U.S. law enforcement officials received intelligence reports two weeks ago warning of a possible terror attack in Glasgow against "airport infrastructure or aircraft," a senior US law enforcement officials tells the Blotter on ABCNews.com.
The intelligence reports also warned that airports and aircraft in the Czech Republic could be the targets of al Qaeda-connected terrorists.
The warnings were kept secret for operational reasons, according to officials. In public, the White House and Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff have continued to maintain they know of no specific or credible threats involving the United States, even though the intelligence reports specify US aircraft as possible targets.
A US official told ABCNews.com that the intelligence reports led to the assignment of Federal Air Marshals to flights into and out of both Glasgow and Prague.
Air marshals had been added to flights into and out of Germany late last month, based on similar warnings.
lol again!
You’re very funny today.
A dig on the French is still Apropo...LOL
A: He doesn't wan't them (or us) riled up about our "immigrant communities".
Maybe Jorge Boosh, our worst president since Hoover, really did know what was going down on 9/11 and decided not to act. It's total speculation, but from the trends and historical facts, it's not aimless.
Sniff, Sniff
"Propane Is Not A Toy,,,Yep."...;0)
>>I think the one being burned was screaming “Aloe, Aloe, Aloe!”<<
lmao!!!
You brought that with you from DU?
How do you know he didn't?
"Don`t shoot! Let them burn!"
This will not meet with the US MSM's reporting rules of engagement.
Nope, unfortunately, I brought it from Free Republic.
Nah! Just separation between Church and State. Nutin’ to see here...
So what?
I would be upset if the administration or intelligence sources DID reveal publicly what they know. Some things just need to be kept quiet and handled behind the scenes.
Three FAILED bombings in the past two days.
Specific and credible threat: My buddy and I are going to light our car on fire and then smash it into the Glasgow airport, and here’s the image of our pathetic bombs.
A rumor: Watch the news when the full moon comes in Glasgow! Praise Allah!
The US heard, likely from the Brits, that there was possibly an attack coming on an airport, and took action based on the level of intelligence (assigning air marshals to these flights.) What more is the US supposed to do?
He was calling out to Al Gore: “Uh,Al, uh Al, uh Al...”
This allah guy they keep talking to should be arrested and interrogated.
Please disregard. Totally stupid comment from an apparent dimwit.
