"Making things more complicated is the fact that these radicalized men are U.S. citizens or foreign nationals here legally, making it easy for them to travel and avoid suspicion"

I think we have always been 1 step away, we just been lucky though today way too many things are putting massive pressure on our luck, now it's a matter of 'what comes first' ?

Interesting, indeed.

Yeah it's scary crap really. I keep hearing politicians saying that we need to secure the boarder from Mexico to keep out ISIS groups. I do support closing the boarder. . . Bush had the perfect opportunity after 911 but did not. Which is another topic. Yes, they are already here walking among us and the number will be growing. . . it's just a matter of time now. If they got their hands on Nukes, don't you know they will be using them and not even think twice about it. They are after the American people and want to annihilate us.

Ithink some will come across both borders but many will just use a visa and many are raised here . Yes they could use WMD's but its terrorism they will do what they have been doing since 1970's walk into a crowded place and spray bullets and small bombs but now it will be in our shopping malls and sports events rather than unsecure international airports across the globe .

I think Psalm 7 is right on this one. These folks are a long way from getting weapons that can do mass damage, but they aren't far from shooting and blowing people up in crowded places. We will need to be very vigilant and willing to kill and die to keep this threat at bay. I think keeping our nose and presence out of the middle east won't hurt, either.

No doubt they are everywhere. I even heard two young 20 somethings(Middle Eastern descent) talking in Burger King the other night. I had gone while on break from VBS and they were literally telling customers that they group on TV wasn't a threat to the US, but a group created by the CIA to terrorize our own people and stir up more drama in the middle east. I swear I almost called the FBI about that. It reminded me of two brothers I heard back in early 2002 looking up at a plane in the sky and saying "Boom". They were Pakistani and we were just south of DC at the time. I did call the FBI at that time. Maybe even I'm getting too lax and have forgotten the shock of 9/11.

There is that article and then this one yesterday about stolen Libyan Jetliners.
