Al Qaeda is planning a mass-casualty attack to rival September 11, but preparations have been disrupted by arrests of terrorists during the past several months, according to U.S. intelligence officials.
Recent intelligence reports indicate that communications among clandestine cells of al Qaeda members are being restored gradually, the intelligence officials said.

"...including assassinations of
prominent people in the United States, the official said.
One wonders whether this includes members of the Hollywood elite....

"Anyone have thoughts on how a person can encourage al qaeda to see hillary! as a prominent citizen?"
The time-honored institution of professional courtesy precludes any problem from her point of view.....

Indeed, another attack will galvanize the public. And it will unite Whites, Hispanics and non-Muslim blacks in strength against these servants of Satan in a way that can not be imagined. Ditto. Woe be unto the idiots that would try another 9-11. You'd be splashing cold water in the face of the *awakening* giant.
I just hope it doesn't take another attack to keep us from dozing off again.

Given their apparent focus on economic targets, one wonders if the list includes Greenspan, Gates, or other well known business leaders. Someone threw a cream pie in Gates' face a few years ago. Makes you wonder how well protected some of these people are. I believe their strategy is above all to create economic chaos.

In case there is anyone that didn't know, Hillary Clinton served on the Board of Directors overseeing Kennametal Inc. Kennametal sold nuclear triggers to Saddam.
Saddam paid for the nuclear triggers from Kennametal with loans from BNL. Some of the loans were guaranteed by the U.S. government. Saddam defaulted on the loans from BNL.

© 1996, American Spectator
By Kenneth R. Timmerman
Document Dated: Nov-01-1996
A former employee of one of the firms exonerated by the Justice Department report now tells The American Spectator that the inquiry may have been papered over for an unsuspected reason. "It wasn't just a Republican scandal, " says Marianne Gasior, a lawyer who worker for Kennametal Inc., a machine-tool-manufacturer located in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. "Hillary Rodham Clinton was directly linked to the network that was involved in a clandestine CIA arms export ring."
Sound incredible? Certainly, the White House thinks so. When we suggested that it sounded a bit odd for an Arkansas governor's wife to be invited in 1990 to join the board of a company that had ties to an alleged arms export network, spokesman Neel Lattimore retorted: "Everything The American Spectator says about Mrs. Clinton is a bit odd, but I'll see if I can get an answer for you." He never did.
Marianne Gasior maintains that the Lafarge Corporation, the U.S. Subsidiary of a French multinational chemicals concern, provided key services for the covert arms export network that supplied Saddam Hussein. To prevent exposure of that secret supply line, and collateral damage to Hillary Clinton-who joined Lafarge board in 1990, just as the arms pipeline was being shut down-Gasior alleges that the justice department was told to bury the investigation.
John Hogan hotly denies this. But investigators from other U.S. government agencies who worked on the case say they were "waved off" whenever they got too close to exposing the direct involvement of the intelligence community in the arms export scheme.
