Just wait....the MSM will have all the lefties saying this news about a terrorist threat was karl Rove's idea to go with the President's speech on terrorism today!
The slimes will definitely go there! I was the first to call this one! Dibs.

Threat is overstated - homeland security officials say.
Not a credible source - MSNBC.
Attack was not for today but for next week - MSNBC

Hey there nic.
The operation has been disrupted, but there is no corroboration that there is a threat. Now that's a warm fuzzy statement. Cognitive dissonance.

Naw, more than likely the Quakers again. Something really is going to have to be done about them. I hear ya. They're always operating under the radar.

Go to the DUmpster....it started before the press conference. These guys are definitely predictable!

I take "credible threat and threat specific" to mean that they have a pretty good idea WHO ALL to look for, but NYC is so dang HUGE.

The NYPD-especially special units like the Hercules team-is one of the best possible deterrents to terrorism that we have on a municipal level.
However, there's only so much a 40,000 strong police force can do to to thwart these scenarios from unfolding.
In 1997 an Islamic terror cell in my borough was planning on blowing up the Union St. subway station.
The only thing that prevented them from doing so is that one of the original participants got cold feet, and ratted out his accomplices.
Sometimes the only thing you have to rely upon is luck.

"When did you start hearing the PSA's? I only started hearing them in the last 48 hours and I'm a talkshow radio junkie."
As any poor soul without cable TV, like myself, can attest to they are all over prime time tv. The local news girl comes on and says "make a plan" or "look out for suspicious packages on the metro etc. Of course that's followed by a "be accepting to gays" PSA

NYC MAYOR said that they really couldn't say if this THREAT was from a SPECIFIC ethnic group.
heh I wonder who made the threat? Disgruntled NYC City Employees? Hmmmmmm I can't imagine who could do something like this????
heh /sarcasm
To: glock rocks
cognitive dissonance in full effect.
And I heard it was PARTIALLY disrupted. But there's no threat....Bloomberg's taking the subways and trains. : )
To: TomGuy
We can't make heads nor tails what they are saying (referring to the NYC officials). So what else is new?
To: oceanview
The Feds had the threat information for a few days already... Did you notice an increase in noticeable security or in a way that you didn't see but suspected before today?
This threat will keep the subways light for awhile.
