Senators warned of terrorist attack on US by July

Well, in a manner of speaking, if they (the planners) have engaged in ANY electronic communications in the course of their planning then they've done the next best thing to sending a written invitation! There's a reason why OBL stopped using a cell phone. If you send a signal anywhere on this planet, the NSA can pick it up. The NSA's problem isn't so much picking up the signal as separating the signal (information you want to know about what the opposing force is doing/thinking/planning) from the noise (everything else).

I hope that Al Qaeda is being stupid enough to send electronic signals but a long time ago, when the OPFOR wasn't Al Qaeda but the Soviet Union, my commanding officer told me that the other guy didn't owe use the favor of being either stupid or insane.

It is what it is. I have come to this conclusion. If I cant drive there I probably wont go. I would not want to live in any metro area.

With Al Qaeda they have proven to be very calculating in their planning. If it takes years then it does. I think something will happen very soon. I'm not sure what but it will.

Its wise to be prepared just in case. At least to some extent or as best you can.

Mounting evidence suggests female suicide bombers are the wave of the future.

There were several attempted attacks last year. For anyone in the know to state that there would not be attempts in the next six months would be the height of ignorance. Of course there will be attempts, it's an on-going thing now. This is nothing more than business as usual.

Did you mean psychologically? if you did, I agree; there is no way to prepare for a shock of that magnitude.

On the other hand, if you really meant psychically, well *smiles* yes those of us who are psychic can prepare. Not only that, those of us who are psychic very often do our best to prevent such things from happening, just as those who pray for safety do.

*gently* You don't actually know that, Andrew. You might believe it, like you believe in love or like you believe in God; but you don't know it for certain like you know that water is wet or fire is hot.

Can you see the difference here? It might be logical to assume that a major city will be lost, but it isn't guaranteed. We don't actually know it.

My understanding of the way spiritual and psychic energy operate is this: every time someone insists that something bad or negative will happen, it cancels out the energy of their positive requests and/or efforts.

We get what we ask for. That means whatever we put our energy, attention, focus, or beliefs in is what we will get. The more careful we are to avoid insisting that the answer will be no (especially when we don't actually know what the answer will be!), the more we will get what we really want. The more careful we are to focus on positive outcomes and to avoid believing that bad things "have to" happen, the more good things will happen.

This doesn't mean that a person can necessarily avoid life challenges like accidents or illnesses by thinking happy thoughts--hey, sometimes shit happens--but it does mean people can make their lives better by not insisting that bad things have to happen.

And yanno... speaking as one of those psychics who sends a lot of energy towards safety, I appreciate not having to wade through fields of negativity to do my job.

I meant mentally prepared. If psychics can keep a nuclear device from exploding, more power to them. I was using psychic to mean mental/psychological and should probably have realized that using the term would cause confusion.

Well, Aj, maybe some psychics can; I've seen some pretty amazing things lately.

I personally cannot affect the physical world so directly. BUT what I can influence, what I'd like to think I DO influence, is the likelihood of it ever coming to that. You have to follow it backwards from the thing you wish to prevent; you have to think about all the causes of such a thing, layer by layer, and figure out what one small thing you can do that would switch the whole train of events onto some other, more benign, track.

Sometimes the most powerful thing a person can do is to ask those around her to hold onto hope. There is always power in numbers. If a large number of people is determined that safety should prevail, I believe it is more likely to prevail... and in the meantime, if it does nothing else, it creates more positive lives for those people, since hope breeds optimism and creativity.

the comments found after this article just reminded me how ignorant some people are.........and sadly they live in this country.........

If you want security on a plane..........do whatever the Israelis are doing..........nothing happens on their planes.

Say NO to body scans............ignorant crap in the same vein as take your shoes off and putting all your liquids in 3oz bottles in baggies......oh yeah and no bic lights but you can have up to 3 packs of matches.......

[AtLast]

Probably a very ideological take on this, but when do Western nations transform the basis of what we stand for to Muslim nations as a means to thwart terrorist attacks?

the israelis don't play around with bullshit. they know who you are before you get to the airport. you must be at their terminal 3 hours preflight. no exceptions. they check all baggage, loaded or carried on. they check you. ID and so on. they double check all information. If the slightest thing is not right.you do not get your ticket and you do not board that plane. and this is their philadelphia terminal. Once you land in Israel, you are checked again. there are armed soldiers everywhere. they are non threatening and quite friendly. however they are not to be fuked with.

add to that, every flight has security personal on board every plane. They take security very seriously.

once out of the airport. there are security check points and armed soldiers on the streets. again, non threatening and friendly but i would not play with them.

I spent 2 weeks in Israel. it was a wonderful trip. I had a very nice time but you become ever mindful of personal safety and security.

Hardly a wave.

Anyways. There has indeed been an increase in the number of suicide attacks carried out by womyn. Perhaps the real question here though isn't how many but why.

The why is easy--we don't expect it. If you know your enemy expects you to come by land, drop in by air or come by sea. If you know your enemy expects you to come through the door, go in through a window. If you know your enemy is expecting a man, send a woman.

As my old commanding officer used to say "never assume that the other guy owes you the favor of being either stupid or insane". Having women carry out the attacks that men were carrying out is very good tactics on their part.
Always do that which your opponent isn't expecting you to do and which is within your capabilities to pull off.
