Al Qaeda Set to Strike? 

Yesterday I mentioned a two-week old report about potential Al Qaeda targets in the U.S.

A FoxNews report today echoes that. According to multiple intelligence officials, raised "chatter" indicates that Al Qaeda could have plans to strike the U.S. this Summer.

The intelligence does not include a time, place or method of attack but is among the most disturbing received by the government since the Al Qaeda attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the official said.

"There is clearly a steady drumbeat of information that they are going to attack and hit us hard," said another senior federal counterterrorism official, who described the intelligence as highly credible.
I'd be lying if I said this didn't put a little bit of a damper on the upcoming Holiday weekend.
