Poll question: How long until it happens here?
Istanbul, Kirkuk, Ramadi, all places where U.S. allies were bombed today.

So here's the question: how long before it's going to reach Chicago, NY, SF, LA?

1. Just a matter of weeks.
We're dangerously vulnerable. I fully expect a rash of bombings in the United States. With targets like Chicago, San Francisco. As long as that motherfucker is in the White House, we WILL be targets of terrorism. And sooner, not later.

And the Department of Homeland security is a desperately sad, fucking joke.

2. Months
As in, "A couple of months before the 2004 elections (if any)." And the BFEE will be behind the attacks.

:scared:

3. Just like today
W needed another distraction. So instead of seeing a split screen with him giving his little speech and British protesters, those pictures were replaced with pics of the terrorists killing more innocent people. Bu$h likes those kinds of pictures a lot better.

5. Meanwhile
The terror alert level in France, whose terror alert system dates from a series of 1995 bombings in Paris, has recently been lowered to pre-Sept. 11 levels.

No connection with France's stand on the Iraq invasion of course.

6. It can ONLY happen here if the bush regime LETS it. We do have, in spite
of all the lies, hoopla, chicanery and circus acts, THE finest intelligence operatives on the planet.

These guys KNEW we were being attacked on 9.11 and the bush regime intentionally failed to heed the warnings for their own gain.

Our FBI and CIA are still smarting from that.

Also, there is no organized terrorist group seeking revenge on the USA per se. Al queda isn't the fierce well run army the bush regime makes it out to be. The ops in the splinter cells who've aligned themselves with the ISI and al queda are well known to our intel orgs, and luckily, our intel orgs are comprised of AMERICAN PEOPLE who will not let us down.

I ain't skeered.

7. how about, "any moment now"?
It's how I've felt for more than two years. And my gut refuses to unclench until the greatest threat to peace the world has ever known is gone, gone, gone.

8. Other: Its been happening here, reported as 'accidents'
I don't believe this, but I think it is probable that Terrah would

not be reported here unless there was a clear political benefit

in allowing it to be reported.

11. AWOL has created ...
the Decade of Terror.

It has already begun. Unfortunately, it is people of other countries that are being killed. Not that I wish anybody become a victim of terrorism.

AWOL is directly resonsible for the recent deaths in Turkey. When is someone going inform AWOL that the line about them "Hating our Freedoms" is nothing more than propoganda.

Hey dipshit, they do not hate our freedoms, they hate YOU.

Cheers
Drifter
