Al Qaeda Looking To Target Planes In Europe, UK Security Minister Warns by Newsblenda(m): 7:52am On Dec 24, 2018
Terror group al Qaeda is "resurgent" and looking to carry out attacks on passenger planes in Europe, UK Security Minister Ben Wallace has warned.

In an interview with British newspaper The Sunday Times, Wallace said al Qaeda -- the group behind the infamous World Trade Center attacks that killed almost 3,000 people in the US on September 11, 2001 -- "still aspire for aviation attacks" and is developing technology to bring down planes.

"The aviation threat is real," Wallace said in the interview on Saturday night. "(Al Qaeda) have reorganized. They are pushing more and more plots towards Europe and have become familiar with the new methods."

The rise of ISIS has overshadowed the al Qaeda threat in recent years -- particularly after its most prominent leader, Osama Bin Laden, was killed by US forces in Pakistan in 2011.

But Wallace said the danger had never truly diminished.

"Al Qaeda sat quietly in the corner and tried to work out what the 21st century looked like while ISIS became the latest terrorist boy band," he said. "But they have not gone away."

British intelligence chiefs are also concerned about US President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw US troops from Syria, with Wallace saying it will create a "new safe haven for Islamists to launch attacks on the West."

His remarks echo concerns voiced by US politicians, including Sen. Lindsey Graham, who told Trump in the past week that withdrawing troops from the Middle East could lead to "a second 9/11."

Wallace's statements come amid widespread chaos at Gatwick Airport in the UK over the weekend as rogue drones flying overhead led dozens of flights to be canceled.

There is no indication the Gatwick Airport incident is terror-related, Sussex police said earlier in the week.

This is bad news for Jubril as he plans his annual January medical holidays in order avoid presidential debate.

He has two options now

Go to Uk for medical treatment and risk being shoot down by Al Qaeda

or

Stay back in Nigeria and be humiliated by Atiku and co at the presidential debate.

Any which way, it ain't looking good for the dullard. Sad times in Aso Rock

from the initial announcement of Trump to withdraw American troops from Syria and Afghanistan I know some people will be offended, hence mass resignation follow the announcement and now all of a sudden resurgence of Alqaida
the next breaking news if care is not taken will be
1) Terrorist hit London
2) Terrorist attack European cities
3) Al-Qaida claim responsibility of attacks
4) Berlin Bombings
5) Terrorist cross over to Iran and Pakistan
6) Spy drones spotted terrorist in North Africa
7) New York shootings
cool US to led a Coalition against terrorist in Iran, Pakistan and Algeria
9) U.S led coalition Invade Iran and Pakistan
10) 1million refugees flow into Europe
11) Europe is Islamizing

This is Promotion strategy in Arms Industries

Arab people are anti western in their beliefs.

The hatred they have for western lifestyle is making them to plan terror attacks.

It is only God that can change them from their wicked acts.
