On Fox now. "Rita" reporting. Four middle eastern men were trying to buy ambulances and police cruisers in Florida.
She says known to have Al Quida ties. The men have disappeared. _________________ BK |

In the West Bank, ambulances are used frequently by Palestinian terrorists to transport explosives. They are also used to move otherwise healthy terrorists from one point to another, avoiding normal security measures. The Isrealis are wise to this trick now, however. |

The Israelis are wise to it. Are we wise to it? Who would object to a lights on, siren wailing ambulance pulling up in front of an airport. Hospital. School.
I actually heard the Homeland Security Dept talking about the possibility of the Islamofascists using ambulances for their terror attacks about a year ago. Interesting they caught them trying to buy them. More proof of their "incompetence".
Just proves we are still in danger, and need to be vigilant. Another reminder we cannot afford a weak and silly man like Kerry as POTUS. _________________ The last refuge of scoundrels is not patriotism; it is finicky liberal humanitarianism.--Martin Paretz |

Middle-eastern-looking men were the highest bidders on four ambulances.
They did not show up to claim their purchases. FBI was alerted and apparently at least one of them was already being watched. Maybe they became aware of being watched?
The auction owner said that she had no idea where the men were, but I'll bet my last dollar that law enforcement does. _________________ ~ Echo Juliet ~

Please remember me and Nom telling you all about school buses we saw with no names at the beginning of this year. We both reported this to FBI and homeland and congressman. _________________ BK |

Yep, this is exactly the kind of thing that those supposedly "worthless" (according to the Kerryites) alerts are good for - making us look at things differently and being more aware of our surroundings - if it doesn't pass the gut check, report it. _________________ ~ Echo Juliet ~

I recall another incident where Middle Eastern men attempted to purchase an ambulance and law enforcement was alerted. It's possible the men didn't show up to pick up the ambulances they purchased because they are now in government custody. |

They have begun a recruiting effort for volunteers
AND THOSE KINDS OF SUPPLIES
in South American and Central American Countries!!!
Bush has trouble getting people to understand that
TERRORISM is WORLDWIDE.
We really do need to be alert.
Make it a prayerful day.

I am a letter carrier for the USPS and we have been told on more than one occassion that they've also tried to buy Mail trucks directly from the carriers on the route. They supposedly offered them thousands to let them drive off with them. Don't know how true it is, but the memos have come from upper management and read as service talks. |
