Question: I too have been wondering if it isn't a terrorist cell,however, wouldn't you think if it was, then there would be others terrorising different states across the country ? Anyone have an idea of why they are not and why just one state ?

Maybe its a cover operation like people have been suggesting. Draw the LEOs from DC, attack the city center. Or maybe its a rogue cell. Or maybe its designed to slowly terrorize the populous ie a horror movie rather than a bang bang bang attack ie 9/11. Lots of people who dont live in the DC area still dont think its a big deal, maybe these people want to give people a false sense of security before hitting their home town. or it could be a home-grown wacko, pissed because the Redskins suck.
