1389 asks:

If this were twenty or thirty years ago, and a foreign enemy was found to be plotting to attack American troops on American soil, everyone would have been up in arms - literally! Why isn't this on the front page of every newspaper? Shouldn't there be an ongoing investigation to find everyone else who is linked to these jihadists, and to uncover other terrorist cells that involve jihadists from the Balkans? Put it this way: if our heads are in the sand, then we are going to be kicked in some other part of our anatomy.

Sadly, the Internet and the mainstream media are populated with too many self-appointed censors who have decided that it's in their interest to downplay the very real dangers that we are facing. What's more, according to this New York Sun article, Islamist-Left Alliance A Growing Force, the Internet has become an important tool for jihadist communication and recruitment.
