#1 Our navy is the thing that allows our force projection. Hitting our navy is paramount for the enemy. This is an honor kill for them.

#2 So the buyer's named Babar Ahmad, huh? Who'da thunk it, eh?

Anyone taking bets on the religion of our waaay too PC Navy's spy?

Time for the JCS / Pentagon folks, not to mention Justice & State, to let go of their illusions. This is war, gentlepersons - something in which you're supposed to be experts. Act like it. Go ahead, say the word. It won't hurt you - or anyone else, actually. The word is profiling. After we get over than one, there will be several more before it's all over. View this as a journey - of survival.

#3 If this is true, the dummy that passed this information is hung himself out to dry. Information on the track of an individual ship could be obtained in a variety of ways. Accurate information concerning the tracks of a formation of US warships through the straits of Hormuz would have had to have been passed by a person on the carrier of the battle group or the a person on the staff of the flag officer who would have been scheduled to be in command of the formation.

That's a pretty small group. I profile a disgruntled former E-6 (has since left the service.) Probably converted to Islam in the 90's after GWI.

#4 A journey, it has been. How long has it been, three years? But the fucktoids will lose, modern thought will win. Even with the PC baggage. I firmly beleive that.

But the cost is in question. So many are still in denile. Oh well. Just hang tough, keep informed, argue the points, be patient, talk calmly, educate, learn more, recognise talking points, refrain from talking points, be patient, be helpful, have facts, bring our sisters, quivering, into the gates before dark.

#5 Lol, Lucky - I want some of what you're taking!

On the other hand, I disagree with your post. We will have to change things to survive this - much luck and unsung hard work is all that has kept us from taking hits these last 3 years. And the volume of the work would be a lot easier to handle if profiling were accepted. Just my $0.02.

#6 I'm good with profiling, just smile while waving the wand.

I'm not taking anything, sheesh. Worked hard all day, had hotdogs for dinner, the bitch.) How did I get such a bad rep.

Thou shalt not drink wine with footlongs?! The wine keeps the blood stable. But, hey, the reaper comes. Stay Hydrated, drink lots.

#8 More at: Ex-San Diego sailor allegedly linked to terror suspect
The e-mail messages extolled the bombing of the destroyer Cole in October 2000 and the actions of Muslim fighters in Afghanistan, Bosnia and Chechnya, according to the affidavit documents.

A return message from Ahmad's computer account "praised the enlistee's comments and encouraged the enlistee to 'keep up with the dawah (an Arabic term for missionary work) and the psychological warefare (sic),' " the documents stated.

Just Lucky I guess.

#11 I'd wager they already got the former sailor in question in a very dark room at the bottom of Langley.

#12 Jarhead,

Would that be above or below the natural water table?
