I would take it as a taunt, and take it seriously.
I saw NoRad pills on Amazon! $10 for 20
This is a black area, many projects, some mosques, ME populated/residence and business...now I need to find the location of J Jackson and operation push
BTW it is 2 short blocks to the Kennedy expressaway
Wow, that's some storm. I had no idea. I've been keeping my eye on the hurricane off N.C. as that is where my Mom is. If the terrorists don't get us Mother Nature will.
Yes, post 674 here, and there was also a breaking news thread. Evidently, an "all clear" has been issued. What the heck happened, you ask? We don't know yet.
I want to know if they are fully suited and if DHS/FBI are on the scene?
