**Warning** - - Guess what? The pre-election TERRA ALERTS have begun

MIAMI (Reuters) - The FBI arrested seven people in the past two days suspected of planning attacks on FBI offices and a federal building in Miami and the Sears Tower in Chicago, a law enforcement source said on Thursday.

I just posted something on this today about when the republican cowards would drag out the color-coded terra chart to attempt to scare the shit out of everyone -- just like Ashcroft tried to do before the '04 election. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x1482529

Brace yourself folks for many weeks and months ahead of this bullshit as we approach the November mid-terms.

1. Oh of course, silly me.

There will probably be a regular schedule of these then..

A whole bunch now to get our attention, then a lull,
then a small burst in, oh, mid July, another lull, a pop in late July

another flurry in early September (before the great 9/11 remembrances)

a lull

And then another big bunch in mid October to usher in election day..

2. For the record, while I was reading your post Deja Vu (No kidding)

That was odd...

5. "Suspected terra cell." ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS.

Will they be held without trial? Will they be given basic American rights? Who is protecting these CITIZENS?

8. I actually KNOW someone who was deported as a "terrorist"

The guy is a diminutive Japanese guy who went home to arrange a marriage for himself..He's about 4'9", speaks very broken english, and was here legally.. On his return trip to the US, at his FINAL destination, he threw a hissy-fit when customs wanted to search his stuff..and the cuffed him. put him in detention, and later sent him back to Japan...The irony? His bride to be is now HERE, and HE's stuck in Japan, apparently never to return...and she wants to STAY here :)

When I found out, I actually laughed because he looks like a 4th grader, and could NEVER be considered a threat.. My guess is that he was cranky after the long flight back, and just said the wrong thing..

6. I don't know.......could be true

What better way could the terraists have to destroy this country than to make weak plans for the current dufuses to find and then they use it to get re-elected.

Then al queda etal sit back and watch the next two years of this country imploding and all they had to do was leak threats and laugh at the sheeple.

7. We don't know very much about this yet...

we should save our criticisms until they can be laser focused after the press conference tomorrow. But from what we know now, this sounds like entrapment, but thankfully there are still judges and juries to figure that out. If these people are innocent and the claim doesn't have to go to appeal, then I think they will exonerated. If they are guilty, I am glad we caught them.

Despite what many people think there really is an organization called al-Qaeda, and they really don't like us, and they really did attack our country. It is so unfortunate our nation was distracted from the real war on terror in Afghanistan.

9. But the point being a lot of us feel we're going to start seeing

a lot more of these types of announcements in an attempt to try to show that the administration is going a good job protecting the country, therefore why risk your security by voting for the Democrats in November.

10. 9/11 was preceded with only Clinton stopping terror attacks...

the Iranian 9/11 needs to be preceded with Bush stopping a few first.

11. Yep and it is always a Florida connection....

Go Fiqure. Its terrible that I feel doubts about anything that happens with this Administration in charge. They are so devious. I don't trust them in any news that happens. Funny the Chief of the FBI was on Larry King when this broke. Being his arrogant self. Nope don't trust any of these crimminals in the Bush Camp.
