"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat"

Two Chinese diplomats, away from their Los Angeles consulate improperly, recently sped their vehicle past a Los Alamos National Laboratory guard post near classified facilities in what U.S. officials think was an intelligence mission, The Washington Times has learned.

Yep. Good call. I've always thought it would be "all of the above" as well on the method.

Last night someone commented here that there wasn't much happening, might I offer the thought that sex always sells and it appears that Iraq prison sex, will hog the news wires for a few more days.

Then we will see the news that are important again-maybe.

Guns for cash in Sadr City today. We are idiots, they are laughing at us, ripping up the leaflets and burning them. I think we have no idea who we are dealing with, they are all savages intent on fighting, they love to fight, they hate us. Whose cash is that anyway? I don't want my money going to some thug terrorist in Iraq! If it's Saddams money fine.

And, since we control the oil fields now, why am I paying almost $2.50 for gas. They owe us for their freedom!! Forget the guns for cash, it's oil for freedom and anyone caught with a gun is dead if they don't put it down. /rant

There is a need to check more than the crew.

Why would they be moving those beams, with the highway open???????

I would expect a ten year old boy, to not do something that dumb.

ooops, forgot, this is 2004. It is ok to die, unless you are military.

Sorry, guess I am in a bad mood - already, it seems to upset me to hear the military counted as a disaster on the news.

Can't they let the Military be Men and do the jobs they are trained to do, without some ________ ___person, creating a scene with every move.

Next life, I want to be a Marine Field General, and show them how to fight a war. (Never mind telling me that they don't exist, this is my version of the story.)

I think that I am in the mood to join the old gal who has been calling the talk shows on KDWN for months and predicting that there will be a Civil War in the U.S. before September.

I will start with shooting my radio, if i hear that gal who reads the news say "bush" in a disgusted voice, without the "President", or with glee read the news on the Military.

rant over.

hugs

Disney erects bomb barriers


Steel barricades block service entrances at theme parks

By Sean Mussenden
Sentinel Staff Writer
Posted May 15 2004

Walt Disney World has installed high-security, anti-terrorist barricades similar to those protecting the White House, U.S. embassies and nuclear-waste depots.

The hydraulically powered, steel barricades block the service entrances of the giant resort's four theme parks and were apparently designed to stop a 20,000-pound truck bomb traveling 70 mph.


The dozen or more yellow-and-black barricades are so state-of-the-art that the manufacturer recently shipped the same model to Baghdad, Iraq, to guard the new U.S. Embassy there.

Disney did not install the barricades in response to a specific terrorist threat against the parks, spokeswoman Jacquee Polak said Friday in confirming the new security measure. Rather, they are part of Disney's continually evolving "security plan," she said.

"We're living in a time of heightened security, and we're continuing to undertake strict security measures," she said.

Since the 2001 attacks in New York and Washington, D.C., homeland-security officials have warned that Disney's iconic theme parks could provide an inviting target for terrorists.While Disney has routinely declined to discuss the steps it has taken to increase security at its parks, some measures have become public. For example, last year the company persuaded Congress to close the airspace over Disney World to low-flying aircraft. And just last month, Disney began after-hours testing of metal detectors at the main entrances to its parks.

The Orlando Sentinel learned of the barriers when the installation work was in its final stages. Friday was the first day the Sentinel observed any of the barriers in use as a matter of routine. Polak said construction work on the barricades began several months ago. They have recently become operational at all the parks, she said.

Giving cash for guns sounds like a million moron march tactic.

Anyone with a gun AND a cover on their head to cover their identity should be shot right on the spot period. No questions asked. If they are trying to cover their identity then they are up to no good anyway.

I agree.

Here is another article probably related to the religion of peace..........

Thefts of bomb-grade fertiliser spark alarm in France
PARIS - Spooked by the recent train bombings in Spain, French anti-terrorism prosecutors are investigating two thefts of a bomb-grade fertiliser.

The thefts took place in central France and Normandy, where US President George W. Bush and other world leaders will gather for D-Day celebrations next month.


Thieves stole about 1,200kg of ammonium nitrate from storage facilities in the Haute Loire region and on Normandy's north Atlantic coast in the past month, a senior official in the Paris prosecutor's office said.

French police have not determined whether the thefts are related to terrorist activity or were carried out by the same person or group, the official cautioned on Thursday.

In addition to Islamic extremists, violent Basque and Corsican groups are potential suspects because of their history of stealing ammonium nitrate and other bomb-making materials in France.

The fact that one theft took place about 100km from the site of the D-Day events in Normandy has also attracted the attention of French and American law enforcement authorities, officials said.

Mr Bush, French President Jacques Chirac and Russian President Vladimir Putin are among 17 world leaders expected for elaborate ceremonies marking the 60th anniversary of the Allied landing on the beaches of Nazi-occupied France on June 6, 1944.

HERE'S AN INTERESTING PRAYER. I hope it's true. Not sure what I feel about that. I think I feel that there's at least a strong chance it can be true--IF sufficient numbers pray earnestly enough. We shall see.




RESPONSE TO DON FRANKLIN'S CALL TO PRAY FOR WASHINGTON DC
NOTE FROM PAM:
I feel strongly led to respond to this call by Don Franklin to pray. I hope you will join me in this prayer and also use your own to call our nation back to repentance and righteousness. There is much you can add to this. It's just a primer. We are definitely at a place of spiritual crisis but we also know that God does hear our prayers!
--- PROPHECY BY DON FRANKLIN:
And I will tell you of a truth, I have not appointed this nation to destruction. I've not set a decree in heaven and said, "This nation will go down." I have not called for flaming retribution and vengeance and violence upon this land.
--- Lord, we agree with and declare Your word! This nation will not go down. This nation will not be under Your curse for it was founded in You and it was established in You. Lord, we declare that your faithfulness is greater than ours and when we were too weak to care for ourselves and and be saved, You appointed Your Son to come and die for us. Lord, the Sacrifice has been made, and so now we call on Your great mercy.
--- But there are those who would do this. There are those even now who are plotting and planning a "fifth column" within the nation that would plan the destruction within this nation, that the European nation even, would go forward and become the dominate power on the planet. But that is not My will and that is not My intent, and that is not what I want to happen, saith the Lord.
--- Lord, we declare Your Kingdom come and Your Will be done! Lord we pray for the righteous to rule in this land and for the righteous to rule on this earth! The Earth is Yours, Lord, and the fullness there of, and yes, all those who dwell there in. Lord, we declare that Your rule is the righteous and rightful rule and we decree it by our will in You for it to be so!
--- So I'm calling you, as I'm calling other groups around this nation, to step in the gap and intervene, saith God. It is a truism. As the call goes up, God comes down. So call upon God; call upon God; call upon God.
--- Lord, we do, we call upon You. We call upon You. We call upon You, and no other, for there is no other god, but You, Lord. We stand in the gap right now with our will for Your Name's sake, Lord. Your Kingdom come, Your will be done!
--- There is a huge and a vast struggle going on over Washington, because that is the key to the power in this nation and so I call you to pray for your leaders. I call you to pray for those senators and congressmen and I call you to start making decrees, saith the Lord. I'm putting prophetic mantles upon you today for declaration.
--- Lord, we declare that Washington belongs to the Lord. We declare that Washington DC belongs to the Most High God. We say it is Your rule and no other and we claim Washington DC for Jesus. Lord we claim for our leaders to be Your leaders for us and not another. Let the righteous rule, O God, with Your help. Lord, we claim Washington for You.
Lord, we cry out for the leadership of this land and in Washington and we ask for the corrupt leaders to come down. We cry for senators and congressmen of Your Choice for our good, and for the good of Your people, O God, for Your Name's sake, and for Your Son who paid the price.
Lord, You gave us this land and You have blessed our government and we have known a peaceful land. Now though we have strayed, and people have turned away, we ask for revival, O God, for that which needs to be brought back to life. We ask for You to get our attention Lord, that this nation might turn to You again and be saved. Bring back justice, bring back righteousness. Delight in mercy and put a willing spirit in us again, O Lord. We solemnly declare that we need You.
--- Decree the fall of those who would destroy this country. Decree that they will be taken out of power. Decree, saith the Lord, with your own mouth. Speak, that the enemy will be pulled down, that the strongholds will come down, and that righteousness will come forward. For the ear of the Lord is open to the cry of the righteous and I am waiting to hear my people cry, and cry, and cry unto Me in these areas and I will respond, saith God.
--- Lord, we decree the fall of those who would destroy this country, those who would take advantage and spoil and ruin this land and people. Lord remove the evil ones from power. Redeem and restore, Lord, redeem and restore.
Lord, in Your Name, and by Your authority, we pull down the enemy, we decree that they will be taken from power and those who love life would hold authority. Establish Your strongholds, God, and let every stronghold of evil power be brought down!
Lord, you know those who would destroy this land and those who would destroy our government and those who would abuse and destroy Your children, including the innocent and weak and helpless. Lord, you know their thoughts and You know their plans. We break the powers of darkness and declare and call forth the Kingdom of Light and Life through our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the King of kings and the Lord of lords.
Lord, we call forth the righteous ones, we call for the righteous to live and rule and have their being in You. We call for those who are hidden to come out so that our land may rejoice before You and receive Your blessings. We call forth the righteous to redeem this land for Your Name and sake and purposes.
We join with all the saints and angels who say, "Holy is the Lord! The whole earth is filled with His Glory, and His Spirit and Glory will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. It is written!!! And we claim it and declare it, O God, in the Name of Your Son. Revive us in the midst of our years. We are a needy people who can rejoice in You.
--- You will see things change on a national level. You've seen things change on your own level when you've cried unto Me about your family, when you've cried unto Me about situations. You've seen answers to prayer on close levels to your own life and your own family. You can remember right now, "Yes, God answered that prayer. Yes, I called for this and God brought it. I prayed for this and I saw the Lord move."
--- Yes, Lord, we remember Your Word, we remember Your works. You have been good to us, Lord, You are good and Your mercy and lovingkindness endures forever. You have been a help in the time of trouble and a shelter in the time of storm. Many times You have healed us; many times You have rescued us. Many times have you delivered us and blessed us and set us on high.
Lord, the unrighteous would seek to rule our nation, but we cry out to You, God, You who is able to do all things in signs and wonders and even deep miracles of the heart. Change our hearts to You once again, O Lord. Call to us to You again. Blessed are those whom You call to approach You, O God, we need You.
--- Now advance your faith a little bit and transfer that to a national level and begin to go after the Congress. Begin to go after the Senate. Begin to go after the Supreme Court. Call those people out of position that do not belong there and begin to replace them in your prayer life with godly men and women who will run this nation according to the Word of the Lord.
--- Lord, we pray for our President. We pray for all his advisors. Lord we pray for the Congress and Senate and the Supreme Court and every justice system, and we decree and declare that YOUR Kingdom reigns, O God! We call forth the righteous to rule, God.
Those who unjustly and unrighteously hold positions of power, Lord, those who would take and usurp positions of authority and use that for evil purposes, we ask that you pull them down and replace them with Godly people who will do what is right and lead our nation in the paths of righteousness and peace and Godly honor in every area and level of government.
We ask Your forgiveness, O Lord, in all the ways that we have failed You and we declare that we need Your help, O God. You are the Lord. You are our Shepherd and we are the sheep of Your pasture and You Are a Good Shepherd. We delight in Your ways, O Lord, for they are right and they are good.
Lord we ask for those in positions of authority, who would run this nation according to Your Word and Your Ways and by Your Spirit. Lord cause us to be a witness and a light to the nations again. Let us bless Israel and we pray for them to know You as they should, once again dear Lord. You said those who would bless You and bless Your people and Your land would be blessed and they would prosper, so we ask for Your wisdom and Your insights Lord on this, O Lord.
For Your sake, we declare blessings on Israel, blessings on Washington DC and the United States and its people, and blessings on all those in every nation of the world who would follow Your ways and who will follow hard and close after You. Expand Your Kingdom rule. Your will be done in all the earth.
We declare the righteous blessed, and we say with joy, You are our God! Make haste to deliver us O God, in the Name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God and our Savior, we pray. Amen.

What is wrong with this picture:

UNDOCUMENTED WORKER

VS

ILLEGAL ALIEN

Why are illegals "undocumented" and why are aliens all supposedly "workers?"

Funny you should mention patience. I was talking to someone with the JTTF yesterday, and that very same thing was mentioned. The US is very impatient and always have been. They want action now. AQ KNOWS that regardless of the outcome of their next strike on US soil, successful or not, the US is going to retaliate with all of its might...much harder, more destructive and stronger than after 9/11.

For those reasons and more, I think we had better accept that the next strike will occur in more than one city, there will be one or more types of WMD used, and however and wherever the strike occurs, people need to keep in mind that crippling the US economically and a massive loss of life is a very real possibility. They have not even begun the devastation yet. They are waiting for all things to be in place. According to the posts from the forums, plans are almost completed, and in place. BS? Who knows, but I tend to believe it myself!
