U.S. TERROR THREAT: STOP WORRYING ABOUT EUROPE: ACT

You may have heard about the imminent threat of terror lately. If not, let's recap. Military intelligence has warned of a terror attack to dwarf 9/11 and right around the corner. So what's going on and where should the U.S. go from here?

Air Force Gen. Victor "Gene" Renuart has warned that there are terror cells right there in the country gathering momentum for a massive attack. When asked if it was likely to occur in the summer, he said that it could happen any day.
Michael Scheuer, a retired CIA veteran assigned to Bin Laden says that Washington has talked about security but it's just not there. You're going to love his point of view:

Despite the clear and present danger, Scheuer cites the federal government's failure to secure the borders, especially the U.S.-Mexico border.

"We haven't done the basic things that were needed on 9/11 to protect Americans to the greatest extent possible – and that is domestic border control," he says.

As a result, almost six years since the Sept. 11 attacks, America's law enforcement still does not know "who is in the country without a pool of illegals that increases by the hour."

Today, terrorists could strike with ease if they so choose. Scheuer points to the port of Houston, which could be easily targeted because of its refining operations.

On the global front of the war on terror, Scheuer offers a similar pessimistic view because the U.S. has never exercised the full clout of the "military option" to put down the insurgency in Iraq and deal with terrorists elsewhere.

Simply put, Scheuer says the U.S. is too worried about what Europe thinks of our policies and has not risen to the challenge we face from Muslim extremists.

Relipaundit: Even Scheur - a failure at the Binladen Desk, and a BDS afflicted "Israel Lobby"-fearing anti-Semite gets it!
