"When did he give the date?"
That date's been floating around the net for as long as the suitcase nukes story has been out there. If memory serves, the deal was there would be lots of little terror events globally leading up to the big attack here. Dates given: 8-6 or 9-11. Sorry, no source. Just my leaky recollection.
Police protection is good, but...
this is a war.
Where are the troops?
