. Sean said that FNC was reporting that the threat was a dirty bomb. The problem is where? When? How?

It would be nice if our government would give us some idea where they think these attacks will occur, many lives could be saved if they would allow us to know things and we could evacuate, at least get our kids out.

What if they have more than one of these dirty bombs here in the country. Mean they have had more than the last 10 years planning this as well as the NYC attack. They could have a few hidden all over the country waiting for the right moment to set them off.

It's not that simple. If they announced a "possible target" and evacuated that city (which itself would cause *HUGE* disruptions and logistical nightmares -- ever evacuate several million people, including hospitals?), then the terrorists could bring the country to its knees for the next ten years by doing *nothing* but sending fake messages to each other in the hopes that we would intercept them and trigger yet another evacuation. "Abdul, we strike at Miami on the Tenth, prepare yourself for martyrdom..."

Screw that.
