Alleged shoe bomb plot
 
There's an article in today's NY Times concerning the number of potential terrorist attacks that have allegedly been thwarted since 9/11.

One of those attacks was to use a shoe bomb to hijack a plane and fly it into what is now the U.S. Bank tower in L.A.

Believe it? I'm not sure I do.

Jason Blair is back at the Times? I question anything that rag puts out.

Questioning any written piece makes some sense, but that doesn't mean doubting the NYT for reporting again that 1 apple +1 apple = 2 apples would be reasonable.
