Security Report Outlines Terror Scenarios

By LARA JAKES JORDAN, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - An upcoming Homeland Security Department report outlines a dozen frightening if hypothetical scenarios such as a terrorist nuclear attack or spreading plague in airport bathrooms to spur state and local preparedness against security risks.

Over the last year, the department has drafted its National Planning Scenarios plan that poses the possibility of credible and destructive attacks — including by nerve gas, anthrax, pneumonic plague and truck bomb. The currently confidential report, requested by a presidential directive in December 2003, will be made public in upcoming months, Homeland Security spokesman Brian Roehrkasse said Tuesday.

Officials said there was no credible indication that such attacks were being planned.


The draft plan was first reported Tuesday night on the Internet site of The New York Times.

1. The LIHOP Crowd Will Say That Our Tax Dollars Are Being Use To Do

The terrorists brainstorming for them.

Isn't it great when Osama Been Forgotten does not have to spend a dime to plan the next attack. Homeland Security has beaten him to the punch.

What a country we live in. Can't wait to blame Osama for all our problems and can't wait to help him attack again!

Is this FUBAR or what?
