Speaking at a counterterror briefing for both civilian and law enforcement officials, Director of Intelligence Analysis Rebecca Weiner said the Queens venue was suggested as a target in the most recent edition of Inspire, the English-language online publication of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
