WASHINGTON (AP) -- Law enforcement agents have raided residences in New York City as part of a terrorism investigation, and are preparing to brief Congress about the investigation.
New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne confirms that searches were conducted in the borough of Queens on Monday by agents of a joint terrorism task force. He would not discuss the matter further.
Separately, federal authorities planned to brief senior lawmakers in Congress on the case later Monday.

WCBS NEWSRADIO 88:
Two U.S. intelligence officials, who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case publicly, said the target of any purported attack, or who would carry it out, remained unclear.
Authorities have not found any weapons ready for use, such as a bomb, that would indicate an attack was imminent, they said. Nevertheless, one of the officials called the threat very real and emphasized the urgency of the threat.
I THINK THE TIMING OF THIS RAID IS RELATED TO THE BINLADEN TAPE - AND TO "THE BIG ONE" ME AND PASTORIUS I FEARED.
I'D BET THE COPS HAD BEEN ON THIS CELL'S CASE FOR A WHILE, AND THEN WITH THE RELEASE OF THE BINLADEN TAPE DECIDED THEY HAD TO MOVE.
GLAD THE NYC POLICE IS UP TO THE JOB!
GOD BLESS ALL OUR UNIFORMED FORCES!
[BTW: WE BEAT HOT AIR AND DRUDGE ON THIS. JAWA BEAT US!

here's some more info on the raid's location:The New York City Police Department confirms homes on 147th Street between Parsons and 41st Avenue in Queens have [new TAB link!] been raided by law enforcement agents in connection with an ongoing investigation.It looks like this was not an imminent attack, but that the raid may have been triggered by the arrival of someone from the Middle East.And AllahP asks a very important question:
Is that normal for U.S. intel in an average terror bust — to grab hold of the congressional leadership and get them up to speed ASAP?So, a real threat if not imminent. Also big enough that it's time to brief Congress about it?I'll also note that it was multiple homes that were raided.
This is right near a major LIRR artery....
I'd bet they were gonna hit the LIRR a major commuter RR and that other cells are planning to whack other mass transit targets...
I hope they find all the other cells - even if they need to use torture!

I'm curious if any of the fucktards depicted in the footage below are involved:

I think this is Al Qaeda, Total. They work undercover.
Hmmm - torture. You mean like no sugar in their coffee??
Bill Warner has additional specific details as well as photos/video
The suspected terrorist, described as an ethnic Afghani resident of the Midwest in his 20s — who may have previously lived in Queens —(Mohammed Alkaramla, 25, lived in Queens New York before moving to the West Rogers Park Chicago neighborhood about 6 years ago and e-mailed Bomb Threats to Jewish School ) 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. One of the raids happened at the 41st Ave. apartment of Assad Niazi, a self-employed antiques dealer. Niazi said federal agents and cops rammed his door open at 2 a.m. “They looking for some powder, some different things for making bombs and different things,” Niazi told WCBS-TV. Niazi insisted he was not the target of the search. He said he has roommates that may have been targeted. “I don’t know [the other residents],” Niazi said. “They are roommates they go to work in the morning, and at night they come back, they are taxi cab drivers (Yousef Al-Khattab is a taxi cab driver in Queens NY).”

Ouch, I do not agree, torture is the tool of sadistic thugs.
I can go along with enhanced interrogation
Oh, nobody is going to even use "waterboarding" (which I maintain is not "torture" under any reasonable definition).
If the suspects don't get tempurpedic mattresses, prayer beads, prayer rugs, foot baths, bidets (?), pro bono defense and immigration lawyers from huge, expensive law firms and conjugal visits (yes, with all 32 of their wives), the Supreme Court of the United States will award them each $25 million in damages and they will get fully-paid tuition to "How to be a More Effective Terrori, uh, Man-Made Disaster Maker" classes.
Also free Cessnas and flying lessons.
And maybe a little British Protectorate in the Caribbean. (The Brits won't mind - they understand how we need to be culturally sensitive to these types of misunderstood laddies).
And some of that swell polonium, or some other suitable half-life -type element. Because not to do so would be RAAAAACISSSSST. And disrespectful of Islam. And xenophobic. And nazi-ish. And RAAAACISSSST. Oh, did I already say that?
Torture? Least of your worries.
New York subways and LIRR in queens are to a large extent in underground explosion containing and magnifying situations.
There is OCCASIONAL security in terms of subway cops. I'm not sure what there is on the LIRR, but otherwise it's perfect situation
Hit 5 or 6 trains and a large underground station, maybe hte shuttle from TImes square and Penn station, and people stay home.
Or get on the highway where you blow a fuel truck in the Queens midtown tunnel.
We remain wide open as any open society has to be.
That means unless we are willing to imitate the security of the USSR at a minumum, we better kills the bad guys where they are brought up, and taught that murder is good for god.
I don't understand why THAT is hard to understand for so many
I read today that there are Denver ties to this. There is surveillance taking place there right now. Unfortunately, the press leaked this information, so those who are being surveilled are aware now.
And,the FBI is seriously pissed at the New York police, for jumping too fast.
