Al-Qaida Vows Attacks After Foiled Bid

MANAMA, Bahrain -- Al-Qaida on Saturday vowed more attacks a day after an attempt to bomb the world's biggest oil processing complex showed the group still can strike inside Saudi Arabia despite the arrests of hundreds of suspects.

A strike on the Abqaiq complex, near Saudi Arabia's eastern Persian Gulf coast, could have been devastating. Nearly two-thirds of the country's oil flows through the facility for processing before export.

Foiling the attack demonstrated Saudi Arabia's success in putting tough security around the oil industry, the source of the royal family's wealth, oil analysts said.

Obviously, a sigh of relief that nothing went down at the Abqaiq complex, but we are now getting the story on Arabs successfully tough on security. Hmmm...what other story does that fit with?
