Law enforcement authorities, including the FBI and the NYPD, are investigating the origins of an online posting that pictured a cityscape of New York with the words "Al Qaeda. Coming Soon Again in New York."
The graphic image surfaced Monday on a few jihadist websites, featuring the words in the English, and has prompted officials to investigate who posted it.
FBI spokesman J. Peter Donald said that while his agency was investigating, "there is no specific or credible threat to New York at this time."

If our officials knew these websites were linked to terrorism, then why weren't they shut down
@my grammar
Forgot the "?" in my above question.
Because they will just find other ones to post on. At least this way, the FBI or whomever can monitor what they're saying/planning.
They can scare you but they just can't fare they'll creep in the night- you'd miss the hare

"New Yorkers witness Jihad Server hurled out of 31st floor Queens apartment window".
lmfao @ jeff, awesome! Told ya, you were witty! 🙂
9/11 wasnt a credible threat either until after the fact.
And neither are you posing as hamsta! Troll!
Hi Chrissy..hope your doing well. I'm aways trying to read into two sides of the story. It seems the real, dreary, mundane side, has alomst nothing to grasp on to. Somebody else is always in control of it. No. They're right..that is a pretty sick vision to be posting. Truthfully it sort of incites panic, which is a chargeable offense.
@jeff: that's right. no bombs or anything are needed to terrorize people.
probably would have been more effective if they had hacked into yahoo or something and put it up. who goes to jihadist websites?
that'd be like me threatening my neighbor by putting a note up in my living room..
There is always a lot of crazy stuff on countless deviant and hate sites. Hope the authorities get to this one.
we ard waiting 4 d creepy idiots, empty barrelz makes d loudest noise.
Hey saywhat! Howve you been? And yea, its some sick minds at work in any case. And @ jeff, humor is always the best way to go!
Isnt this what bush jr said before 911?
I refuse to let these threats upset my daily life. I will not change my plans to fly out of NYC on Friday and head to Spain, Italy, and France. This is a long planned vacation and terror threats be damned. I will be bringing Victoria home with me. Will see all of you at the end of April.
A sick mind, a childish prank an act by Emanuel Goldstein, a threat by a possable terrorist, you the proles just go about your inane daily lives, your protector will take care of the dvil doer.
