By reading your posts, some prayers, I guess that's what you have done.

Too bad and so sad you are so terribly wrong and biased. In this regard you are no better than the "good" and "bad" Moslem that prays to his Allah five times a day!

You jump so very easily to conclusions and confusion! You have a very warped mind.

By the way, a Jew once entered my office and saw a red phone on my desk."

He asked, "What phone is that? It certainly looks very special. I have one like that in my office, too."

I replied, "That's my hotline to God."

He said, "Oh really! How much is a 1-minute call?"

I said, "I'm not exactly sure but I guess it is $1.00."

He said with a gleam in his eye, "Wanna know how much is my 1-minute call to God?"

I replied, "Yea, how much?"

He replied, "Oh, no charge at all. You see, for me it's a local call."

So why do folks like you worry so much? Don't you guys believe you are well taken care of? Or, are you still not sure? A sign of hypocrisy, or fear? or both?

F.B.I. Warns of Possible Threat to Synagogues
By PHILIP SHENON

WASHINGTON, June 21 — The F.B.I. has warned its field offices and other law enforcement agencies that terrorists could use fuel tanker trucks for an attack on synagogues or Jewish schools, law enforcement officials said today, emphasizing that they had no solid evidence that such a plot was at hand.

The alert, the latest in a series since Sept. 11 about possible terrorist threats, was issued as a result of interrogations of Al Qaeda fighters being held at the American military base at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, the officials said.

They said that law enforcement agencies were encouraging synagogues and Jewish schools to be vigilant, but that there was no need for them to close and no information about when or where an attack might occur.

"Apparently Al Qaeda people had talked about carrying out this sort of attack," one official said. "We're just being cautious here. We're not telling people to avoid their synagogues."
