    Then again, casting doubts about a source by making him out as a liar or a crackpot is a common government tactic to discredit said source.
    OK where were those imminent attacks in 2005 ? why was he not on Fox predicting the London bombings like he claims? why at the time of the film did mossad operatives call B/S on Spielburgs film ? why did those actually involved in the assasinations go public on the events ? Why was his "evidence" given to Bush not mentioned in any of the 9/11 reports on pre attack intelligence ?Why was his work on Lockerbie just a re-hash of others work that had already been put in the public domain ?
    Thats a lot of questions isn't it
    Can you supply any answers that might give some credit to him ?

    In answer to that last question no. I certainly can't supply any such answers. One, I haven't the recourses for such an investigation, nor do I have the time. Anything that I might provide by way of an answer is mere supposition. I wouldn't even try to attempt it. I do think that the article is just a good vehicle for us to discuss what folks think that the terrorists might do? There are way too many conspiracy theories out there already for me to be taken in by one more, but suppose he might be right about some of his intelligence?

    I do feel that he is correct that the terrorists won't attempt another airplane attack again. They have blown their wad here and even though our airport security is still lacking, I doubt they could easily accomplish it again. He is right that passengers are much more aware, and likely to resist. I think that they are much more likely to go for something spectacular like an amusement park, a highly visible public event, or a national shrine. Simultaneous attacks are very much a possibility. What would make it easy is the very lax attitude of our society towards security. Americans hate to be inconvenienced...merely waiting in line at the drive-thorough is a major trial of patience for most.

    Another reason why it would be easy to accomplish is our still very much open borders with pitiful security and huge gaps making it child's play to get into our country. Once in it is just a matter of coordination of assets via cell phone to organize the operations. If Timothy McVeigh and friends could plant a bomb and destroy the federal building in Oklahoma City, and he was no mastermind, certainly Al Queda could do much worse in several places at once.

    No Tribe, I make no claims that this guy is James Bond, but he does have some points. Oh yeah, and imagine Hollywood getting it wrong about the story and Mossad denying their voracity? Has tinsel town ever been anything else but a place were dreams are made lately?
    Of course, the government would never take steps to make sure that any warnings he might have given are deniable.....and pigs do fly-right next to the fairies with boots.

    I don't expect anymore attacks on western soil, if I were them I would sit down and watch scared people do the work for them. And, I see that. Really I am just as bad.

    Went down that road a good while back , before the London bombings . Rail stations and especially undergrounds were the #1 choice (including the channel tunnel) , airport terminals were a big second followed by oil refineries and theme parks .
    My choices I think were the Staten Island ferries , cross channel ferries and the Rotterdam floodgates at spring tide .
    If Aviv had been paying attention during his time at El-Al he would know that one weakness they are regularly testing for is putting fake bombs in cargo shipments that are put on passenger flights...and the results of those tests are not very encouraging .

    Oh yeah, and imagine Hollywood getting it wrong about the story and Mossad denying their voracity?
    Actually it was Mosad agents slagging the film and slagging the results of the operation which ended with a huge #3up in Scandanavia .

    So in short Rotor this intelligence expert came up with , a pile of crap , some clear untuths , some stuff that had already been published by others and some guesswork that the average poster on a games forum can come up with...
    Its so tempting to make a comment on a Fox "experts" abilities isn't it
