Athens could be al Qaeda target Got spare money?

quote:
ATHENS: Olympic hosts Greece are among the top 10 global targets for terror network al Qaeda according to a confidential report cited by a Greek newspaper.

Greece is seventh on the alleged international hit list behind countries like Israel and the United States, but ahead of Britain ( ), the daily To Vima said.

"According to an updated edition of the analysis of the risks for the 2004 Olympics assessed by security services...Greece finds itself in seventh position globally in terms of a risk from an attack from al Qaeda," the paper said.

Greek officials refused to confirm or deny the existence of the report when contacted by Reuters. A government spokesman said on Monday Greece was not on a state of alert over possible attacks.

To Vima quoted an unnamed high-ranking official as saying: "Arab groups (are) targeting countries without particularly tough security measures who could be caught by surprise."

Athens has budgeted more than $600 million (366 million pounds) for security at the 2004 Olympics.

Olympic officials staged the second of three major anti-terrorism exercises on Friday, involving more than 500 people, security agencies, the fire brigade and coastguard.

The government signed a $280 million security contract with US-led consortium SAIC in May after a series of delays that sparked criticism from the International Olympic Committee.

Safety first. Besides, I don't think I am going to need my money after Al-quida will explode a nuclear bomb in the US, that will trigger a nuke war.

Better hide in the caves, and stay low.

I believe I should secretly hold all the top secret codes to Poly, in case Athens is nuked.

That way, nothing will be lost that any of us could give a crap about.

Athens is only so high up the list because of the attention that the world gives for such eevnts. I gúess it might be of interest to all if we do not care much about the Olympics this time around

So long...

Tired of ads?

I thought Poly's server was in Texas ?

On-Topic : I second The Pioneer. The terrorists will want to attract attention thanks to the Olympics, or maybe will want to spread paranoia with little cost (just announcing that they want to hit the Olympics will make a good chunk of Greece paranoid I suppose)

Here's a little poem I'm sure you enjoy and know by heart.

When cotton grows on the fig tree
And alfalfa hangs on the rose
When the aliens run the United States
And the Jews grow a straight nose
When the Pope is praised by everyone
In the land of Uncle Sam
And a Greek is elected President
THEN - the Ku Klux won't be worth a dam
.


Cheers.
