Terror Alert based on Fabricated Intelligence Posted: Saturday, January 3, 2004 by Michel Chossudovsky www.globalresearch.ca January 03, 2004 On December 21st, the country was put on High Terror Alert by the Department of Homeland Security. Based on "credible" intelligence sources, presumed Al-Qaeda and Taliban terrorists were planning to hijack an Air France plane and "crash it on US soil in a suicide terror strike similar to those carried out on September 11, 2001." Air France Christmas flights out of Paris were grounded. F-16 fighters were patrolling the skies. Following the investigation by the French authorities, the Al Qaeda terrorists turned out to be a five year old boy, an elderly Chinese lady and a Welsh insurance salesman. A routine case of "mistaken identity" had contributed to breaking the Spirit of Christmas, across the Land. Based on erroneous intelligence, an entire Nation had been brought under Orange Code terror alert. Was it incompetence or was it deliberate? Either way, a public inquiry into the workings of the Homeland Security Department is long overdue.
