Japan issues alert for citizens of possible terror attacks

ASSOCIATED PRESS

TOKYO, Nov. 17 — Alarmed by threats purportedly made by the al-Qaida terrorist network to attack U.S. allies, Japan has issued an alert for its citizens traveling or living abroad.
       In an advisory posted on the Foreign Ministry Web site Monday, the ministry urged Japanese tourists and residents to use ''utmost caution.''
       ''In light of the statement purportedly by al-Qaida threatening terror attacks, please obtain the latest information, stay away from facilities that are likely to become terror targets, use caution in crowded places and pay attention to what's around you to avoid possible terror attacks or any other trouble,'' it said.
       The alert was issued after two London-based Arabic-language newspapers received separate statements over the weekend threatening car bomb attacks against the United States, Britain, Italy, Australia and Japan.

I find it interesting that everytime a country decides not to send troops into the quagmire there is a "terrorism threat"

can you say CIA?

I thought you could.
