If this is today's main gate, it doesn't look like there's much to destroy with a car-bomb.

3 Middle Eastern Men Tried To Enter Base Without Proper Authorization, Base Alert Says.
SAN DIEGO -- One of the nation's largest military bases is reportedly under tighter security after three Middle Eastern men tried to enter without proper authorization.
shortly after midnight Sunday, a rented silver Toyota Corolla driven by Naeem attempted to enter Camp Pendleton through the main gate. As it was being searched, Petrossian and Avanosian drove up in a black Mercedes, but were told to wait. Instead, they continued past the gate and onto the base. Following a short pursuit, the Mercedes was stopped and searched.
Naaem told base security he was lost and was trying to go to Glendale. When interviewed, Petrossian and Avanosian said they were lost and trying to go to Glendale. The three men claimed not to know each other...
Naaem, Petrossian and Avanosian were photographed and released after questioning, and a warning about the trio was posted to law enforcement.
However, later that morning about 8:30 a.m., Naeem returned in the Toyota and tried to get on the base again, saying he made a mistake and was trying to enter Interstate 5, the alert said. After his vehicle was searched, Naeem was issued a letter of debarment from the base and escorted to the freeway.

Not a good place to pick a fight (maybe they heard the 1/1 has been deployed.)
Names number 2 and 3 are Armenian sounding and that usually implies Christian, but this certainly sounds like some test runs. Has Obwana done anything to pi** of the Armenians lately?
Glendale my ass. NOTHING around Pendleton would make you think Glendale, Van Nuys, Riverside, any of that was even remotely near by.
What I am curious of is besides Mainside entrance, which other entrance did they try to get in?
Anyone who works/lives here in L.A. knows that Glendale is Armenian territory, aside from little Armenia in Hollywood but Pendleton is far away from Glendale, so I smelled something fishy...especially the part where they were caught a SECOND TIME!
/Camp Horno alumni.
Sounds like a probe to me, to see how the Marines would react.
Testing?
Two of these guys are Armenian...unless they’re using phony names.
Our bases need signs that say “Stop or Deadly Force Will Be used”. And make sure it’s in all the Arab languages.
You were arty, right? 0811? Was your basecamp off Basilone rd at that time?
Time to waterboard them.
I live in LA, NO WAY does a person end up in Camp Pendleton and think they are close to Glendale..I would understand if they were somewhere in the Valley and got lost but going all the way to Camp Pendleton and somehow thinking your near Glendale, come on..yeah I smell something really rotten
Deadly force is authorized at Camp Pen. There are several different unit camps on Camp Pendleton. Each camp has their own guard or security detatchment. A chase will only last until the perps make it to the first camp. I saw a van full of illegal aliens almost get turned into Swiss chess at Camp Horno. Had the tonks not stopped for PMO the road block formed by the guard at Camp Horno would have laid into them with an assortment of full auto goodies.
Swiss chess=Sweese cheese.
Swiss cheese
good grief.
