Fort Dix Terror Plot
A quick point about the Albanian terrorists who were arrested for plotting to wreak havoc at Fort Dix. They were initially discovered because of the vigilance of a local video store owner:
On or about January 30, 2006, a representative of a retail store informed officials of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”) that an individual had brought a video to their store to be duplicated into a digital video disk (“DVD”). That DVD depicted conduct–recorded as having occurred on January 3, 2006–that the store representative described as disturbing. FBI agents reviewed the DVD in question. The DVD depicted 10 young men who appeared to be in their early twenties shooting assault weapons at a firing range in a militia-like style while calling for jihad and shouting in Arabic “Allah Akbar” (“God is Great”). The FBI and Joint Terrorism Task Force (“JTTF”) immediately commenced an investigation into the activities of the men depicted in the DVD.
We need to remember that–whether or not we want to or not–we may one day find ourselves thrust onto the front line of the war on terror. Be ready.
Muslim terrorist plot against Fort Dix? It must be another Bush lie!
War on Terror? What War on Terror?

An example closer to home of citizen vigilance is that truck driving school in Massachusetts which contacted the authorities about a student who appeared indifferent about many aspects of driving an 18 wheeler.
