FBI investigating threats against Goldman Sachs
Jul 6, 2007, 17:35 GMT
Washington - US authorities were investigating a threat against global investment bank Goldman Sachs on Friday after handwritten threats were mailed to newspapers across the country.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation, postal inspectors and the Joint Terrorism Task Force were investigating the incident, Bloomberg financial news reported.
The threats reportedly said: 'Hundreds will die. We are inside. You cannot stop us.' They were signed with the initials AQUSA.
Goldman Sachs said in a statment that law enforcement authorities did not believe the threats were credible, but stressed that they were taking the situation seriously.
'We have a broad range of security measures in place to counter all likely threats and we're monitoring the situation closely,' Goldman Sachs spokesman Michael DuVally said.
Goldman Sachs has offices in 46 cities and about 28,000 employees.

Geeee people really don't know about this world-bank..Why do they want to blow it up.....Go on the net and take a look at how many countries they did, and still are trying to over-throw.............They have a lot of people and governments very upset. They have their people on the governments banking commission to benefit the super rich and have given the Clinton's money to keep the loop holes open, remember the Enron thing, they had many hands in it........................We are also borrowing money from them to run our government which comes with strings attached. You know the rest of the story..............Israel !!!!
Yes, because terror cannot possibly happen unless there are demands...
Handwritten threats? HANDWRITTEN?! That was truly stupid, Ferox. You are in a heap of trouble now, boy.
To live from: They the FBI ought to be investigating Sachs for all the Foreign Governments they have overthrow-en. They are also on the US Central Banking Committee to make sure some the money they loan us to run our government, goes to Israels War Machine......Soon Sachs will tell us to go into Iran and take out their Nukes, we have to or they will no longer loan us money to run our government. Money is like oil to the US government they can't run with out it..Depression time around the corner. Did you check out their web sight ? They have a slick P.R. campaign.....Putting a needle in a black child. Sub-saying you take our meaning our money our laws or your going to die...

since there were no demands the threats are probably not credible. But keep in mind Goldman-Sachs was housed in the World Trade Center and lost a number of employees on 9/11.
