The world and the media are really confusing us right now.
According to a press conference, there is no 'credible' 9/11 anniversary threat against the United States, linked to the 10th anniversary of the September 11th, 2011 attacks, however the country is under 'heightened' vigilance, a top security official said, today.
On 9/11, over 3,000 people were killed in attacks on the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and Shanksville and now the country is taking the necesscary precautions to make sure it doesn't happen again.
U.S. Security is expected to be tight this Sunday, when President Barack Obama will attend ceremonies at the three attack locations.
So, basically, the government says there are no legitimate threats, but they just want to make sure that their nightmares don't come true. We understand why they're doing this, but we just hope the anniversary isn't spent by people being worried about another attack, instead of remembering the thousands of people who lost their lives on that tragic day.
We'll keep you updated.
Update: Press conference happening now.
Update: Specific, credible, but unconfirmed threat. Government asks people to stay vigilant. Government taking extra precautions.
Update: Call 311 if you see anything suspicious, call 911 if you see anything dangerous. Video teleconference to take place Friday morning. "See something, say something."
