Debkafile: Hizbullah Planned Mumbai-Style Attack on Chabad of Bangkok

Debkafile

Thai forensic experts carry packs of explosive chemicals believed to belong to a Lebanese suspect at a commercial building in Samut Sakhon province, a suburb of Bangkok.

The Thai police’s capture of a Lebanese-Swedish Hizballah suspect, who was charged Monday, Jan. 16, thwarted a terrorist attack on the Beit Chabad in Bangkok, involving the taking of hostages and blowing up the building. It was to have followed the same lines as al Qaeda’s 2008 assault on the Mumbai Chabad center which killed 8 Israelis and Jews – only more ambitious. The Bangkok Chabad is much larger: its hostel has rooms for dozens of lodgers. [Update: Chabad Taking threat seriously.]

Gas May Go Up to $5 Per Gallon This Summer

LA Times

Maybe you’ll want to start salting away money for 2012 fuel costs now. Get ready to see $4-a-gallon gasoline in various parts of the U.S. sometime this spring, according to one prediction. Another prediction says that some of the nation’s biggest cities — such as Chicago, Los Angeles and New York — will see record Memorial Day averages of $4.55 to $4.95 for a gallon of regular gasoline.
