Best Time To Attack U.S. Is Now?

With all the resources being depleted, police officers and military soldiers going to concentrated areas that have no real importance in a time of war (Louisiana and The Gulf coast), power outages (weaknesses clearly seen in the power grid), oil costs going through the roof to the point that two major airlines had to file bankruptcy, you would think the U.S. government would raise their terror warning level.

In just one city area, bodies where floating around and shown on television. If you can get cameramen in there, why can't you get people in there to clean this mess up? Are resources that depleted?

This just seem like a horrible mess. I don't think I've ever seen things as bad in my lifetime. This is it folks. The worst of the worst times I've seen so far. Honestly have you lived to see worst? I'm saying as far as there being a better time to attack the U.S. than now?

I've seen the terror warning being raised based on rumors of attacks on a few buildings. Well folks, the U.S. is completely exposed now, it's official. Louisiana was the confirmation statement. And after hurricane Rita takes out most of the major U.S. oil refineries located in the gulf coast region, who knows what will happen next.





"What if this is as good as it gets" - Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson was right...

Nobody is going to attack us. We will die by our own sword.

I would probably agree with you that now would be a very opportune time for the terrorists to attack. Indeed, American law enforcement and emergency response agencies are, no doubt, stretchebeyond "acceptable" limits. However, I would think that anti-terrorist agencies are more than aware of this possibility. With this in mind, I would have to surmise that these anti-terrorist agencies are on a heightened state of alert. I am certain that they have "their ears to the ground" and are keenly aware of any suspected terrorist cells.

Meanwhile, Attorney General Gonzalez has given the FBI a new mission. That mission? The War On Porn.

That's right, forget terrorists. Your government is now seeking to put a halt to your daily dose of porn with your own tax money spent on a team of FBI agents tasked with gathering evidence against "manufacturers and purveyors" of pornography.

They are known as the "Anti-Obscenity Squad".

Recruits Sought For Porn Squad

The FBI is joining the Bush administration's War on Porn. And it's looking for a few good agents.

Early last month, the bureau's Washington Field Office began recruiting for a new anti-obscenity squad. Attached to the job posting was a July 29 Electronic Communication from FBI headquarters to all 56 field offices, describing the initiative as "one of the top priorities" of Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales and, by extension, of "the Director." That would be FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III.

Mischievous commentary began propagating around the water coolers at 601 Fourth St. NW and its satellites, where the FBI's second-largest field office concentrates on national security, high-technology crimes and public corruption.

The new squad will divert eight agents, a supervisor and assorted support staff to gather evidence against "manufacturers and purveyors" of pornography -- not the kind exploiting children, but the kind that depicts, and is marketed to, consenting adults.

"I guess this means we've won the war on terror," said one exasperated FBI agent, speaking on the condition of anonymity because poking fun at headquarters is not regarded as career-enhancing. "We must not need any more resources for espionage."

Among friends and trusted colleagues, an experienced national security analyst said, "it's a running joke for us."

A few of the printable samples:

"Things I Don't Want On My Resume, Volume Four."

"I already gave at home."

"Honestly, most of the guys would have to recuse themselves."

And this is the kicker:

But Gonzales endorses the rationale of predecessor Meese: that adult pornography is a threat to families and children. Christian conservatives, long skeptical of Gonzales, greeted the pornography initiative with what the Family Research Council called "a growing sense of confidence in our new attorney general."

HELLOOOO??? Have you people gone nuts over there?

it would cause utter chaos if there were major attacks, that is if the terrorist have the means to do so...

well world nut daily is calling for the "ramadan offensive" to occur somtime around october 4 which will be about a week after rita, and on a tuesday no less........

i wouldnt loose any sleep over it. I lost all credability in world nut daily and that williams guy a long time ago. the fact that he wrote a book saying 7 major city will be nuked by the end of 2005 kinda makes me wonder. that sure is a way to sell a book, isnt it?

The FBI is big enough to have a few investigations/projects running at the same time.

Big deal, not news.

I'm glad our elected leader(s) appear to be so good with numbers. I haven't checked this out yet but I've heard that spending 200 billion dollars for New Orleans for the recovery amounts to 200,000 dollars per man, woman, and child of New Orleans. A family of four could come out with $800,000 if it wasn't wasted on corporations and the government. Now apparently the war on terror is not a tremendous drain on resources either because the FBI is going after something a few parents have complained about. Maybe we should have a recall election or whatever they had in California before it's too late. We don't need a terrorist attack because our leaders are already taking care of business going after the ordinary middle class in my opinion.

FBI is so concerned with Porn? What?! Maybe because they think Osama owns porn sites. *Ah, thats where he got his money from*

Or perhaps porn stars are terrorists

But seriously, I doubt there will be an attack for these reasons:

1) If you believe the government was behind it, why have an attack now? The last thing they want is economic depression at a cost of national martial law.

2) If you believe its really the Jihadists, it wouldnt work for them either. Remember, they believe Allah did the work for them in Katrina and Rita, so they can just sit back and relax.

"2) If you believe its really the Jihadists, it wouldnt work for them either. Remember, they believe Allah did the work for them in Katrina and Rita, so they can just sit back and relax. "

Actually they claim "the terrorist katrina in ONE of the soldiers sent by allah" Those bastards claim they too are soldiers sent by allah.

if anything rita's destruction will reinforce what they are doing is the right thing as allah sends another so called "soldier".

they feel allah gives them blessings to attack, this fuels their heads as more proof and will continue to attack, maybe on a larger scale.

I however strongly feel they do not the means to launch a major attack on american soil.
