Every time I hear something like this, I think, it's on.

Only to have everything calm down (or disappear) in a matter of days.

Still,

It's only a matter of time before all hell breaks loose.

I don’t know if this coup is *by* Al Qaeda, but they certainly have a seat at the table.

From Wall Street Journal reporters in Kabul:

A number of suicide bombers took over a building under construction near the airport, and were launching rocket-propelled grenades from it, Kabul police spokesman Heshmat Stanekzai said. A coalition spokesperson also confirmed an attack was under way.

Initial details on casualties were sketchy, but ambulance sirens raced through Kabul's deserted streets as the loudspeakers at the coalition's main headquarters, heard through much of central Kabul, urged everyone to take cover.

SNIP

The northern side of the Kabul airport houses a sprawling coalition military base that's home to the coalition's Joint Command, the war's operational headquarters. Officers reached at the command said the fighting was ongoing and that they were posting troops on rooftops.

PRISM isn’t for overseas terrorists. It’s for Tea Party types.
