The 9-11 Threat (Updated)

Federal Authorities Probe Possible Terror Threat Around 9/11 Anniversary  "Details trickled in throughout the evening. The potential threat is said to focus on New York City or Washington, D.C., and involves possible suspects tied to Al Qaeda, sources said. Authorities have received a "general description" of two or three possible suspects but don't necessarily have names, one source said. Authorities are trying to determine if such suspects might already be in the U.S."  Graphic images from 9-11-2001

Al-Qaeda planning 9/11 anniversary attack?  "The general info on the threat was developed from intel we got in Abbottabad after killing Osama. Allah takes that one step further and points to the recent capture of al-Qaeda's international operations chief in Pakistan as a possible source for more specific information:"...

Al Jazeera: Officials say manhunt is under way for suspects as New York and Washington raise security ahead of attacks' anniversary.

Three Al Qaeda Suspects Sought in ‘Credible But Unconfirmed’ 9/11 Terror Threat  "The plot has been linked to three "seasoned" Al Qaeda operatives, whose common names have made their location difficult to determine, the Daily News reports. One of the suspects is an American citizen and two of them are thought to have U.S. documentation. The men are believed to have entered the United States through the Pakistan and the United Kingdom last month, with the Times reporting that they came originally from Afghanistan, selected by Osama Bin Laden's successor Ayman al-Zawahiri to set off vehicular attacks on Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday."

How al Qaeda Prepares Attacks against the West: What the July 7-8 Rollup Revealed  "We should not expect al Qaeda-linked attacks against the West to occur independently of one another. Instead, the network of violent Islamist movements led by al Qaeda produces and manages attacks against the West through a three-phase terror attack assembly line: recruiting, pre-deployment and training, and coordination with deployed operatives prior to attacks."
