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.

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.I'd be lying if I said this didn't put a little bit of a damper on the upcoming Holiday weekend.
"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.
