So On I-294 N today right by O'Hare Airport I saw two fuel tanks followed by a humvee full of outfitted soldiers, and a state trooper with his lights on all pulled over on the shoulder. This may be a stupid question but WTF is going on?

Are you saying it appeared the State Trooper pulled the soldiers over? LOL, State Police doesn't cut anybody any slack do they!
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the 36 hour deadline over? And why are we saying the 19th now, is that the end of Ramadan?

That is one of the funniest things I have ever heard
Now to be serious...
Us enlisted folks...and...frankly...most officers have no clue about the big picture like they think they do. Most who sit and tell you that big things arecoming are speculating, being fed BS, or maybe truly believe somehting they have no clue about. I spent 6 years on a tour as a nuke-troop (2W2) in Minot. I knew how to fix weapons, disable, build and test them. Now I work Services (3M0) in the reserve. In each setting I was a peon. I an an NCO now and was on in the 2W2 core and trust me none of us know any special information like this pleasant individual claims. As far as exercises go there hasn't been an increase. We have exercises constantly. Several a year at each base. Frankly I think the increase is people increasing in noticing the exercises due to the dire times.
JMHO

"Heart of a Soldier" tells the story of two men who, well before it happened, foretold not only of the terrorist attack of 9/11 but also the 1993 bombing in the World Trade Center parking garage that preceded it.
It was Hill who converted to Islam as a young U.S. Army paratrooper stationed in Beirut in 1958. It was Hill who learned fluent Arabic. It was Hill who joined the Mujahedeen Freedom Fighters in Afghanistan and fought the Soviet invasion there in the 1980s.
Hill said the next terrorist attack will involve suitcase nuclear bombs that will be detonated in small, low-flying two-seater private airplanes manned by men hanging onto the belief that, like the 9/11 hijackers, they are about to die as martyrs and enter paradise.
The nukes, he said, will be detonated over New York, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Miami, Houston, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. I asked Hill, "Why now?" "Eight years from 1993 to 2001, eight years from that 9/11 to this 9/11," he said. "Symbolism. They're big on symbolism." "Ramadan started two weeks ago Saturday," he said, referring to the Muslim holy month of fasting. "It always hits around Ramadan."
"I don't know the second, hour or day. I just know they have the means, will, motivation and desire to do it," he said, noting that it's believed that years ago the suitcase nukes, acquired from former USSR operatives, were smuggled into America across the Mexican border."
