Tom Ridge, put away the fabric swatches for your new Homeland Security HQ and forget about revamping the color codes. You have a real job to do. Stop containerized terrorism. Protect the borders!

Yes, I've been hearing this too, the 3 ports were Savannah, Miami, and Long Beach. There will be an official announcement, I think the reporter said, tomorrow, when more will be revealed.

This is BS...how did they know they were terrorists...how did they know how many...if they knew it why did they let them in. This sounds really silly. I have heard these type things before but it never pans out to be anything. Whatever...

Fox News is reporting that 25 Islamic Radical terrorists have entered the country since March, as stowaways on cargo vessels of major carriers, docking in Miami, California, and I believe Virginia. They will brief law enforcement officials tomorrow in a classified briefing about the reliability of their information.

Ah, Free Trade, don't you love it!

As long as we continue on business as usual, this sort of success will continue.

In the meantime, we confiscate knitting needles from 80 year old grandmothers, strip search 6 year olds and continue to issue terrorist-country visas by the thousands. Can't do any profiling here, can we? Might upset the Left!

If we had taken steps since Sept 11th to round up and deport the millions of illegal aliens still meandering blissfully around this country, these guys would have a lot harder time hiding out today and people would be a lot less likely to shelter them if they knew they faced jail time. Why, even our local law-enforcement is not even allowed to do anything about known illegal aliens except notify the inept INS who then obligingly turn them loose.

We richly deserve to reap what we have sown for our corporate stupidity and inability to prosecute anything but a politially correct "war".

But fear not, dear friends. When our casualties approach a million or so dead, a few of our cities are uninhabitable forever, and our wealth losses are deep in the trillions of dollars - then, and only then, will we get serious! Hopefully, it won't be too late to save this country for real.

Did they happen to mention how many "stowaways" or illegals enter this country aboard cargo vessels each and every year? I'll bet INS doesn't want that LARGE number coming to light. These ports are sieves.

Let's calm down and think strategically. If there are 25 folks in the US and waiting until July 4th to do some damage at a pre-determined target, then we can analyze that.

They will need money. They will need a vehicle. They will need a place to stay out of site. They will also need things to attack with. All of this means that either they need to meet up with a hidden sleeper cell within the US or they need to contact someone who will wire them a lot of money, that they can get their hands on.

Based on all the questionings and immigration detentions that have occured, most of the high probability sleeper cells have probably been disrupted or know that they will be found out quickly if they help out in any kind of attack planning. This means that the FBI, might get a tip from a cell participant or the terrorists will be denied help.

OK, so do the terroist stowaways, just go down to Western Union and wait for their wire transfer? No, and the US government has really cracked down on a lot of phoney money movement schemes, so there is a good chance these guys might get caught trying to get money from an outside source. I have some personal experience recently that even bank fraud schemes to get money are being investigated at a very high level.

There may or may not be some terroists in the Country, but people are much more alert now and the methods of funding them that have been used in the past are drying up quickly.

This means that any terrorists will likely draw attension to themselves sooner. Hopefully with good police work, this will result in their capture before they do any harm. Remember that the last time the police had many of the terrorists in their hands, but let them go. Hopefully this time, they won't let suspects go as quickly
