NYPD was heavily involved in bringing that down. Not sure who, but our side nontheless, had cameras inside the lab showing the terrorists mixing chemicals in 55gal drums.

I found this. I hope it helps it's NY Times (I know...) but since it was 1997, it prob fair "New York City police, acting on tip, burst into Park Slope apartment and discover components of bomb that apparently was to be used in terrorist attacks on subway and bus; two men with Jordanian passports are arrested; police open fire and wound two after one appears to make move to detonate bomb; police recover nine-inch pipe packed with gunpowder and nails, but lack of timer or remote-control suggests suicide attack was planned; blocks are evacuated, subway service is halted and traffic is tied up for hours in Brooklyn; photos; map; plot was revealed when one of apartment's occupants waved down police officer to confess; Mayor Rudolph Giuliani says one of suspects expressed support for latest suicide bombing in Jerusalem, which killed 13 people; police and FBI say suspects appear to have targeted 'US and Jewish interests worldwide'; one suspect, Gazi Ibrahim Abu Mezer, 23, had applied for US asylum and listed arrest in Israel as suspected terrorist; 22-year-old Lafi Khalil's address book contained name of 'member of known terrorist group'; two have been in US for six months and identified themselves as Palestinians; Mezer, in hospital, gives authorities instructions on deactivating bombs; third man in apartment, Abdul Rahman Mosabah, 31-year-old Egyptian who entered US two weeks ago, is being questioned; likely bomb target was busy Atlantic Avenue subway..."
