Has anyone noticed the Terrorist threat has totally disappeared?

[doc03]

Just heard on the radio there is a strange lack of chatter about planned terrorist attacks. The word Terrorist has disappeared from the cable news stations, except for the opposition in Iraq are called terrorists now. Every holiday or election since 911 we have been under an Orange alert. Can anyone explain this? Hmmm?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

1. more manipulation by Bushco. n/t

[Disturbed]

3. All the terrorists are nownin Iraq...so

there is no longer a need for those alerts.

[Walt Starr]

25. IMO, it was helped along by their subsidiary, Demco.

:grr:

[RBHam]

2. There won't be another terror attack until Cheney decides they need one...

But there have been subtle hints...

Planted stories on dirty bombs in harbors, porous border problems, recent announcements by AL-CIA-duh! that more attacks are on the way...

Look, people. They need something major to justify re-instituting some kind of draft. They're runnning out of troops and recruitment is plummeting...

The silence you talk anout may be the "calm" before the New World order's coming "storm"...

Stay vigilant.

Just know who the REAL enemy is.

[TexasChick]

23. Yep! And how much do you want to bet that Chimp and

Satan "Go Cheney yourself" Cheney have that paid boogyman, Osama bin Forgotten, on speed dial at the WH?

4. Do you mean terrorist TREAT or terrorist THREAT?

Sure the threat has disappeared now that the election is over.

As for a treat, I wasn't aware of any.

[doc03]

6. I missed that one! Maybe they will send us gifts for Christmas.

[proud2BlibKansan]

12. I hope not

that would mean I have more shopping to do.

Anyone know what you get a terrorist for Christmas? Would he be offended if I just gave him a WalMart gift certificate?

[HEyHEY]

5. mmm terrorist treats

[InvisibleBallots]

7. very good point

you're right - all of a suddent no more warnings.

Which leads me to believe that the terrorists warnings were raised not when there was a threat of terrorism, but when the GOP was in trouble.

[nostamj]

8. a kid'll eat the middle of a terrorist first....

but seriously, the election is over.

they don't need the ALERT propaganda anymore. we SURVIVED all the previously ALERTS due to the gallant leadership of God's Own, GWB, the LIBERATOR!

now, I :puke:

[doc03]

10. I guess they have moved on to more important things like

those damn "Liberals" trying to outlaw Christmas and Repugs trying to give their Wall Street buddy's a windfall on SS.

[radwriter0555]

9. no baby; the LIES about a phony, bogus terrorist threat have gone

away.

There isn't, nor has there ever been, a genuine terrorist threat.

[illflem]

11. Maybe it's because there is no

Director of Homeland Security right now.
Now we know who was really causing the all the threats

[Ron Green]

13. Why do you hate America, doc?

[dave123williams]

14. If you want to sell a burglar alarm, thow a brick though a client's window

[CountAllVotes]

15. its not gone, its changed ... ;-)

:kick:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

16. Simple. Shrubco no longer sweating "reelection".

[femme.democratique]

17. This just means now is when they strike...good ol' al'CIAda - - - eom

[Trajan]

18. The threat has always existed ....

Crazy human beings inhabit the earth .... that will never change ...

The problem is: THIS White House choose to pursue other tasks when confronted with evidence of an impending terrorist attack ....

Another problem is this: The people apparently dont mind having their chains yanked continually by those who would use the 'threat' of terrorism to generate fear for political purposes ...

Being concerned about terror is rational .... but being indoctrinated into a culture of fear by political hacks who use terror as a political tool is criminal ...

The REAL terror threat has increased, thanks to Bush's policies ...

[Zinfandel]

19. Elections are over! There will be plenty of terrorist talk...

when they want to reinstate the draft!

[radfringe]

27. or when they gear up to invade Iran or Syria or both

that kind of "chatter" has been seeping in the news for the past couple of weeks

My guess is Iran/Syria invasion in time for 2006 mid-term elections, a co-worker thinks it will be by Feb. 2005 with Israel bombing Iranian nuke facilities to kick it all off

[Caledonia]

20. Yes

They are doing what normal people do... shop, exchange greetings and plan ahead, like who is bringing what to where, like normal people.

[Carl Brennan]

21. It's Kerry's fault

If he had made alot of noise about the election they would have issued a terror alert when important news came out to distract the

public. Since Kerry is playing it quiet there is no need for terrorist alerts, IMHO.

[TexasChick]

24. D*mn, that Liberal, Kerry!! n/t

[spanone]

22. The elections are over. No need to scare the voters.

[shadowknows69]

26. it's the lull before the storm

Shrubco has something big planned for the new year. don't need threats. actions will speak volumes.
