NEWS: "Credible terror threats at lowest level since 9/11"
Reports of credible terrorist threats against the United States are at their lowest level since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, according to U.S. intelligence officials and federal and state law enforcement authorities.

:rofl:

Yeah, we noticed! No more "Code orange" alerts! (By the way, does this mean they will have the balls to knock the "color wheel" down to green or blue?) No more trotting out Tom Ridge! All it took was an election with the "correct" results. Hmmmmm......

1. FUX News still reports...
the terra' level on the hour I believe. We can't have our citizens letting down their guard. We can't have them regaining sanity by not being reminded that terraists' are marching down your street, either.

4. Are you serious?
Good grief. No other station does that that I know of. I don't watch faux news so I wouldn't know. They're using the old Hitler play book for sure. Keep people so scared. The only way you're not going to worry about that is if a) you turn off your tv b) you know they're all fake. How would we know when we have a real terror alert?

3.  "Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States." (08-06-01 PDB)
... wasn't a credible threat, according to our, oh, so truthful.:sarcasm:government...

RICE: You said, did it not warn of attacks. It did not warn of attacks inside the United States. It was historical information based on old reporting. There was no new threat information. And it did not, in fact, warn of any coming attacks inside the United States.

(From the transcript of National security adviser Condoleezza Rice's 9/11 commission statement.)

http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/04/08/rice.transcript/


'Reports of credible threats' will go up when and if those in power feel the need to manipulate public fear again. If a terrorist / terrorist event MIHOPs, LIHOPs, or just slips through the Grand Canyon sized cracks in so-called 'Homeland Security', it will be used to justify whatever is next on their agenda... Iran, N. Korea, Syria, Cuba, whatever.

Have they even used the color code BS after the the election which yielded the 'correct' results? Haven't heard mention of any colors other than Red & Blue since the election, as in Red States, Blue States.

And where do the Reds & Blues fit on the color code system?
