We live in Rappahannock County, VA. And today Scott got this link.
If you remember back around Christmas time they said that our area was intercepted as being a terrorist target, well we all speculated about something like this. Now we know it to be true! We are at odds now. I say we move. Scott says we stay!

Check out the article. It's scary to say the least.

It is quite alarming, but I'm more than confident that, if indeed your county is a proposed site for the government to run in case of a disaster, that place will be triple-checked for all terrorist activity, and any plans will be foiled.
Of course, that's the
side of me talking.

That's what I say. I am more than positive that we are safe. I see C-130's flying low from time to time and there is always air traffic over head. I guarantee at any given time there is 15 devices checking for the presence of radioactive materials. We have lots of stuff up there. Customs training and fences with us government no trespassing signs . I am sure we are safe.

In Rappahannock County? The biggies are Washington, Flint Hill, Huntly, Ammissville, Sperryville and Luray. I don't know exactly where the alledged command center is, although I have a few guesses, one of which is right across the street from my house.

Actually, I think you're safest if you ARE close to the place. Talk about tight security!!!!
BTW, Niki:
"You need to relax, and you need to relax NOW!!!" (Doin' my best Jack Bauer imitation.

Most of us are in the Washington area, leaving us all in a bad spot. There's nothing we can do but keep our eyes open and be aware of the person next to us !!

Hey we don't live in West Virginia! It should be Western VA. Don't start the jokes. LOL
I have a sense of humor Jake, just not when it comes to having freaking White House 2 under my house. LOL

Don't get too upset. NewsMax is not a very reliable source.

It's not newsmax that is the source. It is a newsmax story on a new book that was released. Around Christmas Rappahannock was all over the news as being picked up in chatter amongst terrorists. The only "news" in this is that the underground command center is here. Whether it is true or not remains to be seen.

I heard a guy on FoxNews talking about it not being a matter of if but when one of these "dirty" suitcase bombs was used in the US. I believe they're here and dread the day some loser decides it's time to use one.
