FBI: Possible Attack on Media at Dem Convention
2004-07-23
FBI warns of possible attack on media vehicles
There's a new warning of possible attacks at the Democratic National Convention next week in Boston. The FBI says the targets could be news media vehicles. And the attackers could be a radical domestic group.
This is the usual Fed euphemism for right-wing "militants."
In a statement, the agency says there are unconfirmed reports that a domestic group will try to disrupt the convention "by attacking media vehicles with explosives or incendiary devices." TV stations were warned yesterday. Satellite trucks are already stationed at the FleetCenter, where the convention begins Monday.
Media: "Why do they hate us?"

#2  Is this a promise or a threat?

#1  The most likely explanation for this is that some arm-chair commando has cooked up an elaborate plan for this, complete with improvised explosives and personal derring-do then discussed it on the net with like-minded individuals, and now it has spread so much that the FBI can't track it to the source.
