All the "Chatter" seems to indicate that they are still trying to use Airplanes. Stuck in rut, I'd say.


I think, can't prove it, they're just pulling our chains. What they're really doing is concentrating on Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

They probably didn't get settled down right away after their Afghanistan fiasco and would have to start from square one with a US campaign. I think they're finding even getting decent intelligence suddenly became more difficult and that US and other security services are far more curious than pre 9/11.

An IRA type campaign will be even less successful in US than it was in Britain - US is too big. Remember the 60s and 70s? Bombs didn't change squat.

They want nukes. They're crazy, but that's what they want.

Since they have not done so, I'm inclined to see it as misinformation or a ruse and want to see security keep looking in 360 degrees.

We may be the ones in a rut. If our security is focused intently on airplanes, everything else vulnerable.

Tip: Ask your physician about KI, potassium iodide, and how to use it to protect children and pregnant women from radioactive fallout. KI is inexpensive and readily available. IMO a 3-5 day supply per person is sufficient.

These pills are best taken before exposure. I recommend they be part of a family's emergency kit, if you are within 200 miles of a reactor or nuclear storage facility.
