Roebear & Iso, on the terrorist articles.

Thing that gets me is in the language of the alert, "several officials said that today's warning was genuine, although they added that there was no intelligence about the time, place or method of any such attack."

So we have a "genuine warning" but no intelligence about time or place. How do you have a "genuine" supposedly credible warning but have no intelligence.??? Sounds a bit to me like the boys in the radio room heard some chatter and the brass upstairs didn't want to be on record as having not put out an alert. I guess I hope that's the case though it makes about as negative a statement about our intelligence capabilities as a "genuine warning" that has no intelligence.

The US had to get control of its boarders. Slam the door shut on the type of profile that has and would commit terrorist acts, run all illegal aliens out of th country on a rail and get over attempts to be politically correct at security checkpoints. We have enemies out there. Another attack and we'll see new rules.....as usual, behind schedule.
