It seems to me that DC Suburbanites aren't all that symbolic of American power to a ME Terrorist.

Perhaps. But they might enjoy the fact that the latest shooting is about 4 miles from Colin Powell's residence.

It should also be pointed out that these shootings are affecting the families who work at a MYRIAD of US government offices. The shooting itself is about four miles from the CIA. It is near the old DCA (defense communications agency), and the Pentagon. This is not some coincidence that this ring of terror is being targeted at the residential areas for most of the people (with the exception of Capitol Hill) who work in the US federal government infrastructure, including the areas near homes/schools/gas stations/shopping centers used by families of or of US Senators, Congressmen, FBI agents, members of the supreme court, Pentagon workers, White House workers, Hill staffers, etc.

I would expect already that foreign media see this and can interpret this from a distance. However, domestically, the element of this being terrorism is still, for many in the liberal press, and officialdom, the 800 pound gorilla in the corner nobody wants to talk about.

I am sure police scanners and alert Freepers will alert us to the contrary of what we are getting in briefings and news coverage.
