According to the NYPost, Islamic State terrorists are plotting an attack on US and Paris subway systems, Iraq’s prime minister warned Thursday morning at the United Nations.

Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said he was told of the plot by his intelligence in Baghdad, and that it was from foreign ISIS fighters in Iraq, according to the Associated Press.

What a mess we are in. Obama's "smart" diplomacy worked well, didn't it? What a failure this guy has been, in every way.

And the police should be on a heightened state of alert, unless you feel a complete lock down of the city and putting it under martial law is what is required. I think that'd be a bit much.

If this is the Arab Spring, I think it is going to be a rough winter.

Now how in the world does one defend a subway system?

if ISIS were anything more than an engineered replacement
to the "past its expiration date" al-CIAda - they would be targeting
officials, not random New Yorkers. think. Cui Bono ?

Definitely makes me happy to not be living in the NYC metro any more. I love that ISIS kills someone and right wingers are all upset that Obama isn't doing anything about it. Now Obama is attacking ISIS and right wingers are all upset that Obama is actually doing something.

It makes me wonder, what exactly does right wingers want Obama to do about this situation?

I am actually surprised the talking heads on news media are not giving ISIL/thugs, what ever we want to call these ****s, directions, instructions on how to do it. You know if you keep saying something long enough over the air waves, its apt to come true.

And let's not forget to remind everybody how bright they are, how dangerous, and how helpless we all are
