Subway Bomb Threat: A Hoax to Gain More Power?
The Nazis said that if you lied to the people enough times, telling them there was an outside enemy, they would come to believe it.
Our Neo-con administration appears to have studied that Nazi technique. They seem to be trying to apply it to the American citizens. I presume it's for the same reasons: they want to obtain permanent and total power.

Officials find no evidence of subway bombing plot

NEW YORK -- A reported plot to bomb subways with remote-controlled explosives has not been corroborated after days of investigation, law enforcement officials said Sunday amid an easing sense of concern.
Interrogations of suspects captured in Iraq last week after a tip about bomb-laden suitcases and baby carriages have yet to yield evidence that the plot was real, officials said.
"The intelligence community has been able to determine that there are very serious doubts about the credibility of this specific threat," Homeland Security Department spokesman Russ Knocke said.
Homeland Security officials have been skeptical about the threat since it was publicly announced Thursday, but officials who were more assertive about the potential danger last week also appeared to be softening their assessment.
A Homeland Security memo said the attack might have been planned to take place on or around Sunday.
