Terror threat

The news networks are reporting that officials have "specific, credible but unconfirmed" information about terrorist threats against NYC and DC coinciding with Sunday's 10th anniversary of 9/11. Specifically, three men may be plotting to set off car bombs in one or both cities. That's the bad news. The good news is that we're aware of the potential attack. In the shadow war, that's half the ballgame in our favor. Here's hoping the threat amounts to nothing or we kill the plot in its crib.
