Indonesia Terror Attacks may be Imminent: Australia

Is there a pattern here? Morocco and Canada are also on high alert. Britain is worried about more attacks. Or are the politicians overly worried? Or are they just using the terror threat to deceive the public, alas George Bush. It could also be a faint by the al Qaeda network, intended to draw attention away from the United States. There is a suggestion that chatter is the highest its been since 9-11. Unfortunately, we are forced to accept the assurances of the Bush administration that since we haven't been hit in the last 6 years therefore we are safe. I don't feel safe. Do you?:
Australia warned on Sunday of possible imminent terrorist attacks in Indonesia, including on the resort island of Bali, and told its citizens to think twice before traveling there.

In an upgraded travel advisory, the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said terrorists were actively planning attacks that could take place at any time.

Before getting too cynical, read this warning I posted just 133 days ago:
The threat of homegrown terrorists attacking Britain is greater now than any time since the Sept. 11 attacks in the United States, a British Sunday newspaper reported, citing a leaked intelligence document.

More than 2,000 British-based Islamic terrorists are believed to be plotting attacks, according to a government threat assessment prepared this month, which The Sunday Telegraph said it had seen.
