From the FR thread:
I got somethin' for you people too. I made a comment in another thread about getting "11 nooses" for those 11 seditionists, and guess what? I get a hysterical email from Larry Johnson HIMSELF, daring me to give him my address so he and his buddies can pay me a personal visit!
I shit you not:

I know that.
I'm just tired of telling others.
I should walk around with a loose leaf notebook and when people say things we know to be false, I could just open up the notebook and have them read the proof.
You're in California?
No wonder you're tired of it. You know what I do? I record Rush's shows every day from his site. I have a stack of cassettes going back three months. I listen to Rush while I'm at work. He goes over these things so many times that it's very hard to forget and is easily used against the left to nuke them. And the great thing about getting it from his site is that it's commercial free.
Glad to see ya back.....how did it happen, do you know?
Has he been locked up yet?
I'd be carrying a firearm. This guy isn't right. If he approaches, take all appropriate action to defend yourself, because he's nuts!
My guess is that this slime sent various spam-like messages to madmammoth@[put major isp name here] until one didn't bounce. Then he proceeded to aim his tirade there. I would be surprised if any actual Internet espionage took place.
My $0.02 (i'd use a euro but i don't know how to enter the symbol)
Ping to #10.
So is he saying Hugo Aguilar is a part of VIPS?? LOL
It's a Kodak Neville Chamberlain moment.
Bump! Glad you're back.
"Well, well, well. Having listened to Mr. Johnson for years on various cable shows, nothing about this surprises me. His distorted view renders him incapable of rational, intelligent thought.
Besides that- he's pompous."
You'd be pompous too if you had served as a desk jockey in the CIA for less than four years twenty years ago.
It's an amazing feat, which makes you an expert on every matter in the world.
Those Larry's real forte seems to be treason.
I can't find the date of this interview, but it appears to be pre-9/11, even pre-USSCole attack. The World Trade Center "bombing" (apparently the first one, in 1992) is discussed in passing, but the main focus seems to be on the Nairobi embassy bombing.
Here's a quote from Johnson in which he appears to be downplaying the threat posed by Osama:
So, we recognize that [Osama's] the threat. He's serious about wanting to kill Americans, but as long as he's in Afghanistan, as long as he doesn't have access to a cell phone, as long as he can't just hop on a plane and travel wherever he wants without fear of being arrested, his ability to plan and conduct terrorist operations is extremely limited.
Shades of the "containment policy" leftists advocated for containing Saddam
