Pakistani Taliban promise US attacks post-NY scare

ISLAMABAD— The Pakistani Taliban promise future attacks on major US cities and appear to claim responsibility for an attempted car bombing in New York in three separate videos that surfaced after the weekend scare, monitoring groups said Monday.
US authorities have played down the potential connection between the Pakistani militant network and the car bomb attempt in New York's Times Square, saying the group does not have the global infrastructure to carry out such a strike.
