A senior intelligence official said Tuesday evening that the testimony was based in part on new evidence that Qaeda operatives in Pakistan were training Westerners, most likely including American citizens, to carry out attacks. The official said there was no indication as yet that Al Qaeda had succeeded in getting operatives into the United States.
The testimony, in an annual assessment of the threats facing the United States, was the latest indication that Al Qaeda appears to have significantly rebuilt a network battered by the American invasion of Afghanistan after the Sept. 11 attacks.
While things are getting tight for al Qaeda at home, they appear to have kick-started the greatest threat to us, the ability to infiltrate the west with crazy jihadis who look and act just like us.
Not good.
This ain't good one bit. I have my Go Bags ready to go.
