Um, someone is worried about something being trucked into Atlanta based upon the activity along I-20 West and East of Atlanta. If you live and drive artound that area, watch for the x-ray vans. I saw one on a recent trip to S.C. but it was at a truck weigh station.
Won’t stop these bloodlusting demons. They’ve been killing Moslems in their targeted buildings all along. The isnane mooslimbs consider these martyrs, heroically sacrificed by their fellow mooselimbs in the awar against the great and little satan.
” If Obama would stop bombing Pokiston maybe the Arab street would settle down. “
Why not just bomb the “Arab Street” and get it over with? Then we won’t have to be worrying all the time about it’s reaction to what we do.
Security forces with automatic weapons in plain view have been a staple at European airports since the 70s when there was the initial rash of Religion of Peace hijackings and airport massacres (remember when these all-peaceful Muslims slaughtered dozens of infidels at Rome’s airport?). In fact, the US has been one of the few countries that does not have intensive security armed to the teeth at their airports.
“Are we already at that point, where Europe, all of the mideast, Africa, Asia, and Mexico aren’t safe anymore?”
Mexico isn’t safe at all. The Mexican war against the cartels is going badly. Kidnapping is also big business down there. The cartels have kidnapped 10,000 people for ransom in the past six months alone, particularly in the southern part of the country in the border regions.
And even in the best of times down there, it isn’t really safe. You need to keep bribery cash on you at all times or you risk arrest. I heard on Tom Gresham’s GunTalk radio program that Mexican cops are known to set up roadblocks and anyone who doesn’t pay them a gratuity is arrested for made-up stuff. And then you spend the night in a Mexican jail... shudder!
As for Asia, the latest tensions between China and Japan aren’t good at all.
I don’t know about Africa. I have a personal rule that I don’t visit countries with animals that can eat me.
This is intentional. The extremists have learned our countermeasures, done dry runs, taken losses, had successes. Here's why we have times but no locations.
TIMING: Absolute secrecy is impossible, so they limit overseas communications to things that are easily coded. Even saying 'November 1st' might be a code for Dec 5th' or Oct 3rd. Or it might mean, 'strike whenever they get lax'.
LOCATIONS: Vaguely defining the target(s) magnifies their power immensely. It overloads our defenses and our senses. They want us to feel that nowhere is safe, and that any time could be dangerous. When you've got 30 operators, some of which might be outright decoys to lure our attention, that multiplies your effective power on a global scale.
RESOURCES: Tracking this many threats over this long a time eats up a huge amount of law enforcement and intelligence resources. They're realizing that the ratios are not at all in our favor. The longer they can string this stuff out, the easier it is to wear us down.
KNOW YOUR ENEMY: They're showing us enough to make us sweat, without tipping their hands to the most important information that would let us stop them. Also, they're learning how long it takes for information to leak, and they're getting good at watching us tip our own hand.
This is an evolution in terrorist tactics that we've been observing for a while. We are very predictable, and they're adapting constantly.
Inasmuch as that has an extremely high probability of their contracting a fatal case of lead poisoning, I'd concur wholeheartedly that they would not venture into such areas, and seek softer targets...

tank you...
So tell us how often you dream of 72 virgins.....
In mac daddies case are they men or women?????
