AP 'We Did It' letters eyed in NY bombing
By MATT APUZZO, Associated Press Writer 16 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - Capitol Hill offices received letters Thursday containing a photo of the Times Square military recruiting office before it was bombed and including the claim "We Did It." ADVERTISEMENT
The manila envelopes contained a photo of a man standing in front of the recruiting station before it was bombed. The photo was the kind commonly sent as a holiday greeting card, according to a Democratic aide who spoke on condition of anonymity because the matter is under investigation.
The message on the card: "Happy New Year, We Did It."
The envelope also contained a packet of approximately 10 sheets of paper that seemed to be a political manifesto railing against the Iraq war and a booklet. The aide didn't know what the booklet was. A second aide, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, said similar letters arrived in as many as 10 offices.
Capitol Police, FBI and U.S. Postal Inspection Service were investigating. In an e-mail to lawmakers, Capitol Police said the envelopes went through the standard security process. That process, which involves radiating incoming mail, can easily take a week or more, making it likely the letters were mailed well ahead of the bombing.
The small bomb caused minor damage to the New York military recruiting station before dawn Thursday and police were searching for a hooded bicyclist seen on a surveillance video pedaling away.
Each envelope was stamped with two $1 stamps and contained a white label with a return address, which the police did not identify in the e-mail. Police said the letters were safe and did not contain threats to lawmakers.
The man in the photo was thin, white with graying hair, wearing a striped flannel shirt and jeans, the Democratic aide said. A law enforcement official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the case is ongoing, confirmed some of the contents of the letters as described by the aide.
The Associated Press obtained a copy of an e-mail sent from the office of Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., to other lawmakers Thursday that reads:
"A few offices on the House side have received a letter today addressed to 'Members of Congress' with a picture of a man standing in front of the Times Square recruiting station that was bombed in New York today with the statement 'We did it.' He is standing in front of it with his arms spread out and he's attached his political manifesto."
The blast left a gaping hole in the front window and shattered a glass door, twisting and blackening its metal frame. No one was hurt, but Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said the device, though unsophisticated, could have caused "injury and even death."

What an awesome movie. Also showed how dangerous the wacko left is. People-hating weirdos.
And people in the MSM call conservatives "hateful". If they ignore this kind of stuff while decrying conservatives, they are putting themselves in the category of fellow-travelers with the terrorists.
The asssssholes at indymedia think the police are monitoring them and are putting up links to Dunkin Donuts.
But, and I know they’re monitoring this - all the police I’ve ever known shop at WHOLE FOODS.
Yep. WHOLE FOODS. Where the anarchists shop. Anarchists are going on old stereotypes. That makes sense since they’re all 50+ years of age now.
The left is just filled with old old old people.

Ahh, the pacifist anti war fools are at it again, blowing up and shooting and destroying everything as their temper tantrums get worse and worse.
Wow! I didn't know that!
We want to know the link between dems and the antiwar insurgents too...

Not one person was harmed.
Only property.
Kudos on a perfect action!
Bingo and a Bump at ya I never understood what the difference was supposed to be if you hide like a coward and run away after the deed without making it clear who you are or why you did it to me thats a terrorist !
Elf
Weather Underground
Peta
And many more
As far as i am concerned these are all terrorist organizations with the only difference being they have a bully pulpit the Laimstream media and willing acomplices the blind sheeple that follow with their feelings instead of their brains !
Okay, thanks. But it's not out of the realm for a Democrat aide to do. You never knnow about those America haters.
On February 15th 2008, the leftist terrorist group called The Student Democrat Society(SDS) took it upon themselves to attack the Armed Forces Recruiting Station at 13th and L Streets N.W. at 18:00(6 p.m.).
The violent leftists terrorists entered the recruiting station and proceed to trash the place of their own free accord as DC Police simply stoodby and did nothing about it. The terrorists took joy in reporting and recording their terrorist actions
(http://dc.indymedia.org/newswire/display/142455/index.php)
. This is the second time that DC Police have stoodby as the terrorists who call themselves the SDS have runamuck in the city, this past summer they tore thru the Georgetown Area of the city hurling bricks at innocent bystanders as the police seemed powerless to stop them.
The SDS has a history of violent actions against men and women in uniform and those citizens who speak out against them and are only enbittered because the surge has worked and victory for American is close at hand. SDS and their allies are nothing more than homegrown terrorists and failed socialists who are the bottom of society!
Here is what I read: "Unlike the bombs dropped by the US armed forces on various brown people around the world, no one was hurt."
I would bet money the folks who did this were Osama/Obama supporters. I'd look for a lot more of this sort of thing if her Thyness somehow uses the "super delegates" to steal the nomination from Osama/Obama.....
