Missing Libyan Jetliners Raise Fears of Suicide Airliner Attacks on 9/11

Egypt set for military intervention as Libya spirals toward failed state

Islamist militias in Libya took control of nearly a dozen commercial jetliners last month, and western intelligence agencies recently issued a warning that the jets could be used in terrorist attacks across North Africa.

Intelligence reports of the stolen jetliners were distributed within the U.S. government over the past two weeks and included a warning that one or more of the aircraft could be used in an attack later this month on the date marking the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks against New York and Washington, said U.S. officials familiar with the reports.

“There are a number of commercial airliners in Libya that are missing,” said one official. “We found out on September 11 what can happen with hijacked planes.”

The official said the aircraft are a serious counterterrorism concern because reports of terrorist control over the Libyan airliners come three weeks before the 13th anniversary of 9/11 attacks and the second anniversary of the Libyan terrorist attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi.

Four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens, were killed in the Benghazi attack, which the Obama administration initially said was the result of a spontaneous demonstration against an anti-Muslim video.



I think a clip from MSNBC, from last year, is in order here . . .

This is really scary! Islamists have seized jetliners, the very thing used on 9/11. I suspect they will be used.  :argh:

Are these planes actually missing, as in no one knows where they are, or are they just under the control of the terrorists?  If it's the latter, they should be shot down when they start take off procedures.

Obama will still be considering what to do and studying it on Sept 12th or later. And I'll bet he plans to be out of NYC or DC. Perhaps he's planned a golfing trip on the West Coast with some of his pals.

He'll probably take his kids with him and leave Michele and the MIL in DC.
