DJ FBI/Terror Alert -2: Attack May Come Early As Tuesday
WASHINGTON (AP)--The FBI issued an extraordinary terrorist alert Monday night, asking law enforcement and the American public to be on the lookout for a Yemeni man and several associates who might be plotting a terrorist attack as early as Tuesday.
The FBI scrambled to put the warning out after information emerged that one or more people were involved. Officials said the intelligence, while deemed credible, was not specific about possible targets.
The alert identified one possible attacker as Fawaz Wahya al-Rabeei, a Yemeni national born in Saudia Arabia in 1979. It listed about a dozen associates of al-Rabeei.
"Who's there?"
..."Pizza".
"Hey, I didn't order pizza...."
...knock knock....
"Flowers...."
His coif is perfect....but be careful of the nail files.
Be ESPECIALLY leery if these people happen to flash a driver's license from Tennessee.
This wouldn't be a "Yumpin' Yemeni" man, would it?
BTW, just in case anyone is wondering, that is NOT a pic the DOJ released... ;0)
Be on the lookout!!!!

Last time I said something like that, my wife accused me of being drunk.
The bureau planned to put photos and information on a Web site to help Americans identify the possible perpetrators.
"Recent information indicates a planned attack may occurred in the United States or against U.S. interests on or around Feb. 12, 2002. One or more operatives may be involved in the attack," the alert to 18,000 law enforcement agencies said.
The alert asked police "to stop and detain" any of the named individuals in alert and that all "should be considered extremely dangerous."
Law enforcement officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the alert was prompted by recent information from interviews of detainees in Afghanistan and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where several al-Qaida operatives are being held.
Please take it in stride, but with a bit less levity...please? No telling where these jackals may try to murder innocent Americans.
There you go again: Trying to complicate things.
Just pipe down and keep your eyes peeled for a 23-year old male who looks distinctly Yemeni.
Ok, boys, don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes.
Notice she's still sporting the American Flag pin on her lapel..........unlike NBC's peacock, to name one.
