The only thing we have to fear is not having enough counsellors to help us deal with our fear.

I hate to say this, but if Al-Qaeda and the Islamists were not involved, they will soon adopt such techniques...as one cannot imagine a more efficient way to conduct terror: two people, one gun, 13 bullets, one car and three states terrorized for several weeks.

*golf clap*

Allah be praised, the infidel thinks he is being funny-- but he has captured precisely the American infidels' attitude: "They caught the bad guys-- now we can go back to our self-absorbed complacency. Now everything bad gets to happen SOMEWHERE ELSE again!"

Our holy warrior brethren are counting on this! Allah has blessed the infidel with short memories and attention spans! Praise be to Allah!

golf clap? golfers have their own form of the clap? the things you learn here in the blogosphere

I don't think we are safe until Mr. Instapundit unravels the meaning of The Riddle about the Rabbit and the Duck.

Remember, these guys are not exactly intellectuals. Then again, if Mr. Instapundit thinks that because the older one converted to MuslimHood at one point, these are TERRORISTs, while encouraging the government and media to disinform TERRORISTs ... are our children going to be safe again from people like these?
Not in our lifetime.
Once more then. This time it's not even funny.
The Culture of Fear: Why Americans Are Afraid of the Wrong Things

I,for one,do not believe Al-Queda will resort to using snipers as part of their terrorism tactics.

Despite what we have all so horrifyingly witnessed of 'sniper terrorism' as being probably the truest form of terrorism in terms of its ability to sow absolute panic not just from targets within high profile,heavily trafficked areas but directly within the minds of people spread out over the less densely populated areas within suburbia, 'sniper terrorism' will not be adopted because it just doesn't fit it with the modus operandi or mindset of Al-Queda and their preferred methodology of big, dramatic spectacular event driven bombing type missions like the recent attack in Indonesia.

Suicide attacks and bus-bombings in Israel has also proven to be highly successful in sowing terror but no one here in the US believes it will happen here despite its effectiveness.My point is,just because a particular form of terrorism may be highly effective doesn't necessarily mean it will be employed if it doesn't fit it with the terrorist's particular tactical mindset.

I don't know about being 100% safe. Meryl Boorish
is still out there with her daily blog snipings of the inane and mundane.

Funny, I remember lots of heavy-breathing newsbabes, but the man-on-the-street didn't look all that escared. I saw packed rush hour highways and resturants (although people *did* seem to avoid the booths near the windows).

In fact, it looked to me like the response from the ordinary citizens of the Washington D.C. was a deafening *yawn*.

Phobophobia. Look into it. Where's FDR when we need him? Now, you take John Ashcroft. Please.

"Funny, I remember lots of heavy-breathing newsbabes..." - Cox, you ignorant slut. And they say, "What's in a name?" Hmmph. Focus on the issues, dude. (BTW where's Nora O'Donnell now that we need her? *Duuude*!)

Was that an Augusta - Masters golf clap or a Nu Yawk - US Open golf clap?

I feel safer knowing that ScrappleFace goes beyond the headlines to get the "real" story. Thanks Mr. Face!

The John and John Show closes a successful Beltway dinner theater run.
After a moderately successful one month off Broadway run, the John and John Show has folded. A financial backer at the investment firm of Al Queda told this reporter that the returns didn't justify taking the show to the Great White Way.
"Around DC the critics just take the actors to jail but in the Big Apple... those critics are pros and will "tune up" an actor until he can't stand. We didn't think it was worth the production costs."
The representative from Al Queda reports more shows like this are in preproduction and will be test marketed around the country.
"We are just following the stage tradition of trying out new ideas away from the tough audiences of New York."
