Bloomingdale's - Zionist department store with admittedly awesome wedding registry (nukes?) 2. Wet Seal - Whorish clothing made by our children (pick up p.j. bottoms, then torch) 3. Nine West - Trendy but practical office shoes for vile infidels (knock over shelves, demand 50% discount) 4. Restoration Hardware - Home Depot meets Banana Republic (bomb first) 5. Apple Store - Despite worthless dogs at Genius Bar, pretty fun place to shop (shoot up ceiling a bit) 6. Godiva - Promotes fornication with debauched, sinful chocolate strawberries (bomb if possible, if not, no biggie) 7. Footlocker - Infidels disguised as referees pretend to care about selling sneakers (leave alone, too freaky) 8. Calvin Klein - Long-lasting poly-blend underwear for homosexuals (behead staff) 9. Aveda - Western materialist sluttish vanity disguised as ecology (get "Black Malva" shampoo for Osama, then truck-bomb) CHICAGO RIDGE MALL http://www.236. <http://www.236.com/images/photos/3458/original/original.jpg> com/images/photos/3458/original/original.jpg 1.

The alert said al Qaeda "hoped to disrupt the U.S. economy and has been planning the attack for the past two years." Law enforcement officials tell ABCNews.com that the FBI received the information in late September and declassified it yesterday for wide distribution. The alert, like similar FBI and Department of Homeland Security terror alerts issued over the past five years at holiday times, raised questions about the credibility of the information. The bulletin acknowledges that U.S. intelligence officers are uncertain as to whether the information is real, and intelligence officers say there is a concern that it could be "disinformation." Law enforcement officials at three different agencies told ABCNews.com the FBI alert was based on a source who has proved reliable in the past. The source reportedly had only "indirect access" to al Qaeda and word of the actual threat came to U.S. intelligence officers "through a lengthy chain" of contacts. With the shopping season approaching, however, the FBI officials decided it was necessary to share the information. For the past few years, jihadist chat rooms have regularly posted comments from anonymous individuals who have suggested or boasted about similar plans to attack such soft targets as shopping malls. "Out of abundance of caution, and for any number of other reasons, raw intelligence is regularly shared within the intelligence and law enforcement communities -- even when the value of the information is unknown," said Special Agent Richard Kolko. "In the post-9/11 era, sharing information is our top priority. Al-Qa'ida messaging has clearly stated they intend to attack the U.S. or its interests; however, there is no information to state this is a credible threat. As always, we remind people to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity to authorities." "We have no credible, specific information suggesting an imminent attack," a DHS official said.
