This is the first I’m hearing of this, i think, but according to Inside the Bay Area News<\/a>, last April, snipers attacked a power substation in San Jose, CA;<\/p>\n

While the FBI says there is no evidence that terrorists were involved, Jon Wellinghoff, former chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, said the attack was “very well planned and well executed by very highly trained individuals,” a conclusion shared by a former top PG&E official. Wellinghoff added that “a coordinated attack could put this country in a world of hurt for a long time.”<\/p>\n

Based on his review of the evidence and a tour of the Metcalf plant with some military experts, he said the assault was “the most significant incident of domestic terrorism involving the grid that has occurred” in North America.<\/p>\n

But the FBI, which is the primary agency looking into the incident — doesn’t share his conviction.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“This wasn’t an incident where Billy-Bob and Joe decided, after a few brewskies, to come in and shoot up a substation,” he was quoted as saying. “This was an event that was well thought out, well planned and they targeted certain components.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The article says that there were hundreds of shell casings unmarred by fingerprints and piles of rocks near the firing points which were apparently used as aiming stakes for the snipers. It also says that no one lost power during the early morning attack, now was anyone injured. But, at least the FBI doesn’t think it’s terror, like so many other incidents that they don’t think is terror, you know, like the Fort Hood workplace violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
