NY, NJ bombings: Authorities suspect possible terror cell, officials say


I wonder if DeBlasio is STILL saying it's not terrorism.

From CNN:
New York police say they're looking for 28-year-old Ahmad Khan Rahami in connection with the Chelsea bombing over the weekend. 
Also on Monday morning, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Monday the bombs found over the weekend have similarities, suggesting "there might have been a common linkage." 
Cuomo said the investigation is ongoing, and he "wouldn't be surprised if it zeroes in on a particular individual, today even," and he "wouldn't be surprised if we found a foreign connection to the act."

That’s from an unimpeachable police source, but I haven’t second sourced it yet. Don’t know how old they are or how long they’ve been here.

Unable to get confirmation of earlier tweet that 5 Afghans arrested in connection w #explosions. Source never wrong before-but not confirmed

Pasto,
Also see the post that I published just a few minutes before yours. A bit of information about First American Fried Chicken -- and my recollection of Oriana Fallaci's warning.
