MSNBC Editor-High Level Terrorism Official Moves Family Out of New York City

MSNBC ^ | Nov. 18 2002 | Jerry Nachman

[ewing]

I was flipping channels and saw a rerun of 'Nachman' on MSNBC where he let it slip that this guy had moved his family out of NYC.

Did anyone see this or post on it this weekend?

[ewing]

And is this connected to Ramadan perhaps..

[per loin]

Who? And to where?

[mewzilla]

If true, while understandable, this is really going to play well. NOT.

[ewing]

He didn't give any details, just that it had happened.

[js1138]

Nachman is obsessed with the current undefined threats. He may be wise, but he doesn't know anything in particular. My son has mover from 34th street to 207th. Who knows?

Of course the U.N. is in midtown. Any really large act will rid us of these meddlesome priests.

[ewing]

Dubya hates leaks I feel sorry for whoever this is..

[mewzilla]

Let me take that back. If this guy and/or his family might be a specific target, then he should get them out of Dodge. But if it's because of a general threat, or if they've got more info that they don't choose to give the public, then this really sends a bad message.

[ewing]

Is 207th street safer than mid-town?

I have family there too and have been trying to tell them to move.

Didn't the Queens plane crash happen at this time last year..

Heck, I wouldn't need terrorism as an excuse to move out
of NYC. Maybe he just got tired of the taxes, the noise,
traffic, and, especially, Mayor Bloomberg.

Can't find the article at the link. Can get a good quote on life insurance from the pop up though

[ewing]

Maybe the Islamokazis are targeting individual members of the Terrorism Response team.. but would they know where he lives/commutes to work?

[freeper12]

moving out of nyc is probably a wise decision no matter what the motivation....couldn't pay me enough to live there...

[mhking]

More drivel from Jabba the Nachman...

[js1138]

Who knows what safe is? The assumption is that terrorists would attack Wall Street, which at the South tip of manhattan -- a few blocks southeast of WTC.

[ewing]

The transcripts for the weekend show would have the story.

Friday's isnt up yet http://www.msnbc.com/news/MSNBCTRANSCRIPTSMAIN_Front.asp?Oct=-33b

[ewing]

LOL! Jabba knows quite a few folks though..

[Blood of Tyrants]

He may be a liberal, but apparently he is not a suicidal liberal.

[ewing]

Any move to a huge city is probably a risk now, I agree.

[ewing]

This same kind of thing happened during the Dirty Bomb threat last year.

People in power calling others to warn them..

I continue to suspect the D.C. snipers may have targeted Linda Franklin, whom they shot dead at the Home Depot In Falls Church. According to reports, she "studied terror threats" at the FBI's National Infrastructure Protection Center. It was that center that issued the FBI's terror warning last week.
