Only two? Really. My sources of news haven't presented it all that much like number one (some what...sure, but definately not like the war on terror is now over, or that any serious chink in the enemies armor has been inflicted. In fact I've even seen dems spin this that were not doing enough, because see how dangerous things still are???? )...and only your source has run with number two. I don't give a crap if it's ABC...well respected? Moderately, but any man with any sense should be able to realize that ANY of the main stream sources of news will spin any angle with the vaguest of evidence in order to appeal to readers/viewers. Looks like you've been hook.line.and.sinkered. I've seen several other theories presented right in this thread that sound more plausible then either of the ONLY two options you considered.

Nope, they'll all just spin and spin and spin..Some of my news sources even indicated that this guy wanted to take down Air Force One. Some FBI agent informs the media that the suspect informed the "buyers" that the missle could take down a 747. Some reporter interpreted that to mean HE WAS TRYING TO TAKE DOWN AIRFORCE ONE. Somebody wrong or right, huh...get to the bottom of it? What planet are you from?

I don't recall reading this from your hand. Please don't find it for me. I'll take it at face value that this is how you feel.
