then you could be a potential target for investigation.
If the Boston PD had done this would the terrorists have been known?

NYPD designates mosques as terrorism organizations.

The New York Police Department has secretly labeled entire mosques as terrorist organizations, a designation that allows police to use informants to record sermons and spy on imams, often without specific evidence of criminal wrongdoing.

Designating an entire mosque as a terrorism enterprise means that anyone who attends prayer services there is a potential subject of an investigation and fair game for surveillance.

Since the 9/11 attacks, the NYPD has opened at least a dozen "terrorism enterprise investigations" into mosques, according to interviews and confidential police documents. The TEI, as it is known, is a police tool intended to help investigate terrorist cells and the like.

Was there any evidence that the hijackers attended a mosque in NYC, or any where in the USA?

 
If the answer is no, this policy doesn't seem practical. I can see why LE advocates profiling on what ever bases. I don't necessarily agree with the policy of profiling on principals of freedom.

U.S. officials say that as imam at a mosque in Falls Church, Virginia (2001–02), which had 3,000 members, al-Awlaki spoke with and preached to three of the 9/11 hijackers, who were al-Qaeda members. In 2001, he presided at the funeral of the mother of Nidal Malik Hasan, an Army psychiatrist who later e-mailed him extensively in 2008–09 before the Fort Hood shootings. During al-Awlaki's later radical period after 2006–07, when he went into hiding, he was associated with Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Nigerian who attempted the 2009 Christmas Day bombing of an American airliner. Al-Awlaki was allegedly involved in planning the latter's attack.

One might think with this man and his son being killed, the threat of Islamic Jihad in America would be a thing of the past? ;)

and after attacks on the Tube.

I don’t disagree because great many Mosques are used to spread fanaticism and world domination. Like Christianity, Islam also believes in conversion.

Most of the Muslims ancestors were converted by force by the marauding Islamic army. History is full of forced Islamic conversion and Life or Death is the choice in this case.
