Hmm, 2004 – 3 = 2001

Via Bubba, we learn that the reports that led to terror alert is three years old, according to some say officials. A little bit late there, fellas.

Don’t get me wrong, I think it is a good idea to be alert but given the timing, it’s a bit questionable. However, the fact the information isn’t new doesn’t mean that there is no threat.

Update: To make XRLQ happy, Tom Ridge says surveillance done by terrorists occurred as recently as January. That makes it new info in my book.

    Only the story doesn’t say that. What it does say is that much of the information that led the authorities to raise the terror alert was 3 or 4 years old, while other information is new, much of it coming from the guy they nabbed in Pakistan last month. There is no “the report.”

    Oops, left the S off the end of report.

    While I admit to being smarmy, the story also says that:

    They reported that they had not yet found concrete evidence that a terrorist plot or preparatory surveillance operations were still under way.

    To me that implies the info is sketchy and obviously not specific. Now, whether that could be indicative of 9/11, well, as i said, i was being a smart ass.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
