Please read this article.....

"Hijackers lived American dream -
Terrorism suspects had homes, kids and barbecues"


To sum it up, it is horrifying to know that these terrorists lived quietly for years in Western countries while awaiting the call to strike. (known as "sleepers")


Some excerpts that stood out to me:

"Many of the 19 suicide hijackers believed responsible for Tuesday's terrorist attacks had lived in the United States for years, quietly masking their loathing for the country with backyard pizza parties and trips to the local mall.....

and......

The behaviour of some of the alleged hijackers was typical of the so-called "sleepers" in bin Laden's network, who often live quietly for years in Western countries while awaiting the call to strike. It is a facet of bin Laden's network that has frustrated intelligence agencies: How do you distinguish hidden terrorists from ordinary immigrants?


I found the article to be very disturbing and bone chilling....
