my thinking is outside the paranoia propaganda machine

Apparently the scary news is 2-4 years old and the Bush administration was just behind reading it's intelligence reports.

<font color=green>Much of the information that led the authorities to raise the terror alert at several large financial institutions in the New York City and Washington areas was three or four years old, intelligence and law enforcement officials said on Monday. They reported that they had not yet found concrete evidence that a terrorist plot or preparatory surveillance operations were still under way.</font>

Any rational person would have to assume first that the administration is lying, and only get worried if a legitimate source confirmed their sky-is-falling announcements.
