Papers Portray Plot as More Talk Than Action
************************************EXCERPT*********************************
By MICHAEL POWELL and WILLIAM K. RASHBAUM
The plot as painted by law enforcement officials was cataclysmic: A home-grown Islamic terrorist had in mind detonating fuel storage tanks and pipelines and setting fire to Kennedy International Airport, not to mention a substantial swath of Queens.
Had the plot been carried out, it could have resulted in unfathomable damage, deaths and destruction, Roslynn R. Mauskopf, the United States attorney in Brooklyn, said in a news release that announced charges against four men. She added at a news conference, The devastation that would be caused had this plot succeeded are just unthinkable.
Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly then stepped to the lectern with a vision only a bit less grim.
Once again, would-be terrorists have put New York City in their crosshairs, he said. Mr. Kelly said a disaster had been averted.
But the criminal complaint filed by the federal authorities against the four defendants in the case one of them, Abdel Nur, remained at large yesterday suggests a less than mature terror plan, a proposed effort longer on evil intent than on operational capability. (Ms. Mauskopf noted in her news release that the public was never at risk and told reporters that law enforcement had stopped this plot long before it ever had a chance to be carried out.)

Thanks...great tip, although now I must disinfect my computer.
Also, it seems only to go back to 1/20/2002. But that is still good.
These people SUCK.
I am sick and tired of Liberals and the NYT. If Ashcroft and his team had uncovered the 9/11 plot and thwarted it prior to its execution, they would have lambasted the administration for scaremongering and violating the rights of the terrorists.
This makes me want to puke.

There it is, I found it! If you read the violin story closely, it's buried in there! It's written in some code, like the language the Navajo spoke in the movie "Windtalkers."
GEEZ.......
Stupid is as stupid does.
AM Bump!
... More Talk Than Action
Nothing to worry about. As if a small group of Mooslims could harm New York City. Jeez.

“Papers Portray Plot as More Talk Than Action “
Double meaning there. That’s how the NY TImes PAPERs portray the plot.
