This part of the alert news report caught my eye this morning.
"While the government has worried for years that al Qaeda may try to get its hands on chemical, biological or radiological weapons — CBS News has learned that it is a recent bomb plot in Saudi Arabia that has them truly worried. The plot illuminated a new tactic to attack large fortified public-like buildings. Terrorists planned to use two truck bombs — one to blow up outside defenses — a second to drive through the opening — and take down the building."
I also heard on last nights local news that all 3 of our hospitals are having a bio/terror drill today!!
Also on Los Angeles news last night they reported a large quantity of pesticide type chemical stolen in Ventura Co. I can't find an article about it.....still searching.
