Increasing tensions between Washington and Tehran have revived New York Police Department concerns that Iranian agents may already have targeted the city for terror attacks. Such attacks could be aimed at bridges and tunnels, Jewish organizations and Wall Street, NYPD briefers told security execs last fall, according to a person with access to the briefing materials who asked for anonymity because of the sensitive subject matter.

Kind of perfect timing for a so-called "Anti-Terror" Exercise, you think not?

Before the big act, there is always a rehearsal?

Just like on 9/11 and 7/11.

Wow, the fear factor is in full swing again.

In November 2003, Ahmad Safari and Alireaza Safi, described as Iranian Mission "security" personnel, were detained by transit cops when they were seen videotaping subway tracks from Queens to Manhattan at 1:10 in the morning.

After 911, you'd think we would of HELD THESE PEOPLE instaed of allowing them to leave NYC wouldnt you,

This reminds me of the days in march 2003, where the US admin placed patriot missiles around DC in fear Iraqi elements were about to launch an attack.

If this is the sort of propoganda coming out, i dont think what evers going to happen, is far off.

I really wish people would stop being so paranoid and such.

Iran is not going to attack New York.

As hard as it seems for certain people to understand, the President of
Iran has little to no power, he's almost basically a figurehead.

The real power rests in the hands of the Supreme leader and the Imams.

And theya are'nt quite as psychotic or war mongering as the current Iranian president.

I do not know about that. Just last year claims were made that Iran alleged to have recruited suicide bombers said to number in thousands who were alleged to be ready to die for Iran if need be.

And that was for both domestic and foreign based US interests

I guess you have not read your articles very good.

Even if I am going to quote WorldNutDaily right now, I am doing that just to proove a thing, which is that nobody is going to attack United States FIRST:

Iran has 40,000 human 'time bombs'

"We are not afraid of the American fleets or the British weapons in Iraq," he says. "We vow to become time bombs in the event of every aggression on our land."

In case of AGRESSION on their land.

Which is kind of not so far away as I can see.

As far as the sources you used are concerned - they are all just a bunch of propagandists for spreading hate towards Islam and anything Muslim.

If there's another explosion on American soil after these last few years of giving up our rights one by one to prevent that from happening, maybe one or two people who still support Bush's anti-terror strategies will realize that their fearless leader is an idiot.

I mean, this is like trying to prevent hornet attacks by grabbing the nest and giving it a good hard shake.
