Tim,

I didn't see a word about your 1000 sleepers in the US, did I miss that part?

The vast majority of the "terrorists" (mostly common soldiers) mentioned in those articles are in the middle east. Many probably came, and then went back to their normal lives in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan, after fulfilling their supposed duty to participate in a higher level of Jihad in Afghanistan.

You need to be a lot more skeptical when you read sensational articles in the press. Remember Bosnia? Remember the reports of tens of thousands of people slaughtered? Remember the reports of the firemen in the SUV that were pulled alive from the rubble of the WTC? How about all the other post WTC reports that had no basis in fact.

The press is unreliable in normal times. At times like this, they love to sensationalize, to give people what they want, to sell papers.

(I wonder what all these terrorists are waiting for, the ones that were planted over the years. They must be getting bored, none of the 1000 have done anything until 911).

Make an effort to interpret what you read.

John
