Sleeper Cells in the United States and Canada

There is every reason to suspect that we will endure suicide missions by Islamist sleeper cells. They are already in place. They are waiting for the right time.

American Thinker: Sleeper Cells in the United States and Canada

I hope our guys can stop them before they attack.

"The saudis knew Saddam had WMDs & would use them...."
I have a friend that came back & said she didn't understand why the media was saying there weren't any because they were being taken out of Iraq by the truckloads. They're probably here now waiting to be used in the US.

Some people enjoy fear... I guess that's why they make horror movies...

WTF? Kafir is banned but Yukon is waltzing around like he owns the place.

If this fellow is the intel that our nation relies upon, then no wonder we are in such a mess in Iraq.

-snip-

During January 2003 and Feb 2003, Saudi Intelligence officers would boast that the American military was overreacting about Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction. Their bravery changed as we approached the invasion of Iraq in Mar 2003. The high-ranking Saudi officers were scrambling to obtain gas masks and other protective equipment. They knew their equipment was substandard and they wanted U.S.-made protective equipment. We gave them some of ours. The Saudi Intelligence officers were visibly frightened about a potential chemical, biological, or nuclear attack and expressed their fears. This was my first confirmation Saddam Hussein still had WMD material and the capability to use them.

The Saudis knew Saddam had WMD and would use them if he had the opportunity.
-snip-

Now help me out here, the Saudis existed unafraid of Iraq's WMDs and scoffed at the USA's overreaction to same. They were so unafraid of Iraq that they never developed or purchased equipment to protect themselves from the weapons. It wasn't until the USA began to invade that they were concerned and asked for our equipment. So what does that imply? Does it indicate that the Saudis were suddenly afraid of Saddam's weaponry though they had never been afraid of it before despite being susceptible to attack as one of his neighbors? Or does it indicate that they were not sure what weaponry the USofA would be utilizing and their trust for our tactics was what caused them to ask for the same type of protective gear as what our soldiers were using?

Fear of an unknown and/or being ready for the possiblities does not equate to proof of the existence of WMDs and to draw the conclusion that it does is faulty logic and really piss poor intelligence work, imho.

Four primary suspected WMD sites were located. We tried from April until July 2003 to have the Iraq Survey Group come and excavate these sites. They advised us they did not have the manpower nor the heavy equipment needed to excavate the sites, which were underground bunkers (beneath waterways). We were frustrated. I have received information from various sources that the WMD I had attempted to have excavated was subsequently looted (after the war) and transferred to Syria.

Heavy equipment was necessary to excavate suspected sites thus delays arose, yet, looters after the war were able to remove and transfer the WMDs to Syria? How does that work? Are the looters some superhumans that could excavate sites without heavy equipment? We all know this administrations "shock & awe" plan was inadequate as it didn't provide the necessary military to secure Iraq and it allowed for looting, but I had no idea looters were this capable.

3. We found numerous pieces of evidence indicating WMD were in Iraq before the war began and some were still in Iraq. (Yet he said above that they found no WMDs because they were removed by looters?????)

Now I am not saying there are not cells in the US, there probably are. This administration has done a poor job of security our borders and protecting soft targets, they have wasted their time, energies and money fighting a war in Iraq (a nation with no connection to 9/11, that posed no threat to our nation and that didn't have WMDs). I'm just saying there are definite flaws in this guy's logic and if he is the intel we are using then no wonder.

I agree, in part, with his assessment here:

Vulnerability at home

Upon returning from Iraq I left Federal Service to pursue a career educating U.S. law enforcement in the U.S. I wrote a book titled "Arabic for law enforcement and military". During my lectures to local, county, and state law enforcement officers it was revealed the true first line defenders in the U.S. are not trained nor prepared to combat terrorism in the U.S. (through no fault of their own). The local law enforcement agencies were not receiving adequate funds or assistance from the Federal Government to fight terrorism. The majority advised they were supposed to be the first line defenders, but in actuality they did not even know what Al-Qaeda meant, and/or could not point out Iraq or Iran on a map. They had no Arabic language training.

I have said since the invasion began, the war would take away from our needs at home. Unless or until we become a military state, law enforcement agencies are our defenders and they do need to be properly funded and trained and equipped. Grant monies that were once available to law enforcement under Clinton (community policing, etc) were cut by the Bush administration and law enforcement is struggling.

I'm not sure I agree with the concern over where Iraq is on the map (though I supposed every citizen should know how to locate the nation we have invaded on the map), but I do agree that we need to support and shore up our law enforcement and security at home. I also was under the impression that the purpose of the Patriot Act was to improve communications between agencies and that communication flow should include local law enforcement agencies. If it hasn't, then there is just yet another failing of this administration.

2. Our nuclear research centers were very vulnerable to an attack and the potential for a suicide bomber using a dirty radiological bomb from these facilities was and is a high probability. Note: Vic Walter and Brian Ross of ABC News did an excellent report on the lack of security at these facilities. I received an enormous amount of information from individuals associated with Russian nuclear programs that there is nuclear material being sold on the black market and nuclear material is in the hands of Islamic Extremists.

This is on point and you don't have to be an intel agent to know this. As I have said before, our administration has failed us - they have not secured soft targets at home and the securing of same would not entail infringing our constitutional rights. The securing of chemical plants, oil refineries, nuclear plants, the ports, etc, would probably entail curtailing the rights of corporations, but despite what this administration thinks, corporations do not have individual rights.

YEAH, WHAT'S UP WITH THAT???

Hmmm...no comment, huh?
