Al Qaeda's summer "surprise"

ABC News:

A secret U.S. law enforcement report, prepared for the Department of Homeland Security, warns that al Qaeda is planning a terror "spectacular" this summer, according to a senior official with access to the document.

"This is reminiscent of the warnings and intelligence we were getting in the summer of 2001," the official told ABCNews.com.

U.S. officials have kept the information secret, and Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said today on ABC News' "This Week with George Stephanopoulos" that the United States did not have "have any specific credible evidence that there's an attack focused on the United States at this point."

As ABCNews.com reported, U.S. law enforcement officials received intelligence reports two weeks ago warning of terror attacks in Glasgow and Prague, the Czech Republic, against "airport infrastructure and aircraft."

The warnings apparently never reached officials in Scotland, who said this weekend they had received "no advance intelligence" that Glasgow might be a target.

That al Qaeda wants to attack the US should not be considered news. That is a constant desire since at least 1998. The report suggest no time, place or method of attack, which is also similar to the intelligence before 9-11. If they do attack, it will be bad news for Democrats who have been trying to diminish the threat for months now. That is why the lefty bloggers are either ignoring the Brit attacks are making fun of their failure. If they do have a spectacular attack, perhaps we will have another short period of "everything changed" before liberals revert to form and start blaming America.
