NEW YORK (AP) - A reported plot to bomb city 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 an informant's 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. "This is after ongoing review and analysis."

4. Well was the "informant"
wearing a leash or sandbag? Unreliable information.

We know torture does not produce good feedback.

5. NYC Terror Plot inspired by Rove over White House problems
This Bush administration is totally corrupt and would stoop to ANY level to take the spotlight off of them -- We got; "Rove-Plame-gate" Delay indicted for money laundring -

Dr. Frist? millions involved in what is going around the beltway as comparing Frist to Tom Waskall (just started doing 7.4 years for inside trading)

Iraq phoney war Generals on the ground just said they went from 3 Iraqi battalions down to one! Rumsfeld claims this is a good thing???
We have a bunch of lunatics in the White House attempting to have us swallow this BS.

Personally I believe that Cheney is the one higher senior level official going to be named as co-conspirataor quoted by unnamed sources linked to Fitzgeral.
