FBI-CIA raid in Iraq?

Sounds like a high value target was nabbed.

Okay, why is this breaking news when there was an actual suicide bombing attempt in Oklahoma that is being kept off the National Airwaves?

Perhaps the information about the subways is the result if information obtained during the investigation of the attemted homocide bombing in Oklahoma -- information that would have probably disappeared within hours after the blast if the national media had gone national over the Oklahoma situation.

Something is weird with the OU deal. I have not heard anything on local or national news. OU, TX weekend in Dallas is Sat. That is at the State Fair of Texas. FYI

Nope.

That policy has been in effect since the bombings of the Tube in London.

Random searches.

Randomized idiocy is more like it.

Maybe classified, but earlier it was said that the threat was specific as to time and location.

Backpedaling now just like OKC One.

If they give out the info, people could avoid the areas. Hopefully they are keeping it secret because they are going to grab the bad guy. Dreaming? Probably...

"If you see something, say something." - Bloomberg.

Caller: "Hello, 911? There's a man in a turban with wires coming out of his jacket and into his briefcase; he's about to board the 'A' Train!"

911 dispatcher: "I'm sorry, sir, there nothing illegal about a man in a turban having wires coming out of his jacket into his briefcase." (Click)

Breaking News: Terror Threat On NYC Subway

(CBS) NEW YORK

Mayor Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Ray Kelly are announcing an increase in security on the New York City subway system, after intelligence reports indicate a "credible security threat" to its transit system.

A source tells CBS 2 News that the threat is "specific to place, time and method," and that the method is bombing.

Rep. Peter King confirmed the threat, saying "Obviously, this is a significant threat." King is chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee.

The law enforcement official said authorities are especially concerned about bags on the subway, and plan to flood New York's mass transit system with police officers.

An estimated 4.5 million passengers ride the New York subway on an average weekday. The system has more than 468 subway stations.

You think Bloomberg and all his money really do take the subway daily? Or just a photo opt?

3 Iraqi insurgents were arrested and one of them disclosed the threat.

I'm surprised AP admits this. If we weren't in Iraq, we wouldn't have found out about this threat.

Man, I can't stand Bloomberg. He talks so condescendingly.

I agree but then I have only ever heard him talking to the IDIOT MSM and I am afraid I would be even more condescending. :o)

Make sure they get sensitivity training first.

Once they hear an explosion... and start finding bodies... they'll release more information.
