One message posted Monday on Al-Falluja by a prominent contributor called “Abu Raghd”

Abu Raghd? I doubt this is any Muslim.

One post on the jihadi forum Al-Falluja calls for information such as the “name of the particular naval unit to be targeted, its exact location, the number of troops on board the warship and their ranks, familial status, where their families live, the type of weapons the warship carries … and the number of nuclear bombs onboard,” reads a report compiled by the Washington, D.C.-based Middle East Media Research Institute.

Not exactly rocket scientists. Since 1992 there haven't been any nuclear weapons aboard any US vessels other than Trident submarines (which go nowhere near the Persian Gulf.)

My brother-in-law is a CO on one of those ships.

I’m sure that he’ll have a good laugh when I forward this article to him...

There guys are really cocky to threaten the US Navy. Maybe the indecisiveness of “The One” has contributed to this.

I’d rather see a few Tomahawks up some Muslim ass.

Maybe the Navy can give Hansan’s pals a job to help out.

"Extremists reportedly are “on the verge of attacking U.S. ships in the gulf,”

That's exactly what they said in June of 2001.
