Americans are uncertain what to think. Since the events following September 11, many citizens have remained glued to the major new networks, wondering what will happen next. It seems the greatest concern is a chemical or biological attack in a major city, such as New York or Washington.
In days past, most American’s would have ignored any warning of such an assault. Now, all American’s are concerned about the possibilities. Should there be a concern that such a terrorist attack is possible?
If one listens to all the talking heads on the news channels, the facts and possibilities are confusing. One person states, “America is ready for a biological and chemical attack”, while another despairingly comments, “America is in no way ready for such an attack”. Another specialist believes the substances for such a terrible assault are already in the hands of a few in the nation, while another says he in no way believes the “sleepers” in America have such abilities.
Others have stated they do not believe Osama bin Laden has any ability to produce such materials.
Recently on the 700 Club, Pat Robertson obtained a series of satellite pictures showing the inside of Afghanistan. Not far from the border of Pakistan, a close-up of terrorist camps revealed a mound with a smoke stack. Not far from the smoke stack was a building. The specialist reading the satellite map indicated the area of the smoke stack appeared to be similar to a place where chemical and biological substances were being made and the other building was where they were being tested on animals. The moment this statement was made, the television screen went blank and a sign came on stating that the video feed was interrupted. The 700 Club stayed off the air until the program was over, then oddly, the regular programming returned without interruption. I immediately thought that someone interrupted the satellite feed due to information that was being released. At this point, I have not heard of one secular media agency that had reported anything related to chemical or biological possibilities connected to the training camps in Afghanistan.
I received a call that a “gag order” was placed on all persons working in high positions inside the Federal Government Agencies. There are things that have happened and things that have been planned of, which high positioned federal workers are not to speak about to anyone, not even their closest family members.
I can certainly understand the silence. First of all, the government must separate fact from rumor. Often the media hypes up a possible situation and could create panic and fear in the hearts of viewers.
No doubt these are the “perilous times” warned of in scriptures. Our personal faith must be strong and we must seize the opportunity to minister to those near us, who are fearful of the future. I have often said, “You cannot threaten a Christian with dying and going to heaven.” As Paul said, “To live is Christ but to die is gain.”
These are exciting times!

These are exciting times!
But why are some of the self assured so anxious for the latter? Is the 'rapture' only reserved for them?
Hmmm...you think we'll be aiming for that smoke stack? I hope so. I hope the missile that hits that, hits a camel in the butt, as well. We might as well put the camel down. It would probably be the humane thing to do after hitting that hut.
Years later I saw the movie in a late-night re-run. But so much time passed, I'm sure they fabricated another ending to cover up what really happened.

A guy in the sands of Afghaistan all by himself is not planning the end of our lives!
Bin Laden has a whole lot of help, all over the world!
Of course he has bios and chems!
Of course he will use them against us here!
Defend the homeland!
Absolutely. And Robertson is now muzzled, I am sure. It was not wise to put that on the air. It reveals too much about how we are searching for facilities, etc.
