CIA Warned of Attacks




Mossad warned CIA of attacks - report
By Douglas Davis Jerusalem Post

LONDON (September 17) - Mossad officials traveled to Washington last month
to warn the CIA and the FBI that a cell of up to 200 terrorists was planning
a major operation, according to a report in the Sunday Telegraph here
yesterday. 

The paper said the Israeli officials specifically warned their counterparts
in Washington that "large-scale terrorist attacks on highly visible targets
on the American mainland were imminent." They offered no specific
information about targets, but they did link the plot to Afghanistan-based
terrorist Osama bin Laden, and they told the Americans there were "strong
grounds" for suspecting Iraqi involvement.

A US administration official told the paper that it was "quite credible"
that the CIA did not heed the Mossad warning: "It has a history of being
over-cautious about Israeli information." But the official noted that "if
this is true, then the refusal to take it seriously will mean heads will
roll." ......
