Actually, check me out, I believe that the Muslim holy season of Ramadan began on 4 Oct and coincides with the beginning of Rosh Hashona (sp?), the Jewish New Years. Double threat, and yes, there were threats from terrorists groups promising action during this time frame.

Not to mention that that the festivities this year began with a rare annular
solar eclipse occurring over much of N. Africa and the Middle East,
signalling a "blessed season" to many of the moon-god fanatics.
