http://www.debka.com/headline.php?hid=478 Al Qaeda terror threat diverts four Israeli cruise ships with 3,500 tourists from S. Turkish port of Alanya to Cyprus August 6, 2005, 12:32 AM (GMT+02:00) The alert was transmitted by Ankara which has imposed a blackout on the investigation. Two vessels anchored Friday night, August 5, under heavy Cypriot guard at Limassol and Larnaca. The location of the fourth has not been revealed. DEBKAfile adds: The Turkish authorities reported that local cells linked to al Qaeda had planned car bomb attacks on the Israeli tourists when they disembarked at the harbor terminal and boarded the buses picking them up for trips. They said al Qaeda and its affiliates had prepared a new offensive against Israeli, Jewish, American and British targets on a scale comparable to the 2003 Istanbul synagogue and British consulate bombings. The Turkish police report 1,000 people in Istanbul alone are on their watch list for suspected al Qaeda connections. ------------------------ Yahoo!
