Where is Al Reqqa. Or is that just another name for IS?

[azishot]

B-52s should raze Al Reqqa in an hour......

They should but jug-ears won't let it happen.

Scrolling down the article Drudge linked to - updates have tweets warning “brothers and sisters” to avoid the Covent Garden district in central London.

“They should but jug-ears won’t let it happen.”

True. The American people will demand it WHEN civilians are killed in an atrocious attack on our soil.

It appeares on one of the ISIS follower twitter feeds. Car appears to be a small European model, but that’s just my guess.

If anyone wants to follow his feed, it’s worth it. He always seems to get insider info. @th3j35t3r

These [”lone wolf” attacks by convict converts, announced hacking plans, etc. ]are only probes. The real McCoy begins after the A Team reaches critical mass. The A Team, who are they? They are the muslims currently residing in the United States. At this moment they are laying low and keeping a low profile. Those thousands and hundreds of thousands that Obama, with the aiding and abetting of the Republican Party, plans to resettle all over the entire United States will comprise the rest of the A team. They have a mathematical formula that when they reach a certain per cent of the population, then they go into action.

Some poster hit a nerve.

Why not?

The problem with that assessment is you are relying on the attack vector to be physical. ISIS, unlike al Qaeda, has realized the power they have with cyberattacks. Since we’re all attached around the world, it’s relatively low-cost to attack American, or Western, interests through the use of network-based attack vectors. Many of these hackers have entire fleets of compromised computers (botnets) around the world that can do their bidding. The central control mechanism is skewed by the distributed nature of the network. The damage is done by unsuspecting people around the world, and the perpetrators are never caught.

This attack is predicted to affect network-based systems, although the actual target is unclear.

Nah.............. JUST ANOTHER OBAMA SPEECH

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

We will know in less than 90 minutes if it is a credible threat.

On one hand we were warned about the foiled attack at the draw Mohamed event. IIRC, credit was taken just minutes before.

On the other hand we do not scare easily. Some because they are too stupid, ignorant, politically correct to recognize a threat. Others (count me in) who recognize the threat but refuse to allow fear dictate our lives. If the warning/threat designed to strike fear into our hearts, it is a massive failure.

Looking at the big picture, I have no doubt something is up.

Who knows? But just because the bogeyman isn't under our bed doesn't mean we should not look...just in case.

Just in case: if the grid is disrupted and the net goes down, it's been a blast. :)

Its [the country’s], “commander in chief”, a/k/a, “the people’s choice” is one of the scum. why would he want to wipe himself out?
