Homeland Security

I got this email



Subject: SCARY


The following is from a person in Fresno , CA . This is happening all over the U.S.

We now live about 30 miles from Fresno ... We are up in the Sierras and Fresno is the first big town we encounter when we leave the mountains. We shop there often. I received this from my ex-homicide partner who is still active in law enforcement circles in the Fresno area.

Excuse the language, but don't excuse the facts. Don't give up your guns, and buy necessary ammunition if you can find it. Be cautious and alert. Be ready if, God forbid, we need to protect our families and loved ones.

If you weren't at Rotary meeting on Friday, you missed the only decent speaker we've had in more than a year. LTC John Cotter is the 144th Fighter Wing's anti terrorism officer. John had a two-part presentation. First part was describing his job as the units anti terrorism officer. Pretty standard stuff.

The second part was information that will curl your hair. A Part-time air guardsman works as a checker at local Von's. Two women in full burkas buy every pre-paid cell phone in the store. Clerk/airman gets to thinking about it. Goes to Cotter and reports incident. Cotter asks store for surveillance video. It's scary enough that he contacts Fresno FBI.

FBI investigates and determines these women have been doing this all over the Valley. Cell phones shipped through Canada to Iraq/Afghanistan where they become triggers for roadside bombs.

The Shell station at Peach and Shaw. Every time a local GI goes there in fatigues they are asked specific questions. What is your unit? When are you deploying? How many aircraft are you taking?

The F-16s out of Fresno fly CAP for west coast. As such they are the first line of defense so they have the US 's most sophisticated air-to-air missiles. Foreign governments would like to get their hands on those missiles or at least learn how to build them. Also how many we have, etc. Two spy groups are working on it, one based at Fashion Fair Mall (the F-16s take-off pattern) and one based at Sierra Vista Mall (the F-16s landing pattern).

Cotter said the ragheads (But we don't profile) are always probing the base. Two dorks in a pickup show up at the front gate wanting to deliver a package marked Air National Guard, Fresno .. No postage, no UPS, no FedEx, no DHL, no nothing. Just a probe.

I asked Cotter why we haven't seen anything about this in The Bee, on KMJ, on local TV news. He said they're not interested. Since Friday I've learned of two other things. My brother-in-law, Frank, (management at Avaya) had a Muslim tech who took a leave-of-absence for 6 weeks in Afghanistan . After the 6 weeks were up he called from New York requesting an extension. Frank (who does profile) said, you're fired, and called the Fresno FBI who were very interested. Don't know the outcome.

A Muslim who owns a liquor store in my former hometown of Kingsburg was constantly bugging customers to buy guns for him. Finally one of the guys I grew up with called the FBI.

We are a country at war and the enemy is among us. I don't care what Janet Napolitano says, it's a fight to the death and we should be prepared as possible. Brother-in-law Frank has a theory and I think it may be closer to the truth than Homeland Security wants to admit. See note below in Brown.
There are a certain number (probably a large number) of Muslims among us who are awaiting the trigger date and will begin randomly killing as many of us as they can, sort of a Fort Hood on steroids. I know I'm getting prepared to shoot back.

Two items of interest: Sheriff Margaret Mims wants to grant concealed carry permits to all who are qualified. Columnist Jim Boren, among the most bleeding of the bleeding heart liberals, says it's time for Fresno residents to arm themselves. LOAD up, you can bet this is happening in places other than Fresno ...

I was asked to send this to everyone in my address book. Some of those I'm sending it to WILL NOT share it! To those I say, Get your head out of the sand and look around with an open mind or before you know it we will no longer be living in the land of the free and the brave!"

We are under attack from a hidden enemy that is everywhere. They are a cancer that WILL attack us and KILL as many as they can to further the Islamic doctrine of Shiria law. They behead, cut off limbs, stone people to death and worse. Beware, there IS a holy war coming. The signs are everywhere if you care to look and listen.

What do we expect from Homeland Security not wanting to admit anything since they are being run by devout Muslims in charge of Homeland Security Posts.

Well, boys and girls, today the fox is guarding the hen house. Tomorrow the wolves will be herding the sheep!

Obama appointed two devout Muslims to homeland security posts.

Obama and Janet Napolitano appointed Arif Alikhan, a devout Muslim, as Assistant Secretary for Policy Development. DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano swore-in Kareem Shora, a devout Muslim, who was born in Damascus, Syria, as ADC National Executive Director as a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC).

NOTE: Has anyone ever heard a new government official being identified as a 'devout Catholic," a "devout Jew" or a "devout Protestant"...?
Just wondering.

Devout Muslims being appointed to critical Homeland Security positions? Doesn't this make you feel safer already?? That should make our home land much safer, huh!?
Wasn't it "devout Muslim men" who flew planes into U.S. buildings 10 1/2 years ago? Wasn't it a "devout Muslim man" who killed 13 at Fort Hood ?

Please share this information to any who give a rat about the future of our Country.

best to be prepared than not
these days it's hard to trust people

There's also some talk from the truckers that have noticed
a big change in military convoys and that something is "happening"
that we should be aware of.... preparation of some kind
and they are spreading the word..
No JOKE

Generally if the post includes a snopes link in the message, it is a distractor. Typical...

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

Without quoting anyone, I will say this...

The enemy of America and their sympathizers are well embedded here on American soil. The Constitution provides for this and is why vigilance is necessary. Not promoting an ultra right agenda, just saying our freedoms and rights give them opportunity to operate. A lot of manpower dedicated to following the money. While many examples given are sensationalized, the scenarios are real. That's the reality.

“Americans have the right and advantage of being armed, unlike the people of other countries, whose leaders are afraid to trust them with arms.” – James Madison.

stupid enough to believe what? that we are safe in our own country?

I don't post much in this forum, but I thought you guys would have an opinion about this email. I know there are plenty of Muslims that don't have anything to do with terrorists.
I know there are many extremists in this country, if it comes to some kind of war here I think it would be best to get away from any battles between the 2 extremist groups and let them battle it out, I'll do what it takes to protect myself and my family. You make your choices.

That email has nothing to do with being prepared or protecting your family...rather it's a lie intended to promote racism and xenophobia.

It's also absurd. With BILLIONS of cell phones circulating the planet the notion terrorists would send burka clad women out to purchase bomb parts in plain sight is ridiculous.

What's really sad about this sort of propaganda is that it works and then crap like this happens...

I agree on being practical. This isn't practical...

Whether the email was true or not, it brings to light the importance of being vigilant in this day and age.

Thank you for posting it Bruce.

While this "email" is supposed to get a knee jerk reaction from people it uses elements of fact mixed with fiction. As a whole it is a sorry piece of misinformation both by the "there's a Kaida terrist round the corner" and the "hug & love everyone maybe they'll leave us alone even thlugh we are the bad guys crowd". Unfortunately, it still looks as though America is not yet ready for an adult conversation on this.

it will be interesting to see how this investigation goes, seems too convenient to me. This area has a high Iraqi population and then this suddenly happens? I think there is another motive.
