| Interpol sez terrorist threat has not lessened since 2001 |
| 2005-02-27 |
| Interpol says the threat from Al Qaida has not eased since the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. Interpol director Ronald Noble said Al Qaida continues to plan major attacks on the West. Noble said that despite its losses Al Qaida has been planning strikes with chemical and biological weapons. "The terrorist threat is as real today as in 2001 when Sept. 11 occurred," Noble said. "The number of terrorist attacks that have occurred around the world and the evidence that has been seized revealing the kind of planning that Al Qaida has done in the area of biological weapons or chemical weapons is enough evidence for me to be concerned about it." In an interview with the British Broadcasting Corp. on Feb. 22, Noble said Interpol has urged its members to plan a defense for an Al Qaida biological attack. In March, the agency has scheduled a conference of police and health officials in Lyons, France. |

| #1 The "Threat" never drops, but quality and quantity of execution does. |
