U.S. electric grid & other targets make our citizens vulnerable to ISIS attack

Details: Written by Robert Anderson; Published: 09 September 2014

Analyst's note: The truth about a number of our national vulnerabilities are finally being made known to American citizens .... who are being targeted. No, an attack does NOT need to go beyond simple firepower and/or aircraft from the hands of terrorist. Our enemies already know. Thanks to Obama, they smell blood in the water — ours. Note also that thanks to Mr. Obama and his "useful idiots," our borders are wide-open. Not to worry, Obama Urges Americans To ‘be Prepared’ … But Wait Till You Hear What For. When will America stand up and say enough is enough? We note that Al Qaeda Magazine Calls For Terror Attacks In America on Soft-Targets, Includes ‘How-To” Articles On Bomb Making. Also see another big thanks to Mr. Obama: Terror alert: Foreign students go off grid with expired visas.

"The Department of Homeland Security says 6,000 of them represent a national security threat, but the DHS admits it has no idea where they are. While the 6,000 are considered subjects of interest, DHS says it has lost track of 58,000 foreigners who entered the U.S. on student visas. “If we had a more competent visa program, we might have prevented 9/11,”
