Police Investigate New York Subway Terror Threat
Oct. 6, 2005 — The New York City Police Department is investigating
what it deems a credible tip that 19 operatives have been deployed to
New York to place bombs in the subway, and security in the subways
will be increased, sources told ABC News.
While the police department is taking the threat seriously, it is also
urging the public not to be alarmed because – while the source is
credible – the information has not been verified.
According to sources in intelligence, emergency services and police
headquarters, when three Iraqi insurgents were recently arrested
during a raid by a joint FBI-CIA team, one of those caught disclosed
the threat. Because it slipped out during the arrest, the plot was
deemed credible.
After several days of work, sources said, the NYPD is increasingly
concerned because it has been unable to discredit the initial source
and additional information from the source.
The 19 operatives were to place improvised explosive devices in the
subways using briefcases, according to two sources.

"NYC Increases Subway Security After Safety Threats"
Thursday, October 06, 2005
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "NEW YORK — Authorities were increasing mass transit security after word of a credible threat of a bombing on the city's subway system, a law enforcement official said Thursday.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity in advance of an official announcement, said the threat is "specific to place, time and method."
"Obviously, this is a significant threat," said Rep. Peter King (search), R-N.Y., chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee (search)."
Sacajaweau, I could not leave your post on the N.Y. thread, so have posted it on the T.M., a very interesting play on the numbers, maybe the best that I have seen and more than likely very accurate, thank you for posting it.

Since I believe that these terrorists have a simple number code, my
best guess would be 10th month, 11th day, 9 AM. (Hmmm, all the
same numbers in 9-11-01.)
Remember that all the aliases of these terrorists is normally a
manipulation of the letters in the name.
9-11 and the mailing dates on the anthrax letters were all on a
Tuesday and the 11th is a Tuesday.
