That's a pretty old report. Could you try to keep things current just now? Old news is not really that useful at the moment. Thanks.

True, but passengers on 10 planes, particularly 10 747s, adds up to more than 9/11 if they're reasonably full.

"Why don't they let Israel destroy Hezbollah? What's UP!!!!???"

For political reasons, I think if suited us best to first prove that the UN would take a hardline (disarming Hezbollah) stance.

Perhaps Mike Wallace's interview with Iran's big gun (ahmadanutjob) on Sunday/CBS will lend some insight to this.

"This reminds me of that car accident a few months back, in Chicago . . ."

Yes, I remember that. The guy lived just a mile or so from a radical mosque in the Bridgeview suburb. I grew up not far from there and still have family in the general area so it caught my attention at the time. Never did hear the aftermath of that one . . .

WE NEED TO END THIS HERE AND NOW.
It is becoming obvious that the terrorist will not give up on their objective to create devastation beyond human imagination. We could have breaking news tomorrow that Bin Laden and all his surviving lieutenants have been captured or killed, and this will not end it. We need to be sending a very strong message to ALL the Middle Eastern Islamic countries both friend and foe, that this global terrorism better stop Here and Now or else, and there is no weapon in our arsenal that we will not bring out if we deem necessary.
Send a message loud and clear that if they are actively involved in exporting terrorism or even financing terrorism covertly they will pay a heavy price that will last a thousand years.

I agree with you 100%. If any "innocent" muzzies get offended, they have only their tribesmen to blame.

My wife ( a teacher) has been told to keep her eyes open on the 22nd. I have been telling her to stay home that day.

Remember they were saying "thousands of deaths" even as they only mentioned about 10 planes as targets the other day.

They were talking about the number of deaths as 'unimaginable'. Obviously it was more than ten planes.

With the National Guard at our airports, obviously it was more than planes in England.

Well, Lockerbie death toll was 200-something, IIRC. At 250 per plane x 10=2500.

These people intended to kill EUROS by the thousands...

Will this wake these folks up? Or will it take a a city going up in a nuclear hellfire to bring them on board?
