white house evacuated for few hours

#1 Postby Guest » Thu Nov 20, 2003 9:54 am

We got this info:
White House evacuated today for few hours due to airspace violation (seems by mistake).

Have you heard it?

Unfortunately I don't have CNN...used to have FOX News...but our local cable company changed things around...so didn't know anything about the White House situation until now.

I didn't hear of that either. I think last week there was another plane that had enterred the airspace around DC as well by mistake.

A plane did enter restricted airspace and moved away to the south. They are investigating it.

Tom, to my knowledge my folks and I don't get MSNBC, either.
Local cable company wants it's customers to buy the WHOLE package it seems or nothing...we don't have that kind of $$$ so have to make do with less in news channel options as it is.

Rumored to be part of a thwarted attack and arrests are underway. Part two of the attack had to do with a nuke plant in the N.E.

How come it is not "breaking news" on all the news channels.

Well here is what I know.

ISSUE DATE *
11-20 to 12-25
LOCATION
Washington D.C.
ATTACK TYPE
cargo planes loaded with explosives
TARGET
The White House and nuclear power plant in the northeast
INTEL SOURCE
eyewitness involved in the plan; Federal authorities actively thwarting this plot
ATTACK PROBABILITY*
authorities making arrest, this will not be made public


COMMENT: Concurrent with our warning over the last 30 days, the White House evac was specifically linked to information of cargo aircraft being flown into this building. The whole 'blip on the radar' being birds was meant for "bird-brained" people. Concurrent with the White House attack, Fed. agents are foiling the plan of an airplane being flown into a nuclear power plant. Plant is specific, but we can not post location at this point. NOTE: For those who expect this type info to appear on major networks, go back to sleep.

Where do you get this information?

On the one hand I can see that they don't want to cause a panic, but on the other hand, I think that the public does need to know these things, especially to help avoid complacency.

Steph,

The best way to get Joe Q. Public to engage in mass panic would be to "leak" this kind of information...

Some things, in a wartime setting, are best left to the "pros". We will hear about it soon enough...maybe years from now, but that's soon enough for me.
