It also means the Fallujah operation scared the jabber out of them. :-)
Maybe Terror Central had a large component in Aceh.
"Ridge offered no single explanation for the drop, saying it could be stepped-up U.S. efforts to boost security, increase military action, disrupt terrorist leaders and their finances or, simply, the "hardening of America.""
They drowned in the tsunami. Our God drowned them. HA!
Hopefully, you're correct. But it could ALSO mean they've moved to more secure means of communications. . .
I forget, what happened this time a year ago, that the Terrorists were all a twitter about?
I mean besides us taking Iraq?
What were they planning... I can't remember much except the
Spain bombing.
Were they playing us then, or are they playing us now?
Where's my tinfoil hat?....
Always vigilant, Always prepared, and Always Faithful!!
Dead men may vote, but they tend not to chatter.
Wasn't there a claim that the amount of chatter decreased just before 9/11?
PING

Admin Mod - can you consolidate these threads? I don't care which is which. It's the same article. My only contribution is the link to an earlier thread on the same subject.
Wolf! Wolf! Wolf!
Maybe instead of just listening to them "chatter" we have actually started shooting them instead.
They are getting the message that mass murder does not pay.
I think this means they are done with the planning stages, now they are going into operation mode.
This does NOT make me feel safer.
the Soviets transmit 24/7/365 on their most important channels/frequencies so we can never see patterns or spikes in their transmissions or watch alerts go up and down their fire chains or go secure radio silent before an event. they x-mit junk whenever it's not being used to send flash traffic just to keep the lines busy.
Well, keep in mind, they typically get quiet suddenly just prior to an attack.
However, the sudden quietness follows a period of really intense "chatter," which I do not believe was occurring prior to this quieting down.
Therefore, I think it is more likely this is GOOD news....that they are giving up for now to lay low for awhile.
However, I am not a CIA analyst, so what the heck do I know.
I wouldn't get too excited, just yet. Unfortunately, these weasels are resilient and still have supporters.
I'm not reading too much into it, personally.
And the reelection of President Bush......
Okay....
I think we are winning, but the lull in the chatter may not be as a result of that.
I recall reading, that in July 2001 they had a lot of chatter, than it all died down, then we had the attack in September.
I think the lull may just be to throw us off the track.
Stay vigilant.
