The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has warned that vague threats have been made against two potential targets. One of these targets is the water resources of Orlando City in Florida, which is located near Disney World and other tourist attractions. Officials say that confirmation of these threats through independent sources has not been possible, and security measures in the water network of Orlando City have been intensified. The other potential threat concerns apartment complexes across America. Security officials say they have asked skyscraper managers to remain vigilant as terrorists may attempt to plant large amounts of explosives in a large building to cause widespread destruction. These FBI warnings coincide with blunt warnings issued by Richard Cheney, the Vice President of the United States, who stated that another attack by Al-Qaeda terrorists is almost certain.
