AlQaeda interview confirms my long suspicion: US$ targeted

Al-Usuquf insists that September 11 "was just the beginning. It was a way to call the world's attention to what's going to happen." He then details a plan to destroy the US by "attacking the heart of what they consider the most important thing in the world: money".
(my suspicion since last winter... target is the USDollar, which is far far more vulnerable than we imagine)
.....

"So 75 percent of its GNP comes from services, and most of it is financial speculation."
(this is untrue, since services include restaurants, tax prep, FedEx etc, oil drilling, business consulting, teaching, repair of HVAC, installation of equipment, simple banking services, simple insurance services, landscaping, cleaning, etc... I would say speculation is a mere 5-8% of services)
.....

"What I'm saying is if US credibility is affected, its stocks - the US dollar - will fall at tremendous speed, and the whole American economy will collapse."
(I agree, very possible, or at least slow enough to cause havoc)
.....

"Seven nuclear heads have already been positioned on American soil, before September 11, and they are ready to be detonated. Before September 11, American security was a fiasco, and even later, if we needed, we could position the bombs there."
(as frightening as this sounds, extremely possible, provided AlQaeda indeed possesses such weapons, which is very doubtful, but I have been concerned about Soviet nukes on black market since 1991)
.....

"As to the "rich people", they are "people who are also tired of seeing the US bleeding the rest of the world."
(we do bleed the whole world in order to sustain our consumption and standard of living, with financing now at $800-900 billion per year, and by securitizing our Trez debt all the risk lies in the holders, whereas with South America by setting it up as installment loans all the risk lies with them)

ME:
some serious shit is coming down the pike
we Americans live in LaLaLand with thoughts of security
our society and land is an open book, an open door
how can we stop weapons when we still issue passports to terrorists?
we have 1000's of cargo containers entering our ports
we saw many of them in Long Beach CA oceanside in early October
anyone who thinks these are inspected is kooky

think GOLD
since with/without terrorism, the USDollar is toast
this is a great time not to live near NYCity, LA, Chicago, SFran, WashDC, Boston
Pitt is a dump, but it might be a safe dump fully 500 miles due east and slightly south of Chicago
