"Standing in the long shadow of the Stratosphere tower, the Econo Lodge at 1150 Las Vegas Blvd. South caters to vacationing families and touts clean accommodations at bargain rates."

"For three days this summer, the 120-room motel was home to a man identified as Mohammed al-Amir al-Sayed Atta, a 33-year-old Egyptian urban planner listed as one of 19 terrorists who hijacked commercial jetliners and flew them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Authorities said they believe Atta was at the controls of American Airlines Flight 11, a Boeing 767 en route from Boston to Los Angeles that slammed into the World Trade Center's north tower at 8:45 a.m. on Sept. 11."

The last lines of that article are chilling:

"A father's anguished admonishments aside, mounting evidence shows Atta's secretive path traveled through Las Vegas on his way to infamy."

"The question is: Why was he here?"

Atta was in Las Vegas on three different occasions last summer, with the apparent purpose of coordinating with the other pilots.

Let us pray that the FBI, local law enforcement, etc. are checking out the guest rosters of all the motels and hotels.

Scary.

The only thing I can think of in Las Vegas that a terrorist would love to destroy and could cause horrible damage is Hoover Dam! Of course I hope this has already been thought of and security will be stepped up even more. But they could also be planning suicide bombers in casinos.
