German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere was quoted on Saturday as saying there were "serious indications" of terror attacks in preparation in Europe and the United States but did not provide any further specific details.
De Maiziere, who until now has regularly played down security worries, told Bild am Sonntag newspaper that he was concerned.
"There are indications that have to be taken seriously of attacks in Europe and the United States," de Maiziere told the Sunday newspaper. "Events have prompted me to express my concerns publicly for the first time."
Over the past week

That is worrisome...
The Germans have been the cooler heads so far in the last decade... Many times going so far as to openly CRITICIZE the DOZENS of other times we've been told terror attacks might happen...
This whole tipping point thing is just starting to get creepy... between volcanoes and people abandoning the US and now bank stuff not working in what seems to be a widening swath across the banks and states...
It's not looking super great for getting through the month intact without some disruptions. Really seems like a race to see what comes apart at the seams first.

Don't know, if they really delete posts. I read some articles today, because de Maiziére now says, there would be terrorist actions at the end of November - as partner countries had told him and as his own people had agreed to.
Imaging, Bush had claimed, that something would happen on September 11 two weeks before! Maiziére would become the Uri of all the Gellers, if he is right. Or somebody should search his office, to find out, what they sent out the last two weeks.
Obviously we need more terrorist threads. People in Stuttgart are rebelling against the 21 project, people all along the railway are protesting against Castor and showing, that they don't like a government, that prolongs the time for nuclear power systems, and Wikileaks tells us, the wars in Middle East are bad.
Ey, look! Terror is still there! In the mouthes of our politicians and in the hands of our young guys, those saints send out to save our resources.
