Tuesday, October 14, 2003
WASHINGTON — Federal authorities are warning that terrorists may be poised for attacks in the United States, according to a bulletin released Friday and obtained by Fox News.
...The exact timing, targets and locations of the possible attacks are unknown. Some reports indicate that a large attack could follow a series of smaller operations in the Middle East and South Asia.
The bulletin also states that al Qaeda continues to develop plans for using aircraft against targets in the U.S.
In a recent interview with The Associated Pres, a top intelligence official suggested that al Qaeda was planning another big attack.
"We have received a lot of good information from these detainees over the past several weeks and corroborated the fact there were active plans, ongoing, to conduct another attack in the United States," William H. Parrish, a top intelligence official with the Homeland Security Department (search), told the AP.
"This attack as they indicated was probably going to be multiple attacks, simultaneous," he said....
..."Al Qaeda has always been focused and committed to the spectacular attacks," Parrish said. "The individual suicide bomber, although certainly within (bin Laden's) grasp to be able to execute, may not fit into that strategy."...

It's just being reiterated. It was listed as "Breaking News" on Foxnews.com.
It goes on and on and on.

I guess that came out wrong from my end. Lack of sleep does thing to you. I wasn't saying "told you so". I was trying to say that the site I listed before had broke the story a week earlier. Here is the link again for those that missed it:

Follow the link near the top under the heading:
12 October 2003: Part 1: Analysis by Associate Director Jill St. Claire for the latest intel. Everyone who has some time to kill should go and look about that site and see what may be in the works.
