Jed Babbin's missive on the pre-emption of terrorist plots hits home in so many ways. The shadowy links of terrorist alliances (of convenience) come and go with frightening rapidity. Nation states such as Iran and North Korea openly flaunt their support of terror and showcase their capabilities with some regularity.

The Japanese probably had TO CHANGE THEIR DRAWERS TWICE -- once when the North Koreans fired a test missile over Japan, and a second time when they realized what the consequences might have been if a nuke warhead was attached.

The United States, with its Homeland Security forces of National Guard support for first responders -- National Guard WMD response teams -- is in a much better position to contain and handle an unthinkable CONUS terrorist occurrence than some of our allies might if their homeland were attacked.
