| Attorney General's Blunt Warning on Terror Attacks |
| 2010-12-22 |
| This is not a slip of the tongue. He does not mention Islam or Muslim even once in the article. "The threat has changed from simply worrying about foreigners coming here, to worrying about people in the United States, American citizens -- raised here, born here, and who for whatever reason, have decided that they are going to become radicalized and take up arms against the nation in which they were born," he said. In the last 24 months, Holder said, 126 people have been indicted on terrorist-related charges, Fifty of those people are American citizens. "I think that what is most alarming to me is the totality of what we see, the attorney general said. "Whether it is an attempt to bomb the New York City subway system, an attempt to bring down an airplane over Detroit, an attempt to set off a bomb in Times Square ... I think that gives us a sense of the breadth of the challenges that we face, and the kinds of things that our enemy is trying to do." Holder says many of these converts to al Qaeda have something in common: a link to radical cleric Anwar Al Awlaki, an American citizen himself. |

| #2 What pisses me off with this is that we are going to live out our big fear. We tried to keep the Islamic movement out of the US, but the PC police said it was not Islam, just some bad men that derailed it. Well, they were wrong and they bet our future on their rose colored glasses. Now Islam is rooted, like cancer in our society, thanks to all the types that said Islam is not bad, just some of them. It was all wrong, ALL of islam is bad, it has always been bad. Some will say, I know some muslims and they are against the terrorists. Well, ladies and gentlemen, under Islam, they would get the ax. There is no room for moderates in Islam, only radicals in islam. Before too long we will get to experience the car burnings and bombings of Europe, we are only a few years behind. As much as I think Holder is a wimp, we have been traveling down this road for 20 years and now Holder is just stating the obvious. He is afraid America will lose a city or or worse on his watch and be the patsy for the downfall of America in the worlds history books. He has every right to be afraid! I only wih we had men and women in washington as brave and bold as the soldiers serving them... Rant/off |

| #1 ...You know, if I were a paranoid type, I'd think about the number of comments that have been made about us being able to 'take a hit', and wonder if the Leadership knows something is going to happen... Just sayin'. Mike |
