NY subway threat to celebrate Ramadan?

Huge mobilization of security people as latest serious threat to New York from Islamofascist terrorist bastards detailed by Newsday.

A "credible threat" to the subway system has prompted a vast mobilization of police officers, law enforcement sources said today.

Hundreds of officers were expected to be dispatched as early as this afternoon to every station in Manhattan -- and possibly system wide -- to thwart the attack, which was said to timed to the Jewish High Holidays and the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

The world is fortunate that the devout among Christians and Jews don't try to celebrate Christmas and Easter with mass murder. President Bush was right this morning when he declared that an evil ideology is behind the terrorism; he just doesn't go far enough and call it like it is: unless there is a serious theological re-writing of the Koran and Muslim history, crap like this is gonna happen.

Police could not yet identify the source of the threat, other than to call it "credible."

A law enforcement official, who spoke on condition of anonymity in advance of an official announcement, told the Associated Press that the threat is "specific to place, time and method," and that the method is bombing.

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

The threat comes as the city emerges from two days of hightened alert during the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashana. Police officers patrolled outside of synagogues as thousands of congregants attended services.

The threat may be to NYC but as we saw last Saturday night it doesn't necessarily mean everyone else is exempt. Stay vigilant.

UPDATE -- Michael Tapscott speculates that the NYC plans are the second of what was planned as a series of Ramadan-gala events by terrorists. The first, he believes, was to have been death and destruction at the OU-K-State football game.
