WASHINGTON Oct. 3 — Pentagon officials said Thursday they worry that terrorists are trying to infiltrate the U.S. military and may have done so at the prison camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Three workers at the prison, including two members of the military, have been arrested on suspicion of espionage at the high-security base. It is unclear whether the men were connected to or part of any terrorist plot, the commander in charge of homeland security said.

"I'm hoping we're going to find these are unusual, these are few and far between, that this isn't some large cell," said Gen. Ralph Eberhart, head of U.S. Northern Command.

You have no idea how deep the terrorist's go. If Poland is the next country to loose their electric grid then all bets are off. This may happen in the next 2 weeks so stay alert. Have you ever heard of Steganography? The terrorists are using this now.

Steganography? No, I've never heard of it. Would you explain what it is please?

Steganography: The art of writing in cipher, or in characters which are not intelligible except to persons who have the key;
...........................cryptography.

isn't that stenography? What does that have to do with terrorists and power grids?

Stenography is the art or process of writing in shorthand. It is the art or practice of transcribing speech with a stenograph machine.

Basically you can insert a message inside a picture or attatch it to a picture. They can also be attatched to audio files. There are several free programs to do this. The picture will look normal to you until you drag & drop it into the program. Most of the time the file needs a password to unlock the message. That is the hard part about intercepting these photos right now. I know of several that have messages hidden in them but the passwords have not been cracked yet. Quite an ingenious way to deliver a message.

Explain more into your thoughts. Why would Poland make it more urgent? I am just curious as to your reasoning. I have been worried about it being terrorism for awhile -- there just hasn't been any proof.

If you go here this site will provide the information as it is too much to type here. Basically if you look at the troop breakdown in Iraq in the graphic on that site it lists Poland as 4th. US lost power on 8-14-03, London on 8-28-03, and Italy on 9-28-03. So if it is terrorist related it looks like they are going down the list. On the other hand it could all be a coincidence or are the terrorist training "Grid Droppers"? Now if you want to read about all the information being processed on the terrorists check out that sites homepage. Are there any known terror cells near you? Check the map to see.
