Bush had better be making nice with Hugo and friends.

US 'must beware' rise in al-Qaeda oil strikes - Financial Times - MSNBC.com:

"The US and its Arab allies must expect an increase in attacks on their oil infrastructure in the next phase of the war by al-Qaeda targeting the US economy, the former Central Intelligence Agency official who was responsible for hunting down Osama bin Laden warns on Monday.

Writing for the Jamestown Foundation, a Washington security think-tank, Michael Scheuer says Mr bin Laden's intention to bankrupt the US economy by driving up world oil prices is very likely to lead to attacks inside the US by al-Qaeda, its allies or unrelated groups."
