Official: No credible terror domestic terror threats in U-S since war

Sources say the nation will probably remain on high alert for the duration of hostilities with Iraq even if no evidence surfaces of an impending terrorist attack.

Authorities are convinced there exists a "hidden network of cold-blooded killers," as Attorney General John Ashcroft recently put it.

But they acknowledge being pleasantly surprised that the war has not so far triggered a response by terror groups or so-called "lone wolf" extremists.

I just copied the title. I saw the double "terror", but I forgot to edit it.
