One small correction, since no one else has brought it up yet. In her first post on this subject, girlangler said.....
I talked to a Nashville police department "security and threat" section Lt. today and he told me he received an alert that some ME men had tried to purchase cell phones at a Dollar Store in Memphis area.
The attempted purchase was in Memphis, not Nashville. This puts a light on what their intended target could be, especially knowing the Mackinac Bridge was one of their targets up North.
Blowing up the I-40 bridge would cause disruption in moving goods East and West.........North and South, too, come to think of it, since the Mississippi River would be blocked.
Affecting our economy is one result they hope to achieve, and this would definitely have an effect for a while.
Just my two-cents worth. :-)
This thread has given us a good look at something the LSM has chosen to ignore. At least some of us won't be caught off guard.

After receiving the phones from the buyers, often in bulk shipments, the middlemen deactivate a software lock on the devices so they can be used on other cellular services. The phones are then repackaged and shipped to their next destination, records show.
