Thanks for the ping. I think we have much to fear from China. While all eyes are focused on the Mid-East, China’s military build up should be garnering more attention. The last time I was there, I was amazed at all the six and eight lane highways being built. I asked our English speaking Chinese driver why? (since there was so little traffic on them).......his answer.....”for the military”.

That was rather chilling.

That is chilling!

My Mother told me more than 30 years ago that the Chinese would take over the world one day. I guess unfortunately she was right.

Interesting and not at all a surprise.

Laughing and thinking of the Beale wagon road that goes across America, it was also for the military, built in the run up to the Civil War.

Report: Tampa Bay area chemical facilities at risk

The scenario goes something like this: Under the cover of darkness, a terrorist slips into Tampa's Howard F. Curren Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant undetected. He places a bomb under one of the plant's chlorine gas tanks and sets the timer. The tank explodes, sending a deadly plume of toxic gas out over the Tampa Bay area.

Before authorities can figure out what happened, hundreds of thousands are dead. It could happen, at least according to a report released this week by the Center for American Progress, a Washington D.C.-based nonpartisan think tank.
