Is Homeland Security raising anxiety in the mountains, harboring terrorists in the dark hollows of Calhoun or other
backwood counties?
State Military Affairs and Public Safety
Secretary Joe Martin said yesterday
West Virginians no longer
have the luxury of knowing their state is
safe and untouchable from terrorists.
Kasey Warner, U. S. Attorney for Southern West Virginia says
that if he were a terrorist looking for a
good place to hide and plan an attack, he
would come to West Virginia.
He says West Virginia's illegal
drug and gun networks, central location on
the East Coast, remote hollows, chemical
plants and interstate highways make it a great spot
for terrorists.
Warner is convinced the next major terrorist
attack will be in the "heartland."
He has
studied terrorism and guerrilla operations
for 32 years.
There is no evidence of
specific threats against targets in West
Virginia.
