Al-Qaeda will strike the US prior to elections

Emboldened by their success in changing the Spainsh government to one more sympathetic to their wishes, "regime change" is now Al-Qaeda's favored plan of attack. Fresh on the heels of the Spanish attack, Al-Qaeda tried to influence the South Afican elections.

JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South Africa foiled an al Qaeda-linked plot to disrupt last month's general elections and passed along information that resulted in arrests in Jordan, Syria and Britain, Police Commissioner Jackie Selebi has said.

"We arrested some people who had evil intentions against this country -- we did not tell anybody -- five days before the election," Selebi said in comments to a parliamentary committee broadcast on national radio on Thursday.

"The result is that you saw in Jordan, in and around those days, a number of people arrested who were called al Qaeda. A number of people were (also) arrested in Syria as a result of our operation," Selebi said.

For John Kerry to critize Bush for issuing warnings about possible Al-Qaeda attacks in the run up to the US elections, shows how desperate the Democrats are. The Democrats appear happy to suffer an attack by Al-Qaeda if that would result in victory for Kerry. You can not get any lower than that.
