Re- carrier and sub movements.

I agree with you, Labyrinthos. I believe we are going to face war with Russia.

They are moving their chess pieces, as well.

Airlift of Russian army units to Far East launched


MOSCOW. June 10 (Interfax)


Airlift of Land Forces units to the Far East by civilian airliners has started in Russia in the framework of a large-scale exercise, a spokesman for the Defense Ministry said on Thursday.

"Two IL-86 Camber planes left the Koltsovo airfield in Yekaterinburg for the Far East today. Each carries 135 servicemen with armaments and ammunition," the spokesman told Interfax-Military News Agency.

Nine more IL-76 Candid military transport planes carrying armor will leave Koltsovo for the Far East later on Thursday.

"Ten IL-76s airlifted automobiles and armored vehicles from the Koltsovo airfield to the Belaya airfield in the Khabarovsk territory on Wednesday," the spokesman noted.

A total of 800 servicemen and 100 armor pieces are to be airlifted, he said.

I agree, there's something really really wrong about this story.

Re- nukes.

IMO their plan would provide for redundancy. I believe they would plan to detonate or lob more than one nuke per target city. Recall Sean said that there were some 35 nukes in clusters of 4-5 across US cities?

I think they would probably have a nuke or two stashed in the city, and a nuke or two coming in from the water.

Re- nukes. (Yes, I can't seem to stop thinking about them--time to go to the Mall.)

A friend of mine listens to NPR and told me that a few weeks ago, they were discussing the AQ nukes. Apparently it was reported that AQ had actually bought a strategic nuclear weapon from the former USSR. It was said to be in the megaton range, and had cost AQ a fortune.

Is that why we are pulling forces out of NK as fast as we can?
Are 12 or 15 thousand of a 30 thousand strong force going to Iraq?

TAIWAN TINDERBOX
China to attack Taipei in 2006?
Official, expert agree strike is coming
Posted: June 10, 2004
1:00 a.m. Eastern


© 2004 WorldNetDaily.com

A top Taiwanese defense official and an expert on the Chinese military both said yesterday Beijing is ready, willing and able to attack the island soon.

The Peoples Liberation Army has the capability to blockade Taiwan using missile-strike zones, George Washington University professor David Shambaugh told the Foreign Correspondents Club in Beijing.

The world should not be surprised if the mainland makes the move against Taiwan in 2006, he added.

"The PLA is increasingly able and willing to use a whole range of means to threaten Taiwan – electronic, naval, air, missiles, special operations," said Shambaugh. "[The PLA] has been preparing since the 1996 missile crisis to implement a spectrum of capabilities.

Re--GPS--could this be consistent with the military possibly deciding to undermine use of GPS systems by US enemies?

This would also fit with GWEN remaining activated.

I don't think China is going to wait until 2006. Chen has been too outspoken. IMO China will act very quickly to attack the ROC. IMO they will do so when the US is "occupied" elsewhere- as in responding to AQ attacks, wmd in Iraq, etc.

North Korea has tested a 2nd stage missle (made partially in China?) which certainly cranks the heat up this summer(Might NK be part of the diversion for the Chinese attack on Taiwan?):

Thank you, rickylc. I am hyper-alert--was up most of the night- really wished I had some sleeping medication.

I fear we are facing much more than AQ. The way things are lining up, it appears to me that we are going to be at war with Russia and China.

Sooner rather than later.
Possibly even this weekend.

Russia has been moving its forces around, as well. Both sides are on hairtrigger alert.

China wants Taiwan...and Chen did not back down.

NK wants to keep its nukes and did more test firing of missiles.

Israel wants to get rid of Iran's nuke facilities

Russia and China want first dibs on oil.

Everyone and his brother has nuclear weapons.

Khan gave nukes to Egypt and other ME countries.

AQ bought nukes from Pakistan.




I pray that cooler heads will prevail- but the conflicts almost seem to have escalated to the point of no return.

I hope you are wrong, but there are many signs pointing to what you have deduced.

New York Police Say E-Mail on (June 11) Subway Attack Is Hoax

Wed Jun 9, 2004 08:23 PM ET
Date in title added by me.


MORE

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The New York police said on Wednesday there was no truth to an e-mail being circulated that the city's subway system would be attacked on June 11.
"The police department has received no credible threat information concerning a widely circulated e-mail message that discusses a purported subway attack allegedly planned for Friday, June 11th," Deputy Commissioner Paul Browne said in a statement.

New York has been on high alert since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks when hijacked airplanes destroyed the World Trade Center and damaged the Pentagon in Washington, killing almost 3,000 people.

The e-mail, a copy of which was sent to a Reuters staffer, said city officials had received intelligence about a "possible terror attack in the city (most likely the subways) planned for this Friday."

The e-mail also said New York officials had ordered thousands of body bags and postulated that Friday's date -- June 11 -- was similar to Sept. 11 and March 11, when bombs on Madrid trains killed 191 people.

"I hope all this is bull and nothing happens this Friday or any day for that matter. One thing is for certain though, if I have to work on Friday I am taking a cab," the e-mail concluded.

Browne said the message was a computer virus that finds names in recipients' address books and spreads to other computers. He urged people not to open electronic messages from suspect or unknown senders.
