Militants warned attack was coming

LONDON - Militant Islamic groups sympathetic to the Al-Qaeda warned of an attack in 
Kenya
one week ago on Internet chat rooms and in e-mails, according to a Muslim cleric.

'Militant groups who sympathise with Al-Qaeda warned one week ago that there would be
an attack on Kenya, and they mentioned Israelis,' said Sheikh Omar Bakri Muhammad, the
leader of the radical London-based al Muhajiroun group, and a supporter of Osama bin
Laden.

'They said in chat rooms that there would be something good in East Africa, that a 
heavy
price would be paid.'

He said militants who spoke of the attack had not identified themselves but said they 
were
Mujahideen (Islamic fighters) who supported Al-Qaeda.

'They were taking part in discussions and they sent e-mails,' he said.

Meanwhile, British Foreign Minister Jack Straw has condemned vehemently the attacks on
Israelis in Kenya, saying there was no justification for such acts of terrorism.

'We have to be alive to the fact that there are appalling terrorists around the world, 
well-
organised and sadly well equipped, capable of perpetrating this kind of outrage, and 
that is
what they have done today,' he said. --Reuters, AP
