Mitchell D. Silber (Director, Intelligence Analysis, NYPD Intelligence Division) reviewed recent New York-based plots by Al Qaeda-inspired and
self-radicalized individuals, such as the May 2011 plot by Ahmed Ferhani
and Mohamed Mamdouh to detonate bombs at Manhattan synagogues and the
case of Jose Pimentel, AKA Muhammad Yusuf, who was arrested last
November as he constructed bombs that he intended to use against post
offices and police cars in New York. Silber also discussed the roles of
Hezbollah and Iran in attacks on Israeli targets overseas and provided
information about a plot last month targeting synagogues in Milan, and
the recent attack on a Jewish school in Toulouse, France in which four
were killed.. View his presentation
