Is Chicago about as vulnerable as Mumbai to a Rivereen Style Attack?
Thursday, September 17th, 2009Mumbai had no coast Guard on duty — Chicago has no coast guard on duty. Mumbai has no sea level radar. Chicago has no lake level radar. A zephyr boat was able to get to within 500 yards of the Taj Mahal hotel. A small wooden speedboat boat could get within 50 yards of the base of the Sears Tower. India’s DOD was totally fat, dumb, happy and asleep. USA’s Homeland Security is fat dumb happy and asleep. The Pakistan Terror group that attacked the Taj Mahal had lots of time to practice but only about $25,000 to spend. A rivereen style attack on the Sears Tower with a kiloton level explosive device might be even better financed than $25,000. The Mumbai attack was based on a fishing vessel to launch the zephyr boats. A small boat headed for the Sears tower could negotiate the lake down from Green Bay, anywhere on that coast. The Indians were living in the world of Duh! We Americans of course are much different, we live in the world of Doh! (like Homer Simpson).
