Won't make this too long here just throwing out an idea here. The cops were watching this pay phone booth yesterday. 2 illegal immigrants pull up to it and we know the rest of the story. I came up with a theory today that I wanted some opinions on. I am thinking that the 2 men a Mexican and a Guataemalen were probably very common user's of this pay phone. Most illegal immigrants resort to using calling cards to call their homeland and usually early in the morning or real late at night depending on the time change of their country to the U.S..
The sniper cell is obviously traveling in different cars here. Maybe having cased a particular route everywhere there are white vans. These guys are watched for a couple of days and he sees that they use this payphone and have a truck fitting the description. Remember calling cards come up or are traced back to the number of the company that issues the card. Only then can the company trace back to what phone booth a call is made from.
So the sniper cell leaves a message from that phone number days ago after the 6th or 7th shooting. The law finally gets the number down and the message from the tips line as calls 8 and 9 come in. The cell demands money for an offshore account. The law tells them we can't do that for you today.
Is it possible that the offshore account was blackmail or extortion to an account that would funnel much needed money to other cells or an organization that found the means to use this money for funding operations? Ala Al Qaeda which trained in these very things? Electronical terrorism...and a host of other things by use of computers and banks.
I truly believe we are in the next wave here and the color chart is still sitting at code 3. Truly showing how useless it is. Al Qaeda and its supporting groups have had its money stripped from them for the most part and choked off. Is this the new means of getting money? They most certainly trained for this. They most certainly made these threats on our childred over the last year. They have most certainly trained for Urban Terrorism.
We have seen the CNN videos captured from Afghanistan. We have been warned of these types of attacks and methods. Yet, our government is trying its best to distance itself from terrorism. They will not show a picture of the missing French soldier who specialized in sniping so to say.
A French terrorist you say? Well who is sitting and playing our government in VIRGINIA like a fiddle? Moussaoi...the 20th hi-jacker.
Still don't think it is terrorism or Al Qaeda related? Prove me wrong...or add to this thread. Explain to me why the accent and the spelling of these notes is screaming of coming from a foreigner not familiar with the English language.
Prove me wrong or give me a reason why it is not Al Qaeda or terrorism FreeRepublic.com.
Why do I feel as if this country is protecting a certain group of people in this country right now because if the truth came out...the government would lose control of the population and the rest of the population would take matters into their own hands.
God how could we ever do that? Actually fight the war on terror on the home front.
Just do what they tell ya.
Agreed. Most people that commit crimes get caught too. It doesn’t take “most people;” it takes roughly one in 280-something million to cause a problem like this. That’s not most.
I’d guess that it is an American. A homegrown middle-upper-class nut that is doing this for unknown reasons. It’s just a guess though. Hopefully he has an aneurism or something right about now… meanwhile he’ll probably outlive the both of us at our expense. How’s that for irony?
None.
I understand. I'll bet you a somewhat tarnished Canadian quarter (that I haven't been able to get rid of for 10 years, no matter how hard I try) that it is an American...
Another excellent find. Excellent and my theory is starting to be supported by bits and pieces here.
MKM
A white van at any of the locations will trigger an alert, and a swarm of agents which are already stationed up and down I-95.
I'm not sure I buy that one. I think he/she simply drives around the block, parks the car, then goes shopping until the ruckus dies down.
Also, I think the "I am God" statement identifies the sniper as a liberal DemocrRAT. Probably from New York or New Jersey...
It's hard to speculate with the fragmented tidbits of information we're getting. Whoever it is I am praying for the day that justice served to him/them.
The people are to arm themselves, the government is to let them. See second article of amendment, Constitution for the United States, and most state constitutions as well. (Virginia for example, but not Maryland)
