We never know what we prevent when this kind of alert is raised,then people complain because nothing bad happens!

Yes. I think a lot more "possible" attacks have been prevented than me have been told. Our government agencies have alot more information then they could ever tell us.

When they are successful in preventing future terrorist acts, we get complacent.

If they were unsuccessful, we'd be criticizing them for failing.

The pressure and tension they deal with almost constantly is intense. We must thank them and appreciate their diligence and hard work. They are unsung, unappreciated heroes every day we do not have a new attack.

AQ's MO is to have a multi layered attack.....there has to be other componets to this plot.
