Talk:Hudson River bomb plot

message: I'd suggest that these two articles be merged into just a discussion of the plot, unless/until more biographical information about Hammoud ever comes to light. Better to concentrate our work on improving a single article for readers to view and learn from :) Sherurcij (talk) (Terrorist Wikiproject) 22:36, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a reasonable suggestion, though it looks like the Arabic press is starting to gear up for personal exposés on Hammoud and his family (there's a picture of Hammoud in Canada on Talk:Assem_Hammoud) while western media's focusing on the plot and it's details.  It's unclear how quickly we'll be given tactical/operational details of the plot vs. personal details of Hammoud and whether there's any clarity in separating them.

text: I tried a merge today, without actually deleting anything from Hammoud's personal article. But I think all the information is now contained within this article succinctly.  Does it look too crowded? I don't personally think so, but welcome opinions Sherurcij (Speaker for the Dead)  00:33, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge

message: The article currently states that: "This was unfeasible because the tunnel is embedded in bedrock, and the target is above sea level".
First, it wasn't just one tunnel they were looking at (or at least that's the claim). There are two PATH (kind of a subway) tunnels between NYC and New Jersey, and there are also the vehiclar ones.
Second, parts of the tunnels are resting right against the river (water) with just maybe a few feet of soft silt between them. And third, while the street level and higher floors of the buildings are above sea level, the basements and utility ducts are under it.
When the WTC was destroyed, there was plenty of concern that its "bathtub" would breach, and that river water would pour into the subways and into financial district buildings. Both the subway system and PATH built giant concrete "plugs" in their respective tunnels to hold back the water.
