Nor were the shooters in Columbine or Platt Canyon here in Colorado.
I'm not in favor of any weapons in schools, except when carried by trained law enforcement officers. But, that's not the topic here.
While I'm not saying that this senario is impossible, I'm always suspicious of "sky is falling" predictions. I don't know if Al Queda (I'm never sure of that spelling) is really capable of operations of this size -- and if they are, is all of the money and human resources we're expending on the war on terror being wasted?
One thing that Al Queda is pretty good at is scaring the hell out of people with inuendo and shadowy comments. They haven't always been good at follow up.
I'm sure someone will bring up 9/11, but this alleged operation would be much larger and more complex.
