The FBI is conducting more than 150 separate investigations into groups and individuals in the United States with possible ties to Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda organization, according to senior U.S. officials.

The domestic targets include dozens of people who are under electronic surveillance through national security warrants, and others who are being watched by undercover agents attempting to learn more about their activities and associates, officials said.

How can you feel better when the enemy is in the gates? Given that "moderate" is not a word that belongs in the same sentence as Islam, I will not feel better until they are all out of here. They have no business in this nation, they will never be anything but trouble on a grand scale.

Our feel good fuzzy diversity freaks have finally run into the wall and hit upon something far too diverse, dangerous, and violent to ever co-exist with any other group of humans.

They don't need to do that. Islam is a peaceful, loving religion.

I would not be surprised that one exists in the house across the street but I don't know what to do about it!

Indeed they are...

Here's a happy thought from Middle East expert Daniel Pipes:

    Islamists constitute a small but significant minority of Muslims, perhaps 10 to 15 per cent of the
    population. Many of them are peaceable in appearance, but they all must be considered
    potential killers.

How does 400,000 to 800,000 -- in our country -- potential killers sound?

The way these animals operate, I see no reason whatsoever to investigate them. If any single one has anything whatsoever to do with Al Qaeda they should be killed.

Their only purpose in life is to slaughter as many of us as they possibly can, men, women or childrem.

I just finished watching that video of those sick, evil bastards slowly cutting a live Russian soldiers head off while he gurgled in agony.

If Bush or anyone else thinks that a simple tactical military victory will be enough to stop these devil worshippers, they're very sadly mistaken and have no clue as how to deal with such a devolved and animalistic mentality.

"Bringing them to justice" accomplishes very little besides taking the player that was "brought to justice" out of the picture. There are literally millions waiting to take their place.

We can't rest until we wipe al quaeda and militant islam off the face of the earth, not just out of the U.S or out of Western civilization.

I just watched a .mov taken from some of those tapes recently found that al quaeda had in their caves. The one I saw was where they sadistically, insanely, beheaded a helpless Russian with a knife.

It's sickening that anyone on G*D's Earth could do that to another human being. Those militant islamists aren't anything but rabid, wild, animals needing to be exterminated to protect civilization.

That's the same one I watched, where they cut that Russian's head off. Truly horrifying.

I saw it early this morn and then went to lay down because I felt like fainting after I saw it. No blame to the poster of the link, he gave clear and fair warning. I just wasn't expecting it to be quite as horrifying as it was.

My G*D! The sickening, insane, inhumanity of those filthy, sadistic animals! May they die in pain and burn in the deepest pits of hell for eternity.

How about the narrator calmly talking in the background as if he's on the Discovery channel.

This is just a small glimpse into their actions that happend to be caught on tape. Remember the reporters that were skinned alive? How about the flight attendant that had her throat cut from ear to ear and left to bleed to death after having her wrists bound with metal wire.

I also remember the pics of those two Israeli soldiers who were beaten into hunks of meat.

There is something very seriously disturbing about Arab muslem's mentallity. If their "religion" and societal ethos allows them to act as such, we have a huge problem on our hands. There's is the only "religion" that scripturally compels the follower to kill non-believers and outsiders.

It's not a religion. It's a totalitarian, dictatorial, fascist political system / cult of personality that wraps itself in religion.

I agree, the 21st Century is no place for barbarians, they should have died out a couple of centuries ago. We should help them along to extinction.

I'm sure the terrorists appreciate this heads-up warning from the Washington Post.

The "feel better" part came only from the fact that they have some under surveillance.....that's all....otherwise I agree with you.

I thought the same thing when this was being discussed this morning on the news. I wonder why they are not all arrested instead of just being "watched?"
Why if they know they are terrorists are they being allowed to stay in this country?
These are the ones they know about, how many more are there that have blended in with society here as is their MO?
I am just so disgusted that they are still here, and it seems they are here to stay.
What is up with this? They are terrorists, arrest them, get them out of our neighborhoods.......yesterday!
