There have been stories about this all week. I figure they just hit the press because of the date.

 

[WIDELAT]

OH, FREAKED ME OUT. I'LL KEEP LISTENING TO THE STATION THOUGH.

 

[casavant]

Nope. But you just KNOW the media must be ROYALLY pissed that nothing happened today. I bet they had everyone on call, reporters standing next to production trucks, videophones charged up just in case something happens. Oh poor babies...life sucks huh CNN?

It wouldn't surprise me if some shit went down a week or two down the road, when everyone thinks they can breathe a relative sigh of relief.

It took what, 10 years for them to plan Sept 11? And you think they are gonna have another attack just one year later? These things take times, the terriosts are extremely intelligent and are not going to rush anything while america is still on high alert. I wouldnt be surprised if a small group of people tried to do something, but don't be expecting a huge attack to happen for another few years. Next attack will probably be biological or nuclear anyways.

I doubt the anthrax came from an American. It was to well timed with the WTC. And they will be attacking sooner than later too. They probably have had more than one attack in the works.

when it just could be some two redneck jerks from Arkansas with a bomb truck.

Why's it always gotta be Arkansas? Huh?

What makes you think they're capable of planning only one attack at a time? Besides, terrorist attacks don't have to be large or even very effective from the a casualty standpoint to instill fear in the populace. Hence the baseword "terror".

Well like I said I highly doubt they'd do another attack while america is on high alert.

I think their plan was to cause an uprising in the arab community which would cause terriost movements by individuals. That obviously failed for the most part. A small attack would not cause an uprising, that's why i doubt they would do something on a smaller scale. I believe they would do something much larger. For instance, setting off a nuclear bomb near a national symbol.

I for one would love to see them blow up the white house. Could you imagine what would have happen if that 4th plane hit the white house? That's bush's home. He'd be pissed, call in huge air strikes and turn the middle east into another ocean

I hear ya. And like I said, or I guess implied, I think that they would wait until we aren't on high alert to attack. That's what I meant when I said "breathing a sigh relative relief.".

It probably doesn't make any difference whether America is on high security alert or not. I'm sure that if some extremists wanted to, they could easily strap a bomb to themselves and walk out into a big city, just like in Israel.

September 11th didn't take ten years too plan and a massive terrorist cell like alqueida will be have been planning more than one attack at once. The thing that worries me is suicide bombers whats to stop twenty sucide bomber boarding twenty rush hour buses and then detonating themselves and killing myabe 500 people

There's nothing to stop them. I'm shocked it hasn't happened already. Makes me think that they're planning something on a much bigger scale for the near future.
