I am a huge skeptic with anything unless I know that I know deep down there is some truth. So I did a check on snopes about this and researched with media coverages as well. [I will say I found out, that not everything you read on snopes is a 100% accurate!] Per snopes.com it was noted this is false, However, Fox News did an interview at the beginning of this month [January] and this year [2010] with Juval Aviv - He noted much of what is written below. So I am questioning snopes with the recent Fox News report. Fox also noted the book that AVIV wrote to help educate people on how to stay safe. His book is called "Staying safe."
Although, no one knows for sure when there will be an other attack or If there will be - we can not deny that it has been said and reported numerous times to be on guard, alert, aware of the surroundings around us. One thing Americans are uneducated on is preparations! Too many rely too much on the Government - Why? Every American person should be responsible for themselves and their families! Heck with the Government help! They have created too many problems in the first place!
Below I added 3 websites- unfortunately, but fortunately, from FEMA to prepare families for any mega crisis or disaster, you might check it out for your families sake! You can download the pdf files to your computer and print or reprint copies later.

As noted in an email we received: Again we researched this info to see if it was False or True: For the most part Snopes claims it is False, BUT.. Fox News reports the facts on a recent interview with Aviv!
Juval Aviv was the Israeli Agent upon whom the movie " Munich " was based.
He was Golda Meir's bodyguard -- she appointed him to track down and bring
to justice the Palestinian terrorists who took the Israeli athletes hostage
and killed them during the Munich Olympic Games.
In a lecture in New York City a few weeks ago, he shared information that
EVERY American needs to know -- but that our government has not yet shared
with us.
He predicted the London subway bombing on the Bill O'Reilly show on Fox
News, stating publicly that it would happen within a week. At the time,
O'Reilly laughed and mocked him saying that in a week he wanted him back on
the show. But, unfortunately, within a week the terrorist attack had
occurred.
Juval Aviv gave intelligence (via what he had gathered in Israel and the
Middle East) to the Bush Administration about 9/11 a month before it
occurred. His report specifically said they would use planes as bombs and
target high profile buildings and monuments. Congress has since hired him as
a security consultant.
Now for his future predictions. He predicts the next terrorist attack on the
U.S. Will occur within the next few months.
Forget hijacking airplanes, because he says terrorists will NEVER try and
hijack a plane again as they know the people onboard will never go down
quietly again. Aviv believes our airport security is a joke --
that we have been reactionary rather than proactive in developing strategies
that are truly effective.
For example:
1) Our airport technology is outdated. We look for metal, and the new
explosives are made of plastic.
2) He talked about how some idiot tried to light his shoe on fire.
Because of that, now everyone has to take off their shoes. A group of idiots
tried to bring aboard liquid explosives. Now we can't bring liquids on
board. He says he's waiting for some suicidal maniac to pour liquid
explosive on his underwear; at which point, security will have us all
traveling naked! Every strategy we have is reactionary.
3) We only focus on security when people are heading to the gates. Aviv says
that if a terrorist attack targets airports in the future, they will target
busy times on the front end of the airport when/where people are checking
in. It would be easy for someone to take two suitcases of explosives, walk
up to a busy check-in line, ask a person next to them to watch their bags
for a minute while they run to the restroom or get a drink, and then
detonate the bags BEFORE security even gets involved.
In Israel , security checks bags BEFORE people can even ENTER the airport.
Aviv says the next terrorist attack here in America is imminent and will
involve suicide bombers and non-suicide bombers in places where large groups
of people congregate (e.g. Disneyland, Las Vegas casinos, big cities (New
York, San Francisco , Chicago , etc...) and that it will also include shopping
malls, subways in rush hour, train stations, etc., as well as rural America
this time ( Wyoming , Montana , etc.).
The attack will be characterized by simultaneous detonations around the
country (terrorists like big impact), involving at least 5-8 cities,
including rural areas.
Aviv says terrorists won't need to use suicide bombers in many of the larger
cities, because at places like the MGM Grand in Las Vegas , they can simply
valet-park a car loaded with explosives and walk away.
Aviv says all of the above is well known in intelligence circles, but that
our U. S. Government does not want to "alarm American citizens"
with the facts. The world is quickly going to become "a different place",
and issues like "global warming" and political correctness will become
totally irrelevant.
On an encouraging note, he says that Americans don't have to be concerned
about being nuked. Aviv says the terrorists who want to destroy America will
not use sophisticated weapons. They like to use suicide as a front-line
approach. It's cheap, it's easy, it's effective; and they have an infinite
abundance of young militants more than willing to "meet their destiny".
He also says the next level of terrorists, over which America should be most
concerned, will not be coming from abroad but will be, instead,
"home-grown" -- having attended and been educated in our own schools and
universities right here in the U.. S. He says to look for "students"
who frequently travel back and forth to the Middle East . These young
terrorists will be most dangerous because they will know our language and
will fully understand the habits of Americans; but that we Americans won't
know/understand a thing about them.
Aviv says that, as a people, Americans are unaware and uneducated about the
terrorist threats we will, inevitably, face. America still has only have a
handful of Arabic and Farsi speaking people in our intelligence networks,
and Aviv says it is critical that we change that fact SOON.
So, what can America do to protect itself? From an intelligence perspective,
Aviv says the U.S. needs to stop relying on satellites and technology for
intelligence. We need to, instead, follow Israel 's, Ireland 's, and England 's
hands-on examples of human intelligence, both from an infiltration
perspective as well as to trust "aware" citizens to help. We need to engage
and educate ourselves as citizens; however, our U. S. government continues
to treat us, its citizens, "like babies".
Our government thinks we "can't handle the truth" and are concerned that
we'll panic if we understand the realities of terrorism. Aviv says this is a
deadly mistake.
Aviv recently created/executed a security test for our Congress, by placing
an empty briefcase in five well-traveled spots in five major cities. The
results? Not one person called 911 or sought a policeman to check it out. In
fact, in Chicago , someone tried to steal the briefcase!
In comparison, Aviv says that citizens of Israel are so well "trained"
that an unattended bag or package would be reported in seconds by citizen(s)
who know to publicly shout, "Unattended Bag!" The area would be quickly and
calmly cleared by the citizens themselves. But, unfortunately, America
hasn't been yet "hurt enough" by terrorism for their government to fully
understand the need to educate its citizens or for the government to
understand that it's their citizens who are, inevitably, the best first-line
of defence against terrorism.
Aviv also was concerned about the high number of children here in America
who were in preschool and kindergarten after 9/11, who were "lost" without
parents being able to pick them up, and about our schools that had no plan
in place to best care for the students until parents could get there. (In
New York City, this was days, in some cases!)
He stresses the importance of having a plan, that's agreed upon within your
family, to respond to in the event of a terrorist emergency. He urges
parents to contact their children's schools and demand that the schools,
too, develop plans of actions, as they do in Israel .
Does your family know what to do if you can't contact one another by phone?
Where would you gather in an emergency? He says we should all have a plan
that is easy enough for even our youngest children to remember and follow.
Aviv says that the U. S. government has in force a plan that, in the event
of another terrorist attack, will immediately cut-off EVERYONE's ability to
use cell phones, blackberries, etc., as this is the preferred communication
source used by terrorists and is often the way that their bombs are
detonated.
How will you communicate with your loved ones in the event you cannot speak?
You need to have a plan.
Note:
If you believe what you have just read, then you must feel compelled to send
to every concerned parent or guardian, grandparents, uncles, aunts, whatever
and whomever. Nothing will happen if you choose not to do so, but in the
event it does happen, this particular email will haunt you...."I should have
sent this to.....", but I didn't believe it and just deleted it as so much
trash from old Bill Jones!!!
AN ABSOLUTE MUST READ FOR EVERY AMERICAN & CANADIAN!
