Default Chertoff: European terrorists trying to enter US

Quote:
WASHINGTON (AP) — European terrorists are trying to enter the United States with European Union passports, and there is no guarantee officials will catch them every time, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said Thursday.

Chertoff's comments on Capitol Hill comes as the country is entering a potentially vulnerable period with the presidential nominating conventions coming up next month; the presidential election in November; and the transition to a new administration in January — all of which may be attractive targets for terrorists. The Associated Press: Chertoff: European terrorists trying to enter US
Not a World War, per se but, the world is at war. Make no mistake.

You are among a throng of Democrats, Republicans and Independents who wonder the same thing.
Some of this stuff really makes you wonder about some of those little ol' conspiracy theories.
