Rush's fill in says police have BOLO for two hispanic men. When asked could they be M.E.'ers, source said - could be. Then the host went on to tie Gertz's book on 9/11 where a known Al-Qaeda cell was active in Prince George's County in the same town as one of the shootings.

My thought is - since we are in a war, what would it hurt to treat attacks like these as if they were intentional terror (US federal support) attacks? Seems like a better default proposition when our capitol starts looking more like the Gaza than hometown USA.

Well, it would be alot simpler to call in the Feds if Tom Daschle had acted to pass the Homeland Security Bill. Maybe that's the reason they are so slow to admit that this is terrorism.
I am told that residents of Maryland who have homes elsewhere are leaving the area, maybe permanently. They sure think that it is terrorism.

When will the conspiracy freaks be claiming the US Government is behind these killings? Any guesses?

Probably not a good idea to think of every such incident as ME terrorists since there are so many domestic nutcases the false alarms would only make people complacent or cause people not to take known terrorist acts seriously.

Already happened earlier today on the long thread about the killings.

If there are two men who are involved in "random" shootings, one has to assume that these are not your typical gang members (who basically kill over turf wars). Nor are these your typical serial killers (who with the exception of the Hillside Stranglers are people who work alone).
Thus my conclusion is that these are terrorist acts. They should BOLO for middle easterners who may look hispanic rather than the reverse.

This type of attack could function as cover to move equipment into Washington.
Every policemen in the area is looking for a white truck with black lettering. Are we looking away while the rabbit is being put in the hat?
We might not be at war with Iraq, but they might be at war with us.

The host is Roger Hedgecock out of San Diego. A caller also pointed out that among the terrorists recently arrested in Portland, was one who was caught shooting in a gravel pit shortly after 9/11/2001 due to a noise complaint. He was with others, all dressed in ME garb.

When will the conspiracy freaks be claiming the US Government is behind these killings? Any guesses? I'll guess a conspiracy. Anti-gun nuts hired a killer because their funding is way down. (I don't trust 'em after a Million Mom Marcher gave a neighbor kid a gun to shoot at kids in school.)

Hey I work in the Laurel area and
there was/is a huge network of Arabs around here and apparently an Al Qaeda cell with a big mideast bigwig heading it up.
I mean, if NBC is saying they think its a white male based on demographic probability, why cant you specifically say whats most likely the perps. This is their MO, top to bottom, according to captured al Qaeda documents..

Movement into washington, or maybe Chicago - head fake.
To: TheDon
These kinds of shootings were supposedly part of al Qaeda's gameplan--I remember reading about this maybe a month ago or more.
To: epluribus_2
Then the host went on to tie Gertz's book on 9/11 where a known Al-Qaeda cell was active in Prince George's County in the same town as one of the shootings.What does Gertz say about this?
I just posted the following in another thread:
Here's a curious fact:
One of the 9/11 hijackers, Hani Hanjour, had tried to rent a plane in Bowie, MD. (He was turned down because his flight skills were so poor; he was allowed three qualifying test flights during the second week of August.) See this Newsday article.
Just a coincidence? Or is there a continuing al-Qaeda presence in that area?

I hope parents in the area have chosen to homeschool.

They should BOLO for middle easterners who may look hispanic rather than the reverse. I think that "two swarthy males" does just fine.

Apparently there lived there a well connected Egyptian who flew the coup after 9-11. I see a few of them around here now and then. This is definitely one of their magnet places, along with Trenton, NJ, I believe..
