President Bush just stated that 3 al Qaida plots to take place inside the United States were thwarted since 9/11.

Vel - do you think the report about OBL surfacing after the next attack in the US had anything to do with W's speech this morning? Maybe a major attack was thwarted recently (OU perhaps?)

I think this was an attack, but not a major attack by any stretch of the imagination. We're never going to hear about those! This one was likely locally orchestrated and locally executed in conjunction with the local mosque. I think when the President makes reference to major attacks, we're looking at a scale on par with 911 or at the very least, Madrid.

I don't think so.

It was mentioned that the President was going to give this speech last month, but postponed it due to the hurricane.
