They didn't go away you know....

Listening to a discussion on CNN the day after President elect Obama won the U.S. Presidential race, made me think about what the terrorists may be thinking.

It really is fairly easy for the average citizen to push these thoughts out of their mind, but we should always keep it somewhere in our minds - close enough to recall it when necessary.

Bill Clinton was "tested" early in his Presidency as was the U.K.'s new Prime Minister - Gordon Brown. In PM Brown's case it came 72 hours after the Election in Britain. How long may we wait to see something here..or overseas, but definitely aimed at inflciting U.S. casualties?

Bottom line - we should always remian alert and open to the idea that something could happen and we can not afford to drop our guard and think "they have gone". Terrorists have great amounts of patience. They conduct surveillance right under the noses of their intended victims. As the old saying goes; "we have to be successful every single time - they only have to be lucky once".
