The FBI's Newark office issued a stark warning Thursday as it announced it had received "credible information" about a nonspecific but widescale threat to synagogues in New Jersey.

The FBI described the threat as "broad." However, a senior law enforcement official tells News 4 New York warning the public was done in "an abundance of caution."

"We ask at this time that you take all security precautions to protect your community and facility," FBI Newark tweeted in part. "We shall share more information as soon as we can. Stay alert. In case of emergency call police."

3. It is sick

That our own government can’t defend us from terrorism on our own soul. One party stokes it and finances it, the other seems too damn scared to attack it head on. But damn if we can’t send our children overseas to die and spend trillions to fight it there.

17. The FBI described the threat as "broad."

The FBI should know better than to refer to anyone as being "broads".

Official: Man who made synagogue threat has been identified

By MICHAEL BALSAMO and MIKE CATALINI
November 4, 2022

Federal agents have identified the man they believe posted a broad online threat against synagogues in New Jersey but do not think he was planning to carry out a specific plot, a law enforcement official said Friday.

The man, whose identity was not immediately released, was questioned by law enforcement and told agents he had been bullied in the past and harbored anger toward Jewish people, the official said. But investigators do not believe the man had the means or motive to carry out any specific attack, the official added.

The official could not discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

The source of the threat “no longer poses a danger to the community,” the FBI in Newark tweeted.
