New York, Virginia and Texas will be hyper-vigilant tomorrow due to an al Qaeda sourced cyber attack threat aimed at those three states.
First of all, this is terrifying. Especially since Texas is an alleged target. What I find most interesting is that I first heard of this threat from a friend, then checked news sources. I can't find anything about this on NPR, which is my most trusted news source. Part of me wonders if there isn't something hidden beneath the surface of this threat...or if it is even legitimate.
Were those states mentioned to distract our attention from their real target?
Threats like this have been made in the past and resulted in nothing.
What if something tragic really does happen?
But would they really give us warning if they were planning something? Wouldn't it be more like 9/11, which we didn't see coming at all?
I'm sitting here trying to keep my cool--because at this point in time I have no control over the situation.
But I can't ignore what I know, nor the questions circling around in my brain.
