With the State Department having issued, a week and a half ago, a worldwide warning regarding possible terrorist threats during millennium celebrations plus the arrest over the past weekend of a man charged with carrying bomb making materials at the U.S.-Canadian border, U.S. officials are on high alert.

Jim Lehrer led a discussion with experts on possible terrorist threats on his PBS program, the JIM LEHRER REPORT, on the evening of December 20.

"Despite the heightened alert that U.S. Customs agents have put on every port of entry into the United States, officials say terrorists may be planning a millennium attack on American citizens," according to Spencer Michels of PBS.

White House National Security Advisor Sandy Berger was quoted as having said on CBS-TV's "Face the Nation" interview program Sunday that "Americans should be vigilant, as they go about their plans for the New Year's, if they see something suspicious, see packages or activities that they think are unusual, they should obviously let law enforcement people know." Berger added that the U.S. is not aware at this point of other specific threats against particular targets.
