I don't think the raising of the terror alert is a ploy to patronize Americans at all. The fact of the matter is, if we do go to war in Iraq, the chances of terrorist attacks taking place on US soil is certainly going to be increased. If something god forbid were to happen and the terror alert was not raised, the American public would want to know why they weren't warned. Granted the alert level doesn't change everything in our day to day lives, but it does make us more aware of the threat. Every law enforcement agency in the country is working together to ensure our safety, etc. as is our government so maybe we should all be a little less critical of certain things and be thankful that they're doing all they can to prevent anything like September 11, from ever happening again.
Thank you, and I'll get off my soap box now.
