How many non-existent upcoming attacks has Gertz hyped?
Bush leading in the polls may whip them into a frenzy...more than they are now.
OH S****
I wonder might be true to this story can you imagine this happen everybody know good possibity Dubya going get another gig in People Crib
I'm wondering if it's not going to be sooner.
IIRC, the "trigger" for the September 11, 2001 attacks was the assasination of Massood.
Given today's assasination of the Sheite clerics in Iraq (probably to ferment a civil war), I wonder if there isn't going to be more coming very soon.

If the polls are close they will avoid attacking the U.S. directly because they know this will cause the public rally around the President, instead they will increase attack abroad and in particular in Iraq in an effort to sway the election in their favor (i.e. getting Kerry elected.) If it becomes clear that President Bush will win re-election then there will be a greater chance of an attack here in the U.S.
If Kerry looks like a winner than al-Qaeda would logically hold off until after the election. With Bush now looking like the winner, the same logic says go to plan B and attack the U.S. and hope it will have a positive effect for Kerry.
Inauguration Day is an obvious target for reasons I won't list here, we all know. I can imagine that security in Washington on that day will be tight beyond description.
This is exactly what John Kerry is hoping and praying for - and all the scumbags in the Kerry camp.
Pak unearths 9/11 style al Qaeda memo (planning attack on US with WMD in near future)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1220142/posts
ISLAMABAD/WASHINGTON: Pakistani authorities have reportedly discovered an al Qaeda memo that warns of suicide attackers using weapons of mass destruction on Americans in t he near future.
According to the Daily Times , Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin , an online subscription intelligence news service, says that these attacks will include the use of biological and chemical weapons, and that Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf, under heavy US pressure, has instructed his security and intelligence chiefs to focus on jihadi suicide volunteers because of this emerging threat.
Topping the memo's list stands the US, although European countries are also specified as preferred targets, says the report.
Gertz's new book "treachery" is a good read.
Come on, just how much does Gertz expect us to believe. Geez!
PING
Developing...
We need to hinder their development. Spitballs won't do it.
Nothing against Gertz and it's good to know what's going on .. but he scares me every time he reports on something
