The New York Police Department is investigating a suspicious white powder sent to the offices of The New York Times.

The newspaper told employees that the substance was found Wednesday morning when an employee opened a letter on the 13th floor of company headquarters in midtown Manhattan. Police were called to the scene and are investigating to determine if the substance is harmful.

This comes after over 30 letters also containing a mysterious powder were delivered "to Chase bank branches and federal banking regulators' offices in nine cities."

The FBI is continuing its investigation. Apparently, the powder delivered to the financial instituions was harmless.

Strange days, indeed.

Anybody want to surmise a guess as to what this is actually all about?

Some Journalist probably got a bit clumsy with the 'Ol Columbian marching powder' and didn't want to fess up!

Look like I beat you to the punch on this story, although I included the bank story as well.

see this thread

it's a good excuse for the banks to clear the buildings and get rid of a lot of paperwork that would incriminate them.

last time they brought down the world trade centres to hide the paper trail of their their wrongdoings

Powerful financial institutions and the New York Times would certainly be on the short-list of many nefarious entities out there who want to conjure up some "good" ol' fashioned fear.

I can only wonder if there's more to this story, however.

cnn.com finally has this on their main page:

www.cnn.com...

"Steal tens of thousands of people's money and not expect repercussions. It's payback time. What you just breathed in will kill you within 10 days. Thank [word redacted] and the FDIC for your demise," said one letter released by the FBI on Thursday.

i wonder who they thanked... IMF? Federal Reserve? Bilderberg's?! lol...

Actually the socialist mafia party of the Hungarian Government did the same "self-threatening" when they started to loose grounds and started to make themselves as the victims. They used the same white powder trick. These bankers are doing the same. They're sending these harmless letters to themselves. If someone would want to kill them, they wouldn't be alive already. That's a fact.

If any FBI or Fed guys are reading this, here is a hint. Start to search for the suspects between those ones whose are working at those corporations, especially between those ones whose were addressed. I give you 99% for that you'll find your suspect between them. They're intending to make the victims from themselves and want to gain the sympathy of the population with these sort of harmless self-threatening.
