"The U.S. security agency also warned scuba gear operators, owners and training companies to be on the look out for individuals or groups that have money but no visible means of support."

The Department of Homeland Security has issued a bulletin warning that terrorists may attack American ships or ports using scuba divers.

I, for one, have no intention to change plans for departing on a cruise this weekend.
Will also fly cross country to get to the port.
I thumb my nose (and other rude gestures) at Al Qaeda!

"Because swimmers traditionally target a ship's screws and rudders in order to incapacitate a ship, periodically cycle rudders and rotate propellers at high RPMs," states the alert.

I guess I'd better install underwater floodlights in my pool.

Can't be too careful.

Didn't they already warn us of this?

February 12, 2003
There are "disturbing signs" the terror network has a solid presence in Iran and Iraq, and is taking refuge in Pakistan and Afghanistan, the CIA director said. It's also refining new means of attacks, such as surface-to-air missiles, poisons and underwater missiles to attack underwater targets "to achieve multiple objectives, striking prominent landmarks, inflicting mass casualties," and causing economic strife, he said.

And on May 25, 2002
FBI field offices will contact officials at industries they believe might be the most vulnerable to an underwater attack, including atomic power stations, which draw reactor cooling water from nearby waterways.
The Coast Guard also notified all major ports and shipping lines, as well as the power, cruise ship and pipeline industries, U.S. Coast Guard spokesman Cmdr. Jim McPherson said.
Since September 11, FBI investigators asked dive training industry officials for the names of all people who had been trained in the use of sophisticated "rebreathers," one industry official said.

I've seen this story about 4 times in the last 18 months. Why do they float it out regularly?

That's nothing new. They went around to all the dive shops in Sring of '02 asking if any suspicous people had been buying gear or taking diving lessons.
