Terrorists Detained in Britain--Orange Alert Justified

It appears that the recent Orange terror alert in parts of New York and New Jersey were well-founded, much to the distress of political hacks who were hoping that the Bush Administration was using the terror threat to divert attention from domestic politics in an election year.

Britain has detained al-Qaeda members who were in possession of blueprints of the New York Stock Exchange, the International Monetary Fund headquarters (also in New York), the Prudential Building in Newark, New Jersey, and the Citigroup Center skyscraper in New York City, which is the fifth tallest building in New York (915 feet high).

Well, well, well. The system appears to be working.

The eight terror suspects are being held in London and will be charged with violating the British Terror Act.

Too bad, hacks.
