Chris,

Don't shoot the messenger.

There have been several recent news reports that the U.S. authorities had
been warned on more than one occassion, by Israeli and British intelligence
agencys, and possibly others. There are also conflicting reports coming out
of the FBI itself. Some have said that there was nothing to indicate this
was going to happen, yet others claim that the responsible parties have been
under surviellance for weeks.

Then there is this recent news report that caught my attention today:

If true, this would be a bombshell.
