However, Transportation Security Administration chief John Pistole has said that al Asiri developed a new type of explosive that might be able to slip through security.

“All of our explosive detection equipment, which screens over a million checked bags every day just in the U.S., wasn’t calibrated to detect that,” Pistole said.

It's really out of character for this administration to actually warn us of a planned attack. Everything in the past has gone to the execution stage, with luck being what's prevented disaster in some of them (underwear bomber, Times Square bomber, etc.). Of course others, also missed/ignored by team Obama, were successful (Fort Hood, Boston Marathon, Little Rock recruiting office, etc.).

It's very strange that Obama has seemingly told the NSA to take some valuable time away from spying on his political enemies to actually check in on America's real enemies... on the other hand, this could all be B.S.

“Just a ruse so that the NSA and CIA can stick their chests out and proclaim, “See, the system worked, we stopped a terrorist attack.”

That was my take on it.

He remakes the ME in his own image with Arab Spring and as a result no Americans can be there.

Splendid!

Fox News analyst blaming the embassy closing announcement on Susan Rice. Further proof that she is completely unfit for the position Obie has appointed her to.
