Teh Anti FUD Post of the Day

[Pliablemoose]

FBI , Justice Department and Homeland Security Department officials aren't talking much about the threat of a terrorist attack to disrupt the election in two weeks.

It hasn't gone away; they're just wary of saying anything in public that could prompt Democrats to charge the administration is playing up a terror threat to frighten voters.

By all accounts, many hundreds of law enforcement agents are working around the clock to prevent al-Qaida from pulling off the major attack that intelligence suggests the terror network wants to carry out before the Nov. 2 election.

As part of the anti-terror effort, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials say they have arrested more than 91 visa violators since Oct. 1, including several tagged for national security reasons.

Among those recently arrested were a 28-year-old Saudi who was stopped last year from boarding a commercial aircraft carrying a high-voltage stun gun. He was picked up for violating terms of a student visa. Another was a 34-year-old Jordanian, also a student visa violator, who was the subject of a "national security lookout," officials said without providing further details.
