Good reporting by JJ.

I believe the man heard what he heard. I also believe if there as a plan for terror in Las Vegas, that his prompt action and publicizing of it could well pervent it now.

We'll never know for sure (unless, God forbid, they carry it out), but this man did his duty IMHO and I will not critisize him for it whether what he heard happens or not.

FRegards.

June 20: George Knapp of Channel 3 interviews Hamdan at 11:00 am in front of Treasure Island

Don't believe a word the Arabs said about July 4, that was a ruse.

Look out freepers, they're coming for us at FRIVA Las Vegas. That's right, gunfight in the OK Casino.

Cynthia McKinney tipped 'em off after all the flaming she's been getting here.

The FBI has never called me back either! I had some info to give them back in December, but they really don't care at all. Imagine if I had bin laden camping in my backyard? The foolish FBI is completely in disarray. They should take reports from Arabic-speaking folks even more seriously. I just don't get it.

I saw an interview with Hamdan on Hannity and Colmes last night.
He seemed very credible...

Yes, I expected him to sound like a total whack job. But he was very calm and reasonable.

I don't get it. With the FBI in the proverbial hotseat right now with respect to ignoring pre-911 warnings, why did they treat this so lightly? This story seems all the more credible because Hamdan has nothing to gain by fabricating the overhead message. For that matter, he is drawing attention and possible danger to himself and his family. Sheesh, I guess I don't want to admit to myself that the FBI is really this incompetent.

This is one of the strangest stories yet. The guy seems credible, but what is up with the FBI? Are they running a disinformation campaign or are they all truly incompetant? I pray it's the former, but fear it's the latter.

Millions, possible billions of dollars in hotel rentals, entertainment tickets, cab fares, air fares, and of course those dice and cards hitting those felt covered tables.

You're probably right in saying "follow the money", but that statement sure isn't going to subdue the grief following a terrorist attack or appease the masses after a congressional hearing. What have we become?
