Seriously now, I do not think you should be banned nor insulted for noting that "Hispanic people have a tremendous resemblance to Middle Eastern and North African people". That was a truthful comment, and one that no one should have taken as being racist in any way, shape or manner. Sometimes political correctness can be such a pain in the behind when trying to get a point across. In all honesty, I probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between those groups of people myself. It's not that I'm racist, it's just that the eyes can only take in so much. :)

I copied and pasted the names : )

My son in law's family is from India. He's mistaken for Hispanic and Sicilian, and has a back East accent, not to mention his build is on the smaller side of Refrigerator Perry. When he and my daughter are out, they occasionally get hard looks from Hispanics, speaking of racism.

No, it is very difficult to tell people apart, and before we had 9/11, who cared? Now we need to be more vigilant. That's not being a racist, it's covering your rear end.

If we did not have this report, we in Fairfax, VA would hear just the silence.

I don't believe Americans have that much of a narrow, herd mentality, that if a homicide bomber blew himself up at a football game, they'd avoid only football games and think they were safe everywhere else. This type of terrorist act could kill as many at a restaurant, movie theater, mall, or any other crowded venue.
This is what makes it such an effective terrorism strategy: it can happen anywhere, seemingly random places, and is very difficult to stop. I remain stunned that it hasn't already occurred a dozen times over.
Randomness = instilling terror. Guard one venue, the target will become another.

ANYONE who was old enought to witness the Oklahoma City bombing, the first World Trade Center Bombing, 911,the Bali bombings, the bombings in Spain, the British bombings ...and manages to catch the news of the world fairly regularly knows that there is no place completely secure...but who wants to cower in a corner?

My son in law got on a plane soon after the flights resumed after 911..His job requires it..

If my family had tickets to the OU/Texas game ..I would not tell them to reconsider going...even knowing what I know ..

The threat is always there...The Brits climbed back on the trains and the buses..I will not let the the terrorists terrorize me. That is what they want to do..

What we've known all along, "Ping"...

I hope they are all over the other "five" here like white on rice...

They certainly don;t want anyone to git skeered going to a ballgame now...

Thats why this is being downplayed, and generally ignored by MSM...But you really have to wonder why...This is big ratings producing news??? This story, if run, could sell a lot of Mach 3 razors???

Geesh, doesn't anybody understand the economic boom this could bring to this country???

I believe they even got to Drudge, and very early on.

Was he going to set off the bomb by remote control? Maybe his handlers saw his return to the bench and lit him off because they thought he had cold feet.

[fanfan]

Thanks for the ping Judy.

I will be reading through this thread today. Any word on MSM picking this up yet?

[AppyPappy]

Is there anyway that someone "in the know" can summarize the information we now have?

[weef]

Remember all the train derailments that have happened since then?

Don't forget about the numerous bus incidents right after 9/11 - those were kept very quiet as well.

"Finally, the neighbors were sufficiently suspicious to even wonder , "what do they do in there?". Normally, one doesn't think too much about neighbors unless something is unusual about their appearance, demeanor or behavior."

That's true enough. We've had neighbors like that and it's usually drugs or sex. What makes you suspicious is a lot of traffic at really odd hours. Small groups of people who come and go for short amounts of time. Appearance of the visitors and the type of vehicles they drive, whether it's not appropriate for the class of people. Odd noises coming from the place. Sometimes even snatches of conversation (sound often travels better than most people realise based on what I've overheard people saying)

My #1 source for news I can use.

These guys have been known to recruit lonely young men who are depressed and suicidal already. I read it around the time of the London bombings, one of the lonely young men came forward and said that was what happened with him, but he instead went to the authorities instead of blowing himself up for Allah.

[TheSpottedOwl]

Who Else is Sick, Tired and Not Taking It Anymore from the MSM?

I think most of us here. Thanks to them, and government officials, we're all sitting ducks! Sooner or later the lid is going to blow off, pardon the pun, and the thing that these clowns fear most is going to happen. Americans taking things into their own hands.

I'm a smaller blogger then Malkin, but Glenn Reynolds has linked to me several times before. Is there a good summary of everything that has been discovered thus far that you can point me at? After I get a post up I'll beg Instapudit to take a look. No promises of course, but you never know.
