Re: [CNN] FBI: Threat against Western bridges 'not credible'
"A. Melon"
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The information that prompted a warning that terrorists might target a major Western bridge has been determined to be "not credible," two federal law enforcement officials tell CNN, and the FBI Tuesday is preparing to say no threat exists.
"There just wasn't anything to it," said one official.
A second official agreed, and says local law enforcement agencies are about to be notified of that conclusion.

Snort. What are the chances that the National Guard remains on patrol at the bridges "in the interest of safety"?
Like it mattered at all that they were there? Except for the superficial effect of comforting the poor scared sheep I didn't see anything effective, I didn't see anyone searching trucks or opening car trunks. Form over function. Same as airport security. Psyops. Like the warnings to keep people off balance. Should we start a pool to see who can guess when ashcruft will put everyone 'on highest alert' next? It'll probably line up with an ACLU attack on the USAmaPATriarchalRIOT act. Only a commie traitor could object to le power grabs at a time when alerts are clearly critical to the survival of the entire nation and its way of life!

You forgot to mention that it was also "for the sake of the children" :-) -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------
