The senators were told that "al-Qaida snipers might be looming near golf courses, ready to pick them off," according to Capitol Police Spokeswoman Marcia Krug, as quoted in the Hotline Oct. 21.

I must have missed this bit of news.

I remember reading at the time that members of Congress had been warned. I don't remember reading this particular quote.

It was out there. Only the Senate was warned though. I think there was even a thread here about it.

Yes, I agree there seems to be connections between Muhammad and Al-Qaida, and Al-Fuqra.

• There seems to be solid terrorist connections in Baton Rouge, and Muhammad kept returning to B.R. before every major event
• Baton Rouge had a link to an anthrax suspect from Maryland.
• Baton Rouge is home to one Taliban soldier, Yaser Hamdi, we caught in Afghanistan this spring.
• Within one week of this Taliban capture, Baton Rouge became the home of the first-ever USA human outbreak of west-nile-virus.
• Muhammad was in Baton Rouge just before visiting Antigua in August 2002 to furniture shop, and set up the $10 Million ransom Electronic Funds Transfer with banking accomplices (my bet is on John Ferris, the investment banker and treasurer in Antigua)
• Muhammad returned to Baton Rouge to pick up his rifle and ammunition
• Muhammad was in Baton Rouge just before starting to car-shop (in Tacoma)
• Muhammad returned to Baton Rouge with the new Caprice sniper car (to show it off? to make plans?)
• October 3rd, between killings #5 and #6, Muhammad telephoned someone at a cell-phone in Baton Rouge [an accomplice]
• FBI visited Baton Rouge in November to tear up his old stomping grounds and confiscate more tree stumps
• FBI has let it slip that Muhammad is positively linked to an Al-Fuqra terror-cell in Georgia.
• I found the article again, last night, that says Malvo's mother was FOUND IN DC by investigators. There is plenty of evidence that someone in DC aided and abetted this pair at times. HOW CAN WE PETITION INS to NOT hurry and deport her? Prosecute her FIRST!!!
• I'm also looking into two shootings in Mobile AL, about the times M & M were passing thrum and it sounds like their handywork. I think one was Sept 20, and the other was Sept 29. One had a mysterious WHITE CAR in the story. Remember the 2nd shooter car being hunted on Oct 23rd - white 1989 Chevrolet Celebrity with Maryland plates ZWE-517

Fred, you're not scrupulously reading all your pings. :)

Boast of Killing Golfers is Alleged (Sniper Case - Arizona, Florida,...)

There's other indications of terr. For example, the economic style of targeting. There's personal quirks to, no doubt. And Muhammed's friend in Wash. said he couldn't talk about certain things M told him. Hmmm...

The way I see it, if there are terr links, the Feds will only release them if Clintonite PCism is overcome, and they weigh that the economic downfall is not substantial. For example, the cover story about Hadayet at the L.A. airport being a "personal" outburst helps keep the sheeple flying.

Too bad you don't get and watch CNN.
