Did you know that Iran is apprehending and jailing Al-Qaida?
http://www.janes.com/security/international_security/news/jir/jir050804_1_n.shtml

snip:

"the Intelligence Minister, announced that his ministry had intercepted an Al-Qaeda cell that planned to launch attacks in Tehran while also uncovering plans to assassinate Sunni students at a theological school in Iran "who were co-operating with Iranian authorities". Yunesi also stated that some 3,000 Al-Qaeda members had been detained, jailed or tried in Iran or deported."

6. I don't think it matters...
*something* is about to happen.

I hope to God I'm wrong, but I feel that something is about to be staged to, once again, steer (and place fear into) public opinion.

I fear it will be pretty big. Gird thyself and keep your powder dry. Make sure you are able to protect yourself and your family...and hope I am wrong.
