At least the Brits have the balls to raise the threat level. Here we would have to wait until after an attack before it was raised to red.

God be with MI5 tonight. And tomorrow.

Huge chills down my back, onyx. I have family in the UK right now. Not sure when they are supposed to be flying home, but not for a week I think. What a way for my ONE liberal relative to get a reality check. IYIYIYI

That just does NOT make sense to me, does it you?

If you get lost you STICK TOGETHER.

And how the hell do you end up in Minnesota.

Only the barest essentials - including passports and wallets - will be allowed to be carried on board in transparent plastic bags.

Imagine all the expensive gadgets that will be stolen out of, er, safely placed in the checked baggage.

Yes, they are talking about this latest breaking news, along with terrorism and those missing Egypt students.

I never heard of the show before. I'm listening and trying to be here too.

All because we admit middle easterners. We need politicians who put out interests before the enemy's.

>>>Just saw this on CNN International, the anchor said they were not sure they got them all. <<<

Huh - they're are hundreds of thousands of Islamo-fascist terrorists. They may get all involved in this specific threat, but until we start doing away with terorists wholesale, and I mean summary-execution of hundreds at a time, we won't make a dent in their lust for our death.

Anything less will result in your granddaughters wearing burkhas.

The linked article doesn't say what we all know. These are Islamic terrorists.
