More financial institutions than previously disclosed may be at risk of attack and an Al Qaeda operative has told British intelligence that the groups target date is early September, intelligence sources said yesterday.
The operative, described as credible by British intelligence, told his debriefers that the attack would take place '60 days before the US presidential election' on November 2, according to a former National Security Council official.
On September 2 President Bush is expected to address the Republican National Convention at Madison Square Garden.
Counter terrorism officials are analyzing data from a computer siezed in Pakistan last month to see if financial instutions in addition to the five disclosed last Sunday are at risk of attack, US officials said yesterday.
A US official familiar with the ongoing analysis of the computer said, 'There are reference to other buildings in the Al Qaeda computer data including a picture of the Bank of America building in San Francisco. 'There is mention of other places.'

"They would try. However, here in the US, a terrorist attack would only swing more voters to W."
...........in droves.
I'm taking this private, so as not to bug everyone else with our little semantics argument.
I've thought that for a long long time.
I can tell you one thing. There will be many people..many people..who will, should this happen, meticulously take out one by one, every leftist traitor, including presstitutes and socialist politicians...because all of these traitors will have been DIRECTLY to blame for inciting such an evil act.
Not everyone in this country is a PC mouse hiding behind the wall in fear of the tyrants.
Welcome to Civil War revisited.
Just my prediction...pray for the safety of our President and his family. In Jesus' name.
Methinks you just nailed the date and the target.
Sounds like we'll need an Ohio fully loaded with MIRVed Tridents. It just so happens we have a few floating around.
Would this violate CFR? Somebody tell McCain.
She wouldn't vote for Bush if he was the Messiah.
What about if he were the second coming of Karl Marx? :-)
That's really bad timing for me. Can we reschedule to, like, 'never'?
Could you imagine the message we would send if 50,000 Freepers showed up in New York on a citizen patrol? Wake up America!!
Good job, and thanks. :-)

Gore was running for Clinton's third term - he was defeated.
Pelosi, Bonoir and the usual suspects had a big meet today with CAIR and other front orgs. moaning about profiling, sweeps, etc. of Muslims, and introducing legislation banning same and weakining the Patriot Act. She did praise diversity though!
Sounds like Bush needs to seal the borders up.
Why don't you tell us how to get that done?
I can tell you how to seal up the borders... Land mines, full deployment of national guard troops on the borderS both north and south. Also, I would go with the electrified border idea from the Coneheads... lol
With 20 megatons, you can afford to be a couple of seconds off;)
I think they did come in legally from Canada (not sure though).
Of course there were so many loopholes with student visas that it was really easy to get in.
Just how hard would it be to bribe a border guard to look the other way. Or, they could use terrorist tactics of kidnapping and "make" them look the other way.
Don't mean to be negative but we all know that any of our solutions could very easily be overcome. So, we spend tons of money to protect our borders, they bribe a guard and get in. We spend tons on soldier salaries and benefits, they buy one or plant their own people.
I wish I knew the "coordinates of Mecca" cuz I'd be freeping the terrorists website with them 24-7. Am computer illiterate though... any takers?
