WASHINGTON — As an American-born spokesman for Al Qaeda threatens to blow up American embassies abroad, intelligence gleaned from last month's British "doctors' plot" of car bombers suggests that a Qaeda cell is on the loose in the American homeland.
E-mail addresses for American individuals were found on the same password-protected e-mail chains used by the United Kingdom plotters to communicate with Qaeda handlers in Europe, a counterterrorism official told The New York Sun yesterday. The American and German intelligence communities now believe the secure e-mail chains used in the United Kingdom plot have provided a window into an operational Qaeda network in several countries.
"Because of the London and Glasgow plot, we now know communications have been made from Al Qaeda to operatives in the United States," the counterterrorism official said on condition of anonymity. "This plot helps to connect a lot of stuff. We have seen money moving a lot through hawala networks and other illicit finance as well." But this source was careful to say that at this point, no specific information, such as names, targets, or a timeline, was known about any particular plot on American soil. The e-mail addresses that were linked to Americans were pseudonyms.

I don’t doubt it a bit. They are going to do what they will, and since many are willing to die doing it, I have no expectation we will be able to stop them 100% of the time.
We just have to make it as difficult for them as possible.
I don’t doubt it either. If the cops can’t profile, the rest of us can.
Hell, I suspect there are hundreds...
Like this is news???...Just a matter of time.
Yup.
Pedro El Akhbar, Jose Ali Hussein, Juan Mohammad Atta, probably all crawled over the Mexican border. They are in their element in the Southwestern Desert.
Just don’t let me get hold of one of those rat bastards if I spot him...I will gladly beat him to an unrecognizable pulp!
I don't doubt that for a minute. In fact, I expect there are several cells here. And I further suspect that some, if not all, of the cell members entered our country via the Southern border.
If they manage (God forbid!) to pull off a terrorist stunt and it turns out they DID come across the Southern border, I'm gonna be VERY glad I'm not George Bush. The backlash will be ruthless!
There are many bits and pieces of ‘evidence’, such as the numerous reports of Arab men in a truck at the scene, etc, and some woman several years ago even wrote a book concluding Iraq and PLO involvement. Sorry can’t remember her name, she was interviewed on Fox News, very articulate and convincing. I’m sure some other Freepers are experts on it.
Laurie Milroy ?
Jayna Davis,”The Third Terrorist: The Middle East Connection to the Oklahoma City Bombing”
I googled “iraq involvement in terrorist oklahoma city bombing” and all sorts of things come up.
Outrageous headline.
MANY Al Qaeda Cells are formed and forming all over this country. And Islamic Extremists cells not affiliated with Al Qaeda at all. What do they think Mosques are for???
This is news? They make it sound like they haven’t been here, watching, waiting, casing, practicing...
Sheesh...
May be? They even have their own website.
