Deja vu all over again: Al-Qaeda targeting European railways
Fast forward 33 years. Based on a call intercepted by the United States National Security Agency (yes, the same one for whom Edward Snowden used to work), the German newspaper Bild reported on Monday that al-Qaeda is targeting European railways.
According to Bild, the militant group was possibly targeting trains and tunnels, with the intention to sabotage railway tracks and the electric cabling.
The German newspaper cited the information as coming from a conference call intercepted by the US National Security Agency (NSA), involving high-ranking al-Qaida operatives.
As a result, authorities deployed undercover police officers at main stations and along major routes, Bild stated.Hmmm. Maybe they're trying to convince Europe not to declare al-Qaeda a terror organization (just joking).
And you thought al-Qaeda didn't exist anymore....
