Recommended Posts

Word is the UK authorities successfully stopped a plot to bring down a dozen-plus airliners flying from the UK to the US.

 

"ne government official said the terrorists had hoped to target flights to major airports in New York, Washington and California, all major summer tourist destinations.

 

Chertoff said the plotters were "getting close to the execution phase."

 

"There were very concrete steps under way to execute all elements of the plan," he said.

 

"They were not yet sitting on an airplane," but were very close to traveling, a senior U.S. counterterrorism official told The Associated Press.

 

A U.S. administration official said the terror plot targeted Continental, United, and American Airlines. It was not immediately clear whether other airlines also were involved.

 

British Home Secretary John Reid said the plotters planned loss of life on "an unprecedented scale."
