Well I have been hearing from some source to look for the shoe to drop as you call it in the next 48 to 96 hours this was on thursady I was told this.
The person who told is retired but was in the speacial forces for over 20 years his last was the gulf war.
He tell me he really has no more contacts then anyone but from all the factors he can see it looks like all the chips are in place they even have ground forces in afgan on the northern part at this time..
the afgans are getting nervous at this time as well, The source told me to watch close something will start after the Group from the US that made there trip is felt to be safe and either back on US soil or close to it..
This is also why the government has been warning now for the last 24 hour or so that another Terrorist attack is near 100% sure weather the US strikes or not they are perpareing Us for what intellgents is telling them will happen these attacks could be directly in the US or on US holdings outside the country or both also they are warning there is no way more casuaties can be avoided war or no war.
This is also what the reports today of afgan shooting at suposed planes is about it is felt that there amount of responce is being tested and from where trying to see if there is hidden areas they have not found yet.

I had heard about the supposed shooting at a plane over Afganistan, but hadn't heard about the likleyhood of more attacks, even before we respond to the first.
I just browsed thorugh cnn and msnbc and saw the articles myself.. going from feeling relative safe in my day to day life, to feeling almost constant worry. As most of you know, it isn't easy.
I am trying my best to live "normally", otherwise I feel the terroist will have won. When I am at work during the week, I can handle the pressures since I am concentrating on other things... it is the weekends that are getting to me.

WASHINGTON –– Administration and European officials are signaling that a major military action may not come anytime soon, even as U.S. troops, warplanes and ships gather in the Gulf region.
The biger news source are feed just as much if not more misinformation then the talabon is at this time.
Just Know that the game if you want to call it that has begon and that afgan is only one of many targets.
While you are foucus on one point on the map the action will be happening in evry other places.
The thing to keep in mind is everyone wants bin laden but Just getting him out is not the anwser they are out to disable all or the better part of his network getting him will be the end result and getting the talaban out of power will be a side effect.
Keep in mind There is not only 30 thousand troups out in the middle east but there are 50 thousand On call and duty right here in the US as well, like I said a war fought on many fronts.
