Terrorists FLorida?

Yesterday and lady and her son were at a Shoney's in Cartersville about 10am. They were sitting in the next booth to three gentlemen that were talking about 9-11 and laughing. She said that she would normally never listen to others conversation but was miffed that they would be laughing at something that apparently is not funny. They continued to hear the men discussing "if we (americans) mourned 9-11 how would we react to 9-13". Then one of the men said he wasn't sure they had enough to "bring it down" and another said that he had connections and he could get enough. When they (the men) were ready to leave one asked how they were going to pay and the other said he would put it on his card. They then went to the counter and the woman and her son followed to see if they did pay with a card and what they were driving. She said she called the Ga State Patrol and they patched her through to the GBI. She relayed all the info she had about the men and the two cars they were driving.

This morning they pulled the two cars over on 75 south in FL. Bomb sniffing dogs indicated that there was evidence of bomb materials. I haven't heard anything since then so I didn't hear about them blowing up a bag with medical supplies and I haven't heard about the couple in Illinois.

I did hear a couple of people call in and say they had also called the police about a Nissan truck heading south with 2 men of eastern desent with a huge green barrel in the back. One caller said it was a Nissan car and the other said it was a truck but I haven't heard any clarification on that.

I'm sure that a lot of people on this post have already heard this info and I'm sorry that you had to read it again. I thought if someone read this post and hadn't heard the info it might help. Has anyone else hear anything else?
 
Yup, it could be a decoy. The day isn't even half over yet. I'm really surprised to hear the GA woman talking on TV. I would think the authorities would have told her she can't open her mouth until their investigation is finished.
 

I have a bad feeling that this could be a divirsionary tactic. Appartently that car blew through the toll booth without paying. Would that just bring more attention to them... something isn't right. What would they blow up in Miami? They are on the only east-west road in south Florida. All the police and bomb squads are now tired up on a very long road without north to south access.Hummm...please God Bless the U.S
 
I guess it is possible that this is just a decoy but then again we are probably just dealing with a few morons that are not the brightest in the world. Thankfully if they were planning something they were stupid to talk about it and thankfully that waitress reported them.

My DH and I were talking a little while ago and wondered the same thing as Tense. What could they be going after in Flordia? I'm not saying that they don't have big buildings or important buildings, but it really doesn't make sense.

And the lady in Georgia. I heard her on a radio station and she gave her name and the fact that she was a nurse. Somehow I just don't see that as smart. Kind of makes her a target. Anyone agree?

What about the couple in Illinois, anything on that.
 
The news is reporting that the lady that overheard them yesterday was a waitress but she said on the radio that that info was incorrect, that she is a nurse.

An international airport, a nuke plant in the general area. I'm not sure what else might be there. I'm sure the police, etc. are just a "team." Others are available should anything happen.
 
Isn't Miami a major port for cruise ships?
 
Could the explosion in TX be related? They haven't found explosives in either car as of yet. Ditch or dropped off somewhere on the way...or out of the way?
 
ports, nuclear plants, airport. I guess after they destroyed the twin towers everything looks small in comparison. I'm not saying they are, but it just kind of feels that way. It's not that I think that there's nothing in Florida that terriosts would be after but I guess I'm just looking for something big. I don't see them coming after anything in Atlanta or Georgia but I would be just as devastated if they did. My DH mentioned WDW. Who knows. It's horrible just thinking about WHAT they could be after in only GOD knows where.

The terrorists in Israel never go after anything big, yet its just the same... the loss of loved ones lives.
 
They're saying they were on their way to a medical convention in Miami? :rolleyes: You can bet officials are checking to see if there are any medical conventions in Miami today and if they're on the registration list. You don't just go to a convention without reservations. "They're not cooperating." They're saying they are here legally, which I guess their paperwork confirms. But after this I would think they earned DEPORTATION never to return to this country or maybe can feed bread to the aligators on "Aligator Alley." :rolleyes:
 
Sorry... I didn't mean what could they blow up... I know there is a lot.. I guess I meant , after 9-11 I just looked for the obvious.. and with terrorists, there is no such things. Yes.. ports, Turkey Point, and or anything that would reck havoc in someones life. Hopefully is was stopped in time.
 
Just heard these guys blew thru a toll booth and are not cooperating with law enforcement agencies:confused:
 
you are absolutely right Miss Jasmine. 1 loved one lost is to many.

Does it seem kind of insane to be showing this woman on TV, showing her house, giving her full name? I mean, it these guys are ligit, the sleeper cells that ARE here are going to hear this and possibly go after her. Does anybody else think so?
 
I had the exact same thoughts. I think it would have been okay for her to talk to Fox News on the phone, but I wouldn't have given my name, where I live, etc.

Now that she's appearing on camera, I think she should be a bit more careful. I believe the terrorists are capable of anything and I sure wouldn't want them to know I had alerted authorities to their compatriots whereabouts.

Lisa :cool:

That was my first thought...they are giving everything away about this woman! I wouldn't want ANYTHING about me shown. Do you think perhaps she is doing this for attention?
