Maybe. My guess is he's asking for something that the cops don't want to make public.

Right now, the sniper is holding all the cards (no pun intended). As long as he is calling the shots, he is in complete control. And I'm willing to bet he get's off on that control. If you look at the pattern of shootings, they relate directly to the amount of information the media gets a hold of. The sniper is killing based on what the media is saying. He even asked the police not to contact the media on one of the cards.

Undoubtedly, there is more going on than we know.

I think there's a good chance they are asking for Ahmed Abdel-Rahman, the son of the blind sheik in federal prison for the 93 WTC bombing.

Terrorist Cleric's Son In Gitmo?

Ahmed Abdel-Rahman was captured in Afghanistan last month by anti-Taliban forces. Vice President Cheney has indicated he is likely to face a U.S. military commission.

Abdullah Abdel-Rahman said it appeared anti-Taliban forces had turned over all their prisoners to the United States. He said he had heard reports that his brother was in U.S. military detention at Guantanamo.

Members of Egypt's parliament have demanded the government report to the People's Assembly on nine alleged Egyptian Al Qaeda members, including the sheik's son, detained by the United States, the London-based pan-Arab newspaper Asharq al-Awsat reported.

Another son of the sheik, Mohamed Abdel-Rahman, was reported dead last month after he was wounded in the bombardment of Afghanistan's Tora Bora caves. U.S. officials believe the two sons, in Afghanistan since 1989, were senior members of Al Qaeda, the terror group led by Osama Bin Laden. But Abdullah Abdel-Rahman has denied that, saying the group his father led and to which his brothers belonged, al-Gamaa al-Islamiyya, had several differences with Al Qaeda.

I believe the message may have been something along the lines of "give the sheik back his only living son, or you will find out what it is to lose your children".

This would explain the feds' trip to Gitmo and the school closures. It is also typical of the MO of these groups.
