Terrorist Movement!

8:42 a.m., Aug. 10, Thursday. I was taking Shumba out for his morning routine when I saw our property manager, "Bo," outside gathering all the trash containers to empty out at the big dumster. I dashed around the apartment, picked up the trash and threw it in the can before he got there to empty it.

Bo tells me that a major terrorist attempt on many major cities in the U.S. was attempted, but foiled. Liquid explosives were put into medicine bottles and other common container and smuggled through airports. President Bush is due to speak to the country at 8:50 a.m.

I went inside and turned on Fox news on cable's channel no. 51. I am going to try to document things here, for the record, as the President speaks. It's five minute till nine right now and he is on air. He is speaking from the airport in Green Bay, WI.

He is speaking in appreciation of officials in the U.K. and the British snd of how they aided in the foiling the attemp. He says that the U.S. and the U.K. were "on top" of this attempt very quickly. He gives credit to counter intelligence of both countries.

His speach was very short and gave his regrets to the incident and says that America will remain protected. It's 9:03 a.m. and he is done. He apparently was due at anothe important meeting.

Following the news they aaying that the terrorist might be El Quida, but cannot be 100% conclusive. 21, "home grown," British terrorist were arrested. They are in British custody. They are saying that the 21 may have been of Pakistani origin.

There are 10 sights that were market for attack, but did not reach the U.S. All incoming flights from Europe and relevant countries are being heavily watched. Many airports are locking down on code orange. All fluids are being baned from being brought onto planes.

The battle in Lebonon has escalated in detail and the news is moving back and forth from the station to the reporters overseas. The reporters are not divulging their immediate location, but views of tanks and the sounds of gun fire can be easily heard. They are saying that the town of Kiyan is currently under attack by the I.D.F. 50 caliber guns on top of tanks can be heard. They are predicting this to be a very long war. It's 9:19 a.m now and I will return later when details are more conclusive.
