Within the last couple of days I actually stated to several people that it has been almost five years that America has been on the Yellow or elevated terror threat level and that it almost means nothing to anyone anymore. Then this morning on the ride to work what do I hear? We are now on Orange (and Red for incoming UK flights) threat level because of the foiled terror plot in the UK to blow up multiple airliners with liquid explosives.
Just a few observations;
Let me just point out something about the threat level system. The Washington Times reported in 2002:
The latest alerts were issued "as a result of all the controversy that took place last week," said Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer, referring to reports that the president received a CIA briefing in August about terror threats, including plans by Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network to hijack U.S. commercial airliners. (Emphasis mine)
I dont know exactly why Ari Fleisher would say that publicly but remember he resigned as press secretary in 2003. So the Presidents press secretary admitted that they basically used fear to distract the publics attention away from the fact that Bush was definitely specifically warned of a threat a month prior to 9/11.
The reason I bring that up is because not only has the public become accustomed to living under fear dictated by the threat level, as Ari Fleisher admitted in 2002, the government has used that very system to distract the publics attention from issues they dont want publicized (there are other public instances). In case you didnt catch that, it was an admission. Also see this 2003 WorldNetDaily story about this very subject.
Keep in mind another little aspect left out by most reports today, this current terror plot was known to our President at least as early as Sunday, according to Forbes magazine today. Read it for yourself then ask yourself, why was the terror alert not raised at that time? Once again it appears the threat system has more to do with the government protecting itself than the American Public!
One aviation security expert said today that the plot resembled a 1995 plan code-named Bojinka.
Let me tell you a little bit about Operation Bojinka. (The DIA refuses to declassify further information on Project Bojinka by the way). It was a 1995 plot led by Ramzi Youssef which involved blowing up 10 Western airliners simultaneously, among other things. In September, 1992 Youssef came to the US with Ahmad Ajaj whose luggage contained documents on bomb making and fake IDs and passports. Ajaj was arrested while Youssef was released, for some reason (apparently he was protected by powers within the government). Youssef ended up being the WTC 93 bombing mastermind.
What is not reported much anymore is that the FBI was handling an informant involved in the 93 bombing named Emad A. Salem whos secretly recorded conversations with the FBI revealed that the FBI knew a lot before the 93 attack. The problem with this sting is that an FBI supervisor apparently had opportunity to prevent the actual bomb from being built (or at least substituting fake ingredients) or the plan from happening in the first place. Why didnt he? See how it looks to you.
So this currently foiled plot is a recycle of the 1995 plot. I thought these guys were brilliant mastermind killers. Thats a subject for another rant.
This current threat appears to be following a pre 9/11 mold so be aware. If there are a couple of these foiled plots in the near future be prepared for a real attack to slip through the cracks at which time we will truly be locked down indefinitely for national security. I hope this does not happen but I see a pattern based on passed incidents and think we need to watch and pray. I will not be surprised if there is a link discovered to Iran and/or Syria and maybe North Korea with this plot. You know what will happen then. Fear is proving to be quite a means indeed.
Jesus answered them, "See to it that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name and say, 'I am the Christ,' and they will deceive many people. You are going to hear of wars and rumors of wars. See to it that you are not alarmed. These things must take place, but the end hasn't come yet. (Matthew 24:4-6)
