New York will always be a target for obvious reasons (economic status, media exposure, etc.).

Remember what Micheal Moore said: "There is no terrorist threat. No threat!. Ps. Iraqi insurgents are not terrorists, they are heroes". Was it Daily News that leaked this? New York Jazeera failed to warn terrorists this time?? WTF??

Our government is scamming us into ceding our rights in return for security, but they are the ones creating the threat: A noted terror expert has told the BBC that Mohammed Siddique Khan, the alleged ringleader of the 7/7 London bombings, was working for British intelligence agency MI5 as an informant at the time of the attacks. Charles Shoebridge is a 12-year veteran detective of the London Metropolitan Police, a former graduate of the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, and now a broadcaster and writer on terrorism in the UK. Shoebridge told the BBC Newshour program that from the evidence little else can be assumed other than that Khan was working for British intelligence. "The amount of information coming out and the quality of information coming out. The fact that that has been so consistently overlooked it would appear by the security service MI5, to me suggests really only one of two options." "Either, a) we've got a level of incompetence that would be unusual even for the security services. But b) possibly, and this is a possibility, that this man Khan may even have been working as an informant for the security service." "It is difficult otherwise to see how it can be that they've so covered his tracks in the interim."

"What's especially weird is that apparently the plotters got their maps off the Homeland Security's website."? ... Well, that's embarrassing!
