Retailers Asked To Report Missing or Stolen Fertilizer

The Illinois Fertilizer and Chemical Association has been advised to keep their eyes open for anything suspicious, or out of the ordinary related to missing or stolen fertilizer.
The FBI informed the IFAC that several lawn and garden facilities, as well as agriculture retail facilities in the Midwest have experienced the theft of ammonium nitrate fertilizers.
No thefts have been reported yet in Illinois.
If you have any information, or you are a retailer that has experienced theft of fertilizer, please contact the FBI regardless of how large or small the theft may have been.

I wonder why the focus is only on unaccounted for (missing or stolen) fertilizer? Does the FBI believe that well organized terror groups would want to blow their cover by risking criminally acquired materials? I would think the FBI should increase its scope to include individuals purchasing large quantities of fertilizer who don’t fit the profile of a farmer.
The FBI should also be looking at some of the more less obvious sources for ammonium nitrate. Right now, products that are legal, and in common use, that contain high amounts of ammonium nitrate are being delivered all over the country.
Law enforcement should be able to use common sense and logic, instead of bureaucratic directives and orders developed by politicians that do not have a clue.
Chicago must be on high alert even if it is not stated publicly as it is in the Midwest and would be just the place for osama to welcome the new president. We must all be on the look out for strange things. O hare would be a major problem is attacked. We need to pray that some person will discover the plot in time.
