Al Qaeda planning attacks in Pakistan
2005-05-09
Pakistani intelligence agencies have uncovered Al Qaeda plans targeting President Musharraf, the US and other embassies and high commissions in Pakistan during May and June. Reports given to the Interior Ministry stated that Al Qaeda operatives were planning rocket and car bomb attacks against the president, western and Pakistani targets and other diplomatic missions in Islamabad and provincial capitals, sources told Daily Times. Al Qaeda had hired the services of three people to buy the rockets from the tribal areas, sources added. The reports said Al Qaeda was reportedly hiring people for suicide attacks against the president and western diplomats, sources said.
"Hey, Mahmoud! You up for a suicide attack?"
"Yeah. What's it pay?"
"A thousand bucks, cash-on-delivery."
"Hokay, I'm in."
"I knew I could count on you, Mahmoud. You can pick up your check when you've finished."
