From July 2003 - FBI: Al Qaeda detainee spoke of fire plot.
I posted this article in another thread and was wondering if anybody else had seen it. I'm not a tin hat wearer but 7-8 different fires in a short span of time set in almost an arc pattern makes you kind of wonder.

PHOENIX (AP) — The FBI alerted law enforcement agencies last month that an al-Qaeda terrorist now in detention had talked of masterminding a plot to set a series of devastating forest fires around the western United States.
Rose Davis, a spokeswoman for the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, told The Associated Press that officials there took note of the warning but didn't see a need to act further on it.

The contents of the June 25 memo from the FBI's Denver office were reported Friday by The Arizona Republic. Davis declined to share a copy of the memo and an FBI spokeswoman in Denver didn't immediately return a telephone call.

1. It must be bad in SoCal right now. I remember reading about this too.
They even moved the Monday Night Football game tonight from San Diego to Tempe. Maybe there's more to that story too.

2. After a litle more interrogation, he also confessed to killing JonBenet

Sources indicate that a big breakthrough in the unsolved Crucifixion of Jesus case is expected shortly.
