The newly disclosed plot showed that while bin Laden was always scheming for the next big strike that would kill thousands of Americans, he also believed a relatively simpler attack on the oil industry could create a worldwide panic that would hurt Westerners every time they gassed up their cars.” www.msnbc.msn.com/id/43115189/ns/us_news-security/t/al-qaida-eyed-oil-tankers-bombing-targets  Nexus Consulting  PO Box 6434 Arlington, VA  22206  info@ncga.us  VA Security License 11-6290  William S.
