Intel says second, third waves of attacks planned |
2001-10-21 |
More than a month after the September terror attacks, the United States and its close allies are still intercepting communications among Osama bin Laden's associates and are convinced more attacks are coming, intelligence officials in several countries say. While American officials have been warning of another attack, the foreign intelligence officials stress that they base their analysis and conclusions on what their own agencies have gathered and not on intelligence they are getting from the United States. In interviews over the past week, intelligence officials in six countries in the Middle East and Europe said they were unsure where to expect the attacks or whether they would be with explosives or with chemical or biological weapons. But they said their intercepts and other tools convinced them that a second and possibly a third wave of attacks were planned. |
