Breaking News! Chertoff gut feeling was right!
Edited on Thu Jul-12-07 05:25 PM by firefox_fan
Just a big red breaking news banner on CNN...

"Al Qaeda is stepping up efforts to sneak terrorists into the U.S. and has rebuilt most of its capability to strike here, an intelligence estimate states, according to The Associated Press."

2. So, does this mean the war of terror is working?
Let's see, 6 years later Al Quaida is back to 2001 level. It seems to show lack of any progress despite the huge expense. I must be getting something wrong.

8. But....but.. we are fighting them there........
forget it. I never believed that lie and I do not expect anyone else to buy it.
I am also pretty damn sure that if the evil empire cannot get what it wants, it
will create another attack to build fear.

11. It SEEMS to me that, given this, we should get back all the soldiers
so they can defend us here.... Or what is left of our soldiers.
