OK here's my problem:<br><br>1. is it real or a diversion?<br><br>2. BW (before W), I'd never consider this, but they've cried "wolf" so often you naturally think of this possibility.<br><br>3. They say 2 dozen terrorists but name none, even if they did- so what how do we know they're real?<br><br>4. Remember the 7 cubans in Fla a few months back... they were in the 'dream stage" so say the Bush admin... but were they even real ?<br><br>I'm not saying it's fake, but given the polls and sinking support for Iraq- (60% now against war)<br> who the fsck knows... ?? mind games !! or reality?<br>or another example they can use to justify reducing our civil liberties?<br><br>David (OFI)<br>

All I'm hearing is that Democrats and Ned Lamont are the new America-hating terrorists. These Pakistan-trained al-Q types have some catching up to do before November if Mehlman, Snow or Cheney have anything to say about it. <br><br><br><br><br><br>

<blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>3.

They generally don't release names until intent/connection to crime has been made. They thus also end up with less villified innocent people too (that's the one thing about US crime/media I really dislike - someone gets arrested and they're splashed over the front page for a week, then the cops say "oh sorry wrong guy" and the media drops it - but in the minds of the people that guy was guilty).<br><br><br>- This is gonna get pretty interesting. <br>- Define "interesting". <br>- Oh, God, oh, God, we're all gonna die..
