Feds Emailing Well-Connected Rich of NYC Subway Threat?
http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/355272p-302744c.html

The city's rich and well-connected were tipped off to last week's subway terror threat days before average New Yorkers, the Daily News has learned.
At least two E-mails revealing the purported plot were sent to a select crowd of business and arts executives early last week by New Yorkers who claimed to have close connections to Homeland Security and other federal officials, authorities said.

<snip>

"I have just received a most disturbing call from one of my oldest friends from growing up in Washington," one E-mail began. "He called with a very specific caution to not enter or use the New York City subway system from Oct. 7 through 10th."

A second E-mail sounded a similar ominous tone: "As some of you know my father works for Homeland Security, at a very high position and receives security briefings on a daily basis.

"The only information that I can pass on is that everyone should at all costs not ride the subway for the next two weeks in major areas of NYC."



This needs investigating! I also want to know who knew what before 9-11 - like those mysterious puts on the airlines.

1. Saw that in LBN - I hope this gets posted all over NYC
maybe that'll fix Bloombergs numbers to a more appropriate figure.

3. Our country simply doesn't work. It's not a Democracy. It's an
oligarchy.
