The AP is reporting --- Explosive Laden van stopped by police -- 2-3 arrested -- THIS MIGHT BE A RUMOR, AS THE POLICE WILL NOT CONFIRM IT --


Also, survivors are making cell phone calls in the bottom of the buildings ----

TV --


they went to a live collegue, but the connection wasn't working -- watch CNN for update -- they will come back to it -- they came on, said it -- had problems, went back to what is currently on....

I saw it too, but they quickly dropped it and said that there are POSSIBLY people still in the WTC using cell phones to call out!

What terrorists dont realize is that this is having the opposite effect on America. We dont dwell on our terror. We draw closer together and grow angrier at their actions.

If true, this may have just been a copycat crime.

With this capture of the van we now have suspects for the other bombings!

After the police get the info they need, I hope no one accidently falls off the bridge and catch a bullet in the head on the way down.

Since they hate the US so much, why apply the US Constitution?

make the mofo's talk! hopefully they have not been kept entirely ignorant of what's up... surely they know what organization they belong to!

edit: damn! well, i guess it's a good thing... but such straightforward leads would be reassuring.

The mayor just announced there were no explosives in the van.

Damn! Thought we had a break in the story. It would have given us a target.

News just said passerby?s saw three men "Celebrating" after they saw the towers collapse. The passersby?s notified the police and the police stopped and searched the van. No explosives were found!

if the guys had anything to do with the WTC incident, I doubt the cops would be able to get much out of them
