#1 Posted: 5/7/2012 4:47:52 PM "The plot involved an upgrade of the underwear bomb that failed to
detonate aboard a jetliner over Detroit on Christmas 2009. This new bomb
was also designed to be used in a passenger's underwear, but this time
al Qaeda developed a more refined detonation system, U.S. officials
said."

At some point you have to question how al Qaeda can be so dumb. You would think they could utilize domestic cells and target subways and buses as in England and Spain instead of constantly picking on the airlines.
Things that make you say, "Hmmmm"

#6 Posted: 5/8/2012 12:03:04 AM I for one am extremely skeptical of this. Train69 is correct in so many ways.

In April, The Washington Post newspaper said that the CIA was asking for
authorisation to carry out more drone strikes in Yemen.

Why would that even make the paper? Thats the whole point. They want you to keep thinking about this garbage and being afraid so you wont worry about $4 per gallon gas and an unemployment rate of probably close to 20% (the 8.4% the spew is straight garbage because people stop being counted when their benefits run out)......Its all a distraction......

#15 Posted: 5/8/2012 1:01:47 PM Most know I'm not a huge conspiracy guy in general, but I have no doubt the government would make something like this up just so it continues to be in citizens' minds and so it looks like they are on top of things and doing a good job.  |

#16 Posted: 5/8/2012 1:15:09 PM Just out of curiosity, I know people are skeptical about this, but do you guys think that there are not people and organizations out there in active planning for ways to strike the US again?

i do believe such, but my mistrust of our gov't makes me skeptical of many things...probably too much at times. |

I have zero doubt there are people/groups plotting attacks or whatever. The problem is.....I dont care. How much should you really worry about being attacked or bombed or whatever? What good can come from worrying about something you cant control or possibly defend yourself against? I have enough stuff to focus on in my day to day life than to worry about if someone has a bomb in their underwear or if we are gonna be able to get a couple more drone attacks in on Yemen.......

Wasn't the USS Cole hit by Israel by "accident." Was it a way to get Al queda in the media. |

I think there are people out there who would like to attack the US...and are probably planning attacks. What blows my mind is why they haven't recently. |

#22 Posted: 5/9/2012 11:46:29 AM no one mentioned that the CIA trained and funded these so called terrorist
except this govt official, she confessed WE trained and funded them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzqD0271LMk
CIA is the co-conspirator in creating terrorism....they started this false flag terror in order to save their jobs and funding.

they have been weakened by US drone strikes
they have been weakened by the growth of democracy in the Arab world.
They are weak
