HUGE: Saudis Foil "Enormous" AQ Plot--Just In Time
Over 170 arrested in Saudi Al Qaeda plot to strike oil installations both within and outside the Kingdom. Also found were lots of explosives and a reported $32 Million in cash (ouch!).
If this attack had been successful it would have been devastating to World Oil Markets and could have potentially sent the American and other Western economies into a huge tailspin. This would have been really, really bad. Reports also indicate the AQ plot may have connections to Iran.
Captain Ed has much more on this breaking news.
Together with the capture of one of the most senior Al Qaeda leaders today--and the possible death of more--this has been a bountiful day for our military, indeed.
But I guess we still need to surrender to AQ, right Harry?
