Something I Noticed This Morning (Vanity)

I was watching ABC this morning (I know, baaad freeper, baaaad) and noticed something about who was covering the Sniper Saga. While ABC, along with all the other major outlets, has eschewed a connection with terrorism, the correspondent for the story was John Miller. Osama's ABC contact, and general follower of the terrorism scene.
Am I seeing too much here, or are is ABC positioning itself for possible "discoveries" of terrorist links?

Good catch. We'll have to watch that in the days ahead.

Maybe someone over there has been reading the treads here on it for the last week...

Don't know about ABC-TV, but there are sniper attacks against our troops in Kuwait and sniper attacks against civilians in the metro DC area.

Something I noticed this morning, was that the butter was not completely melted on my toast.
I hate that.

I've lost count. How many of these attacks have been set at gas stations? And how many involved drivers or passengers of large, gas-guzzling vehicles?
Could this be anti-growth terrorism?
To: Frank_Discussion
I just emailed FOX News and asked them to do the fololowing:
Please ask the numerous profilers who say terrorism is not possible because terrorists always take credit, the following question:
Why didn't anyone take immediate credit for the WTC attack?
The same for Bali and the tanker bombing off Yemen?

Re: The sniper attacks in MD. It would be wise for everyone to keep an open mind as to who the person or persons responsible are at least until we get somne hard evidence ruling in our out certain groups. Right now there is no hard evidence as to the identities of the perps.

Loan kooks don't operate in pairs. If the "sniper" is really a team, it's not a loan kook.
The Tarot card is the only thing arguing against an Islamic terrorist. But Tarot cards are well known in the Islamic world, and a card with a message on it could be just that: a message.
It appears English was the writer's second language. "I am God" could be sacrilege, or could be an attempt to say the writer is doing God's will.
The bottom line is still that lone nut cases do not operate in teams. If this was/is done by a team, then it is 99% certain to be Islamic terrorism.

No one seems to ask why the sniper "doesn't work weekends." It appears that the shooter should be called "The 9-5 Weekday Sniper." More important, perhaps the sniper is NOT AVAILABLE on weekends or he has other things to do, like league bowling or turban-weaving classes.

You are quite correct, and I didn't specify. I certainly meant the DC-area stuff, but certainly did NOT mean any disrespect to our troops.
The Bass-turds firing our forces in Kuwait, I hope they are eliminated soon.

Please let us know what response you get, if any. It's an excellent question.

In answer to your discussion of nutcases I will merely point out keebold and Harris. In fact psychos do sometimes associate but usually there is some degradation in each individual's operational effectiveness and a much higher probability of one of the two (or occaisionally more) to talk.
However, at this point it is impossible to rule out pschos are us supplying the shooter and/or driver

20/20 is doing the entire program tonight on 'Tracking the Serial Sniper' hosted by John Miller. Why Miller is doing it is something up for discussion...think it is pretty obvious to a lot of us though...

Not a profiler, but Fox & Friends did this morning ask Michelle Malkin, why, if it was Terrorists, have they not taken credit.
She said: Because they are not done yet.

To say "I am God" can easily be a sign of disrespect for God. To kill in God's name is definitely a sign of disrespect because it equates God to terrorism.

Do muslims have a sabbath? If so, is it over the weekend? Perhaps they're standing down to honor Allah.
