I definately agree re: AQ being a Russian proxy.

Goes back to Nynquist's stories about what Soviet General Lebed said.."WHEN the US is attacked with a suitcase nuclear weapon, it will be blamed on 'Arab terrorists'. Don't believe it. It will be Russian Spetsnaz [sp - Secret Service]".

Supposedly, they would go for our satellite uplink stations first, to 'blind' the US to ICBM launches. This matches EOM's claim that we will be "blind" after the attack.

The only thing we can hope is that W & company have warned Putin and his gang thoroughly, and that we are "on" to what's happening (assuming you and I are correct in our assumptions).

I also assume that if we've thought of this angle, that the USG is also all over it. Which makes me feel "somewhat" better - although I'm pretty concerned about the upcoming Russian nuclear manuevers (supposedly the largest in > 20 years?). One has to wonder if that's timed to coincide with a major attack in the US...just as the Rusky bombers are airborne..hmmmmmm..

I do have to say that I am pretty amazed that we didn't see any major attack "between the Eids", as promised directly by AQ (in the "break the back, change the order of things" threat that one of the AQ leaders actually did make - I forget where, but it was not on a message board but an actual interview).
