"Just watch the DumbAsCraps say that this is a four year old story"

Well they might not say this if they think they might be in danger.

Let's see if Daschle and Leahy are on the list...

I very much doubt it, although the terrorist have, at times, been known to kill their own.

This should be interesting. Look for the Gertz story on the Wash Times website not too long from now.

This fits in with earlier info:

NSC Source: Terror Attack to Be in Early September

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1184073/posts

"an Al Qaeda operative has told British intelligence that the groups target date is early September, intelligence sources said yesterday.

The operative, described as credible by British intelligence, told his debriefers that the attack would take place '60 days before the US presidential election' on November 2, according to a former National Security Council official.

On September 2 President Bush is expected to address the Republican National Convention at Madison Square Garden."

If they want to influence the election, they would kill a dem, a likable dem.

The last likeable dem was already killed, on Nov 22, 1963.

Well, this is what they did before 9/11 with the Afgan resistance leader. I would imagine that the convention at the end of the month would give a target-rich environment for any terrorist.

I've always worried for W's safety, but this has the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end. =(

"Hmmm. If they want to influence the election, they would kill a dem, a likable dem."


Well, that narrows it down to Zell Miller and Ed Koch.

Seriously, could mean leaders in Iraq and Pakistan, too.

Could be a foreign leader, Blair or Australian PM. Possible eastern european leader. Putin could be targeted because of Chechen campaign.

It was an obscure Anthrax case comment.

Anyway, I argue with some that AQ only goes after "mass casualties." Not true, they attack significant leaders also. Musharraf two or three times.
