Oh how I wish the Koreans would immediately state that they are multiplying their deployment to Iraq by 100.
No. Not too harsh.
I would rather remove the mosques here in CONTUS first. Then worry about the ones in M.E.
bookmark - gotta run
and Amen.
THANK YOU tmp02 for that summary.
What will happen when they capture their first American hostage in this country and behead them?
From their writings and confessions that is exactly part of their plan along with of course, the bombings either dirty or IED. Then there's the chemical or biological threat.
Where does it end? I feel as though I should be carrying a gun with me when I go out. At this point I would love to shoot one of them. I'm really tired of their cr@p. (sorry I've been swearing today, I usually don't do that unless I'm driving)
Hey JP. As soon as I get back up to speed I will check in with promed. I understand it is too numerous to post, but, can you elaborate on the pattern you are seeing? Thanks.
God forbid. But I really do wonder what would happen. I hope not the same will hunt them down speech. But I really don't know what else could be done.
Tanker Explosion, Chemical Leak Closes Erie Freeway
The Associated Press 6/22/2004, 8:23 a.m. ET
ERIE, Pa. (AP) — A tanker truck exploded Monday night, spilling chemicals on a freeway and injuring one person.
Emergency crews on Tuesday were trying to clear wreckage from Interstate 90. State police said a corrosive chemical mixture of sodium hydrochlorite and sodium hydroxite was mistakenly placed into the truck's aluminum tank. The mixture should have been transported in a stainless steel tank.
State police had stopped the truck around 8 p.m. because it was leaking its load onto Interstate 90 near the Interstate 79 interchange. The truck exploded about 30 minutes later, injuring one bystander.
That person, who was not identified, was taken to the hospital and treated for eye and respiratory problems, WICU-TV reported.
Emergency crews were trying to contain the chemical, which leaked into the highway drainage system. Crews worried that heavy rain showers forecast for Tuesday morning would spread the contamination.
Westbound lanes on I-90 were open Tuesday morning, though only one lane was open for eastbound motorists. Link to Article
I apologize for the late response. I had alot of work yesterday, it was hectic. Back to the subject of the Long Beach port. I don't believe they did, however I could be wrong. I remember it being called off. Of course that doesn't mean Klintoon didn't slip the transaction under the radar. I will go the Long Beach Port Authority's website (if they have one) and look or I'll call someone there and maybe get an answer.
Driver Had Seven Warrants For Arrest
UPDATED: 9:53 AM EDT June 22, 2004 FAIRLAWN, Ohio -- The doors of a Tops grocery store in Fairlawn will be open this morning after police placed the store on lockdown for four hours Monday afternoon, NewsChannel5 reported.
Officers discovered what looked like a large pipe bomb in a car during a traffic stop in the grocery store's parking lot. It turned out to be a flashlight taped up to what looked like a bomb. Police said Troy Mihal, 30, also had a Halloween mask, a ski mask and a fake gun in the trunk of a red Cadillac.
The Summit County Bomb Squad was called to evaluate the device and dispose of it. It turned out to be fake, but an official said it had wires attached to it.
The parking lot area was temporarily evacuated while the bomb squad evaluated the bomb. Sgt. Robert Rhoads said, "We definitely saw an object that had some batteries and a canister and a wire attached to it. At that point, it told us that it was very dangerous to us." Mihal, who had seven felony warrants for his arrest, is in police custody. He is scheduled to be arraigned at 1 p.m. Link to Article
Tough question. What I wish would happen is that we give the Islamic community 48 hours to hand over the perpetrators and anyone associated with them. If they don't, the entire religion is declared a terrorist organization... we close borders, start deporting, filling concentration camps and generally start making this the most unpleasant place in the world to be mooselimb... but then again, I'm just a dreamer.
RENO, NV, June 21 Activity in downtown Reno is back to normal Monday morning after an explosion under a downtown street this weekend. The lights went black in several hotels, including the Circus Circus, Eldorado, Silver Legacy and Fitzgerald's and nearly 1,000 customers lost power to their northwest Reno homes.
The cause was a small explosion underground Sierra and Fifth Streets at 2:30 Saturday morning. Road crews worked on the blown-out underground circuit most of the day leaving downtown roads closed.
Aside from the circuit, there was no damage to the area around the explosion. Link to Article
Before I place the most recent incident in Erie on the list of potential terrorism events, I would like to know more about the driver of the truck, the owner of the truck, the company and person who loaded the truck, and the destination of the truck. Seems like mixing these chemcials with alumminum is such an obvious no-no, that this has to be more than a simple mistake.
I would like to know all of those details as well...but good-luck....these stories have a way of disappearing without any additional info.
rwfromkansas posted this about the mental illness check-up:
If you read the article, all this will be....at most....will be a plan with an initiative encouraging every citizen to get tested.
Not a big deal; they do the same with brushing your teeth or flossing. They don't mandate you do so.
As usual, WND twists the truth by exaggerating their headline.

You have to read between the lines with WND to get the real story. The headline is not supported by the story.
