"A terrorist, massive, casualty-producing event [will occur] somewhere……" — Tommy Franks
"A terrorist, massive, casualty-producing event [will occur] somewhere in the Western world - it may be in the United States of America - that causes our population to question our own Constitution and to begin to militarize our country in order to avoid a repeat of another mass, casualty-producing event."
