LARRY Johnson, former CIA agent, former State Department agent, said loudly and clearly: "At the end of the day, we have to give some credence that there is a terrorist threat."

Johnson was responding to the fact that the Montgomery monster's latest hit was grimly performed by two human beings in that now well-known white panel van - facts that might well suggest a terrorist attack.

Yeah, it's amazing the amount of information we generate and gather here, not to mention the interesting BS.

Personally, when I was in the military, if it had a ski-mask it was a target.

You are right, SWAT team members wear balaclavas and have goggles and helmets on. Not to mention body armor in full evidence. And there's usually more than one or two there, in a line making a 'body bunker' right before doing a forced entry and tossing of the flash-bang.

Hope you are the one who is correct here. The other alternative is just too horrible to think about. I tend to think it COULD be terrorism (Jihad), but am hoping it isn't.

Shut down the country? I don't think that would happen.

If this were to start happening all over the country, it would certainly go a long way toward shutting us down. I agree it wouldn't entirely, but think about it, would people want to be out shopping etc.? The implications for the effect on the economy are endless.

If you had a son, father or husband who was one of them, you wouldn't want them showing their face on TV or in public.

Ignore the rocket scientist.
He/she seems unaware that terrorists love to go after LEO families...

Ignorance and feel-goodism just go hand in hand...

Some mentioned on FOX news, yesterday, that the sniper seems to be reinacting scenes or themes from old movies. I just thought of "Enemy at the Gate". The sharpshooter in the movie terrorized the German army and ultimately defeated them.

Errr, no, it was the Soviet Army that defeated the German army. With a lot of assistance from the Brits and the Yanks, who kept the Russkis supplied with trucks, food, and other necessary stuff.

I was talking about the movie. The Soviet sharpshooter in the movie was more or less soley responsible for terrorizing the German Army and keeping them off kilter so that they could be defeated. The American and British were not even mentioned in the movie.

I believe that the term "kuffir" literally means "dust" and that is what Americans are to the jihadis. The jihading maniacs should be defeated "by any means necessary" if it comes to it.

bombing in bali, bombing in finland, marines killed in the phillipines, french oil tanker bombed,and sniper killings all in the same time frame....doesn't seem like a coincidence. It's Al Queda MO to strike at the same time in different locations.
