ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A message posted on an Islamic Web site claims that “suicide attacks” will be launched against Americans in Bahrain, including the U.S. Navy’s 5th Fleet headquarters, the Associated Press reported on Thursday.

The statement claims to be from the Bahrain Branch of Ansar al-Islam, according to the report. The radical Islamist organization consists of Iraqi Kurds and Arabs who want to create an independent Islamic state in Iraq.

The U.S. State Department has listed it as a terrorist group with between 700 and 1,000 members. Al-Qaida is suspected of funding and supporting the group."
