Since early November, I have noticed sporadic media reports from several states about bomb threats being called into federal court houses and other government buildings, and not of the run-of-the-mill variety. No bombs were ever found, and no one has been injured.
Two incidents are coincidence, three is a pattern. This has now occured in five states since early November — that is a flashing red light warning. This has all the earmarks of domestic terrorism, someone is testing the system to gauge the response. This story is going unpreported by the mainstream corporate media. I guess they need carnage and dead bodies first to make it news — "if it bleeds it leads."
Rachel Maddow has the only report I am aware of into this story. Her
staff contacted the FBI and Homeland Securty to ask if these incidents
are related and they were informed "yes." The FBI has narrowed the calls
down to "a couple of cell phones of the throw away variety." This needs to be on law enforcement radar, and the media needs to be paying closer attention. We don't need the first warning to be the next Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building — Oklahoma City (April 1995).
