>>>The warning follows an analysis by the FBI (news - web sites) and the Homeland Security Department of the siege that killed nearly 340 people, many of them students, in the city of Beslan last month.

Yes, disguised as or working as construction workers.

The activities of the terrorists may not appear to be suspicious to a casual observer. And ordinary activities may appear to be suspicious when observed with great scrutiny. Recall the Hitchcock film, "Rear Window."

This alert should serve only as a reminder to those who have been charged with the responsibility of protecting school children. Communication, physical barriers, and observation are each only part of any thoughtful school security plan.

>>>>_ Prolonged "static surveillance" by people disguised as panhandlers, shoe shiners, newspaper or flower vendors or street sweepers not previously seen in the area

How about a Fruit Vendor?

I wanted to make a pun about "being more sensitive", but this is too real.

Suppose there were any illegal aliens working on that school construction project?

This alert is definitely giving us something to go on. What did you think about that strange car explosion that happened not too far from the Lincoln Tunnel? I've been checking for updates for a name ID.

FWIW,

There was a construction project going on at the WTC before the 9/11 incident also.

In the thread I just posted on Weehawken, Old Sarge said the guy had no ID.

We home school. Every time we read something about the government schools, the more we know we've made the right decision. Our kids are safe from both demonic liberals and Islamofacists.
They're right here with me now. They're safe, sound, and loved.

Hello,

If you mean the construction project at my son's school, I suppose it is possible. I really don't know, other than to say the company that is doing the project is a very well known and well respected firm.

Glad to be here, MOgirl

Reminded of a number of aliens either were working at or wanted to work the Texas firm that was produced MRE food packs for our Armed Forces.

We are going to see middle schoolers in body bags before we even discuss CCW in the schools.

Government schools kill the mind, spirit and soon the bodies of American children.

"The horror of this attack may have created significant anxiety in our own country among parents, students, faculty staff and other community members," Deputy Education Secretary Eugene Hickok said in a letter to schools and education groups.

Glad to be homeschooling. I pity parents who don't have the means to get their children out.

What explosion by the Lincoln Tunnel? Which side? I will be using the tunnel later today.

Hello,

Thanks, I had forgotten that, and I do believe that it is an aspect to the terrorists' MO that we need to keep an eye on. How to protect against this threat is a question that is "above my pay grade", as it is a difficult problem.

Glad to be here, MOgirl
