On page 11 This post is very interesting: The man you saw had a black eye and a torn shirt, meaning he had already been in at least one altercation.

You would be correct..

The question is with whom and why..

What if he was attacked by a group paid to set off a bomb within DFW just as THE VERY FIRST TROOPS were to arrive back on US soil? What if this man actually averted such a catastrophe? What if he had to fight his way there? What if he barely escaped to arrive just in time as the troops were about to land? What if the plan was to blow up this bomb and cause mass fury towards a fictional group led by a fictional leader inside a country wanted because it had a stargate within that those in power desired? What if these in power knew that such an event relatively soon after 9/11 would cause such an outcry from the people to "go get those bastards" that the people would sit back and never know that martial law was right around the corner in disguise as 'protection'?

What if mystery man is a.... hero.
