al-Qaeda Plots To Hit West

There is an interesting story indicating that al-Qaeda has an active plot to hit the West. The United States knows about it but doesn’t have enough tactical detail to issue a precise warning or raise the threat level, says Vice Admiral (ret.) John Scott Redd, who heads the government’s National Counterterrorism Center. In an interview at his headquarters near Washington, D.C., Redd told Newsweek’s Mark Hosenball and Jeffrey Bartholet that the country is better prepared than ever to counter such threats. But he also believes another successful terror attack on the U.S. homeland is inevitable.

Please take a few moments to read the entire story as it is quite interesting and parellels what many of us believe, and have said or written about in recent weeks. It is not so we can be convinced it is alright to attack another country, (Iran?), but so we can remain vigilant everyday!
