It has been revealed that al-Qaeda had been preparing for a missile
attack on Incirlik Air Base putting the base on high alert.

The Air base commander has been setting up security systems to avoid
possible attacks and has sought help from the Turkish Police
Department and National Intelligence Organization (MIT), reports say.
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director Porter Goss sent the second
crypto about the action plan of al-Qaeda to the Turkish intelligence
authorities after his visit to Ankara. 

The first crypto informed that al-Qaeda was sending radioactive
substances to determine locations via cargo companies. The CIA
cautioned Turkish intelligence authorities about the action plan
against Incirlik Air Base. The message was sent last week via the
Turkish Foreign Ministry. The crypto writes al-Qaeda militants are
preparing to sabotage the Incirlik Air Base, located in the Southern
city of Adana, with a human propelled highly destructive missile. 

Ankara, alarmed by the crypto, informed MIT Undersecretary,
Gendarmerie Headquarters, and Security General Directorate. The
gendarmes, who guard the region, have taken emergency measures around
the American base against missile attacks. MIT and police units began
multifaceted operations in Adana. The intelligence units had uncovered
another action plan of al-Qaeda against Incirlik Air Base. Police
intelligence had found out the organization was preparing to attack
the base with a hijacked plane.
