[BrunoPuntzJones]

was reading out of the l.a. times just now in a story set to run tomorrow. said they have found a ring of about 50 people who were suspectedly in on the entire plot. 40 of them (including the ones that suicided) have been accounted for and 10 remain at large. also reported that the grounding of the planes was to also to keep the ones remaining at large in the country and in the city they were located. also said that suicide notes had been found addressed to relatives by the guys who had hijacked the planes. i just typed this from memory best i could so it may be a little off.

[BrunoPuntzJones]

thanks goog, just assumed it wouldnt be up yet

 

[pinoy]

hope this is not a false story just to give hope to everybody. If true, why do we have to wait for this to happen?

 

[rival]

wait for what?

i take it 50 names were produced, 40 of those are known adresses? have they been detained?

 

[Jokeram]

I heard it too... I think the 40 included the dead hijackers.... there are still 10 potentially suicidal people out there.

<< hope this is not a false story just to give hope to everybody. If true, why do we have to wait for this to happen? >>

who says we do? last night one expert on t. said that we may have prevented 14 of these last month for all the public knows. we dont hear about the successful stops, just the failures now that's a bit exaggerated but still.

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

wow!
LATIMES IS ROCK

 

[Dolemite69]

when are they gonna mention it on the news? I'm watching dan rather right now...

 

[Pyroclazm]

THIS IS HUGE! shows how fast they can work... makes me feel a bit more safe

 

[gygheyzeus]

this could be some good news for once. i hope they get this all figured out.

 

[brxndxn]

WOW

 

[dman]

Well we're on a roll. Good Job FBI, Keep it up.

I wonder if this will make the morning edition, or if it'll wait until an afternoon edition...

 

[KevinH]

I am REALLY hoping this is true. Is anyone else worried that perhaps some names were picked out of a hat to placate the public for now while the investigation continues?

 

[goog40]

The FBI really amazes me with how much they can get done so quickly, glad we have those guys on our side. It's coming together now, if the report from the thread on Iraq's involvement is confirmed. They'll get theirs

It should be in the morning edition, I don't think they finalize the paper until ~2-3 AM PST

 

[jehh]

And some people think the FBI isn't good at anything...

This is why we have an FBI, and why we need them around...
