A bad sign?

Ayman al-Zawahri warns of massive troop losses, the gold market closes at 444, up 6/7 days, and the equities markets are off today. I hope our military leaders have our troops widely dispersed. A really big bomb in the green zone would be a terrible embarrassment. We do not need another barracks bombing like in Lebanon, and how would we react? Their strategy is one of escalating by increasingly outrageous acts prodding us into over extended reactions. Is this war about to go nuclear? --- Think!
