I'm out of Philly and I take the Philly transit to Trenton and NJ Transit to Newark....where I take the PATH into downtown Manhattan. That's some scary shit. But that many bombers in one car? Why??? The effect would be ten times worse if they detonated 10 bombs in 10 places rather than just one...why waste taht many on a single target?

Officials say the suspects communicated freely, thinking that no one could track them.

I'm going to reserve my comments until I learn how Cindy Sheehan wants me to handle this information.

[Fudd Fan]

I think this is a feint. They will strike somewhere else.

I think you could be on to something.

Islamic fascist suicide bombers returned to the WTC after failing to bring it down in 1993. On 9/11 they failed to get the White House and/or Congress. That does not bode well for future attacks but it does provide a decent clue.

None of this would be happening if Al Gore would have won...

Of course it wouldn't. No Americans would be left on the planet by now.

[Fudd Fan]

Keith Overbite is a very sick individual.

[Fudd Fan]

Maybe these particular plotters are evil and stupid.

[festus]

Since 'they' all want to become martyrs so badly , what is wrong with killing them all ?

Ya got me. They wanna die we wanna kill em. Thats called a win win.

[festus]

You forgot to add "....they are all named Mohammed.

It probably would have been an attack on both PATH tunnels at once.

Different Path train cars all synced up.

What creeps me out is how normal the mastermind for this plot looks. If this guy boarded a PATH train I dont know if anyone would raise an eyebrow.

This is a photo released by the Hammoud family of Lebanese suspect Assem Hammoud seen in this undated picture, center, with his friends in Canada. Assem Hammoud, the detained al-Qaida operative, has confessed to plotting to attack New York City tunnels later this year and says he was acting on Osama bin Laden's orders, Lebanese officials say

Yes, it's a dumb headline. Makes it sound like they are going to all slit their wrists or OD.

Well said! No jihadists, no jihad!

I hope you guys don't drive automobiles. Approximately 50,000 deaths occur a year.

I'm just saying, to each his own. For me, NYC is a fun place to be. I don't live there, but I visit as much as possible. And I ride the PATH and subway every time. I think that when our time is up, it's up, whether you live in the "sticks" or in a big city. Those $#@%* terrorists won't keep me away.

The headline makes you go hmmmmmmm. How about

Plotters Plan Mass Suicide Murder on Train on 9/11/06

BTW, I sympathize with the worry and anxiety of all who live in our cities in the troublesome times. May God bless and assist our leaders and guardians.

[don-o]

You said it better than I did down the thread

[jan in Colorado]

Officials say none of the plotters was in the United States but that several of them were nearby in Canada. Others had planned to travel to New York from Saudi Arabia.

Can we STOP letting them in? Sheesh...

[upchuck]

It makes me glad I live in the sticks.

Amen Brother and BUMP to the sticks :)

Those are city slickers and we just make em look like accidents. ;~)

{hand picked biased opinionators}.. are questioning whether the government is forgetting an element central to any case: the actual intent to commit a crime.

I dunno, actually planning of and 1st perp testimony of intent might actually constitute intent.

[TeleStraightShooter]

IMO the best descriptive is the same one used in domestic life taking: Murder-Suicide
