I did a search for this list but did not find it under the words "120 cities"

FYI and speculation!

Psst...here's a secret...don't tell anyone.

If you live in the United States, and live somewhere near any city, or if you fly on airplanes, or ride on trains, or buses, or drive a car over a bridge or through a tunnel, you are at risk of a terrorist attack.

If you eat lots of bacon and eggs, you are at risk of a heart attack.

If you eat lots of beans...gas attack risk.

If you drive past a McDonalds...that's right, a Big Mac Attack.

Don't watch Fox...that's When Animals Attack.

And worrying about which cities are most at risk will put you at risk of an anxiety attack.

Please don't take this as a flame. Its not directed at you but at whoever would pull out an atlas and make a list of the most populous cities in each state and call it a list of cities at risk.

[Hank Rearden]

Looks to me like they just made a list of every significant city they could think of in those states.

"Be careful near big cities." Not helpful.

The bad guys and there stuff will come across the Mexican border and head up US 35 as far as the can go. No planes, few trains or busses. Stuff gets stored in those public storage places and the bad guys disappear into the local Muslim communities or leftist groups.

The correct list of cities actually tracks the major commercial freeways of the country. And, with our foolish refusal to seal the dangerous Mexican border, it is probably already too late.

Boy - if we all move at least 50 miles from the major cities, the tent makers will clean up. I wonder what kind of risk the "conclaves" will be under???

OK, NOW I'm pissed off at these terrorist!!!! No city in beautiful New Hampshire is worthy of attack? Surely, Manchester or Nashua are better than Portland, Oregon.

BLUE ZONE ALERT!...BLUE ZONE ALERT!...BLUE ZONE ALERT!...

No cities listed for Wyoming or Idaho. Good.

I find it pretty amusing that the threat for Michigan includes Warren (northern suburb of Detroit where GM Tech Center and US Army Tank Command is located) but not Dearborn (southern suburb of Detroit where Ford Motor and a gazillion Arabs are located).

OKay-

So when these "blue" counties get nuked and smallpoxed by Iraqi weapons, can we hold a new census early to replace the democratic Congressmen who no longer have constituents?

Better yet, can we arrange for the liberal/liar/democrat(but I repeat myself) Congressmen who are opposing action in the Mideast to BE in their districts when their people get killed?

So you're at risk if you live within 50 miles of one of these 120 cities, eh? Well, that pretty much covers at least 90% of the entire country, Sherlock. (Not you, Salvation, the author of this article.)

[Centurion2000]

Well this is going to get interesting.

[Arthalion]

Heh, it's quite funny to see my own hometown on that list. I somehow get the feeling that when the Islamofascists travel halfway around the world to set off a suitcase nuke and strike at the heart of the infidel, they'll find a better target than Modesto :\

History Book Test in 2025 reads: One Hunderd Twenty US Cities were destroyed by the Islamic Jihad was the complete unknown key to American Victory in the Ten Years Terrorism War and made the total collaspe of the Social Welfare States in Europe become more like the Asia and American. It was total destruction of the Democrat Voting base that allowed American to become united once again. Today the major political parties in the US are Repbulicans Right, Republicans Center, and the Greens:)

Terrorism is a real threat, to individuals.. the wrong person at the wrong place at the wrong time.. you can be dead. HOwever, in the greater scheme it is about more symbolic attacks than practical destruction. Look at their 9/11 attacks... Pentagon, WTC and likely Capitol Building. Pentagon was not going to be stopped by a plane, even its complete destruction would not stop the US military... so symbolic. Al Queda's own admittance they did not expect the WTC's to fall, only to be damaged, so the full economical effect of 9/11 was far greater than planned or expected by the terrorists, and the Capitol Building... this one if it had succeeded may have caused some serious political problems... but it is the only 1 of the 3 in my view that could have been anything more than political statement making.

There are so many simple ways terrorists could distrupt our economy or way of life... and I am almost certain none of these avenues are being explored. Because they won't cause spectacular press, or even large amounts of death, but would without question be economically and socially devastating. I won't mention any of them, no need to give out ideas.... but lets just say, while terrorism is a frightening prospect... like all ARAB military actions in the last 500 or more years... it won't have much overall impact and in its large scheme fail miserably.

Your search showed nothing because no one has "survinging" terrorism before! lol
