***My sources and confidants are almost "NEVER" wrong. I have been told to instruct my family and friends to keep away from NYC (10/7 - 10/14). An attempt WILL be made. However, we are making every attempt humanly possible to stop them. There was a reason why POTUS appeared so grim and tired this morning. He knows what could be coming. Stay alert and vigilant.***
Thanks for that.

Government officials said that in the last couple of days, a C.I.A.-F.B.I. operation in Iraq had taken two people there into custody in an effort to disrupt the plot. The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because details are classified, said the plot appeared to involve a dozen or so people in an effort to plant explosives in the subway system around the middle of this month.
At the news conference, officials would only allude to an overseas operation and declined to provide details about detentions, saying only that they had taken place outside New York.
"Classified operations have partially disrupted this threat," Mark Mershon, assistant director of the Federal Bureau of Investigations' New York office, said at the news conference. "The F.B.I. and other U.S. personnel continue to work around the clock. Nothing that has surfaced in that investigation has corroborated an actual threat to the city."
Mr. Mershon said the threat could be "resolved in the coming days," but he did not explain what he meant.
The city has known about the threat for several days, the mayor said, but decided that making it public too soon "could have jeopardized the lives" of some investigators.
#1218 - GRIM news BE, but thanks for that information.
Thanks for the kind words over on the other thread RR. Yep, seems my instints were right. I hate it when that happens. {half hearted attempt at laughter}
WATCH FOR MISDIRECTION!
Was on my way home tonight when I saw a red jeep w/ black top parked up underneigth a bridge. He wasn't just pulled off onto the shoulder, he had driven the jeep all the way up to the top of the concrete slab where the supporting steel beams rest on the concrete foundation. Saw the driver walking back to the jeep; get in and start to pull away as I passed by. I slowed down a bit thinking that was strange. A short time later I saw him pass by (I was in the slow lane; he was in the fast lane). I got behind him, got the tag #, and called it in to the state police as suspicious activity.
May have been nothing, but they guy had no business being where he was. And why was he walking away from that spot? Did he plant something there? These were the questions going thru my brain and that’s why I called it in.
If it doesn't look right, it might not be. REPORT IT!
Only NYC?
Thanks for that tip, Enforcer. My daughter was planning to go to NYC on the 14th. I'll tell her to wait a few days.
