An Air France plane was being escorted to JFK airport in New York City this morning after an anonymous threat was made against the flight, a senior U.S. official told ABC News.
The Maryland State Police Fusion Center received an anonymous call of a chemical weapons threat aboard Air France Flight 22, which is en route from Paris and is expected to land at the New York City airport later this morning.
The threat is not considered to be credible at the moment, but when officials tried to reach Air France representatives they were unsuccessful because it is also a state holiday in France.

I am thinking they may not be told about the extent of the threat while they are in the air.
To: kristinn
Fusion? There's that word again.
Scrambled? What were they gonna do after that?

You now hold the Free Republic record for most repeated post on one thread!
I have always believed in you.
I’d nominate you for a picture on the box of Wheaties, but I don’t want you to go Bruce Jenner on us.

"they were unsuccessful because it is also a state holiday in France."France is so civilized. (see John Kerry) The terrorists are expected to take National Holidays off from work.

Admin Mod, cleanup on aisle 4.No leave it. I've never seen such a genuine multiple post.
And it is sort of appropriate.
