***Who would want to be in their position to make that judgment call whether to issue urgent alerts or not? If we were in on some of the intelligence reports they get, probably all of us would have the whole nation under urgent alert everyday.***
I'm glad SOMEBODY said that.
***Just because no one told you doesn't mean they don't exist.***
No matter WHAT the White House does, it will never be enough for some people.
Not smart
Well I'll tell you what, Mr. anonymous city official, why don't you go it alone then without the help of the feds.
Geez, should the FBI have ignored info that an attack was imminent within 24 hours while they took the time to check the sources? When time is that limited, they HAVE to take it seriously before they investigate the legitimacy of the claim.
Thanks so much for that information. I have been searching for Midhat Mursi for months. The last I read he was ready to cross or here already. Then nothing. Then I saw a blurb (Quayles) that he had been captured on a forum and someone pointed out to me that he's no longer on the FBI list. BUT, no printed article, alphabet agency or media report has ever listed him as captured.
He is their master bomb maker and headed the camp in Afghanistan where they trained for everything from bombs to bioterrorism.
The hunt goes on..
Thank you for this post.
The people who enjoy the cheap labor of these mobs of illegals must be one potent lobby
Excellent post.
I'm getting real sick of anonymous sources.
16-good points:
"This "Homeland Security" stuff is a joke. It is little more than an excuse to expand the power of the federal gov't and it's control over our lives.
Your gov't cannot protect you, nor do they have a legal duty to do so (you can't sue them if they fail to protect you). Anyway, if they wanted to do so, the first thing they would do is to seal off the borders to prevent illegals from coming here. Securing one large outer perimeter is much easier than attempting to secure tens of thousands of smaller, interior ones.
Since they have failed to do so (and apparently have no desire to do so) people are ultimately responsible for their own safety."
