One of the FBI’s most wanted qaeda operatives loose in this country is a physician by education and has ties to bio weaponry training from Saddam’s secret police. He has a female traveling companion if my memory serves ... the info is years old, since just after 911.

I certainly hope there will not be a terrorist attack on the US.

However, if there is, I certainly hope it will not be proved the terrorists waltzed into our country via our Southern border.

Talk about heads rolling!

If past performance is any indicator then instead of heads rolling, someone will get a bonus and a promotion!

One of the doctors involved in the attempted British bombings had ties in Bangalore, another in Sydney.

The terrorists could care less if We bomb Saudi Arabia. (RE, AQ’s latest internet message.)

There are possibly only twenty different threads. Most of the apparent multiplicity of threads is like having ten thousand trees in your yard but only twenty species.

I saw a radical muslim on Hannity Sunday night. He said that there is no reason to attack the U.S. because Bush is taking this country down fast enough. I don’t buy his logic but I do believe that political correctness is playing right into the hands of those who want this country and what it stands for destroyed.

I am rather hoping there is.
The ignorant and the PC crowd is creating the death of our culture "by a thousand cuts". The maggots are fine with this.

Me? I would rather go quickly and violently, with at least a shot by the rest of us to stamp out the disease permanently, once and for all.

Either way, if our culture survives, that is the only option.

There was a whole thread the other day about ostensibly offensive bollards in Oregon.

No successfull attack since 9/11 on the scale of the twin towers, but we have been attacked by individuals on much smaller scales. Let's keep in mind that the goal of the Ismalmoscum is to cause panic and break the will of the American people by widespread attacks of whatever kind they can pull off. "Fabian tactics involved the avoidance of all direct contact with the enemy. The Mongol army would often divide into small groups [cells] to prevent it from being surrounded when necessary, and then regroup and launch a surprise attack on the enemy at a more opportune time." The Mongol Art of War, Timothy May 2007, page 75.

We here in the West need to stop thinking in terms of "winning" decisive battles and wars. The war of ideology transcends borders and the soldiers don't wear uniforms. It's not something new, either. Many third world theaters of war are full of Asian fighting tactics. "The Mongols combined the arrow storm [which weakened morale as soldiers had to watch arrows wound their comrades without being able to retaliate; sound like IEDs?] with hit-and-run tactics, changing horses regularly to keep them fresh."

We are being attacked every day; we are being probed every day; our weak spots are being targeted every day and our center of gravity is being shifted off-center.
