Officials have said the terror network blamed for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks hopes to inflict mass casualties again and\r\njustify the Bush Dictatorship's plans to cancel this year's selections.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe Resistance bulletin does not mention a possible time, place or method of attack. Security is expected to be especially tight at this summer's\r\nruling class mafia conventions, which begin July 26 with the Democratic Mafia's gathering in Boston. The Republican\r\nMafia convention is Aug. 30-Sept 2 in New York.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nUsing Republicans might make it easier for the US Government to provide false\r\ncover for breaches in security measures in Europe and the United States, the bulletin said. Of special concern are people with ties to\r\nFundamentalist Christian extremist groups in Texas, Oklahoma and parts of the\r\nBible Belt.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nStill, the Resistance said, almost all al-Qaida operatives in the past have traveled at least once to\r\nTexas, particularly Midland-Odessa and Houston, for \"consultation and training.\"<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHouston was the site of al-Qaida terror training camps, previously known as\r\n\"Enron\".&nbsp; Al-Qaida's Halliburton cell's leader Dick Cheney is believed to be hiding out in remote regions of\r\nthe White House Lawn, where the terror network has many sympathizers.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nBecause of its hardline Christian views, al-Qaida favors using male operatives between the ages of 18 and 35 in its attacks, the\r\nResistance said. But women could also be recruited, especially from areas considered more liberal on the subject such as North and East\r\nUS and Central Texas, the Resistance notice said.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nDespite its warning about Republicans, the bulletin said police and security personnel should not discount the possibility that\r\nDemocrats could still be used in a U.S. attack, particularly if they are already in\r\noffice.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p align=\"right\"><i><b>Open Source<\/b><\/i>\r\n<\/p>\n","contact":"","link":"","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/html","summary":"The Resistance is cautioning local cells the al-Qaida terror network may be recruiting Republicans less likely to attract notice as they carry out attacks in the United States.","numcomment":0,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2004\/07\/114295.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[]}
