For California FReepers, note that some of the suspects were arrested in Los Angeles. I worry that we on the West Coast have become complacent about the possibility of terrorism here, thinking that the East Coast is the prime target.

Don't forget Al Qaeda planned on blowing up part of LAX during the millennium celebrations and that 9/11 was originally planned as a two-part assault on both sides of the country.

sounds like some of them were street thugs who watched Scarface too many times and were caught trying to act "big time".

But LA didn't vote for Bush, right? So according to Osama, you should be just fine /s

San Francisco was a major Al Qaeda target in the Bojinka plot initiated in the Philippines.

Where are all the FReepers who insisted non-Muslim terrorists could never ally with Muslim terrorists? While some of the arrestees might very well be Muslim, I'll bet not all of them are.

I agree. I think we here in CA think like teenagers.....It won't happen to us. Was surprised to hear that Armenians were involved. Being 1/2 Armenian, my grandparents had a hard life because of the Genocide. You'd think they would know better. They should have remembered their herritage!

The Blue states are the real targets alright!! They will be staging their equipment there, with the help of some Kerry supports no doubt! Then they will turn on them when they have served their purpose. The Rot from within continues to grow.

I agree .. They ignore it even though in some of the terrorist plans found in Iraq - Los Angeles was always included in places to stage attacks.

Did I say that ..?? Did I even imply that ..??

But .. at least with the Patriot Act we are now able to ARREST SOME OF THIS ROT!!

AND .. HOW MANY LIVES WERE SAVED TODAY ..?? IT COULD HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS or HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS.

I haven't forgotten, but I think most of the 30,000,000 or so Californians have -- if they ever knew about it in the firt place.
