Why the hell would they make this info public? Surely terrorists read the Post - who could blame them? And besides, it's an occupational requirement. So either the FBI wanted to tip them off so they'd go into hiding, or they wanted to make fools of themselves in two weeks when the arrests don't happen, or something. Are they hoping we'll just be impressed today and forget it by the day after tomorrow? What sense does this make? And why would the jingoistic Post publish the story?
