Exclusive: The Dept. of Homeland Security Uncovered a Plot to Attack Hotels and Restaurants Over a Single Weekend
In this exclusive story, CBS News chief investigative correspondent Armen Keteyian reports the latest terror attack to America involves the possible use of poisons - simultaneous attacks targeting hotels and restaurants at many locations over a single weekend.
A key Intelligence source has confirmed the threat as "credible." Department of Homeland Security officials, along with members of the Department of Agriculture and the FDA, have briefed a small group of corporate security officers from the hotel and restaurant industries about it.

I have a confidential memo that mecca is about to be bombed out of existence. This will solve all our problems.
Just in time for passing the food safety act.
There’s a bright side to every difficult situation. Poisoned food can be a vital component in Mrs. Obama’s War on Obesity.
How odd that this story ‘surfaces’ just as S510 has just risen from the dead yet again....
Just sayin’......
Poisoned cheese? Is the TSA going to pat you down for food now?
Alert ping
ricin
cyanide
salad bars
buffets
hotels
al qaeda

Is that you, Julian? ;-)
Hope they don’t go after the cheese, Velveeta.
Oh, you’re right. I hadn’t thought of that.
If we took the bones out it wouldn’t be crunchy would it?
Why don’t they just tell us which weekend and we’ll all stay home?
What a perfect period of time for this even to be a ‘psy ops.’ Holiday gatherings; baked goods passed around; foodie days at work.
And ‘Big Sis’ (who sees no troubles at the southern border, will protect us all.
Quite true. It’d be hard to gain weight when you’re dead.

Forgive the slightest cynicism in light of last night's coincidental surprise Food Safey Modernization Act passage ... if this is indeed a legitimate threat, a heads up is definitely in order.

Thanks, Vel. That is something I’ve worried about for quite a long time. It could be so easy to do.

Al Qaeda is keen on trying to create a spectacular “hit” before the year end. Avoiding salad bars and buffets between now and the New Year begins to narrow down the timeframe - for 2010 anyway.
You’re safe with Velveeta.
It would be very easy to do.
The first thing that comes to mind is Vegas.
