Obama Faces High Risk of Terrorist Attack

From now through Barack Obama’s first year in office, the U.S. is at “high risk” of a terrorist attack, David Trulio, the former executive secretary of the White House’s Homeland Security Council, tells Newsmax.

In a wide-ranging interview about national security challenges Obama will face as president, Trulio warns, “Right now, this post-election, pre-inauguration period constitutes a period of high risk of attack, as does Inauguration Day and the first year of President Obama’s term.

"Terrorists may very well view America’s transition to a new administration as a chance to embarrass us, to test us, to weaken us, and to try to change the course of our policies.”

As executive secretary, Trulio was a special assistant to President Bush and Security Council chief of staff, which includes the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the FBI, the Defense Department, and the Department of Homeland Security. He left the White House in July.

Trulio notes that an attack in coming months could be carried out by al-Qaida or by terrorists inspired by Osama bin Laden.

“It’s worth remembering that the 1993 World Trade Center bombing took place in the first year of President Clinton’s term,” Trulio says. “And of course, the 9/11 attacks took place in the first year of President George W. Bush’s first term. In addition, in Gordon Brown’s first few days as prime minister in the U.K., two car bombs were discovered in central London, and the Glasgow airport came under attack.

I think you may be correct...a “soft attack” from within which is even more dangerous.
I wonder how many of us are going to “delete” people from our address lists. family and friends, who voted for this monster/ I am close to than now as I am so damn mad at what they have done to this country simply because they were too lazy to read or do any research before casting that all too important ballot.
When is the media going to start talking about 0bama’s bill that he introduced a year ago in Dec concerning world poverty?

Scary part is that the Islamic terrorists hate him for the simple fact he is considered a Muslim yet he converted.

In reality, loyalty is not one of Obama's best traits. He says he converted but he probably uses religion as a means to an end like he uses people. But you're right how that would be offensive to die hard Muslims.

...at first I thought that “deleting” people from my life because of their vote was ridiculous. Now, I too am so angry that we have people in our neighborhood who I can’t stand the sight of because of their BO vote. Pi$$es me off to no end!! There’s nothing left to say to them. Some want to argue, but what’s left to argue about? The damage is done.

I’m sure the scumbag Emanuel won’t let that crisis go to waste!

Yeah like "We've just suffered a nuclear attack on NYC and San Francisco!! President Obama, here's the bill to take assault weapons off the street that will fix that."

Actually one NUDET and I expect Obama will simply declare martial law and attempt to rule by fiat.

If we aren't all rounded up and re-educated at

Camp Obama

it should provide endless opportunities to hector, catcall, and kibitz from the sidelines.

I hope the MoonBats enjoy having Duh!1© ( AKA, The New Little Big Fraud©... ) at the helm. It's going to be quite a ride...

This guy really is Bad News.

As I have mentioned here:

OBAMAO ... is America ready for a Marxist president? [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

Nope, but we are about to get one, good & hard...

...so chroniclers like Yours Truly will be documenting every move he makes, every breath he takes... unless, or until, we are silenced by all that "tolerance & inclusiveness" he & his followers are already practicing.... ( "we in charge now" )

I'll keep doing it as long as there's something to say- or until we are silenced.

As far as I am able, I will mirror this on our Canadian sister site, which has been moved to Panama due to censorship issues:
