There may be more terrorist acts, but, with the US and Britain raging, we're seeing just how cowardly these cretins are. They're turning on each other like rats, and nobody knows who to trust.
As for the cells in the United States, now that Americans know that AMERICAN CITIZENS are potential al-Qaeda, Muslims will be under concentrated scrutiny, not only from the FBI, but from ordinary citizens as well.
I'd hate to be a Muslim in America right now. Who knows when there might be a knock at the door?
...and that will turn out to be our best friend.
... Oh, excuse me, did I misquote you? Perhaps I did. And since I did, tell me, how did it feel to read that? And would you prefer that others get the same societal intimidation solely due to religion?
Whether or not authoritarian acts of the State are endorsed here -- and they too often are -- authoritarian mentalities are constantly encouraged, and few seem to perceive how truly unAmerican that is.
As for most of the rest of those posting above, the authorities actually nail someone, or some cell, and all you can do is gripe. Do you actually want this counteroffensive to succeed, or don't you? Make up your minds, at least.
Are you hinting at (don't tell a soul),
racial profiling?
Why should they be less fearful of being "profiled" than non-muslim Americans are of being attacked by radical muslims? Seems to me this goes to the "too fucking bad" category. Best the "peaceful" muslims pitch in to help clear out the problem that their brethren have brought to the civilized world. I have no sympathy for them whatsoever.
