Syria Tells Troops to Be Ready for Battle
(Full Story)

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has placed his military on full alert, citing "regional challenges", and vowed to continue supporting the "Palestinian and Lebanese resistance more than ever".

In a speech to mark the Syrian Army national day, Mr Assad said the volatile situation across the Middle East required "vigilance, preparation and readiness" and ordered all units of the armed forces to be on alert.

The comments were interpreted by Israel as a morale booster to the Syrian armed forces and not a call to battle. Israeli intelligence chiefs have assessed that Syria is not in the mood for an open war and is instead content to resupply Hezbollah guerillas in Lebanon.

Cell Phones: FBI Says No Connection To Terrorism

The Associated Press out of Caro is now reporting that the FBI says there is no threat to the Mackinac Bridge and that there is no information that directly links the men to terrorism.

Special Agent in Charge Daniel D. Roberts says that the FBI has been working with local authorities from Caro and the State Police. In a press release issued August 14th he stated that local investigation continues even though the FBI has deamed there is no threat to the Mackinac Bridge and no direct connection to terrorism

It was revealed over the weekend that the goal of an alleged terror plot, uncovered in Mid-Michigan, was apparently to hit the Mackinac Bridge. The plot was revealed in an announcement by the Tuscola County Prosecutor.

This new information comes two days after the three men from Texas were charged by Tuscola County Prosecutor Mark Reene for allegedly targeting the five mile long suspension bridge connecting Michigan's two peninsulas.

Day of terror strikes was planned for August 16

(Is it an Elvis thang?)

Terrorists were planning to unleash a series of deadly mid-air explosions on flights between London and America on August 16, it has been revealed today.

Members of the terror group, who were arrested in a series of raids by anti-terror police yesterday, were due to mount a dry run today to check if they could smuggle components for liquid explosives through Britain's airports.

United Airline tickets dated next Wednesday were found by police at the home of one of the raided addresses.
