"A small bomb caused minor damage to an empty military recruiting station in Times Square early Thursday, shaking guests in hotel rooms high above 'the crossroads of the world.'

"'If it is something that's directed toward American troops than it's something that's taken very seriously and is pretty unfortunate,' said Army Capt. Charlie Jaquillard, who is the commander of Army recruiting in Manhattan.

"'Whoever the coward was that committed this disgraceful act on our city will be found and prosecuted to the full extent of the law,' Mayor Michael Bloomberg said. 'We will not tolerate such attacks.'"

I hope the perpetrator is caught and punished. That is despicable.

I think any bombing should be taken very seriously. Anyway I think by them doing it in the night it must of been just a statement by anti-war protestors. They should be arrested , that is going way too far.
