Michigan has a large Muslim population, so they could hide easier. And NJ has military presence as well. I'm not sure what other regions were mentioned.

If we find a common denominator then we could identify other schools at risk. This is one man or woman's tape. Who is to say others aren't more?

When I took my grandson to school Tue, I made a loop thru the parking lot first.

Further down in the article:

And though the information was recovered in July, it was not given urgency until the attack in Beslan.

Pardon me, but this represents a stunning lack of imagination on the part of the administration's anti-terror leadership. An insurgent element in Baghdad downloads the blue prints and security layout of high schools and elementary schools in the U.S. prior to Beslan and no one thinks the unthinkable until the massacre occurs in Russia? What the President needs to do is jettison his famous loyalty and fire these numbnuts' and replace them with tough-as-nails, pipe hard sumbitches who can think the impossible before my children, your children, our children become victims. (By the way, if he pulls this kind of bold move he will be elected in a walk).

Also a lack of memory. I was in grade school during Gulf War I and we went on alert because of Saddam's terror threats and the children of Marines and sailors at our school.

School officials in Fort Myers, Fla.; Salem, Ore.; Gray, Ga.; Birch Run, Mich.; two towns in New Jersey; and two towns in California have been told to increase security in light of the discovery.

Officials in the New Jersey towns, Franklinville and Rumson, were notified by counterterrorism officials last month that their schools had been possibly singled out.

"Once we were notified, we immediately put a plan into effect," said Dwight Pfenning, deputy commissioner of education for the state of New Jersey.

First we need to know where the failure "of imagination" occurred. Whether it was with intelligence officials in Iraq or how it was handled (if received) by homeland security folks.

That said, inaction has been the name of the game for homeland security when it comes to practical steps. Par example,winning the war is important, but not nearly as important as placating the national interests of Vincente Fox.

This sort of thing raises the hackles on by back. I pray we never have another Beslan, I pray no one else ever has a Beslan.

"Vox suggested parents take out life insurance
policies on their children."

I'd rather they take their children out of the schools especially if the schools have been bullseyed. It's not difficult to organize homeschool co-ops and they can use flex-time for the working parents.

I think a school in San Diego was one of the targets.

Just remember, wrong war, wrong place, wrong time - or something like that. The only way we know about these documents is because we have boots in Baghdad.

Gray, Georgia is near Macon, where Warner Robbins AFB is located.

No, it's much more important that we not offend the NEA or start teaching children the values of their parents (not to mention how to actually read), than take them out of public schools to avoid terrorists ;)

To dubie:

"Just remember, wrong war, wrong place, wrong time - or something like that. The only way we know about these documents is because we have boots in Baghdad."

Bullseye!

School Plans, Security Information Gathered by Suspected Iraq Insurgent Focus Concern on Schools in Six States
