Critical Threats: Blank When None
Cheney warns of new attacks

Former Vice President Dick Cheney warned that there is a “high probability” that terrorists will attempt a catastrophic nuclear or biological attack in coming years, and said he fears the Obama administration’s policies will make it more likely the attempt will succeed.

In an interview Tuesday with Politico, Cheney unyieldingly defended the Bush administration’s support for the Guantanamo Bay prison and coercive interrogation of terrorism suspects.

And he asserted that President Obama will either backtrack on his stated intentions to end those policies or put the country at risk in ways more severe than most Americans — and, he charged, many members of Obama’s own team — understand.

“When we get people who are more concerned about reading the rights to an Al Qaeda terrorist than they are with protecting the United States against people who are absolutely committed to do anything they can to kill Americans, then I worry,” Cheney said.

Co-Conspirator on Campus
By Joe Kaufman
FrontPageMagazine.com | Tuesday, February 17, 2009

It’s Islam Awareness Month once again at the University of Florida (UF) Gainesville, and once again “unindicted co-conspirator” of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, Siraj Wahhaj, has been invited to participate. Given the inappropriate nature of the event, can anyone question the radical nature of the group who is sponsoring his appearance?....

“Mr. Todd, if you hold nothing so sacred as to wish death upon those who would defile or dishonor it, then you are lost and will never understand.”

This morning I was on the Garrison show, which airs Monday through Friday from 8:30-11:30AM EST on 93.1 FM, WIBC in Indianapolis. Former Jerusalem Post Publisher Tom Rose was sitting in as guest host for Greg Garrison, and Tom and I had a good, wide-ranging discussion about the stealth jihad in America and related matters. Toward the end of the hour and for some time thereafter, producer Todd Meyer participated in this highly revealing text message exchange with a Muslim listener:.....

Frightening Film on U.S. Terrorism Training Camps

This is a rush transcript from “Hannity,” February 16, 2009. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.

SEAN HANNITY, HOST: The group is responsible for over 50 attacks on U.S. soil and has over 35 compounds right here in our very own nation. Now, a new investigation by the Christian Action Network has uncovered some disturbing information about the spread of homegrown terrorists and what they mean for America.

HANNITY (voice-over): It’s a frightening thought: Islamic terrorist training camps right here in America in our backyards. The group Muslims of America, or Jamaat ul-Fuqra, as they’re called in Pakistan, have established over 35 communities across the U.S.

The group claims to be peaceful, but a videotape uncovered by the Christian Action Network shows that they can have a much more sinister side.

The video, called “The Soldiers of Allah,” features Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani, the mastermind and the leader of the group here in the U.S.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We are establishing training camps. You can reach us. At you know, Quranic open university offices in New York, or in Canada, or in Michigan, or in South Carolina or in Pakistan. Wherever you are, you can reach us.

HANNITY: The tape goes on to teach Gilani’s American followers tactics in guerilla warfare, including scaling mountains, subduing enemies, murdering guards, hijacking cars, kidnapping, weapons training, and setting off explosives.

Gilani is a Pakistani national best known for allegedly setting up journalist Daniel Pearl in 2002. Pearl was on the way to meet with him when he was abducted and eventually gruesomely beheaded.

Armed with the, quote, “Soldier of Allah” training video and a history of Gilani’s terrorist rhetoric, investigators went to several of the compounds to confront his followers.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You are a liar, and you are a liar.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Don’t say another word.

HANNITY: They were met with denial, hostility, and in some cases, even violence.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Clearly looks like either knife holes or bullet holes.

HANNITY: And the question remains: why have these communities been left to flourish here in the U.S.? And is it only a matter of time before this anger spills on over into a violent incident?

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HANNITY: And Martin Mawyer now joins us.

Thirty-five facilities in the U.S. Tell me this — tell me this is not true, and how does this continue to exist?

• Video: Watch Sean’s interview

MARTIN MAWYER, CHRISTIANACTION.ORG: There’s 35 compounds, villages, communities that Sheikh Gilani has inside the United States. They range anywhere from the East coast of New York to South Carolina to the West Coast, Seattle, Washington, and from New York down to Texas.

HANNITY: Knowing the extremism that you’re talking about, that he advocates here, and this is not in dispute, correct?

MAWYER: No, it’s not in dispute.

HANNITY: Then why would the United States government allow these facilities to stay open?

al-Qaeda Claims to Have Nukes !!
Jamestown.org/Yidwithlid ^ | 2/18/09 | Yidwithlid

Posted on Wednesday, February 18, 2009 7:45:59 PM by Shellybenoit

Khalid Sheik Mohammed, mastermind of 9/11 and chief operating officer of al-Qaeda, who revealed under intensive interrogation — including the much-maligned tactic of waterboarding — that a nuclear attack against the United States was a top priority for al-Qaeda. He wants to execute it in a way that kills up to 10,000,000 Americans.

Former Clinton Secretary of Defense William Perry and former Assistant Secretary of Defense Graham Allison believe that the nuclear destruction of one or more American cities is more probable than not in the very near future. Scary isn’t it. Especially when you consider how close terrorist supporter Iran is to getting the “bomb.” So while “President Obama” will be talking to Iran, some nut sent by one of Irans’s buddies may be melting NYC.

Our new government doesn’t really understand the threat. We keep hearing politicians talk about the retribution that Iran would receive should there be a nuclear attack on Israel or the US. What they don’t get is mutually assured destruction is not a threat to people who strap bombs onto their children’s backs so they can blow themselves up. YOU CAN’T TALK TO CRAZY PEOPLE. If they don’t care about their children, what in heaven’s name makes one think they are going to care about yours?

According to the head or al-Qaeda in Yemen, Nasir Abdul Kareem al-Wahayshi we should find out soon. Nasir claims that al-Qaeda already has their hands on nuclear weapons:

Below is an excerpt from the Beck show. I saw State Senator Dan Patrick just now on Fox news stating Texas has declared an emergency and will protect it’s border even if the FEDS won’t!! Gov. Perry and the Texas Homeland Security Sec’y are on top of this and hopefully will stop them from spilling this mess onto our side.

____________________________

snip~

PATRICK: Well, Glenn, we had hearings a couple of weeks ago. And I asked our Homeland Security Director Steve McCraw of Texas if he feared the collapse of Mexico and did we have a plan. And he didn’t deny the fact that it is a concern.

And since that subcommittee meeting we had a few weeks ago, he has been working with Gov. Perry and I’m meeting with him in a few days, as a matter of fact, to see their progress on developing a plan.

You will love this term, Glenn. The United States has a plan called “mass migration” as opposed to the collapse of Mexico. And we need a plan here in Texas because there are two scenarios, Glenn. One is a slow collapse, an economic collapse of Mexico in which hundreds of thousands would come here over a period of time.

The second is what I call a Colombian collapse of Mexico, an assassination of the president, the drug cartels taking over the country, civil war breaking out on the streets, people fleeing for their lives, not for a job.snip~

We have to be prepared in the United States for both and Texas must be prepared.

BECK: What do you think -

PATRICK: We’re already seeing violence on the border, on our side.

BECK: What are you going to do? Violence on the border - nobody even understands this. If I said, America - 20 people were beheaded last year on our border.

PATRICK: Right.

BECK: Would you be amazed? How about if I tell you 20 people were beheaded on our border last month? And nobody knows about it. What are you going to do for these bodies?

PATRICK: Yes, we found 1,000 bodies on the border in our last reporting year, by the way, Glenn. And what we’re going to do is - what we need to do is we need the Federal Government to do their job and enforce the border, number one.

Wondering what other than the Guard and Texas Rangers the Gov would have at his disposal? I know we have Ft Hood and several air force bases in San Antonio but probably not at the disposal of the Gov.

I suspect that using the military from Ft. Hood and others could be construed as a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. IMHO, this IS a matter of national security (as opposed to a domestic security issue).

Definitions are funny things.
