The case of the three Texas men arrested on terrorism charges with hundreds of cell phones is going to be one to watch. Prosecutors are not shying away from their claim these men were part of an effort to take down a major bridge: Tuscola County prosecutors have filed terrorism-related charges against three Texas men […]

Lee Hamilton was on MTP and made the idiotic claim that resources being used in Iraq were diverting resources from protecting us here – and it was another in a long line of dumb soundbites. The discussion was on the lack of elements in the airport protection. But what in the world are we going […]

Some articles today (H/T RCP) are showing how the Lamont debacle is going to impact the Democrats given the news of the massive airline terror plot that was stopped in the UK and the fact more terrorists are still out there.

The open area of security I think we need to watch is all those people who work at the airports.

He is a rescue worker, he is a mortician, he is an ambulance driver and he is a statistician (giving out death tolls to gullible reporters). And it seems Green Helmet man is a director, actor and prop man. What lame excuse will the news media come up with now? (H/T American Thinker). The full […]

I know many UK and US administration officials have been noting that this group of people had been under surveillance for some time, but it is also clear the actual plans this group had only recently came to light. What is also clear is we could have missed this attack if they terrorists paid more […]
