BBC just busted the terror threat.
Al qaeda spied out the threatened buildings BEFORE 9/11???????????????

What outrageous garbage.

Anyone wanna guess how much shipping costs will go up because trucks are waiting hours on line at checkpoints, at current fuel prices?

10. Possibly this video report (under 3 minutes)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/video/39912000/rm/_39912774_alert22_hewitt02_vi.ram

Right at the end, he says "Al Qaeda has been gathering this information both from before September 11th and more recently".

8. I'm sorry for being confused (a typical event)
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING?
That this whole Orange Alert crap is due to stuff that was gathered BEFORE 9/11 and they simply got the material off the computer and are using that to justify this fear mongering?
Is that what you are saying?

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON IN THIS COUNTRY???????

relax, lil. take a deep breath.
NO FUCKING WAY WILL I RELAX.
Seriously lil, take a deep breath. there is an election soon and things will improve.

YEAH? IT FUCKIN BETTER!

Ok Lil. breath again. there you go. relax. Think of Margeret Thatcher naked.

oh shit. I'm fine now.
