12 trained to set up terror cells in West LONDON, Dec. 23 Al-Qaida has trained 12 Westerners, including nine British Muslims, to set up terror cells in London and other Western capitals, it was reported Saturday. The 12, including two Norwegians and an Australian, were smuggled into Pakistan's mountainous Waziristan region, bordering Afghanistan, for the training in October 2005, The Times of London reported. They are believed to have been under the command of an al-Qaida veteran suspected of training some of the Britons accused in an alleged plot to blow up passenger planes flying to the United States from Britain last summer, the newspaper said. British police have launched an intensive manhunt for the nine unidentified, so-called English brothers.London Police Commissioner Ian Blair cautioned Friday about an unparalleled and growing threat of attack in England. He said the terrorist threat was far graver than any posed during World War II, the Cold War or Irish Republican Army campaigns.
