NYC Terrorist Bust?

Details are still fuzzy on this, so I'll have more later. For now, here's as much as I've seen so far:

New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne confirmed that searches were conducted in the borough of Queens by agents of a joint terrorism task force. He would not discuss the matter further…

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.

Anyone who thinks we're out of danger now that Barack Obama is in the White House is utterly, completely foolish. The reality is that it's just the opposite.

There's my two cents.
