Yeah, let's give up over there. We'd much rather fight them over here...or at least react AFTER an attack. Thanks liberals.

There was a lot of interesting stuff on Zarq's thumb drive that we got a hold of.

What attack plan? All we got were seized documents about some plan by the ragheads to attack the United States.

The left will have a field day with this and we just need to remind them of a couple of things:

a) we wouldn't have found out about this if we weren't in Iraq;

b) most of those insurgents are Iranians;

c) when the left tells us that there weren't AQ in Iraq before the war, you can look at this link:

6 months ago......... ABC knew about this. Where they holding this info for the November elections.

This makes my blood boil. They want to hang Bush and give him no credit in order to get dims back into power. I for one do not even believe the dims won the last election fair and square.

Show us a document saying they're NOT hoping to attack us, then you have some real breaking news.

No, the rats didn't tell you because they want plausible deniability. Their media whores told you so.

LOL. I always get my whores mixed up. I wonder if I'm related to the Kennedys?

U.S. officials now require universities to closely track foreign nationals who use student visas to study in the United States

So we're relying on college employees to keep track of terrorists? Great.

GEe what a surprise -- news of a possible Terrorist Attack right before the SUPER BOWL. Good thing this hasn't happened in the past.

My only guess would be that ABC "News" is revealing this as a misdirection aid for the Insurgents. Be warned.

The question is, when have they NOT been planning an attack on U.S. soil? ABC is getting in a dither about some documents in Iraq, and behind the scenes, we've probably broken up more of these planned attacks here in the last few years than we probably care to know.

Eventually, some loose cannon is going to break away from the Al Qaeda apparatus, get a couple people, and do it on their own.

documents captured by coalition forces during a raid of a safe house believed to house Iraqi members of al Qaeda six months ago "revealed [AQI] was planning terrorist operations in the U.S."

the same time frame that those 11 students failed to show up for their class's.

Oh please.

The natives on Fiji could plan an attack on the US. I suppose the Chicken Little types here would see that as a good reason to attack Fiji.

Mark my words: Now that the Democrats are back in power, they will be every bit as driven as the outgoing pubbies to plow under any vestiges of freedom in this country in the name of protecting us from outside threats. This is nothing more than ABC warming up the bullpen for them.

I wonder how the media will spin this. Probably that we caused it.

Are you kidding? Of course this will be their response. Haven't they always reasoned this, that we caused everyone in the world to be mad at us by our very existence!

from your link

This appears to be the first hard evidence al Qaeda in Iraq was trying to attack us here at home," said ABC News consultant Richard Clarke, former chief counterterrorism adviser on the U.S. National Security Council.

We will never know that considering Berger destroyed a bunch of documents

And they'll say it's his fault for getting all those nice terrorists in Iraq mad at us.

Lt. Gen. Michael D. Maples, head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, recently testified that documents captured by coalition forces during a raid of a safe house believed to house Iraqi members of al Qaeda six months ago "revealed [AQI] was planning terrorist operations in the U.S."

At this point, the cat was out of the bag. The article goes on to state that ABC dug deeper and had some anonymous sources. They're just as bad, in my opinion. But in this case, the word was already officially out, just not the details.

It's worse than you think - the ones actually doing it are probably work-study students... :)
