ISIS plotting ‘imminent’ attacks on subways in US, Paris: Iraq’s PM
NY Post ^ | September 25, 2014 | 11:34am

Islamic State terrorists are plotting an attack on US and Paris subway systems, Iraq’s prime minister warned Thursday morning at the United Nations.

Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said he was told of the plot by his intelligence in Baghdad, and that it was from foreign ISIS fighters in Iraq, according to the Associated Press.

“I’m receiving accurate reports from Baghdad that there were arrests of a few elements and there were networks from inside Iraq to have attacks … on metros of Paris and US,” he said.

He said the attacks had not been thwarted yet, and he had alerted the United States. Al-Abadi made the claim at a meeting with reporters at a gathering of world leaders at the General Assembly.

The prime minister said that their intelligence division has captured several ISIS fighters, who revealed during interviews that French and Americans had been recruited by ISIS and are plotting hits on metro systems in Paris and the United States.

The MTA has increased uniformed cops by 30 to 50 percent at high-volume stations, is increasing random bag checks and is closely watching high-profile locations on security video.

Back in 1995 I was on the Paris Metro one late night waiting for a train with my friends and someone let off a big can of mace. There were a couple of flics (Gendarmerie) who were the first to run away up the escalators! Bastiges! We stayed behind to help an old lady out. We all were hacking and coughing the rest of the night.

So?

Not to sound callous, but most cities in the US that have subway systems are liberal bastions who would rather be politically correct than safe.

I’m tired of being called by a racist by these cosmopolitan jerks when I try to warn them.

So they can take their terrorism and like it I guess.

“Obama’s legacy. What passive foreign policy get you every time. 50+ percent of Americans are ignorant of history or think somehow THEY are just smarter than those in the past.

So depressing.”

It IS depressing, because his FP is “destructive”, not ‘passive’, imo. And that %?...it doesn’t seem to reflect the REAL math. It never does in these cases.

If they are smart they will blow up one of their own mosques so they can play the rasist card for sympathy votes

Imagine a 7/7/11 attack on the NYC metro system ... horrific if they choose the right nodes

Time to go play more golf. The only way to pull Zero off is if a reporter gets killed.
