The terrorists have specific targets
in various cities and are simply waiting
for some signal to activate themselves.


that sounds about right.

sleeper cells are not a new phenomenon
- they've been around since the cold war
if not before.

Oh, that is simply terrifying, Jewel.

YOU ARE WRONG and completely CLUELESS. This is what was said about that 4 million figure. It had nothing to do with Gary Hart. He was just quoting (and wrongly I might add) the recent report that stated that Bush's action have INCREASED TERRORISM:

news-leader.com

The United States is al-Qaida's prime target in a war it sees as a death struggle between civilizations, the report said. An al-Qaida leader has said 4 million Americans will have to be killed "as a prerequisite to any Islamic victory," the survey said.

The London-based institute is considered the most important security think tank outside the United States. Its findings on al-Qaida's expanding structure and growing support by allied terrorist networks track with similar assessments from governments and other experts.
