Question: When we close down embassies, what happens to the secure files in those embassies? Are they moved to other, more secure locations?

[DesertRhino]

I have a fun idea. How about we hold the Saudis responsible and put them on notice. Any attack, and we nuke mecca. This Islamic crap needs to stop, and its all tracing back ultimately to them.

[Yo-Yo]

So we announce on a Friday that we’re closing embassies on Sunday?

Imagine the shock on the terrorists’ faces when they go to attack our embassies on Sunday afternoon and find out they’re all closed...

[dirtboy]

The solution is obvious, the NSA needs to collect even MORE data on Americans!

[Venturer]

BS There is no Al Qaeda. Obama said so.

Meantime he is sending them weapons in Syria, so they can kill Christians.

[Doofer]

Why should we believe King or anyone else in this government?

[TomGuy]

It does smack of 'convenience'.

What better way to 'justify' the use of spying/listening in/reading emails, etc., and chance the conversation/news headlines?

Oh, look! A shiny new distraction!

“We’re not certain exactly where something might happen but it’s very specific as to when and it’s also very specific as to the fact that it is going to happen, so we have to be on alert everywhere,”

That sounds like something a 50-cent psychic conjur.

[Third Person]

Peter King is a worthless gasbag who makes a grand living off of the “War on Terror”.

[Common Sense 101]

Let me get this straight... the jug-eared douchebag declared that Al Qaeda “has been decimated” and then tells our about 20% of our embassies to close because of potential attacks by the same terrorist group. Yeah, that makes sense.

[darkwing104]

U.S. officials have not offered many details on the nature of the threat, but apparently are taking it seriously.

Fellow FReepers...That is called a "CYOA" line. A distraction. the 4th will be Laylat al-Qadr the "Night of Destiny, Night of Power, Night of Value, the Night of Decree or Night of Measures." A day of Judgment, their idea of the book of Revelations.

4 Aug believed to be the date that the Child molester Muhammad revealed the original Quran. It a Shia thing the Sunnis are not into it...BTW al Qaeda are Sunni

I am taking a wait and see approach, if nothing happens, it was an another attempt by the Administration to divert attention away from Benghazi, aka that phony scandal

[Mr. K]

US (Morons in charge): “We are going to shut down the embassies on Sunday because there is a terrorist threat”

Terrorists (not as stupid as our guys, apparently): “Hey guys, let’s sleep in on Sunday. We’ll go Monday, OK?”

[Mr Ramsbotham]

If the threat is so specific, why is the response so general?
Methinks, as others have opined, that this is a ruse to convince the public that spying programs are a necessity.

[Don Corleone]

The USA is now officially the laughingstock of the planet.

[chris37]

BS King.

I do not believe you.

Al Qaeda has been destroyed by Obama.

And the Muslim world loves us now.

Stop it with your paranoid delusions.

[Vaduz]

Strange timing about the call?.

[servantboy777]

Here's an idea...how bout beefing up security to the max. Put a hundred seasoned marines in each compound with a couple of hundred waiting offsite to act.

Give these guys rockets and mortars, heavy machine guns. Fly C-130’s above them during the night.

These muzzies understand one thing only, force.

Instead of the usual liberal wussy response...show power and might and determination and patriotism.

Embassy soil is sovereign U.S. territory...defend it!

Man these liberal are sickening.

[hummingbird]

"The travel alert was the first of its kind since an announcement preceding the tenth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks."

Guess I'll have to look back - there was "an announcement preceding the tenth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks".

Then why didn't they beef up security or get everyone out.

Guess I'm forgetful. I just don't remember a travel alert announcement for 9/11/2012.

Bad memory, I guess.

[The Sons of Liberty]

Rep. Peter King says Al Qaeda threat is 'very specific' as US issues travel alert

Hey Peter, maybe you didn't get the memo: "Al queda is on the run and the War on Terror is over." That's what Hussein 0bama and Idiot Joe Biden said, and they wouldn't lie, would they?

/sarc

[petitfour]

This is just a distraction to draw attention to Obama’s birthday. Why don’t they release the specific threat?

[B212]

Hide under your bed.....quick run away and hide....the Muslims are coming....don’t go outside the Muslims may see you....Hide!!!!
