The women, who may have a "non Arab" appearance and be travelling on Western passports, have been prepared for their missions by the Yemeni group responsible for the operation to blow up an airliner over the United States on Christmas Day.
Details of the bombers emerged just hours after British spy chiefs raised the UK threat state to "severe" amid fears that al-Qaeda was planning a wave of attacks against western targets.
Terror experts within the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre, a unit of MI5, now believe that an attack against the UK is "highly likely".
US law enforcement agents have been told to be on the lookout for female suicide bombers who may attempt to enter the country.
At least two are believed to be connected to al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula which dispatched underwear bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab who tried unsuccessfully to bring down a transatlantic airliner over Detroit.
Richard Clarke, a former chief White House counter terrorism adviser, said: "They have trained women.
"There are others who are still out there who have been trained and who are clean skins – that means people who we do not have a record of, people who may not look like al-Qaeda terrorists, who may not be Arabs, and may not be men."
Security sources said that it was "inevitable" that al-Qaeda would eventually turn to using women with a western appearance to carry out suicide attacks.
Officials said that airliners and all forms of transport could be targeted as well as sports stadiums, ports and power stations.

Women. Can’t live with ‘em; can’t trust ‘em not to try to blow you up.
One has to wonder what additional information the Christmas bomber could have told us about this plot under enhanced interrogation by the CIA.
Al-Qaeda has trained female suicide bombers to attack West,
OMG! I never thought Muslims would want to do such a thing.
Michelle Obomber is loose in the White House!
PING
Any woman married to an Arab Muslim is vulnerable, particularly if he dies or divorces her. If she is a European or American it is awful, as she will have no family there.
She has to leave her children behind with her husband if he divorces her. It is even worse if he dies; as a widow she is vulnerable to threats with no one to protect her or the children. If his family take the children, then they can threaten her.
This lastly may the cases we’re about to see played out. Do this for Al Qaeda, lady. Martyr yourself, and your children will be safe forever.
We’re talkin’ real sickos here, if this is the scenario.
Ever since 9/11 I have suggested to my family members and friends to keep a distance from Muslim women dressed in abbayah, in crowded places such as shopping malls, department and grocery stores.
It is only a matter of time before one will explode.
yes, the old Russian Coochie Bombers...
It worked then. (with some bribery I recall..)
Hamas ran some OP’s like this. Had some Pali Don Juan’s seduce married women and then out them to their husbands/ families. In some cases the husbands would drive their wives to the drop off point for the suicide bombing operations. (Hamas would tell them that blowing themselves and Jews up was the only was they could redeem themselves and family honorblahblahblah)
Of course the global msm tried to make it out like these were women who were driven to do these things by “the occupation”.
My wife and I have had that conversation too. How do you know it’s even a woman under the garb? You don’t. They’re the original stealth fighter/bombers.
I’m suspicious of this claim.
First, the release of this info strikes me as the Obama administration’s attempt to make it look like they DID squeeze useful intelligence out of the Crotch Bomber - before they let him lawyer up.
Second, this alleged intelligence, allegedly squeezed out of the Crotch Bomber (I know, ewww), could well be Al Qaeda disinformation.
I.e., what a great diversion: Get our TSA agents busily scrutinizing pregnant white women, while the real perps breeze through.
Does this mean these “non Arab” in appearance women, are Arabs/Muslims that look like Anglosajon, Teutonic, or Nordic Women? Or are these women which have just shaken hands with a hair dryer and women’s beauty products (like a razor).
Well, great. Thanks for the warning. I’ll keep my eyes open.
There should be no shortage of TSA volunteers to do crotch checks on suspicious blondes.
Oh, I forgot—can’t profile.
Yemen, huh?
So what would it take to obliterate the whole stinking country - one nuclear bomb? Two?
Probably one. But if we send in a second one, just to make sure, who knows - maybe it will malfunction and detonate somewhere to the northwest - say, at Mecca.
