6 whole months since the last Terror Alert, what's that tell you?
Edited on Tue May-03-05 05:37 AM by mopaul


gosh i miss the old terror alerts and the color coded chart and the osama tapes. the last osama tape was halloween, right before the election. booga booga, i'm osama! where'd they all go?

you can't really second guess the nazicons, but i just wonder why six whole months have gone by without the old terror buzz. now they've been reduced to zarqawi rumors and sightings and last minute escapes.

it's too quiet.

1. We don't need them anymore...they accomplished their mission...
unlike some other unnamed people who strut around in cowboy boots and flights suits that they are not entitled to. But, who's counting anyway?:eyes:

5. I would bet money on that one.
They will need to instill fear in the population once again.
But the question is will they need a terror attack to renew the fear factor?

12. It tells me, either
they currently aren't needed to advance the next Bush agenda or we are about to get shithammered with some terrorist event again to keep people's knees knocking. I hope the first of the two is the truth, not another freaking catastrophe guaranteed to horrify us.

15. Absolutely true.
It's the caged animal syndrome. As soon as they see a chance to strike, they will. And of course, Bush will find a way to use it to his advantage, again.
