A pro-ISIS twitter account has threatened attacks at London Heathrow, LAX and New York's JFK airports over the July 4 holiday weekend.

The account said that attacks would be carried out on planes 'flying from Heathrow [Airport] to the US' and warned that 'there will be a device placed in either Heathrow, LAX or JFK airports.'

The threat was revealed by SITE Intelligence Group - the world's leading non-governmental counterterrorism organization - on its website.

Anyone can make a threat. No one is safe from the  :nometalk:  who actually carry them out. They'll threaten LAX, JFK and LHR, but then when the bombs go off at ORD, ATL or IAH, everyone will act surprised and say it must have been a lone wolf.

I'm flying from JFK to Heathrow this weekend. But what can you do? Just take your chances, really.
