DJ FBI/Terror Alert -2: Attack May Come Early As Tuesday

WASHINGTON (AP)--The FBI issued an extraordinary terrorist alert Monday night, asking law enforcement and the American public to be on the lookout for a Yemeni man and several associates who might be plotting a terrorist attack as early as Tuesday.

The FBI scrambled to put the warning out after information emerged that one or more people were involved. Officials said the intelligence, while deemed credible, was not specific about possible targets.

The alert identified one possible attacker as Fawaz Wahya al-Rabeei, a Yemeni national born in Saudia Arabia in 1979. It listed about a dozen associates of al-Rabeei.

I'm taking a business trip via airline very soon. I pity the fool who wants to pull something on that flight. I'm ready to pummel, but that's nothing compared to my travel mate. This guy was in the Marines and he once stopped a mugging (his own) at gunpoint. I'll follow his lead.

That's all well and good, as long he doesn't use you as a blunt object to beat the hi-jackers about the head and shoulders with! I'm joking, of course, but I HAVE seen it done before.

Say,that looks like one of the many Crazy White Boys the county judge put on probation a few years ago.

Don't panic... don't give them the satisfaction of changing your lifestyle... and for your children's sake, don't let the children see you panic, either... let them see you be strong, yet cautious and aware of your surroundings... just some unsolicited advice from one parent to another :0) Chin up!

Sheesh - I couldn't find anything at the FBI homepage, but they are looking for these guys.

They are so nebulous and come so often that they have gotten to be funny.

This time there's a name but no picture.
There is no named potential target. The info hasn't even been posted on the FBI website yet.
I'm willing to take it seriously if they put it together and issue the alert in a serious manner.

Faker Boussora

Anyone know how to pronounce this Faker's name???? ;0)

How come I can't find anything like this on the FBI's website?

[small voice in the wilderness]

you can bet that our intrepid airport screeners will pay special attention to 85 year old white old ladies in order to ensure that they are not accused of "racial profiling."

"Hey, Frank, whatta'make of that group of men wearing the "Yemeni, Love It or Leave It" t-shirts? What's up with that, anyway?"

"Dunno, I think it's some town outside of Jersey City. Hey, look at that group of nuns. Whatta' ya think, anyway? Let's just give the once over. Ya never know...."

[P-Marlowe]

No Bashing of this guy. He's on the list of protected classes of people that can't be bashed here on FR. And if we find out what religion he is a member of, then we can't go into any diatribe about how that religion is evil, even if EVERY SINGLE TERRORIST WHO HAS ATTACKED AMERICA HAS BEEN A MEMBER OF THAT RELIGION.

We must instead remember that his religion is a RELIGION OF PEACE, and that of the Billion people who claim to be members of this religion, there are at least 100 or 200 or so who actually and honestly think it was a bad idea to fly planes into buildings full of innocent women and children.

So, let us remember that we can't blame the doctrines of this guy's religion for the actions of a few hundred million extremists like him, even if the holy scriptures that they subscribe to tell them it is a wonderful thing to do and that their God will reward them greatly for their actions.

Let's all play by the rules.

"I'm willing to take it seriously if they put it together and issue the alert in a serious manner."

But on the other hand, maybe this "scramble" to get the information out before it's polished is even MORE ominous.

New checkpoint procedure noticed in Salt Lake City:

The Secret Service has ordered that all checkpoints be equipped with BBQ Babyback pork ribs. Anyone who desires to enter into a "protected area" must consume at least three ribs, and drink some apricot juice.

The purpose of the pork is obvious, but the apricot juice - or what purports to be apricot juice - is not yet known.

Drudge is now investigating.
