Even the world's most powerful nation is frightened by only the possibility of an attack in its own territory...
Poor Uncle Sam...hehehehehe!!!
The Bush administration yesterday put the United States on a high state alert, saying it had picked up credible intelligence of a possible terrorist attack "that could either rival or exceed" September 11.
It was unclear last night whether the decision to raise the state of alert was connected to a broadcast on Friday on the Arabic television network al-Jazeera - the station aired an audio tape of a statement attributed to Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's deputy and an Egyptian-born al-Qaida strategist.
"We are still chasing the Americans and their allies everywhere, even in their homeland," Mr al-Zawahiri said on the tape.
