Terror threat to 'crowded areas' (Nationwide Warning in UK)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1538138/posts
SCOTLAND YARD has issued a nationwide alert that Islamist terrorist cells may be plotting a Christmas bombing campaign. The warning was distributed to police chiefs nine days ago by the Yards anti-terrorist branch. It follows a series of operations by police and MI5 aimed at disrupting possible attacks by terrorists linked to Al-Qaeda.
The latest warning was sent to the chief constables of the 51 forces in Britain on December 2. It said there was evidence to suggest that Islamist terrorists were planning to carry out bomb attacks against crowded areas such as shopping centres, football grounds and train stations.
Senior officers say the alert is not routine and are to increase patrols and searches of potential suspects.
They'll have to call it a 'Holiday' bombing campaign here in the US because the word, 'Christmas' is verboten.
