Report: Feds arrest 3 in alleged JFK airport plot
Sources: Suspects planned to set off explosives at New York facility
BREAKING NEWS

Updated: 3 minutes ago
NEW YORK - Three people were arrested and one other was being sought Saturday in connection to a plot to set off explosives at John F. Kennedy International Airport, officials close to the investigation said.
The plot, which never got past the planning stages, did not involve airplanes or passenger terminals, according to the two officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because details of the arrests had not yet been announced.
They did not elaborate on the specific target at the airport, one of the nation’s busiest.
Law enforcement officials said the plot may have involved a former airport worker, as well as a former Guyanese goverment official, according to WNBC-TV NewsChannel4’s Jonathan Dienst, who first reported the story.
Details were to be given out at a 1 p.m. news conference.

this is so Crazy!!! Will this ever stop? I live not to far from the airport, and this week the planes were flying so low, it freaks me out. I literally hold my breath and stare at the sky every time one is low, b/c it is also so loud, it is like im waiting for the boom.... so scary, i get goosebumps everytime.

Re: Report: Feds arrest 3 in alleged JFK airport plot
I'm glad I don't work there anymore. My family freaked out on me on 9/11 when we weren't allowed to leave work while everything was going on.
Thankfully they were arrested before anything happened

For me, personally, I feel safer now than I ever have. Of course, we are more aware now and there's an "on guard" feeling that we have since 9/11 but in order to avoid plots becoming reality I think we need to stay that way...
These types of "plots" have been going on a long time before 9/11 happened. Things like the USS Cole being bombed and the American Embassy in Egypt being bombed happened before 9/11 and they were successful primarily because it was overseas and easier to accomplish than coming here--
9/11 (aside from the very first WTC attack- which, of course, was not as serious) but 9/11 was the first MAJOR attack to be brought here which made us really wake up to the fact that we need to protect ourselves and be careful-- not so much scared-- but aware... and I think we are more aware that we DO need to be careful since 9/11 which, IMO, is a good thing. It's not a perfect world and never was so we need to realize that... I feel all of that is why this particular plot, among others, has been thwarted.
I commend our Federal Agents for working so hard to keep us safe. Thank God for them.

ITA!
It sounds like this plot wasn't really feasible. I hate when they use scare tactics and make such a big deal about these things, knowing the terrorists would not have been able to carry them out. Arrest the people, throw them in jail, etc but don't act like you saved us from Armageddon.

Re: Report: Feds arrest 3 in alleged JFK airport plot
This upset me a lot last night. I too live not far from the airport and dont like when the planes fly over my house so low.
I hate being such a "target" in NY. Makes me want to move out of state but I would never do that b/c all of our families are here and I just cant do it.

Re: Report: Feds arrest 3 in alleged JFK airport plot
my sister had a flight out of JFK on Friday...she missed her 4:45 flight (which did not wind up taking off until 7pm)
The 9:456 flight that they were scheduled to be on was delayed until 1am due to "the weather" (that is what they were told)
They wound up taking a flight on Saturday morning and arrived safely
