I honestly don’t see how any sort of “wag the terrorists” scenario would help the Dems. — Think Obama with his “we can absorb another attack”, whoever the woman was with “the system worked”, multiple reassurances of how our borders are safer than ever, reaching out to the ROP and lecturing anyone who dares mention they’re in agreement with Juan Williams feelings

"I'd say AQ has discovered what Rescorla anticipated a decade ago."

AQ knows that domestic USA security for anything brought aboard an aircraft is tight.

Looks like they've discovered a "work-around" in using an all-cargo aircraft.

And, it's only days away from the election, so I'm not surprised at all by the timing of this...

This is sounding more and more like large scale diversion to me. Where are they not looking?

Head fake by AQ and the Bowrama admin.

Those planes are full of Democrat absentee ballots. These planes have been quarantined so that the Philly unions can unload the crates of ballots out of sight of real Americans.

In saner times that would make me laugh. Now, not so much.

It helps them if it is bad as elections can be suspended.

OMG WTH is going on?

I was thinking this was a Dem plot, but I am getting extremely concerned.

PRAYERS UP!!!!

If we are attacked, it is likely we will LOSE BIG Tuesday because of the sudden shift in attention and coalescing around the party in power.

But, honestly I don’t care about that right now.

IF WE ARE UNDER ATTACK, prayers up now....this could be extremely serious, or it could be a false alarm.

Couple this with the gunfire attacks on USMC and DoD locations in recent weeks, and the two Staten Island Muslims arrested independently this week and it adds up to what the Russians call maskirova. A deception designed to hide a greater plan. Something wicked this way comes, and IMO it is coming soon.

Me too,
There was that bust of the DC metro employee, the shootings of USMC-related targets in NOVA and now this...somebody’s probing us..and with the USMC marathon and that big Comedy Central rally this weekend down here? I just have a really bad feeling.

If nothing comes of this and then the Administration goes on a full-scale media blitz about how they saved us then I will smell a rat. A democRAT.

*snip*

U.S. and European authorities are attempting to thwart what appears to be an ongoing bomb plot in which more than a dozen potential bombs were shipped to the U.S. aboard numerous air carriers, federal sources told ABC News, and then distributed onto UPS cargo trucks in New York, and possibly New Jersey.

It’s a gamble for sure..but remember..they are desperate. Since they haven’t been able to convince Americans that they saved us from another great depression..they may resort to lying that they ‘saved us from another 911’.

IF we are attacked, do you honestly think there will be a Tuesday election?

October surprise?

Maybe, but would a terrorist attack really rally the voting public around the pathetically weak-on-terrorism President and his Democrat party?

Sort of a diversion...It makes our guys “show” their security. The muzzies did these type of runs before the embassy bombings.

Trying to disrupt the election, no doubt.

I've said for months that the dems wouldn't have been so "in your face" in forcing their agenda down the throats of citizens if they weren't assured that they would not feel any consequences.

I still look for a "national emergency" to be called and the election to be "postponed". If they can't steal the election, they will find a way to call it off. I wouldn't put ANYTHING beyond the socialists.

"Two Planes Have Been Segregated at Newark Liberty and Philadelphia International Airports Due to 'Suspicious Items' On Board

Officials are not saying what those suspicious items may be, but the planes landed safely and then they were moved and are now being checked.

One plane is a UPS plane and the other is a commercial plane with no passengers on board.
