"CNN: Subway threat originated in Iraq"

A previously reliable source tipped authorities to a terror plot involving 15 to 20 people, one official said.

The source of the information had trained at a terrorist camp in Afghanistan and passed parts of a polygraph test, the official said.

The threat mentioned Friday and Sunday as possible dates, the official added.

The tipster in Iraq failed some sections of the polygraph test, but passed the section pertaining to the information about the New York threat, the official said.

That information, sources said, led to a military operation Wednesday night in Musayyib, about 45 miles south of Baghdad, where, military officials said, three al Qaeda suspects were arrested.
