Ya, maybe....

How long have we been hearing about threats? I hope to God I am wrong, but, what if I am not?

I think it is quite sad I got this gut feeling, but I got it from somewhere...

All these threat stories ae now in our subconscious. I saw Mort Kondracke make the statement about the ashen look of the pols after they were briefed recently. Here is an earlier story. - tom

U.S. senators warned of al Qaeda snipers on golf courses Friday, October 18, 2002

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- U.S. senators were warned earlier this week that those who play golf may be targets of al Qaeda snipers on golf courses and were given tips on how to protect themselves, a U.S. Capitol Police spokeswoman said.

Police were notified about the potential threat to senators, said Marcia Krug, a Capitol Police spokeswoman. She would not say which agency notified the Capitol Police or when exactly they were told.

But she said her department, in turn, notified the sergeant-at-arms, who then notified the senators that al Qaeda snipers might be looming near golf courses, ready to pick them off.

The sergeant-at-arms, who is in charge of lawmakers' security, did suggest precautions the senators should take, Krug said. She would not elaborate.

I am afraid you are not wrong.

News just on Debka ( while people may doubt some things they say, but when they report actual events, they are pretty accurate):

"Israel investigating three barrels found in home of senior Hamas operative Nidal Farkhat suspecting they may be filled with poison chemicals for remote-controlled model plane to spray inside Israel.

Earlier Sunday, Farkhat and five other Hamas terrorists were killed in car explosion in Al-Zeitun district of Gaza City, while assembling model aircraft and loading it with explosives."

This sounds like similar plan to what we read in this article about filling UAV-s with poison chemicals and releasing them over major cities.
