Other mistake: The T.V. begins to work and you see a Chinese man with a map of the United States behind him. The cities that were destroyed were bulls-eyed on the map. Wichita was not bulls-eyed on the map, but Emily seconds later is crying in a car saying that her fiancee is dead because Wichita had been hit and she "saw it on the map."
Continuity mistake: When Eric and Jake hug right after Johnston dies, first Jake's hands are on Eric's face then on his shoulders and then on his face again switching places after the camera angle breaks.
Trivia: When Mimi comes to the Richmond farm and Stanley refers to her as "Uncle Sam," what Bonnie signs to him is "Uncle Sam is prettier."

Answer: According to Wikipedia: "It was a cross-section of 'domestic militia, anarchists, and religious fanatics' – terrorist groups that would never ordinarily collaborate, ideologically or politically. The only thing that connected them was the desire to take down the federal government of the United States. The entire plan was orchestrated by someone with deep resources, an ability to coordinate diverse groups, and by all indications, an American. After someone (believed to be Thomas Valente) tipped off the terrorists about the government's knowledge of the plot, they moved up the timetable for the attacks."
