  Article: AN ABSOLUTE MUST READ FOR EVERY AMERICAN!   Juval
                                    Aviv was the Israeli Agent upon whom the movie 'Munich' was based. He was Golda Meir's bodyguard, and she appointed
                                    him to track down and bring to justice the Palestinian terrorists who took the Israeli athletes hostage and killed them during
                                    the Munich Olympic Games. 
 In a lecture in New York City he shared information that EVERY American needs
                                    to know -- but that our government has not yet shared with us.
 
 He predicted
                                    the London subway bombing on the Bill O'Reilly show on Fox News stating publicly that it would happen within a week.
                                    At the time, O'Reilly laughed, and mocked him saying that in a week he wanted him back on the show. Unfortunately, within
                                    a week the terrorist attack had occurred.
 
 Juval Aviv gave intelligence
                                    (via what he had gathered in Israel and the Middle East) to the Bush Administration about 9/11, a month before
                                    it occurred. His report specifically said they would use planes as bombs and target high profile buildings and monuments.
                                    Congress has since hired him as a security consultant.
 
 Now
                                    for his future predictions: He predicts the next terror attack on the U.S. will occur within
                                    the next few months.
 
 Forget hijacking
                                    airplanes, because he says terrorists will NEVER try and hijack a plane again as they know the people onboard will never go
                                    down quietly again. Aviv believes our airport security is a joke -- that we have been reactionary rather than proactive
                                    in developing strategies that are truly effective.
 
 For example:
 
 1) Our airport technology is outdated. We look for metal, and the
                                    new explosives are made of plastic.
 
 2)
                                    He talked about how some idiot tried to light his shoe on fire. Because of that, now everyone has to take off their shoes.
                                    A group of idiots tried to bring aboard liquid explosives. Now we can't bring liquids on board. He says he's waiting for some
                                    suicidal maniac to pour liquid explosive on his underwear; at which point, security will have us all traveling naked!
 Every
                                    strategy we have is reactionary.
 
 3) We only focus on security when people are heading
                                    to the gates.
 
 Aviv says that if a terrorist attack targets airports
                                    in the future, they will target busy times on the front end of the airport when/where people are checking
                                    in. It would be easy for someone to take two suitcases of explosives, walk up to a busy check-in line, ask a person next to
                                    them to watch their bags for a minute while they run to the restroom or get a drink, and then detonate
                                    the bags BEFORE security even gets involved. In Israel, security checks bags BEFORE people can even ENTER the airport.
 
 Aviv
                                    says the next terrorist attack here in America is imminent and will involve suicide bombers and non-suicide bombers
                                    in places where large groups of people congregate. (i.e., Disneyland, Las Vegas casinos, big cities (New York, San Francisco,
                                    Chicago, etc.) and that it will also include shopping
                                    malls, subways in rush hour, train stations, etc.,
                                    as well as, rural America this time - the interlands (Wyoming, Montana, etc.).
 
 The attack will be characterized
                                    by simultaneous detonations around the country (terrorists like big impact), involving at least 5-8 cities, including rural
                                    areas.
 
 Aviv says terrorists won't need to use suicide bombers in
                                    many of the larger cities, because at places like the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, they can simply valet park a car loaded
                                    with explosives and walk away.
 
 Aviv says all of
                                    the above is well known in intelligence circles, but that our U.. S. Government does not want to 'alarm American
                                    citizens' with the facts. The world is quickly going to become 'a different place', and issues like 'global warming' and political
                                    correctness will become totally irrelevant.
 
 On an encouraging note, he says that Americans don't have to be concerned about being nuked.
                                    Aviv says the terrorists who want to destroy America will not use sophisticated weapons. They like to use suicide
                                    as a front-line approach. It's cheap, it's easy, it's effective; and they have an infinite abundance of young militants more
                                    than willing to 'meet their destiny'.
 
 He also says the
                                    next level of terrorists, over which America should be most concerned, will not be coming from abroad.  But
                                    will be, instead, 'homegrown', having attended and been educated in our own schools and universities right here in the U.S.
                                    He says to look for 'students' who frequently travel back and forth to the Middle East. These young terrorists will
                                    be most dangerous because they will know our language and will fully understand the habits of Americans; but that we
                                    Americans won't know/understand a thing about them.
 Aviv says that, as a people, Americans
                                    are unaware and uneducated about the terrorist threats we will inevitably face.  America still has only a
                                    handful of Arabic and Farsi speaking people inour intelligence networks, and Aviv says it is critical that we change that
                                    fact SOON.
 
 So, what can America do to
                                    protect itself? From an intelligence perspective, Aviv says the U.S. needs to stop relying on satellites and technology
                                    for intelligence. We need to, instead, follow Israel's, Ireland's and England's hands-on examples of human
                                    intelligence, both from an infiltration perspective as well as to pay attention to, and trust 'aware' citizens to help. We
                                    need to engage and educate ourselves as citizens; however, our U. S. government continues to treat us, its citizens, 'like babies'.
                                    Our government thinks we 'can't handle the truth' and are concerned that we'll panic if we understand the realities of terrorism.
                                    Aviv says this is a deadly mistake.
 
 Aviv recently created/executed a security test for our Congress, by placing an
                                    empty briefcase in five well-traveled spots in five major cities. The results? Not one person called 911 or sought a policeman
                                    to check it out. In fact, in Chicago, someone tried to steal the briefcase!
 
 In
                                    comparison, Aviv says that citizens of Israel are so well 'trained' that an unattended bag or package would be reported
                                    in seconds by citizen(s) who know to publicly shout, 'Unattended Bag!' The area would be quickly & calmly cleared by
                                    the citizens themselves.
 
 Unfortunately, America hasn't
                                    been yet 'hurt enough' by terrorism for their government to fully understand the need to educate its citizens or for
                                    the government to understand that it's their citizens who are, inevitably, the best first-line of defense against
                                    terrorism.
 
 Aviv also was concerned about the high
                                    number of children here in America who were in preschool and kindergarten after 9/11, who were 'lost' without parents being
                                    able to pick them up, and about our schools that had no plan in place to best care for the students until parents could
                                    get there. (In New York City, this was days, in some cases!)
 
 He
                                    stresses the importance of having a plan, that's agreed upon within your family, of how to respond in the event of a terrorist
                                    emergency. He urges parents to contact their children's schools and demand that the schools too, develop plans of actions,
                                    just as they do in Israel.
 
 Does
                                    your family know what to do if you can't contact one another by phone? Where would you gather in an emergency? He says we
                                    should all have a plan that is easy enough for even our youngest children to remember and follow.
 
 Aviv says that the U. S. government has in force a plan, that
                                    in the event of another terrorist
 attack, EVERYONE's ability to use cell phones,
                                    blackberries, etc., will immediately be cut-off, as this is the preferred communication source used by terrorists and
                                    is often the way that their bombs are detonated.
 
 How will you communicate with your loved ones in the event you cannot speak
                                    to each other? You need to have a plan.
 
 If you understand,
                                    and believe what you have just read, then you must feel compelled to send this to every concerned parent, guardian, grandparents,
                                    uncles, aunts, whomever. Don't stop there. In addition to sharing this via e-mail, contact and discuss this information with
                                    whomever it makes sense to. Make contingency plans with those you care about. Better that you have plans
                                    in place, and never have to use them, then to have no plans in place, and find you needed them.
 
 If
                                    you choose not to share this, or not to have a plan in place, and nothing ever occurs -- good for you! However,
                                    in the event  something does happen, and even more-so, if it directly affects your loved
                                    ones, then this e-mail will haunt you forever.
 
 Telling yourself
                                    after the fact, "I should have sent this to so and so, but deleted it as so much trash from old Bill Jones, plus,
                                    I just didn't believe it", will not change anything. You were alerted, had the chance to do something, and
                                    instead of erring on the side of caution, you chose to disregard, if nothing else, a sensible, valuable warning.
                                    Don't allow yourself to be caught unprepared.
God Bless
                                    America...And
                                    those that protect her
