Threat Condition Delta
ABC News
W A S H I N G T O N, Oct. 23 � ABCNEWS has learned that U.S.
military personnel in three critical locations have been put on
the very highest state of alert after being warned of potential
terrorist attacks.
At the U.S. Air Force installation at Incirlik, Turkey,
officials say �credible� and �specific� warnings have been
received. The level of credibility about the warning is so high,
that �even the Turks believe it,� one source told ABCNEWS,
indicating the threat was very visible and believable.
Details surrounding the warnings are being closely held, but
officials say the information generally involves surveillance of
U.S. personnel and plans for a specific attack. The threat has
grown in the last few days following initial concerns last week
when U.S. military personnel said they were under surveillance.
Officials are particularly concerned that the base at Incirlik is
a potential target because it is from that base that Operation
Northern Watch is conducted over Iraq. About 3,400 Air Force
personnel participate in that monitoring of the northern �no fly�
zone over Iraq � a mission that would make the base a logical
target for the terrorist network said to be headed by Osama bin
Laden. The network has the avowed goal of forcing the U.S.
military to leave the region.
Schools Closed
In the Persian Gulf nations of Bahrain and Qatar, U.S. military
forces have now been put on the very highest state of alert,
known as �Threat Condition Delta.� This alert condition is
imposed on forces in two circumstances: when a terrorist attack
has occurred, or intelligence has been received that action
against a specific location is likely.
In Bahrain, there are just fewer 1,000 military personnel
assigned to the headquarters for the U.S. Central Command�s
naval component. In Qatar, there are fewer than 100 U.S.
military personnel who run an equipment depot, also on the
highest state of alert.
Concern is so high in both Persian Gulf nations that the local
international schools have been closed due to fears they could be
targets. These schools are run for the children of U.S.
military personnel as well as dozens of children from families of
embassy delegations.
Officials are still trying to verify the threats against forces
in Bahrain and Qatar. The information includes plans against
U.S. military targets and even details that terrorists may have
�identified� locations of explosives in the region that they
could use in an attack.
