FBI: 100 Percent Chance of WMD Attack

Of course he's going to say that - he wants to scare you and make sure you continue to support funding for his group!

It's a 100% chance that you'll die someday too - quick, hide!

"As it is, Majidi says, American intelligence picks up hundreds of reports each year of foreign terrorists obtaining WMD. In every other case so far, the reports of foreign terrorists obtaining WMD have turned out to be unfounded." - Well, that sounds like a huge threat...

"However, Majidi’s directorate within the FBI investigates more than a dozen cases in the U.S. each year where there was intent to use WMD." Intent and capability? All of a sudden, they're so good at catching them before they can complete their nefarious plans? rofllol

This is ridiculous storytelling - no facts, no arrests, no concrete evidence, just scare tactics. Is the FBI trying to justify its budget for the Weapons of Mass Destruction Directorate all of a sudden?

Outdoor - I blame them all, D and R alike, for the last 40 years who have allowed the culture of fear to take over and justify the increasing money and power to bleed into the DoD. A perpetual war state is not a healthy way for any country to function. If our foreign policy for the last several decades had been conducted with integrity, insight, and wisdom, instead of short-term, short-sighted, self-interest, we wouldn't have so many enemies. And our economy would be in a whole lot better shape.

Nmysys, I wish I had a false sense of security - I could go stick my head in the sand, get tanned, and shut up about global warming. There are nights after I've spent a day educating myself more about the science that I lie awake worrying about the world my children will have to struggle in. I know full well what Republicans and Democrats alike are doing, watching their inaction, pandering to corporate interests who've bought them off, and ignoring sound science and policy, to the detriment of our health, our land, our air, and our water (and it's why I changed my party affiliation from R to D 15 years ago and D to Independent a year and a half ago - the lack of true leadership and adherence to their constituents is stunning to me). They have absolutely no desire to protect us, only suck up more power and money. Perhaps they do see the writing on the wall, realize it's a damn near hopeless situation, and they are just going to make sure their own are preserved and sheltered. But it's surely not us liberals who believe in our government, we just see the injustices differently than you do. I, in particular, look more long-term and seethe at the lies and deliberate distractions from the real problems. And an attack from a terrorist is, frankly, small beans compared to what we will be facing, and I prefer to prioritize what I deal with from most important to least. Terrorists fall somewhere in the middle.

But neither of you addressed my issue that this article has absolutely no documented facts to back up the claims that this one department is supposedly doing so much to protect us. Do you think it's a well-written article, balanced and accurate? Portraying every side, as you are often bragging that Fox News does? Or did Outdoor just post it to reiterate, yet again, his belief that we are in so much danger from those scary terrorists and Thank God for our government looking out for us!
