Terror via UPS?

UPS planes have  been isolated at Newark and Philly due to suspicious packages.   FOX is reporting that the Newark plane has been cleared.

Apparently there was a  similar situation at  East Midlands near London, but information is a bit sketchy there.   FOX is reporting from the Leicestershire police a suspicious package in the UPS distribution area which came on a plane from Yemen headed to the USA.  FOX is now reporting that all the planes originated in Yemen except one in Philly which came from Paris.

So far this sounds like a terrorist feint,  which they like to do to test defenses and responses.    What this proves is that the  jihad Johnnies understand the liberals currently in charge to be pander pansies,  but haven’t the slightest clue to the psyches of ordinary Americans.    Do they really imagine that the threat will make us fold up  like France and beg Democrats to keep us safe?   The only way this helps Dems is if it pushes their  “accomplishments” off the front page.

That said,   Christine O’Donnell  has cut her opponents’ lead in half,  which may be due to revulsion at the Gawker sex hit job on her,  and Meg Whitman is suddenly  closing on Moonbeam Brown so that Rasmussen has moved the race back to toss-up.

I think it’s a probe in an effort to influence the elections,  given that there was also a bomb threat on the Metro this morning,  and there are more reports from  New York.

UPDATE:  Since nothing more than an altered toner cartridge seems to have been found,  this was a coordinated probe.    Nothing gives me less confidence than to know our panderer-in-chief was informed Thursday night.  His  pathetic remarks before turning the podium over to clueless John Brennan and bolting instill despair.   Claiming we’re working closer than ever with Yemeni officials may sound really good to His Oneness,  but he and Brennan are fools if they trust any of them a fraction as much as they appear to.

The L.A. Times has a  piece up,  and BigGovernment.com asks a question.   Andy McCarthy  has two good  posts up.
