Sabotage by an insider at a major utility facility, including a chemical or oil refinery, could provide al Qaeda with its best opportunity for the kind of massive Sept. 11 anniversary attack Osama bin Laden was planning, according to U.S. officials.
A new intelligence report from the Department of Homeland Security issued Tuesday, titled Insider Threat to Utilities, warns "violent extremists have, in fact, obtained insider positions," and that "outsiders have attempted to solicit utility-sector employees" for damaging physical and cyber attacks.
"Based on the reliable reporting of previous incidents, we have high confidence in our judgment that insiders and their actions pose a significant threat to the infrastructure and information systems of U.S. facilities," the bulletin reads in part. "Past events and reporting also provide high confidence in our judgment that insider information on sites, infrastructure, networks, and personnel is valuable to our adversaries and may increase the impact of any attack on the utilities infrastructure."

I also remember six or seven years ago at a Navy installation in San Diego, some contract workers were getting some training in working around radiological materials and a few hours into the class one of them mentioned they weren’t citizens.
Now all of the instructors have to asked at the beginning of class if everyone is a citizen.

EPA? Al Gore?
You are exactly correct—keep ‘em afraid. Paralyze them with fear.... they’ll do anything to “keep the children safe.” Er, Constitution?...move along, it’s irrelevant.
The Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama war against American citizens continues unabated.
Whichever it is, it's right out of the first chapter of Tom Clancy's Red Storm Rising.
Better panic! We’re too free!!! Government would never try to scare us.
I mean, all it says is "violent extremists" without further description.
That's us, isn't it?
I did, however, find it curious that the subjects in question are described in the article alternately as first "outsiders", and then "insiders" without explaining what the heck they mean by either term
(especially "outsiders" ..... "outsiders"??!? Is that something like "die Judenvolk" or are we talking space aliens ... what, exactly does "outsiders" mean?)
A: False Flag.
Gotta prep the sheep to accept the next constriction of our rights under the guise of providing more 'security.'
