Al-Qaida may launch attacks against Veterans Affairs hospitals, the FBI warned in a nationwide terrorism bulletin that lists Aurora as one of two targets under possible reconnaissance this year.

Federal officials say there is no credible information about specific threats against hospitals, but the bulletin said they may be more attractive targets than heavily guarded military bases.

There's no imminent danger, no credible threat," he said.

What there is, is confusion

Sooo, threat or no threat? Scaring veterans who are utilizing their health benefits sounds more Bushian than Al Qaidi-ish.. MKJ

what a crock!

point it at injured vets.

Does anyone wanna take the bet that within the next decade, some vet with PTSD takes out one or more of the BFEE?

And says the staff has discussed the possibility of dealing with an armed vet, suffering from PTSD combined with the reduction/termination of vet benefits...they often have to be put in the untenable position of having to explain to vets that benefits they thought were ironclad guaranteed have been diminished or eliminated. Our vets are quickly becoming the most disenfranchised population, for health care, in the country. MKJ

sorry, I forgot to post the link to the article.

At every turn they are dissed, with benefits cut and service questioned and trivialized. The Naked Emperor is so arrogant, he thinks they are his servants--slaves, really--wbom he can order into battle, use up, burn out and throw away while he observes from the sidelines while a concubine stuffs grapes in his mouth while sitting on his face.

on edit: "terrorist" threats are a good way to keep lackeys under his thumb, trembling in fear and awe.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Should I bother keeping you all informed if anything Terra-ble happens?

to scare vets into voting for Bush. These folks are so transparent and more obvious than ever. Sign of desperation.

And NYC is about to be overun by Dem mice.

...orphanages and clinics for the blind.
