Radical Muslims are certain to try to strike in the US before the November election, and possibly this weekend. From AP:
WASHINGTON (AP) - A constant stream of intelligence indicating that al-Qaida wants to strike the United States this summer or fall has led federal officials to urge increased vigilance during the Independence Day weekend, but there is no specific threat of an attack timed to the holiday.In a bulletin sent to law enforcement agencies nationwide Thursday, the FBI said police should step up patrols and watch for signs of terrorist activity, including surveillance of potential targets. The FBI also listed advice on how to spot possible suicide bombers.
"We know the U.S. homeland remains a top al-Qaida target," the FBI said in the bulletin, sent weekly to 18,000 state and local law enforcement agencies.
Fourth of July celebrations are among the symbolic events that U.S. officials say could present an inviting target to al-Qaida, which intelligence reports indicate will attempt an attack during summer or fall. An attack also could be timed to coincide with the national political conventions or the November elections, plus the Olympics in August in Athens, Greece.
I don’t think an attack in the USA would have quite the same effect as a train bombing in Spain. In deed I would think it would ensure George has a job for another four years. Four years in which he would relentlessly pursue and persecute islamo fascists. Not a pleasant prospect for the islamos.
“Your grandchildren will pursue and persecute islamos.”
Anybody notice we haven't heard from Mahmoud in a while? I recall someone saying he was an Iraqi (or claimed to be). I hope he didn't do something stupid like this guy.
Canuck: An attack on the US this summer or fall may well be the best thing that ever happened to the Bush campaign. However, I'm sure that the FBI issued its warnings precisely because it's trying to do its job and keep the USA safe. If it succeeds, we'll probably gat Jean-Francois Kerry in office.

I have seen it being urged that muslims hold to their own parts of town, wherever they are in the US and other countries, if these bastards actually try this.
I wonder if the idiots realize their warnings to their own just sets them up to be right where angry citizens can find them? Whether they were part of the attack or not.
Hello
I am really having a hard time understanding the true motive of the terrorist. I use to think they hated jews then Americans. Now i see they kill each other. They are trying to prevent IRAQ from becoming a country which can be healthy and free. Better schools, healthcare, economy, voting and no more SADDAM. So why wont they allow this. And why beheading Americans. Or anyone else for that matter. If they fight because they are promoting Muslim religion. Then it sounds like they are describing a Satanic cult not a muslim religion. Does the Muslim book teach to kill anyone who is not a Muslim? I am trying to understand and am losing my patience with the Muslim religion. Why do the Muslims who are not ANTI american not speak out. Or show thanks for all we have done in two terrorist Muslim countries.
America is a wonderful country. And i am proud to be an American. Happy BIrthdaday America
