Although snopes declares this to be false.  The man DOES make some valid
points and let's face it folks...with all the terrorists nuts out
there...this could POTENTIALLY become true.

PLEASE SCROLL DOWN.........FYI 
 
Juval Aviv - He was Golda Meir's bodyguard
 
 
Juval Aviv was the Israeli Agent upon whom the movie ' Munich' was based..
He was Golda Meir's bodyguard -- 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 a few weeks ago, 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.
But, 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 terrorist 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1) Our airport technology is outdated.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 like
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 (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 have a
handful of Arabic and Farsi speaking people in our 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 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. But, 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, to respond to 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, 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, will immediately cut-off EVERYONE's ability to
use cell phones, blackberries, etc., 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?
You need to have a plan. 
 
If you believe what you have just read, then you must feel compelled to send
to every concerned parent or guardian, grandparents, uncles, aunts, whatever
and whomever. Nothing will happen if you choose not to do so, but in the
event it does happen, this particular email will haunt you..."I should have
sent this to..... ", but I didn't believe it and just deleted it as trash.
