FBI Adds 10 Names to List in Boston Threat

By CURT ANDERSON, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - The FBI (news - web sites) on Thursday added the names of 10 Chinese to the list of those being sought for questioning about a possible terror plot targeting Boston.
Two law enforcement officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the ongoing investigation, said the names were part of the same anonymous tip that led authorities on Wednesday to announce that they are seeking to question four other Chinese and two Iraqis.
The officials said the tip remains uncorroborated and there is no credible evidence that such a plot exists.
It was unclear why all the names were not announced at the same time. The officials said there was no new information that led to the addition of the 10 names.
A third federal law enforcement official in Washington, also speaking on condition of anonymity, said the tip was received Wednesday by the California Highway Patrol. The tipster claimed the four Chinese — two men and two women — entered the United States from Mexico and were awaiting a shipment of "nuclear oxide" that would follow them to Boston.
The official said the nuclear oxide could be a reference to material used to make a "dirty bomb" that would spew radiation over a wide area.

Interesting... The story we're running on National Terror Alert, is based in San Diego, where the leads were generated and refers to the original 4 as "Chinese chemists".
Starting to seem like there may be more to this story, than what the press is picking up.
Be On the Lookout For.
The only dumb questions are the ones people don't ask.
I expect the next attack to be carried out by non-Muslim looking people. Even with all our talk about not profiling and political correctness they know they are being watch by every citizen.
Chechen’s, Hispanics, Asians or stupid gringo leftists like Johnny Jihad can infiltrate with little chance of detection.
All of us must be ever watchful and vigilant.
Green cards too?
......goal....container ships,.....ports,.....railroad yards?
...............? Boston?
This is a vast land of deserts and mountains in the northwest region of the People's Republic of China - a region called the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Though this region is primarily desert, the land is highly valued by the Chinese government. Besides the human resources, there are large deposits of oil (with the oil industry centered in the city of Korla), uranium and minerals. Xinjiang serves as a nuclear testing ground (with radioactive contamination reported in several Uyghur towns) and satellite launching pad. The major cities include Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang Province and the world's most landlocked city; Turpan, an important oasis between the Taklamakan and Gobi deserts; and Kashgar (also called Kashi), an ancient city once visited by Marco Polo and part of the silk road. There are a number of interesting websites including:
I was about to post that also, file photo's.Plus the media is giving this a lot of coverage, getting the pics out to public.Chinese muslims?? I would rather believe hired terrorist.
"September 14, 2004, Capitol Hill, Washington
Fifty years ago (August 27, 1949), a plane carrying the leaders of the Republic of East Turkistan crashed under mysterious circumstances. When the news reached Beijing, Mao Zedong sent in the Communist military, and the occupation of East Turkistan began.
Communist China's lack of respect for the people of my country has been equaled by its disregard for the very land of Eastern Turkistan. We have become a dumping ground for China's environmental waste. Lop Nor, a region known well by your government, is far more than a research center; it has become a profoundly toxic site of nuclear waste. We will never know how many lives have been prematurely ended by nuclear radiation, how many cancers have been spawned, how many children have been born with deformities. The count of my own people is that there have been half million deaths from radiation alone.
Especially if that's all they're wearing.
Isn't that a weapon you throw and it wraps around the prey?
There are Chinese Al Qaeda members....they fought against the Pakistanis last year in and around Wana Pakistan.
The best possibility of catching them is when they get their driver's licenses and register to vote.

Pray for everyone's safety in and around Boston.
Sounds like Uranium Oxide or Plutonium Oxide.
Zheng's looks like a photo from a passort.
The others are pasted on gray stock - maybe a visa application??
Fox says it is 10 chinese and 2 iraqis.
......bingo
"Photos of Chinese passports? Mexican visa applications? Migrant cards issued to Chinese? Hmm..."
Probably the photos that the coyote took when he made up the phoney work ID's that he didn't get paid for ...
What is a BOLO?
You both have freepmail.
AQ yes, I understand that but not all AQ is muslim. Chinese antarchist, mercenaries looking to make a buck. There is no doubt there are Americans with no affiliation to islam or AQ that would jump at the chance to attack their own country for money. Mcveigh and Nichols comes to mind and they didn't even do it for money. In a year or so we can expect another disgruntled soldier or marine that will plot against his country.
