Fear of Al Qaeda on Wall Street? Let Justice Have It’s Moment

In a recent NTI report, A note of special concern is given to the threat of attacks by Yemeni Al Qaeda against Wall Street banks and financial executives. What a touch of irony, the terrorists of the financial world now threatened by the terrorists of the impoverished world.

Given the very nature of the attacks against middle class citizens from this financial horde, it would be nothing shy of entertaining to see some of America’s top terrorists (brokers and Speculators) being faced with an enemy that can’t be bribed to go away and who is far more power hungry as terrorist operatives from AL Qaeda would likely be.

Wall Street has become the centerpiece of American corruption and financial terrorism against the working class people of this country, and it would be considered a just reward by most Americans to see the icons of greed get a taste of some real justice for a change.

Though it remains true that America never wants to see another terrorist attack on our soil, it would seem almost appropriate for the institution of Wall Street to finally get paid back for all they have done to the rest of us without any penalty to be paid as of yet.  Posted below is the full report (very short) from NTI.

U.S. Intelligence Fears Al-Qaeda Plotting to Strike Wall Street

U.S. intelligence officials are informing the heads of some of the country's most powerful financial entities that Yemeni-based al-Qaeda operatives could be plotting terrorist strikes against Wall Street banks or their top managers, NBC News reported on Tuesday.

Security sources are emphasizing the danger is not specific and that there "is no indication of a targeted assassination plot" toward any banking leaders. Officials, though, worry that foreign-based extremists have talked about targeting specific individuals.

Intelligence researchers said there is a nonspecific but increasing fear that extremists in Yemen could make another attempt at shipping hidden explosive devices or chemical and biological weapons materials to New York financial institutions. U.S. authorities think extremists operating from Yemen were responsible for the packaged bombs addressed to Chicago-based synagogues in late October. The explosive devices -- hidden inside printer cartridges -- were intercepted in the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom but officials think they could have been designed to detonate in midflight.

Al-Qaeda's official magazine, "Inspire," in its most recent issue included a mention of attempting to deploy the biological pathogen anthrax in a terror strike, officials said.

Al-Qaeda member Abu Suleiman al-Nasser in a recent blog post exhorted, "Rush my Muslim brothers to targeting financial sites and the program sites of financial institutions, stock markets and money markets."

Law enforcement officials are advising Wall Street banking firms to improve security protocols inside and surrounding their mail departments and for the handling of packages, particularly those intended for senior firm officials.

Following the September 11 attacks, the New York Police Department significantly enhanced Wall Street security measures. Suspected extremists have been found in the past conducting surveillance of sites including the New York Stock Exchange and the Citicorp Center.

There is the report and to Wall Street a simple thought, eventually what comes around goes around, we would wish everyone there luck but all of us are paying for your greed and none of us really care about Wall Street these days anyway.
