These guys are obsessed with the July 4 weekend..

[Principled]

Find them.

Kill them.

Restore our liberties.

[Marcus_Vipsanius_Agrippa]

Of course. It celebrates the birth of an enormously successful country.


Also, it celebrates a document whose language is enormously threatening to the small-minded fools who make up what's left of 'al-quaeda.'

All your bar-b-que is belong to us. Please to no pork, however.

You know, just having 1 or 2 suspected terrorists mention an attack and a holiday, even if there is no such "plan", and the gov't and people start altering plans, increasing security, costs increase, and fewer people attend celebrations out of fear (misplaced or not). And with just a few words, they win another small victory.

I want to read the FBI have grabbed these guys up, transferred them to guantanamo, and are vigorously interrogating these b@st@rds. I know cometimes it's best to leave them in place, but I'm sick of reading that we know where some are and are leaving them in play. {/vent}

Aw freaking great! I'm flying into Dallas the evening of the 4th!

I hope there are no idiots on my flight, I might be apt to "over-react" a little bit.

Terrorists Possibly Targeting Texas...

Nothing new about that.

We have Nicaragua, soon we will have El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Mexico. One day, tomorrow or five years or fifteen years from now, we're going to take 5 to 10 million Mexicans and they are going into Dallas, into El Paso, into Houston, into New Mexico, into San Diego, and each one will have embedded in his mind the idea of killing ten Americans."

--Thomas Borge, Nicaragua Interior Minister as quoted in the Washington Times, March 27, 1985

I am not saying this is not credible information but Ummmm - I am still waiting for the Memorial day attack, the Veterans day attack, the Christmas attack, The Thanksgiving attack, the Labor day attack! I am getting tired of these people threatening every holiday we have so we can squirm on that day.

[appalachian_dweller]

Maybe they'll try to blow up the harbor by just sailing one of those explosive laiden ships in. Just trying to try it in, get the big picture.

BBQ Ham on the 4th? Baked beans w/ plenty of bacon? That and cold brew sound like a plan.

[marshmallow]

What a load of BS. Like these guys are going to be yakking to each other in internet chat rooms about upcoming attacks with all the surveillance and eavesdropping now taking place.

These guys know how to yank our chain. One of their successes with 9/11 was that it built up a huge amount of capital, which they can spend at leisure for a considerable time afterwards. All they need to do is pick up a phone or go online, utter a few key phrases and then sit back and watch the Americans run around like headless chickens, raising their alert level to orange for the umpteenth time.

You don't mess with Texas!

[scott7278]

"...a possible Al Qaeda operative known as 'Sakr' told another person during an Internet Chat Room conversation that an attack had been planned for a long time, and that terrorists inside the United States were waiting for approval from a man dubbed 'The Sheik' before striking in early July."

Time to find the sheik!

[Tacis]

Of course Texas is a terrorist target!! The Saudi and Aeab terrorists have been resting/training in Cuba. It is an easy trip to Meixco where the authorities, with a little cash, will escort them and their equipment to or, even, over, the border.

The first targets are there and easy: San Antonio, El Paso, Austin, Houston, or, up Rte. 35 to Dallas or Ft. Worth. Think of all the military bases.

It is criminal that the border has not been sealed. 800,000 illegal aliens and 200 tins of dope will come north across that border every year. We could defend ourselves and prevent that traffic and the terrorists but, for some very strange reason, won't. SEAL THE BORDER!!!

[ConservativeLawyer]

Stay safe this 4th!

[mhking]

waiting for approval from a man dubbed 'The Sheik' before striking in early July.

Oops. Wrong sheik.

[Semper Paratus]

Maybe they'll try to reprise the Port of Galveston blast with a cargo ship.

[adam_az]

LET THEM EAT PORK!

[lilsparky]

Color scheme for 4th of July Bar-b-ques? Red, white, blue....and probably orange....again.

[showme_the_Glory]

BBQ Chicken and Pork at Ardmore, OK. Kill 2 birds with one cook-out. (Texas Dems will probably be out of state for the 4th)
