The arrests could be in New York City, possibly within days but certainly within two weeks, sources say.

Is this information helpful to either law enforcement or the public?

NO!

Maybe President Bush should review the British policy called the "D notice," which prohibits the media from releasing information that is detrimental to ongoing investigations that impact national security. Our free press is endangering our freedom for the sake of a scoop.

Why blame the press? They are only printing what they've been fed by the Fed. Certainly the Fed has some purpose in releasing this information.

President Bush is not the Queen.

Get real, then again, maybe you would like to live in a police state. Is you life in danger?.

Tank, my man, relax. This is a LEAK BY THE FBI--not meant to be kept quiet. At this point, they want the bad boys to read the story, realize that they are in deep doo-doo, and make a few desperate 'last contacts'---which will be the important ones. Further, the FBI (et al) will now watch where they go, whom they visit, and their financial transactions as they prepare to get out of Dodge.

All part of the plan, tanker...
