FBI Warns of Violence in America
Have you seen all those horrific pictures of burning cars, screaming crowds, and US businesses under attack in the Middle East? Well, the FBI is afraid those scenes could be repeated here at home:
A U.S. intelligence bulletin warned today that the violent outrage aimed at U.S. embassies spawned by a movie mocking the Prophet Mohammed could be spread to America by extremist groups eager to "exploit anger."
The Joint Intelligence Bulletin issued by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security said "the risk of violence could increase both at home and abroad as the film continues to gain attention."
"First responders should remain aware of the potential for spontaneous large crowds and protests that could overwhelm resources and should be vigilant for possible efforts to encourage peaceful protesters to commit acts of violence," the warning said.
How is this possible? We Americans should be snug 'n safe. After all, in Iraq, which Condi Rice declared to be the "region from which the 9/11 threat emerged," 5,000 US troops are garrisoned at the US embassy in Baghdad, the "largest and most expensive of any embassy in the world."
Add that to the 900 bases in over 100 nations around the world, and you have to conclude that NOTHING could happen to us.
With an annual military budget of $606 billion, we shouldn't have to worry about any threat.
An yet, we ALWAYS have something else to fear. Why is that?
