          Location: Bastrop, Texas | If those reports are correct, I can see how they could really do some damage somewhere in North Africa or maybe around the Mediterranean, but I highly doubt they are a threat for us here in the US. I'm pretty sure any rogue aircraft approaching the US mainland would be picked up by radar well in advance of their reaching US airspace. Still, if these reports are accurate, I'm sure they would come up with some way to kill as many people as possible. I would think that with satellite imaging they wouldn't be able to hide 12 jetliners all that easily. One thing for sure is we are dealing with some evil sonsab!tches....almost anything is possible. If you take a step back and really think about it, it's just a matter of time until they do something big and very bad somewhere. |

| Overwhelming to think about. One of the ISIS used to pilot for Delta Airlines. Putting it all together is frightening. Don't forget Pakistan lost a couple of planes. |

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | A person can think of a lot of scenarios with this bunch having planes and a pilot. The worst possible one would be if they had their hands on one of those "suitcase nukes" that has been missing ever since the fall of the Soviet Union. One of the biggest hurdles in using a nuclear device is the delivery system....like ICBMs. I know this is a doomsday scenario, but what if they had one of those nukes. Now they have planes and pilots. Fly one of those suckers (armed with a nuke) low enough to avoid radar detection and get even close to Israel.....well, that would possibly be the worst disaster in human history. I know, I know.....I need some tin foil. But, what if? |

          Location: Bastrop, Texas | One of the repeated messages that came out of the 9-11 commission was that there was a "failure of imagination" on our part....meaning CIA, FBI, etc.... I sincerely hope Obama really does realize that we need a real "coalition" to organize and go after these loons and destroy them wherever they are found. |

If this is true, I'm not surprised. We already know that Obama and other Liberals want Isreal wiped off the map. Something that I will never understand is.... why? Isreal has been one of our greatest allies. What is the deal with the hatred? |

Could it be because the jews of Israel are God's chosen people? |

        Location: Kansas | I saw on FOX last night where literally thousands of foreigners here on student visas (supposed to eventually go home right?) have disappeared and are unaccounted for. Our country is so easy to gain a foothold in..... and be funded by our social programs to make life more comfortable for them.

| Enough with McCain, he is a crazy senile old man that needed to retire decades ago. If I remember correctly he didnt think ISIS was a big deal a couple months ago... |

     Location: In The Land of Cotton | Since everyone seems to think it is okay we have tin foil hats - here is my take -
Even though the planes are missing and so are thousands of "students". I see them taking vehicles marked liked taxis and filling them with homemade bombs. Then at let's say - 10.30 am E bombarding downtown NY or DC. Then at the same time 9.30 am C - doing it in Chicago and so forth all across the US. What a chain reaction and it is not that far fetched.
The FBI, CIA etc, all need to start thinking "outside" of the box on attacks. Where is the reynold's wrap?
