I saw this story on 10-7 and didnt think much of it but i'm posting it here in light of the "MI-6 Agents Caught Trying To Blow Up Chicago Subway" thread, not because i'm so sure that thread is on to something but as a precaution if it is.Its from foxnews for what thats worth.<br>The important thing about the item is that a ex-mossad agent says there is "chatter" implicating a imminent attack on the USA with multiple targets in rural america focusing on "mass transportation".<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,128626,00.html">www.foxnews.com/story/0,2...26,00.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>"Counterterrorism expert Juval Aviv spoke with FOX Fan Central about what Americans can do to protect themselves in case of a terror attack.<br><br>Do you believe another terrorist attack is likely on American soil?<br><br>I predict, based primarily on information that is floating in Europe and the Middle East, that an event is imminent and around the corner here in the United States. It could happen as soon as tomorrow, or it could happen in the next few months. Ninety days at the most.<br>~snip~<br>What they’re going to do is hit six, seven or eight cities simultaneously to show sophistication and really hit the public. This time, which is the message of the day, it will not only be big cities. They’re going to try to hit rural America. They want to send a message to rural America: "You’re not protected. If you figured out that if you just move out of New York and move to Montana or to Pittsburgh, you’re not immune. We’re going get you wherever we can and it’s easier there than in New York.<br>~snip~<br>Juval Aviv is a former Israeli Counterterrorism Intelligence Officer and President and CEO of Interfor, Inc.
