Plan To Put Radiological Sensors Within 50-Mile Radius Of City On Hold After Dept. Of Homeland Security Nixes Cash

Lawmakers: This Is Mind-Boggling; NYPD: What Is Washington Thinking?

After facing one of the most serious terror threats since the 9-11 attacks,
Department of Homeland Security officials are slashing a big chunk of
anti-terror funding to New York City.

Local lawmakers say the cut could
put American lives at risk.

Just weeks after Najibullah Zazi was nabbed
in an al-Qaida terror plot to explode dirty bombs here, the feds have
inexplicably slashed Big Apple terror funding designed to build a network of
sensors to uncover nuclear or radioactive devices in a 50 miles radius of the
city.

"To me this is beyond comprehension that less than a month after
al-Qaida attempted an attack against New York City that you would have the
Congress cutting the money that New York City needs to defend itself from a
dirty bomb attack. It's absolutely mind-boggling," Rep. Peter King, R-Long
Island, told CBS 2 HD on Thursday afternoon.

The city wanted $40 million
to build the network at bridges, tunnels and other locations in the metropolitan
area. Congress only earmarked $20 million for the program and then slipped NYC a
doubly whammy — the money is in a pot that other city's can apply for, so we
may not even get the $20 million.

"This $20 million can be spread around
like political pork the way other homeland security funds have been spread
around the country," King said.

"This is a bad day for New York."
