The arrest of Faisal Shahzad

(CNN) – The White House says there's now evidence that the Pakistani Taliban, a group said to have close ties with al Qaeda, was behind the botched bomb plot in Times Square. Attorney General Eric Holder says the Justice Department hopes to find a money trail leading straight to the suspect, Faisal Shahzad.

To talk more about the arrest, we were joined on Monday's American Morning by three men from U.S. Customs and Border Protection who were called into action the night Shahzad was arrested.

    This comment is regarding terrorism in general. Last week we witnessed an unbelievable event on Wall Street as we watched the Dow plummet in one day to an all time historic low, and them seemingly recover like it was nothing without any logical reason. I believe that what we witnessed was a cyber attack of epic proportions. We know that hostile nations have been trying and with some limited success to hack into our national security infrastructure, it is only logical that the next target would be our economic infrastructure. Wall Street and the Fed would never admit to the nation that trillions of our hard earned dollars are at the mercy of cyber attacks.
