I used to regularly walk through that tunnel that the terrorist targeted.
Via Heritage:
Almost 18 years after 9/11, it has been a while since we’ve heard of any successful Islamist terrorism attacks. That doesn’t mean no attempts are being made, however.
If you live in New York City, you probably recall Akayed Ullah’s 2017 bombing of the subway tunnel near Times Square.
Fortunately, successful attacks are few and far between of late. But that’s not for lack of trying.
So far in 2019, the U.S. has foiled seven Islamist terror plots targeting the American homeland. Here’s a quick snapshot of a few of them:
January: Hasher Taheb plotted to attack the White House and attempted to acquire rifles, explosives and rocket launchers. The seller was actually an undercover FBI agent, who along with other undercover agents and informants, had been investigating and communicating with Taheb about his radical ideology and violent plans.
March: Rondell Henry, inspired by terrorist attacks around the world using vehicles, stole a U-Haul truck and drove it around Dulles Airport and the National Harbor in the D.C. area, looking for a prime opportunity to run over pedestrians. He found security at the airport was too tight and the crowds too small on a Wednesday night so he delayed his plans for a day, which gave police time to find him and the stolen truck.
