#1 Yes, we need more islamic barbarians from the lands of the barbarians. Or maybe lets help the libtard professors at universities recruit more militants to attack rallies of people they disagree with. The US Military is a formidable opponent for both these groups.

#2 The threat has to be taken seriously but I'm thinking the real damage here is disruption to the normal routine so it is an easy and effective way to cause minor disruption. But real bombers don't threaten, they bomb.

#3 From the updated article:

An early morning bomb investigation prompted the closure of the main gate to Naval Air Station North Island in Coronado after a Navy petty officer approached the main gate and told the guard she feared there was a bomb in the trunk of her car.

Traffic was snarled through the morning commute after a gate was closed at 3rd Street and Alameda Boulevard was initiated just after 5 a.m., according to Navy officials. Base Security evacuated the area in the vicinity of the main gate, including the child development center.

After calling in Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal and a Military Working Dog unit, crews determined there was no evidence of a bomb inside the vehicle.

The main gate was reopened shortly after 11:30 a.m.

Odd.
