Believe it or not, as you will. I personally think the terrorists are willing, capable, and wouldn't hesitate to mounts such attacks, if they have the means. And we don't know whether they have such weapons or not, from various reports, it appears that they may.

Of course we all hope that their plans will be foiled.

It's an unsafe world we live in.

It is, indeed, an unsafe world.

If this were anybody but DEBKA, I'd be concerned.

I think the most realistic part of this is the hit
squads against Wesern targets.

>>interrogation of the dozens of terrorist suspects in custody revealed that Iraq and Saudi intelligence agents continue to provide the terror cells with operational intelligence, while Saudi institutions and bodies are al Qaeda’s primary source of funds and manpower.

Those Saudis again.....

Say,... where are those thousands of liters of anthrax and botulism toxins, anyway?

Saddam must surely know they won't do him any good stored under some palace until after the attack.

People on the left ask for evidence that Iraq works with the terrorists. This is like asking if ice cream works with apple pie. The left accuse our own "secret agencies" of cooperating with terrorists and committing terror here and abroad, but don't ever stop to think that Iraq is just as capable, if not even that much more likely given their form of government, to be doing exactly what they accuse us of doing.

***U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT: "WORLDWIDE CAUTION Public Announcement" (Click Here Now to read the complete text of this Worldwide Caution notice.) (February 6, 2003) --- A SNIPPET FROM THE WORLDWIDE CAUTION:

~SNIPPET~

"The Department of State reminds Americans that U.S. citizens and interests are at a heightened risk of terrorist attacks, including by groups with links to Al-Qaida. Terrorist actions may include, but are not limited to, suicide operations, assassinations or kidnappings. While conventional weapons such as explosive devices pose a more immediate threat in many areas overseas, terrorist use of non-conventional weapons, including chemical or biological agents must be considered a growing threat. These individuals and groups have proved that they do not distinguish between official and civilian targets. Because security and security awareness have been elevated within the United States, terrorists may target U.S. interests overseas. Private Americans should remain vigilant with regard to their personal security and exercise caution.

Attacks on places of worship and schools, and the murders of private American citizens and other westerners, demonstrate that as security is increased at official U.S. facilities, terrorists and their sympathizers will seek softer targets. These may include facilities where Americans or possibly other foreigners are generally known to congregate or visit, such as residential areas, clubs, restaurants, places of worship, schools, hotels, outdoor recreation events or resorts and beaches. Americans should increase their security awareness when they are at such locations, avoid them, or switch to other locations where Americans in large numbers generally do not congregate. There is a possibility that American citizens may be targeted for kidnapping or assassination."
