Saturday, March 1, 2003 GLOBAL JIHAD Report: Islamists planning 'large attack' Assault on American targets to coincide with Iraq action Posted: March 1, 2003 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2003 WorldNetDaily.com Islamist sources in London say terror network al-Qaida is preparing "a large attack" against American targets that will coincide with the expected U.S. war against Iraq, reports the London-based Saudi daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat. According to the report, which was translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute, the sources refused to reveal the precise location of the attack, but said it is expected to take place in Asia. The story is similar to one reported by WorldNetDaily this week that an Islamist website is predicting an imminent terror attack against the U.S. The site published a religious exhortation on Monday claiming that "the train of death is on its way" within 10 days. The report in the Saudi paper said that a "London Islamist referred to an electronic message he received from Asia which calls for the glad tidings [Istibshar] of a forthcoming new operation by al-Qaida." The Islamist said the operation could be against U.S. military forces in Afghanistan, the purpose being "to mess up" American plans and to "incite Islamists everywhere to carry out suicide activities against the Americans at the outbreak of the war against Iraq." According to the report, the attack will be "huge and no small [sic] than the Sept. 11 operation." Sources said that terror leader Osama bin Laden will participate "only in [the operation's] funding." The sources reportedly told the paper that participants in future terror acts may not necessarily be "direct members of al-Qaida," but rather could simply be in agreement with bin Laden's principles. "It is likely that bin Laden has provided them with financial support without necessarily connecting them with al-Qaida," the report said. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
