Sounds like jihadis to me.

With the terrifying spree nearly two weeks old, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld agreed Tuesday evening to provide military surveillance aircraft in the hunt for the killer, a Pentagon spokesman said.

I think they were noticed because they WANTED to be noticed. They wanted it clear that this is a terrorist incident.

[Dante3]

Me too!

How do we know that this sniper is the same as the others?

His M.O appears quite different. Further, while it is a possibility that the targeting of an FBI profiler could be random chance, it is also possible that this woman was wanted dead for some other reason, by other people.

I hope they nail these bastards...

I also hope no one uses that photo for a 'Caption this' thread...

another witness gave a description of a dark-skinned man, possibly Hispanic or Middle Eastern, in a white van.

Now we know why the Dept. of Defense is now interested.

So much for CNN's profile.

I think you are correct. I think the lack of information being released by the people running this investigation (and it ain't Chief Moose),has these guys angry. If they are not caught, they will get more and more brazen and violent.

The perps want the whole world to realise this is part of a Jihad, and they want credit for it.

Of course thats IMHO,; everyone else thinks its a lone white guy, who drinks to much beer, and lives in a trailer.

I agree. I've had the feeling that this one isn't connected since the moment it happened.

[Lyford]

the closest, most stark sighting yet by a witness who reported seeing the gunman step brazenly from his van...fire and then flee.

Do you suppose anyone in the media has the guts to ask Ms. Kennedy-Townsend whether the world would be a better place right now if that witness had been carrying a concealed weapon and knew how to use it?

If this is true then it is possible that this series of events is over.

If this was a terrorist event it may well have been a test of our defensive capabilities against this type of attack.

The US FAILED that test. This "War of the Suburbs" was fought within close proximity to our National Seat of Power.

If there was no shell-casing found at(or near)the crime scene,he probably isn't using a semi-auto.I have an H-Bar(AR15)and it kicks the empties out pretty hard.

If this is true then it is possible that this series of events is over.

Or they will move it somewhere else.

I've had the feeling that this one isn't connected since the moment it happened.

Tests have already confirmed that the same gun was used as in the other murders which left a bullet that could be analyzed.

Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean that thos perpetrator is the same person as before.
