NEW YORK -- According to NewsChannel4's Jonathan Dienst, sources said federal investigators have made arrests in an alleged terror plot on Kennedy Airport.
Law enforcement officials said the plot may involved a former airport worker.
A press conference is scheduled for 1 p.m. this afternoon.
Its an 80 year old Amish Quaker woman with a water bottle. Those are the worst kind.
Probably legally like Tim McVeigh, or Muhammed Atta, the original WTC bombers, or that lily white CITIZEN Andrew Speaker with TB terrorizing the skies, or the ex-military DC Sniper, or the Cho sunhui kid at VaTech....or any number of totally LEGAL ways to get into this country.
If you're a petty criminal, you do stupid things like rob convenience stores--maximum risk, minimal payoff.
If you're a diabolical terrorist, capable of detonating suitcase nukes or destroying the WTC, you DO NOT risk being an undocumented flake. You merely get a legal tourist visa, fly into the country on American Airlines and check your suitcase nuke.
Let's spend all our money on a border fence and ignore the fact that super-badguys will always get in, and are already here legally anyway.
And don’t forget the part where he’ll blame it all on not enough gun regulation.
I went through JFK on Monday. I reported that a laptop was unattended to two TSA “officials” who told me that it was nothing. I then reported it to another “official” who took it a bit more seriously, and eventually someone claimed it.The unattended laptop remained on the table with no one confiscating it.My complaint was handled very unprofessionally.Are these jobs now given to people who can’t be clerks at Whole Foods?I did not feel safe,especially after seeing who has these jobs.

Great post!!!!!!!!
“Oh no! Not another buggy bomb!”
BBIED
“my money’s on the silver haired ladies in wheelchairs”
I knew those scooter stores were a cult society...
I wonder how many illegal immigrants were involved.
(I presume they still will get their Z-visas)
And many have been elected to congress.
Now slightly updated:

Uh huh.
The illegal ones, you mean, the root of all evil in the world today. Nothing else matters.
Formerly on a work visa by any chance?
This is not true, it must be “insurgents” as there are no terrorists.
Your tinfoil hat is not tight enough. If you insist upon using the "conspiracy" theory route, at least make it a good one.
The plot was not twarted, a plane blew up,hundreds of people dead & wounded, and Bush knew about it & let it happen!
Now, that would have been a distraction! sheesh
MSNBC seems to have pretty good coverage right now
Just heard, the airport worker was an immigrant from Ghana, he was under surveillance and arrested last night.
