There is an easy equation for predicting terror alerts. When the National Fear Inducement System first started, I noticed the pattern. If terrorism or the Middle East begins to leave the news headlines, a new terror alert will be issued.
Vindication is now mine, as I have been proven right. Yesterday's alerts were based on pre-9/11 data. Ridge defends the governments actions by deaming them essential.
Acting on threats of not-so-impending doom is essential? Terrifying everyone more than the Terrorists themselves can do is essential? Activating law enforcement in New York, this week of all random weeks in the past 3 years, based on 3-year-old data, is essential?
Maybe if you want to keep the country held tightly in your grasp, it is. Maybe if you want your precious Patriot Act to stand. Maybe if you want to have justification to declare Martial Law.
