Sources: Al-Qaeda Plans Attack On Northeastern U.S. Coast Subways

al-Qaeda threatens Penn Station New York City Subways -- Subway Jared Fogle not yet named as a person of interest...Subway’s Jared S. Fogle And Other Afiliates Of The Fast Food Sandwich Franchise Tremble In Fear As FBI Confirms Al-Qaeda Has Plans To Attack In The Near Future

Jared S. Fogle, a.k.a., “Subway Jared”, “The Subway Guy”, or simply as “that annoying dude who claims to have lost 500 pounds by eating Subway sandwiches for a week” (or something to that effect) has thus far been “mum” on recent threats by al-Qaeda terr’ists to bomb selected Subways (Source: WCBSTV.Com) in and around the New York City area:

“The world’s economic fears were violently pushed aside on Wednesday by another global threat — terrorism.

A massive coordinated attack was launched in Mumbai, India just hours after the FBI warned that Al Qaeda may be targeting New York’s subways…”

And here’s what a couple of NYC residents had to say about the potential threat to their favorite fast food franchise:

“… Added Ryan Barreiro: “I’m not too worried about it. That’s exactly what they want. If they’re gonna get you, they’re gonna get you.”

“I’m not afraid,” Rick Hendrickson said. “I’ve lived here my whole life, in Manhattan, so has my wife and we just take life as it comes along.” …

AMEN, my fellow Citizens. I say keep your powder dry and do NOT allow “fear” to keep you away from those delicious Subway turkey subs on this Thanksgiving Day, 2008. Not to mention, it would be an absolute travesty should “Subway Jared” choose to mow down on something fattening at another fast food restaurant simply because the feds are tweaking out about another “terr’r” attack.

IN ALL SERIOUSNESS: Happy Thanksgiving, friends, readers, contributors and to all of my fellow American Citizens and those who aspire to become my fellow American Citizens in the future. God Bless and don’t let “fear” get in the way of your liberty. Oh, and my heart goes out to the victims of the senseless Mumbai terror attacks (Source: NY Times)…

      Like Joe, I share the same sentiments. This blog is one of the best out there.

      As far as fear is concerned, meh… I’m more afraid of green fuzz and cockroaches. :P
