USA Bio-Attack 'In Days'

 'Traitor' John Walker USA Bio-Attack 'In Days'

An American who fought for the Taliban has warned of a biological terror attack on the US in the next few days.

John Walker, captured after a prison uprising in Afghanistan, told US officials of the impending attack during intelligence briefings near Kandahar.

'Phase Two'

He said "Phase Two" of al Qaeda's war on America would occur at the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, The Washington Times reported. Ramadan ends on Sunday.

The third phase of al Qaeda's war would result in the total destruction of the United States - the first phase happened on September 11, it is claimed.

But officials have questioned the credibility of his claims because of his apparent low-level status within the Taliban, loosely linked with al Qaeda.

Treason

Walker, who was captured after al Qaeda and Taliban fighters revolted at a fort neat Mazar-e-Sharif, could be charged with treason.

The US Central Command has said he is being treated as an enemy prisoner of war.

He converted from Catholicism to Islam when he was 16, before making a pilgrimage to the Middle East and eventually volunteering to fight with the Afghan regime.

The FBI has issued several warnings of impending terrorist threats on America, putting law enforcement agencies on the highest possible state of alert.

No. I appreciate Fox News "fair and balanced" reporting, but I do get a little peeved when Shep scares the XXXX out of me by making me think this was just coughed up by Jihad Johny

Yeah, Kermit, that's the whole point. Shep Smith quoted this story as if it was breaking news without so much as suggesting these claims of a 2nd and 3 wave of attacks from Jihad John were over a year old!

They pull it off we nuke mecca.

Why?
Mecca is neither a military or financial target.

Who is your "we?"
Your peaceful religions attempt to highjack our (American) war, doesn't wash.

I have no problem with nuking valid targets,
if that would be in the best interest of our nation.
I'm not interested in your intra-cult squabbles.

Not to worry, Guns and Ammo is published in a former missile silo hardened to withstand anything but a direct nuclear hit. Sleep easy, your Guns and Ammo will still around by Pony Express.;^)

I thought maybe that's what you getting at but I wasn't sure. What I heard on FOX yesterday was (and I can't remember if it was Shep Smith reporting) that Walker had said that he was told by a "senior Al Queda commander" that there would be three phases of attacks. The first being bad, the second being so bad, Americans would forget the first. And the final would bring America to her knees. So, I was kind of listening all day for more info but none came. I got the impression it was new but who knows?
