[history]
IT IS time to suspect the unthinkable and the suspicion is this: This city has been paralyzed by terrorists.
Terrorists working for a foreign organization that wants to destroy our country.
There are credible experts who believe that a war has been visited on our breakfast table.

the tarot card and the anthrax notes remind me of the cup-of-poisoned-wine scene in The Princess Bride. I haven't seen The Princess Bride. What is the story of this scene?

Both the police and the press have agreed to withhold the exact wording on the card and have amitted it.

Actually I am in complete agreement with you, that's why I said "ain't it the truth" in response to your post. I understood you perfectly.

I believe a number of children died in the Oklahoma City bombing. The Murrah building had a day-care center. That's true, but the day care center probably wasn't the target of the attack, and the bomber or bombers may not have even known about it. The 13 year old middle school kid was the target. Big difference in terms of motive and likely background of the guy behind the trigger.

That the handwritten note on the back of the tarot has been confirmed and then dropped below the radar. It was confirmed by Fox News reporter, and darn good one, Brian Wilson.
The more one delves into all the circumstances surrounding this, the more it fits almost the exact scenario before 9/11.
Suddenly INS and the FBI *lose* all info concerning whereabouts of Muslims on their watch list.
Suddenly, before the target shootings, the computer in MD which checks criminal backgrounds on people who buy firearms is *shut down* and no info is passed on to the FBI. $6.7 M just disappears, or so their excuse is. No bucks to run the searches. Duh?
Now we have one confirmation that Al Qaida is involved in this and more should be forthcoming. THIS confirmation came from Belgium.
If these alliances which we have every reason to believe have taken shape, not just here but elsewhere in the world, are proven to involve Al Qaida, Posse Comitatus goes bye-bye because we are dealing with a foreign enemy on American soil...even if American Muslims or supergod neonazis are involved. It is treason to take up arms for a foreign enemy, but the Islamic sympathizers will squeal like pigs.
As far as I am concerned, they should all meet their makers with equal dispatch. IOW, as quickly as possible.
That poor Chief of Police in Fairfax County was set up so blatantly, it is almost impossible to believe it wasn't planned. There's no doubt it added a ton of confusion if you don't have the whole background on this.
We need agents who can think out of the usual box. I still don't think they understand the kind of lunacy they are dealing with, and I have yet to hear one, single profiler who could rotate into an Al Qaida shoe. Islam is not logical, so all their textbooks and all their western logic can't fathom the evil that Jimmy Carter loosed upon an unsuspecting world and I often wonder to myself how the man can close his eyes at night.
Posse Comitatus Has the Posse outlived its purpose?
Craig T. Trebilcock
By virtue of the several statutory exceptions to the Posse Comitatus Act in the past decade, coupled with the general Constitutional authority of the President to preserve order, there are few areas of domestic law enforcement activity where the military is precluded from participating in times of national emergency or disaster. While the Posse Comitatus Act still serves a valuable function in deterring a lower level commander or politician from engaging in unauthorized "police" activity using military forces, the Act today provides little hindrance to the National Command Authority in executing civilian laws in times of emergency through military personnel. Through proper, legal declarations of Presidential emergency authority and/or through the use of National Guard assets in state status, it is increasingly likely that the military will play a significant enforcement role in response to domestic terrorism and other disasters for the foreseeable future.

...read the poison scene (battle of wits) Thanks for the link. I read the scene -- it's a good parable, with an ending that works. Needless to say, I hope it is not truly analogous to our current situation.

Maybe, maybe, lot's of maybes, I have a feeling we are going to find out very soon, although not soon enough. I just read ( forgot what site) that France has notified authorities here in the US that one of their expert marksman has gone AWOL since August and they said it is possible that this is our sniper. Hmmm, let's just hope and pray whoever it is we get him real fast.
To: kattracks
I agree and have said so since it started.
To: kattracks
Gee, ya think?
We're at a war and refuse to acknowledge that the enemy is ALL AROUND us, plotting how to kill us like dogs, young and old, black and white, male and female.
And, the only people losing their liberties are the born and bred.
Nice sham Checkpoint Charlie's the other night.
This isn't a war on terror and it's not going away until every single person that has ever sent money to muslim arab countries, had their passports and visas punched in those countries and goes to the same mosque as known terrorists have been questioned until they either help or decide supporting islamotrash isn't worth it.
Either that or we're going down the tubes as a nation and it's every man for himself.

Now why did you have to go and link the NRA to this crap?
You sound as bright as Katie Couric when you post drivel such as this.
Try reading his post again, this time adopting a sarcastic and self-deprecating tone.

I am 99.7% sure that this is Islamic Terrorism:
1. There appears to be a team involved-- serial killer teams are rare.
2. The use of military surveillance-- this is a first that I can remember.
3. 9-11. We are at war with Islamic Terrorists.
4. "Olive skinned", "not white, not black".
5. Shot a young boy at a school. Random acts with NO regard for human life.
6. Motive appears to be terror-- nothing else.
7. Unwillingness to release "profiling" info on suspect.
What else???
