Ugh..ok, well how did they find out they were terrorists in a chat room? Did they just wake up one morning and guess? Dart board perhaps? They are constantly scanning the internet, rooms of computers constantly checking and red flagging anything. If you talk over the phone, and say certain words, it can be logged and red flagged. Same things with words on the internet. I forget the program, but it seaches for certain words used on the internet. If I say such things as bomb, explosive, Holland Tunnel, etc etc, the computer will track it down.
Now, this is an example when the system does work, and the goverment can now justify its reason to pry into personal lives of millions of Americans cause they caught some terrorists.
The goverment tracks everything you say, I say, we all say. They then desipher that on some small message board related about cars, that this place isnt that big of a threat, but they might focus in on other sites that have more radical purposes, like Honda and Toyota sites....crazy asians....anyway, but its not that they just know who to look for. If it was that easy, War on Terror would be short!! They dont know who to look for. Its not the "arab" looking guy. Terror has no nationality, no race, no religion, no purpose other then to strike fear into the masses. And they are doing it with GREAT effect. They have caused America, home of the free, to live in fear. This has happend before, and will happen again in the future. History has repeated itself time and time again. McCarthy Era, Red Scare, WWII Internment Camps, hell the Cold War was all about living in fear!! Do you think that all of this, all of what we are doing today, is really gunna stop some sleeper cell in some small city from another attack? I, for one, sure as hell dont think so. All this wont ever just stop them. They wont ever give up. The War on Terror will never end.
