USA Anniversary threat News of 9/11

9/11 Attacked

 New York Mayor Michael Bloom berg said the threat was “uncorroborated”, but security would be boosted at bridges, tunnels and on public transport. Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said spot checks in the New York subway would be more frequent in coming days.

President Barack Obama called on the US tp “redouble” anti terror efforts.

Vehicle Bomb

The authorities say intelligence gathered in Pakistan points to possible car or truck bomb attacks at strategic points in New York or Washington. US TV network ABC News reports that three individuals one a US citizen entered the US in August aiming to carry out a terror attack. It was unclear whether this information was linked to the threat detailed by US officials.

This more specific information comes from the same CIA informant who said three people were dispatched by al Qaeda to carry out a bomb plot in either New York or Washington, and has allowed the intelligence man hunters to narrow down dramatically the pool of names that could match the partial descriptions the informant provided.

Twin Tower

The intelligence from the informant, who is considered reliable by the CIA, led to the national state of high alert over the possible terror strike on the anniversary of 9/11, but the informant’s information itself may be secondhand, ABC News has learned.

“Al Qaeda again is seeking to harm Americans and in particular to target New York and Washington, “Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Friday in New York. “We are taking this threat seriously. Federal, state and local authorities are taking all steps to address it.”

Early Thursday, at the White House, the president and the vice president received the first of several briefings on the threat. Around 7 p.m. Thursday, as the president arrived to address Congress, the FBI and the CIA were in high gear.

9/11 Conspiracy:

It’s been 10 years since 9/11, but the conspiracy theories have not gone away and some have evolved. Here we look at some of the biggest conspiracy theories.

Conspiracy theorists say:

The Twin Towers were destroyed by controlled demolitions. Theories relate to the rapid collapse(about 10 seconds), the relatively lived fires (56 minutes in World Trade Center 2 or 102 minutes in World Trade Center 10), reports of the sounds of explosions shortly before the collapse, and the violent ejections that could be seen at some windows many floors below collapse.
