11/1    Gov. Davis warns major Calif. bridges may be targeted next.
        http://www.bayarea.com/c/breaking/docs/bridge110101.htm
        \_ Davis wants the terrorists to bomb the bridges so that
           he can get free air time like Guillian (sp?) did.
                                         \_Gilligan?
           \_ "Giuliani".  I recited the spelling several times before I could
              remember it.
           \_ Yes, and it was the Jews who bombed the WTC.
              \_ You know, a WHOLE LOT of people actually believe that.
                 \_ Conspiracy theory?
        \_ could the terrorist change target easily ... like head the
           plane to the Berkeley campus?
           \_  why would they? berkeley is on the terrorists side.
           \_ obviously, there can be no nuclear terrorism in berkeley,
              because of the "nuclear free zone" signs.  we just need
              to put up "terrorist free zone" signs as well.  i'm sure
              the city council is voting on it right now.
           \_ Not planes, large hazardous materials trucks!
              \_ Beware of abandoned rental trucks!
           \_ Berkeley profs/students are not worth killing. They're just
              a bunch of Linux/bike-riding/ultra-lefty phreaks. All talk
              & protest-- no action.
              \_ Furthermore, Berkeley is anti-military-retaliation regarding
                 9/11, so the Taliban probably even want to keep them alive.
                 \_ Whereas God-fearing American think all Berkeleyannis should
                    be dragged into some street and cluster-bomb-fucked.
             \_ that's my point.  Why only the bridges?  If they want
                to just attack, there are so many alternatives if the
                terrorists simply wants to strike terror. I fail to
                see what Davis is trying to do.  Shouldn't he just
                catch those terrorists to prevent the attack?  Assuming
                that he can't, he is telling the terrorists to change
                targert/date.
                On one hand, we have Ashcroft (sp?) saying terrorists
                activities are coming but he can't let us know details,
                and on the other hand the Governor of California says he
                knows where the terrorists are coming and are warning us (and
                warning the terrorists to strike a different target).  Does
                anyone else feel there is an irony here?  Unless our
                government feel that the terrorist are dumber than they are.
                \_ If catching the terrorists was that easy, he'd have done it
                   by now and wouldn't bother with announcing a threat.
        \_ Davis just wants some of the attention.
