Obama wakes up [to international terrorism?]; White House alarmed
New York Post ^ | 05-11-10 | Ralph Peters

Posted on 05/11/2010 12:44:28 PM PDT by thouworm

Something big is happening. Big enough to alarm the White House. So big that the administration did an abrupt about-face regarding terrorism.

Terrorism's serious now -- driving major policy reversals. The administration just won't tell us why.

(snip)

But the administration's biggest policy reversal to date came from Holder, the longtime advocate of terrorist "rights," who offered one of the most belated acknowledgments in history when he told a TV network, "We're now dealing with international terrorism."

(snip)

And there wasn't a single mention of "man-caused disasters" this time around. Every administration point person talked "terrorism." Next thing you know, somebody in the White House will use the term "Islamist terrorist."

(snip)

Some revelation about the terrorist threat has shocked the president. It's about time.

The Kenyan will be a one-term president. Some state - we only need one - will pass a proof of natural born citizenship law to run in the state. He will not run. ;-)

Post from a duplicate thread. Thoughts?

It all might be related to the TAPI pipeline.

It all might be related to the TAPI pipeline. The Taliban has been opposed to the project since the eighties when Bush’s father broached it to them. THe pipeline must be started before the end of this year for NATO and the 4 primary country partners to stay involved. Also, a secondary pipeline involving the Pak port of Gadawar is involved with the state of Baluchistan.

To control the Taliban, Obama must expand into Pakistan with NATO all the way to the port. He needs the US terrorist/PAK Taliban connection to lever his way further into Pakistan.

Apparently there is a great deal of evidence of OTMs crossing from Mexico. Maybe Obama will reverse his open border policy. One success by terrorists using this route could solidfy his position on the wrong side of history.

Terrorist threat on border with Mexico

Snip: Farmer talked to an Arizona rancher who didn’t want to be identified because he’s afraid of the Mexican cartels who smuggle drugs near his property. He said he found a Muslim prayer rug on his ranch. “This is one more indication that there is a whole lot more than just a few Mexicans coming into the U.S.”.

A recent congressional report on the border threat confirmed members of Hezbollah have crossed the Southwest border. It shows photos of military jackets with Arab insignias found on the border. One depicts a picture of a plane crashing into the twin towers in New York City.

Law enforcement officials believe one of the world’s most wanted terrorists may have traveled into the U.S. in 2004 by coming through the mountains on the Mexico border. Federal agents confirmed Adnan Shurkajumah spent time in Atlanta just prior to Sep. 11th, and left on a bus. He is a Saudi Arabian pilot and bomb expert with a $5 million bounty on his head. In 2004,

Shurkajumah was one of seven Al-Qaida members agents were looking for after they were spotted in Central America and believed headed to the United States through Mexico . Federal agents now say Shurkajumah seems to have disappeared.

From your link:

Off-topic Weird **** out in the desert today - (pictures)

....some weird **** was or went down out in the desert over the past couple of days. A group of us went out to this place called Sheep's Bridge on the Verde River. It's a bridge that was built so sheep herders could cross the river. The bridge is about 30-35 miles from the freeway, through rough, mountainous terrain, on a maintained state Forest Road.

Okay, it's 100 degrees out, middle of the afternoon, and we see this weirdo out there in a ****ing Volkswagen.... , then .... what the F kind of drugs was this guy on? Not only was I shocked that he didn't break an axle, but the ****** is driving around in a chick car in 100 degree weather with the top down.... un-****ing-believable....

Then, a few miles before we arrive at the bridge, we see this Nissan Titan that went off the road. How this thing didn't flip over is beyond my comprehension... a few of us went down to see if there were any people in it and the door was open. We looked inside and the keys were in the ignition and I found a friggin' Qur'an.... The vehicle was registered to an 80 year old dude with an anglo name.

Looks to me like he woke up international terrorists and spurred them on to action...
