Somehow can't imagine France and Germany teamed up for any reason.

But the packages in question originated from Yemen...the terrorist capital of the world. Initial reports from Homeland Security is this could be a potential dry run. Airports in New York, Chicago, Philly, and Newark on high alert.

Better to check and be cautious than sorry.

WWII has been over for half a century...get over it...

EXACTLY! Definitely something ominous on the horizon here. One package had an ink cartridge with white power and wires coming out. Sounds like a dry run for something bigger. Good to see our intelligence is on the ball. Thank God.

Boy and close to election day too. I cant help but think of the scene in V where they say "We need to remind them why they are afraid. We need to remind them why they need us."

This was, apparently, not a dry run. The two packages that started all this did contain explosive elements.

[wolfie]

Doc your thinking exactly what i was thinking.

[Brad]

It was defiantly not a dry run. They were meant for two Chicago area Synagogues. Thankfully they were not delivered. This really ticks me off both as a Chicago area native and as a Jewish person. World War II may have been over for a long time now but antisemitism sure isn't.

Sorry but the Megos you where waiting for have been blown up. Next time use the postal service you may get anthrax but you package will get there.

That's kind of what I was thinking. I'm not making light of a potentially more serious situation, but since nothing happened I'm talking toys.

That would totally suck if you won a holy grail for your collection from someone overseas and it blew up over the atlantic or someplace. Try explaining the value of the boxed Mego Shark to the UPS guys.
