Excactly. That crossed my mind too; it is kind of encouraging in a roundabout way.

Hi Joe,
Yes.
I truly believe it's more than simply coincidence. And I'm putting my energy & emotion behind that belief! Lets all do more and more ... and put that numbness and disillusionment behind. And lets all be more kind to one another (self reminder) -- and transduce nothing but love/ truth.
FWIW.
And now they're 'agreeing' with our follow-up report about the terrorists working at the airport, but twisting it to blame ISIS, not ICTS!

Dear angelburst29
Just wanted to say thank you. You are pulling in the information from so many sources that I have neither the time nor skills to accomplish. This is a step in the process I find the most overwhelming. I find this particularly true on major tradgedies, I look for your posts because I will find many references examining a given storyline with updates as it plays out. For example, a thread on aviation disasters. As well as Russian and Middle East developments. Often you make comments have allowed me to glean a greater comprehension on unfamiliar topics and why certain incidents relate. The Forum and Sott have made it possible to fit the pieces of my worldview together as objectively as possible. The information here is a like being at a gluttonous buffet for the mind sometimes. It's almost necessary to fast from it once in a while but one begins to lose ground quickly and it can be hard to catch up again. I commend yours and the many other fact and disinformation collectors that make this forum such a valuable resource of information. I am learning so much I don't think would have been possible otherwise. Laura's suggestion that the Forum, at some time because of dire circumstances, could possibly be be limited to certain individuals gave me a genuine sense of how afraid being cut off from rational thinkers would be. It would be frightening. I hope we are sharing for many years to come. The ability to exchange and gain knowledge and understanding is truly a blessing. My deepest gratitude to all who's hard work keep us informed.

Very much appreciated Charade and Thank You.
The information may seem overwhelming at times but I think, we need to take into consideration, the consequences of the World around us and how it affects us personally, in our daily lives. Our World is very much interconnected with communications and air travel. A disruption in either one or both could happen in a heart beat.
Another thing to consider, especially those of us living in the United States, the need to reconcile with the fact that our Government and certain high profile Agencies including the Military Industrial Complex have perpetuated (undeclared) war and war crimes in other Countries bringing death and destruction. You can't set the World on fire, reaching all four corners of the Earth ... and not expect ... to get burned! What goes around - comes back in equal force. We may not be fully aware of it, but we're now reaping "the consequences".
Our economy and living standards are in complete shambles. The same modalities used in other Countries, to wreck death and bloody destruction have now crossed our Borders, into our cities and our home towns. Do you seriously think - another Country will come to our recuse? The Government and the elites have their underground cities to escape. We are the one's that will be facing "the music" when SHTF.
It may be in our best interests, to at least keep up with local news, as well as, World events. Communications are still open and the information we read or hear today, may help at a later date, in keeping ourselves and our families safe. Remember, it's not "where we are" but who we are and what we "know" that really matters.

It's good to hear from you, Horseofadifferentcolor! I look forward to reading your Post's and often wonder "how you're doing" if I don't see you for any length of time? I may be a "city dweller" now .... but it has never taken "the country" out of me. As far as I'm concerned, growing up in the country - were "the Good ol' Days"! I'd do it again, in a heart beat - given the opportunity. But there are also memories that it was a "hard life" physically, in taking care of the animals, with additional responsibility but the rewards were more gratifying. I'll take "Starlight" verses "neon" any day! So, keep in touch with the Forum, so we know you're - OK.

Two recent developments give me pause - am I being paranoid or situationally aware?
A 6 month shutdown would probably work out to sometime in October - an ominous October surprise in the works - right before Nov presidential election? And what, pray tell, is the deal w/ the C4 on schoolbuses and in a public school in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area?!! Are these elements of a major false flag in the making? Do other schools & their buses have C4 nefariously installed? Will the shutdown of the metro keep pitchfork/torch wielding citizens from storming the WH & Congress when the global financial collapse ensues - along w/ exploding schools & buses? I don't suppose there's been a movie w/ this scenario featured . . .

I don't think of it as being paranoid, JEEP, more in line with - trying to keep informed on happenings in and around Washington, D.C., our Capital. Shutting down the one line for the Metro, for any length of time, seems excessive and poor planning for a Metro line that serves "a high traffic area" into the Capital. What the situation suggests to me, the Metro has been lax on periodic maintenance or funding, or both. It would be interesting to keep track of how this situation plays out, along with any other odd developments, in and around our Capitol?

A month before the Brussels attacks, a "foreign fighter surge team” consisting of the FBI and Homeland Security met with their Belgian counterparts - to discuss "security".
U.S. Officials Met With Belgians on Security Concerns Before Attacks

WASHINGTON — A “foreign fighter surge team” of experts from the F.B.I., the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security met with their Belgian counterparts a month before the Brussels terrorist attacks to try to correct gaps in Belgium’s widely criticized ability to track terrorist plots, American officials said.
The half-dozen experts focused on long-term structural fixes to the Belgians’ failure to share intelligence effectively and to tighten porous borders, but not on providing information about suspected Islamic State operatives. The recommendations, even if accepted, would not have prevented the attacks at the Brussels Airport and in the city’s subway last month, the officials said.
But the gaps addressed in two days of meetings, held at Belgium’s request at the United States Embassy in Brussels, underscore the urgency and the frustration senior American officials say they feel as they prod many European allies to embrace the kind of counterterrorism lessons the United States learned after the Sept. 11 attacks. The American experts have also visited Greece and are expected to travel to France and Germany in the coming weeks, Obama administration officials said.
The team was part of a little-noticed White House plan announced after the Paris terrorist attacks in November to help Western European allies shore up their defenses and borders to avert the next big attack that European and American terrorism officials feared was inevitable.
President Obama, speaking at a summit meeting on nuclear security in Washington last week, alluded to the deployment of the “surge teams” to Belgium and emphasized, “We simply cannot afford to have critical intelligence not being shared as needed — whether between governments or within governments.” (Article continues.)
