The US military was put on it's highest state of alert, this morning,
shortly after this started. A prudent move.

I expect not. Whoever did this has made a LOT of very dangerous enemies.

Personally, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. Somebody just expended
a lot of resources to paralyze a lot of the world's decision making
infrastructure - I'm more than a little worried that somebody is about to
make a major military move while everyone's attention is on NY and DC.

Has anybody been hearing news from out of the US about increased military
alerts and such?
