Yes I agree. I think it's scary if they manage to infultrate our military and get sympathezers that look like us. I always thought they would all be mid-eastern looking, so if they can pull that off it will be hard to stop them. I just hope it's a bunch of idiots who aren't terrorist related. Either way they are still idiots lol :lol: :lol: :wink:

Uh, guys and gals....does anyone recall a post I left at (name deleted to protect the innocent)? The mosques that are cropping up all over the fruited plain are Saudi-built, with the proviso that they have (yep!) WAHHABI imams (teachers); plus the jails are full of ad-hoc "madrasas" (Islamic religious schools). Note also the increasing membership of minorities in Islamic mosques here...they play on the "disenfranchised" feelings to recruit and indoctrinate these unwitting people to serve them.

Said it once...saying it again.

hmmm

Here is the very latest from CNN...

TUNKHANNOCK, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- Two U.S. Marines from Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, are in custody after conspiring to use an explosive device at their base, police said.

Lance Cpls. Richard Morrison, 21, and Richard Thomas Medders, 22, were arrested Saturday along with Janna Rebecca Lynn Smith, 27, and charged with criminal conspiracy to cause or risk a catastrophe, and making terrorist threats and bomb threats, Pennsylvania State Police said.

The three downloaded information from the Internet on making explosive devices and said they were going to use them at Camp Lejeune, police said.

All three are being held in the Wyoming County Correctional Facility.

Morrison and Medders served in the 2nd Force Service Support Group, which provides combat support, said Staff Sgt. Jay Connolly, a spokesman for Camp Lejeune.

Tunkhannock is about 25 miles northwest of Scranton in northern Pennsylvania.

Thanks for the articles everyone! Its kinda sad they are not on the front page of every news paper. Surely if these guys were in turbans they would have been. They are just as much of a terrorist as any other terrorist. They should really be punished for even trying to do this!
