1. aw pfft. . Check page 22 or 27 in Tuesday's paper. . .
We'll find out the intel is a few months old, and was delivered by some feverish teenager.

15. Here's a mention...
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/11/nyregion/11threat.html?ref=nyregion

The Police Department set up checkpoints on Friday in Lower Manhattan and increased security after learning of a vague threat of a radiological attack.

Funny how no one put a byline on it, though.

11. Maybe we can file a class action lawsuit
against rove the turd for trying to scare every one to death with his phony terror alerts.

16. I'm astounded that the NYTimes, Reuters and the Daily News
all cited Debka in their stories. This shows a whole new level of media gullibility.

Isn't using Debka as a source as bad as putting Limbaugh on TV as an election analyst?

17. Seattle-lites
Indie media Seattle has been going off on their fear of a false flag operation a couple of weeks from now when a terror drill will be happening in Seattle and in two, I think, other cities. That fear is based upon the knowledge that both the 9-11 and 7-7 attacks occurred while a training exercise was going on. 7/7's training drill included one of the subways that was actually bombed.

More moderate and conservative political animals think indie media is nuts. To me it's just a measure of how much the bush junta is distrusted.
