That's a good point except it's not scheduled to begin until around October. Meanwhile in NYC they have pulled the National Guard from the bridges and tunnels and cancelled the fly-overs.
Perhaps that is also because of intelligence. Or, on the other hand, it may be a ruse to see who is going to try to make an attempt. Or maybe they haven't cancelled everything.
During war, the information is not reliable. I still say that we need this command for a couple of reasons: Iraq and China.
I am interested also in the fact that it covers Mexico and the Caribbean. Guess what's in the Caribbean? CUBA.
