There is also this thread about a strike in Somalia. Don't know if they are related, but maybe some info was recovered from that strike that initiated the search in NYC?
Did on...
I was thinking the same thing. They may have found something related then reacted only to find that they have flown the coup in queens and are now on the loose. They will have to address congress.

Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., who was briefed by FBI officials, said he couldn't discuss much of the case because many of the details were still classified.
"There was nothing imminent, and they are very good now at tracking potentially dangerous actions and this was preventive," Schumer said.
He added that the law enforcement action was unrelated to President Barack Obama's visit Monday to New York. ___

Just an additional piece of info from the Chicago Tribune.

Normal reasons
1) If people hear about it with out hearing it first from the FBI then they may panic.
You mean hearing the story from Congress? I am confused.
2) So the congress people know why they are being recalled.
Confused, again, "we are recalling you to let you know you have been recalled"? I am totally lost.
Conspiracy reasons
1) Create panic to better bring in a false flag.
This I agree with, make people think the threat is real and brewing for weeks before a false-flag.
2) To make people concerned and more likely to bug out, making those least likely to follow along blindly easier to identify.
Apathy and affluenza are the two biggest ailments that our country suffers from...no one is going anywhere, at least not with a little scare like this.

For what it is worth... just a bit more info. The address to Congress has everyone baffled.
Separately, federal authorities started briefing a series of senior lawmakers in Congress about the case.
www.cjbk.com...
The part in bold is the one that scares me most. Patriot Act part II anyone?
Federal agents to congress:
"The terrorists we were trying to catch in the act got away, If we just had a couple more tools we would have had them!" "Here's what we need"
Oh yea, people will be begging for it.

Found this from the NY Post, so who knows.
www.nypost.com...
The suspected terrorist, described as an ethnic Afghani resident of the Midwest in his 20s — who may have previously lived in Queens — had driven to New York City in recent days and visited multiple apartments in Queens over the weekend, sources said.
Afterwards he returned to the Midwest under surveillance, sources said, and is being monitored as part of an ongoing terrorism investigation being conducted by the U.S. Attorneys Office in Brooklyn.
The Joint Terrorism Task Force executed search warrants on several homes that he visited, including at least one at Parsons Boulevard and 41st Avenue, sources said.
The unidentified man, who sources believe recently traveled to Afghanistan, left New York City yesterday.

The part about the FBI addressing SENIOR members of Congress is referring to a Senate Sub-Committee on Homeland
Security and Government Affairs or the Sub-Committee on Terrorism and
Homeland Security.
Those Senior members do not comprise all of Congress but the following members:
Terrorism and Homeland Security
Benjamin L. Cardin, Chairman (MD)
Jon Kyl, Ranking Member (AZ)
Herb Kohl (WI)
Dianne Feinstein (CA)
Charles E. Schumer (NY)
Richard J. Durbin (IL)
Edward E. Kaufman (DE)
Orrin G. Hatch (UT)
Jeff Sessions (AL)
John Cornyn (TX)
Tom Coburn (OK)
Homeland Security and Government Affairs
Joseph I. Lieberman Chairman (ID) (CT)
Susan M. Collins Ranking Member (ME)
Carl Levin (MI)
Tom Coburn (OK)
Daniel K. Akaka (HI)
John McCain (AZ)
Thomas R. Carper (DE)
George V. Voinovich (OH)
Mark L. Pryor (AR)
John Ensign (NV)
Mary L. Landrieu (LA)
Lindsey Graham (SC)
Claire McCaskill (MO)
Robert F. Bennett (UT)
Jon Tester (MT)

Not all members would have to be there for a Briefing. Outside of the Chairman and Ranking Member, attendance is not mandatory or can be by proxy (usually appointed Staff).
EDIT: Scheduled for Wednesday with the Senate Sub-Committee on Terrorism and Homeland Security is the following Hearing with the FBI already...Oversight of the Federal Bureau of Investigations.

So the NY Post is about to be raided?
Because if they have just released info into the national news identifying a man who is supposed to be under surveillance, they'll be in some deep crap.
Or, more likely, this is a part of the BS story to cover what is really happening.
No info like this would reach the press if a guy was under surveillance, it's just not possible. If he's being watched, they are NOT going to release such detailed information to any press.
There's a lot about this that is looking more and more suspicious by the hour.
