Without preamble
U.S. counterterrorism officialshave authenticated a video by an al Qaeda recruiter threatening to smuggle a biological weapon into the United States via tunnels under the Mexico border, the latest sign of the terrorist group’s determination to stage another mass-casualty attack on the U.S. homeland.
The video aired earlier this year as a recruitment tool makes clear that al Qaeda is looking to exploit weaknesses in U.S. border security and also is willing to ally itself with white militia groups or other anti-government entities interested in carrying out an attack inside the United States, according to counterterrorism officials interviewed by The Washington Times.
Fortunately, al Qaeda has not considered working with far left progressive groups, who would be more open to changing the landscape of American life, and have been more then helpful in keeping the southern border open and making it easier for illegals to cross. On the bright side
The officials, who spoke only on the condition they not be named because of the sensitive nature of their work, stressed that there is no credible information that al Qaeda has acquired the capabilities to carry out a mass biological attack although its members have clearly sought the expertise.
The video talks about using four pounds of anthrax, which is not exactly easy to obtain, and control. Perhaps we could provide more control of the southern border so as to avoid any attacks, eh?
