The FBI warned UK security chiefs that Manchester jihadi Salman Abedi was plotting an attack in Britain, an inside source has claimed. MI5 were warned in January by the U.S. intelligence service that Abedi was part of a North African terror cell planning to strike a political target in Britain according to the source, the Mail on Sunday reports.
A U.S. investigation into the Manchester bombers links to terror groups in Libya brought the information to light, and U.S. security services placed Abedi on a watchlist identifying key terror suspects in 2016.
In early 2017 the FBI told MI5 that Abedi belonged to a North African terror gang based in Manchester, which was looking for a political target in this country, the source said.
Following this US tip-off, Abedi and other members of the gang were scrutinised by MI5.
It was thought at the time that Abedi was planning to assassinate a political figure.
But nothing came of this investigation and, tragically, he slipped down the pecking order of targets.
Information on the attack emerged from intelligence on the Manchester attacker sourced in Libya, where his family is linked to terror groups, and from the interception of Abedis communications by U.S. federal agents, according to the Mail on Sunday.
The claim will pile more pressure on MI5 to reveal when they became aware of the Manchester bomber and why the British security agency failed to take further action.
Security service sources this week revealed that five terror plots were foiled between the Westminster attack in March, where Islamist Khalid Masood ran down a number of pedestrians and stabbed a police constable to death outside the Palace of Westminster, killing five, and the Manchester bombing.

They shoulda just invoked the three S’s.
Shoot, shovel, shutup.
Before she became prime minister Theresa May was Home Secretary, directly responsible for this sort of stuff and of course they didn’t do anything about it. It’s why she hates the leaks. She’s in an election campaign and this can be tied directly to her inaction.
My family was British up until my generation and I don’t mind saying that the UK thinks they are still a world power but are, in fact, a shadow of their former selves. They have a significant ‘asian’ population that’s a clear threat to the rest of the population and their culture (asian is their way of hiding the fact that they’re muslim).
The UK government aristocracy was too busy sucking up to their new muslim masters to give a shit.
The muslims and limeys have a history. Ask the Israelis about British influence in the ME.
Like a large part of our CIA/FBI/NSA, the British MI5/MI6/Scotland Yard are a bunch of clown acts. Just from the public disclosures and failures, you see that the British agencies are populated by queers, freaks, perverts, pedophiles, communists, traitors and worst of all NWO globalists.
One of Hillary’s Libyan terrorist freedom fighters.
Manchester bombers father....Ramadan Abedi....in Tripoli Libya May 24 2017...he was arrested in the Libyan capital..... He apparently had been working in Tripoli as the administrative manager for 'the main militia' in the city....Libya is Isis main base in North Africa....Libyan sources say the name Abedi is a variation of Obeidi the name of one of Libya's largest tribes..
Thanks for the correction folks!...Gotta love Freepers!....
Don’t post it...wrong guy....
Well thanks to Freepers it’s not his father...however it IS Hillary shaking hands with a Libyan Muslim Brotherhood individual ...
And whilst you're at it, do try to find some for real stuff on the American Bund!
Reagan was wrong; what he did, opened the doors, wide, for other groups, less deserving ones.
Wanna REALLY talk about "American values", do ya? Well, time was, this nation did NOT take in UNDESIRABLES, willy-nilly and should there be a slip-up, they did get thrown out or tried and jailed/executed.
Happy dhimmutiude; bozo.
That's not quite right. Anti-terror legislation was extended and strengthened repeatedly during May's six years as Home Secretary, most recently in the Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015. She was, however, repeatedly stymied by the courts' interpretations of human rights legislation.
There is no mystery about the Bund. Or the treatment of Germans in WWI.
