Thursday, September 30, 2010 – Daily News – 5B Suspected terror plot prompted drone strikes LONDON (AP) — Security officials said Wednesday a terror plot to wage Mumbai-style shooting sprees or other attacks in Britain, France and Germany is still active and that recent CIA strikes in Pakistan were aimed at al- Qaida operatives suspected in the threat. The plot was still in its early stages and not considered serious enough to raise the terror threat level, officials said. Still, the Eiffel Tower in Paris was briefly evacuated Tuesday — the second time in two weeks because of an unspec- ified threat — and French police were on alert. A heavy police presence was seen Wednes- day around Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square and Big Ben. Victoria Station was briefly evacuated after an unusual smell was reported. "This plot was in its embryonic stages," a British government official told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of his work. He said the plot had preoccupied the security communi- ty more than other recent threats, but did not merit changing the security threat level from severe to critical. Some details about the plot came from Ahmed Siddiqui, a German citizen of Afghan background who was captured in Afghanistan in July, a U.S. official said. Embattled Dems put off votes, debates on taxes WASHINGTON (AP) — A deeply unpopular Congress is bolting for the campaign trail with- out finishing its most basic job — approving a budget for the government year that begins on Friday. Lawmakers also are postponing a major fight over taxes, two embarrassing ethics cases and other political hot potatoes until after the Nov. 2 elections. With their House and Senate majorities on the line, Democratic leaders called off votes and even debates on all controversial matters. "It would be one thing if you have a chance to pass something, then by all means have a vote," Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., said Wednesday. "But it was pretty clear that it was going to be mutually assured destruction." It was a messy end to a session fraught with partisan fire. "We may not agree on much, but I think with rare exception, all 100 senators want to get out of here and get back to their states," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who is locked in a tough re-election fight against Republican Shar- ron Angle in Nevada. Tropical Storm Nicole causes deadly floods KINGSTON, Jamaica (AP) — Tropical Storm Nicole caused extensive flooding and mudslides Wednesday in Jamaica, killing at least two people, even as the drenching system moved north and dissipated over the Florida straits. The outer bands of the storm hammered Jamaica, toppling bridges and knocking out power to thousands. Many streets were filled with gushing brown torrents of water, prompting Prime Minister Bruce Golding to urge people to stay indoors. The storm, which had sustained winds of 40 mph (65 kph) earlier in the day, broke apart over the Atlantic, though the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami warned that there were still large areas of heavy rain. Jamaican Information Minister Daryl Vaz said two people were confirmed dead but warned that the toll could be higher from the flash floods and mudslides. Emergency shelters were opened for thou- sands of Jamaicans who live in ramshackle homes along gullies. Major hospitals were treat- ing only emergency cases. Officials said about 30 percent of the power utility's customers were without power. Some bridges collapsed in the rushing water. WORLD BRIEFING Mexican marines nab 30 alleged cartel members MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican marines captured 30 suspected Gulf cartel members and seized an arsenal of weapons during two days of raids in a northern border state torn by drug gang battles, officials announced Wednesday. The marines, acting on intelligence obtained by the navy and other agencies, conducted the raids in Matamoros and Reynosa, two cities across the border from Texas in the state of Tamaulipas, Rear Adm. Jose Luis Vergara said. The troops seized more than 50 guns, two shoulder-fired rocket launchers, 21 grenades and ammunition. The 30 suspects, including one woman, were paraded before reporters at an air base in Mexi- co City, handcuffed and flanked by masked marines in black-and-white combat gear. They were lined up in front of a helicopter, the arsenal of weapons laid out in front of them. Despite the display, the navy gave no indica- tion of how significant the arrests were in the government's efforts to destroy the Gulf cartel, which is waging a bloody turf war in Tamaulipas with its former ally, the Zetas gang of hit men. Medical experts challenge prognosis for Lockerbie bomber WASHINGTON (AP) — Scotland's progno- sis that the Lockerbie bomber had three months to live was not justified, medical experts told Congress on Wednesday, and a senator ques- tioned whether the process was deliberately manipulated to pave the way for the bomber's release from prison last year. Abdel Baset al-Megrahi served eight years of a life sentence for the Dec. 21, 1988, bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland, which killed all 259 people on board, most of them Americans, and 11 people on the ground. Suffering from advanced prostate cancer, al-Megrahi was released on compassionate grounds in August 2009 by Scotland's government. He returned to Libya, outraging people on both sides of the Atlantic. He is still alive. "The release on compassionate grounds was deeply, deeply flawed and perhaps even inten- tionally skewed to allow for al-Megrahi's release," said Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., chairing a Foreign Relations Committee hearing. The panel is investigating whether the British-based oil company BP had sought his freedom to help get a $900 million exploration agreement with Libya off the ground. Senators have been rebuffed in their attempts to get out- going BP CEO Tony Hayward to testify. The medical experts said that a man who had only three months to live wouldn't have been able to walk up and down stairs without assis- tance, as al-Megrahi did last year when boarding a plane for Libya and then disembarking to a hero's welcome. Candidate says he would tell Obama to 'go to hell' PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Republican gubernatorial candidate Paul LePage told a group of fishermen at a GOP forum that he won't be afraid to tell President Barack Obama to "go to hell." LePage, a favorite of tea partiers, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that he regret- ted the words he chose Sunday in the small coastal town of Brooksville but that he wasn't backing down in his criticism of the administra- tion for what he describes as free-spending, antibusiness policies. A Democratic Party official said it showed LePage is hotheaded and ill-suited to govern. LePage was responding to a question when he made the remark about Obama, which was captured by a Democratic Party aide who was videotaping the event. "As your governor, you're going to be seeing a lot of me on the front page, saying 'Governor LePage tells Obama to go to hell,'" LePage said to applause.
