Uh-oh, Guys

The Washington Post want to scare the shit out of YOU!

Report says Al-Qaeda still aims to use weapons of mass destruction against U.S.

"When al-Qaeda's No. 2 leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, called off a planned chemical attack on New York's subway system in 2003, he offered a chilling explanation: The plot to unleash poison gas on New Yorkers was being dropped for "something better," Zawahiri said in a message intercepted by U.S. eavesdroppers.

"The meaning of Zawahiri's cryptic threat remains unclear more than six years later, but a new report warns that al-Qaeda has not abandoned its goal of attacking the United States with a chemical, biological or even nuclear weapon."

"The commission's initial report in December 2008 warned that a terrorist attack using weapons of mass destruction was likely by 2013."

So, basically, terrorists would still totally be into attacking the United States with a nuclear bombs, if they had them. Got it. And they're probably going to get one by 2012 2013, apparently. I'm sold. And terrified. I mean, if some arbitrarily ranked al-Qaeda operative called off an attack in 2003 for "something better," he was probably talking about some terrifying plan 10 years down the road. Sure. Because you can't have two attacks within 10 years of each other. It's simply not done. Let's up the alert level to red, build some bomb shelters under our apartment buildings, and up the military budget (which Obama is proposing to do by a little over $30 billion, even as he is about to freeze most other forms of government spending). Unless this already looks right to you:
