The US Government has warned Americans living in the Gulf states to be wary of possible terrorist attacks.
An official in the State Department said a communications intercept contained strong indications of an imminent attack on the Arabian peninsula, probably in Saudi Arabia or Kuwait.
On June 22nd, the State Department issued a similar warning, prompting a Marine Corps contingent in Jordan to cut short its training session and the US 5th Fleet to send its ships out to sea from a port in Bahrain.
Today's warning made no reference to Saudi terrorist Osama bin Laden, but he is understood to be the reason behind the warning.
