Al-Qaida plots new attacks on U.S. soil - be afraid of this -
Edited on Tue Jul-17-07 10:50 PM by Skip Intro
- very afraid:

"The number of homegrown extremists in the U.S. and its Western allies is growing, fueled by Internet web sites and anti-American rhetoric. "

Among the threats to the homeland, you know, anti-American sites. What exactly is anti-American rehtoric?

"as memories of Sept. 11 fade and nations' views diverge on what the real threat is..."

of course.

Its not like we're reminded of it every five fucking minutes or anything.

ahem, sorry.

The whole thing is at the link. I'm sure its not the first time posted, but seems like something that bears repeating.

They're coming to get us.

...attempting to make people leery of the Internet, so when they dismantle it and control it,
there will stand that 29 percent of idiots who will say, "Heck ya! The Internet needed to
be controlled, cuz if we don't the terrists will take it over!".

Furthermore, it also sounds like they're getting tired of people criticizing their failed,
sickening, warmongering, bullshit policies. They're equating criticism of them as criticism
of America.

They're taking it a step further and equating criticism of America as the
work of "extremists" who just don't remember 9/11 and are being disloyal to the motherland.

Hello...is it Fascism yet?
