Drudge is currently flashing a story about an imminent terror threat against German citizens in the country.

This morning, the State of Alabama was the announced winner of a $4 billion steel mfg. plant to be located in Mobile, Al by German steelmaker ThyssenKrupp. There was supposed to be a press conference and public announcement with Governor Riley and the CEO and other representatives of ThyssenKrupp.

About an hour ago, traffic was temporarily halted on I-85 West in Montgomery as approximately 50 police cars and motorcycles passed by along with 1 Humvee.

Information is locked up tight, and none of the authorities will talk with the local press about it and are claiming a lack of knowldege. There have been some statements in the local press (talk radio) that it involves Homeland Security.

Needless to say, something is up.

"ThyssenKrupp has chosen Alabama over Louisiana in placing a steel plant which is a 3.1 billion mill in a highly-competitive economic development bid for a major plant that could employ 2,700 people and over 38,000 individuals in indirect jobs. Louisiana House had made a last ditch effort to secure the plant on Thursday by adding an additional one hundred million dollars to the pot and other incentives. The decision is a real blow to Louisiana as it tries to recover from the ravages of Katrina and Rita."

So Alabama won it? Another nail in Blanco’s coffin of worthlessness.

On some sports boards, using the word “Germans” in an article title means that the subject has been posted several times or old news. It’s a reference back to Bluto’s “Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?” speech from Animal House.

Don’t those dumb Germans know that the real cheap labor is in Mexico?

I guess you haven't seen a chart of the Euro.

I heard this kind of stuff the other day. What has it to do with AL?

[FReepaholic]

...It is against Americans in Germany, not Germans in America...

Well....nevermind.

Thank you, Cicero. That’s the REAL story. The original thread for that got bumped out of ‘breaking news’ but this one remains. Bizarre.

“Law enforcement officials tell the Blotter on ABCNews.com that U.S. air marshals have been diverted to provide expanded protection of flights between Germany and the United States.”

The above statement catches my attention. Could this be larger than we are hearing from ABC NEWS?

"The g*d@||n'd Germans got nuthin' to DO wid it!"

I see everyone’s in one of those silly moods. It’s Friday! LOL!

[the OlLine Rebel]

Perhaps they considered the character of the people as blatantly exposed in that tragedy.

Heinekin guy, anyone?

Hitler Cat speaks German. Is that helpful?

“advanced planning stages of an attack on U.S. military personnel or tourists in Germany.”

Oh great! My Nephew a sergeant in a deuce-four Stryker Brigade survives a tour in Afghanistan, and then Iraq before the unit is transferred to the safe confines of Germany - and now this.

They'll just hire the illegal ones already here. That way they get the cheap labor and the favorable tax laws in the south.

Shower alert!
