I think the US should sell more crypto phones to Syria. Except these phone should be ones that dont work so good, if you know what I mean. Eventually it will be impossible to figure out which crypto phones are the good ones and will shut down this mode of communication.

Do you have any info or articles that discuss that the terrorists had infiltrated the CIA, etc?
-- mommadooo3

No, there may be something on FR but not that I have seen. Such would not surprise me at all though.

(You may want to search google or dogpile with all the words: terrorists,infiltrated, CIA, and freerepublic)

We do however have stories that show the CIA and FBI ignored warnings including:

An Iranian man living in Germany who tried his best and managed to call both the White House and the CIA to warn them of an imminent attack.

And THe French Secret Service warned the USA of evidence of serious threats of an attack. However again the US Government decided not to do anything to go after the people, investigate the matter or to warn airport security or tighten airport security. There are rerports that some important brass at the Pentagon was warned the day before and canceled plane trips.

Also there is plenty of evidence that the FBI knew that bin Laden had heavy ties to Boston and no actions were taken to shut down or deport anyone there tied to terrorist groups or bin Laden.

Please read all of my threads since the bombing.

You might want to give Oscar Meyer a call about purchasing that tonnage of bologna.

Tell me how I am wrong. Do you believe that it was known for certain ahead of time that the American people would rally behind the war effort? Do you believe that our crippled navy's ability to turn the tide against the Japanese at the Battle of Midway was a foregone conclusion?

See post # 26 where I listed the FR addresses of all of the threads I have posted concerning the mass attacks.

One of them includes over 50 different stories, though I haven't counted actually how many.

Jut got word from a close Intel source. A field office of the FBI was called about this very thing yesterday, including cities - did not take it seriously. The info was being passed on by one who overheard and saw. I can't say which FBI office.

Your phoney phone idea reminds me of the medfly solution, of introducing sterile males into the population.

Luke 22:36 (KJV) --Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

Got sword? (M1 Garand)

No mercy, no quarter!
May the jihadists burn in hell for eternity!
Help speed them on their way!

Casimiro Madarang, chief of the immigration bureau at Cebu airport, said all had recently been in Pakistan an average of five months, which he considered to be enough time for terrorism training, so they were barred as potential security threats.

Seems like the Phillipines have a good handle on their immigration. Why not us?

The only thing more useless than an alarm that never goes off is an alarm that ALWAYS goes off.

Senate OKs FBI Net Spying By Declan McCullagh

12:55 p.m. Sep. 14, 2001 PDT

WASHINGTON -- FBI agents soon may be able to spy on Internet users legally without a court order.

On Thursday evening, two days after the worst terrorist attack in U.S. history, the Senate approved the "Combating Terrorism Act of 2001," which enhances police wiretap powers and permits monitoring in more situations.

Stay Safe, RT

I felt that Internet privacy would be one of the first targets to tumble. I didn't want to say so a few days ago, for fear of being labeled a kook. Of course, one could argue that with Carnivore, Internet privacy was already gone.
