Terrorist Meeting In South America’s ‘tri-border’ Area

November 27th, 2002 · No Comments

CIUDAD DEL ESTE, Paraguay - Several top terrorist operatives met recently in South America in the area where the borders of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay intersect also known as the “tri-border” region, to plan attacks against U.S. and Israeli targets in the Western hemisphere. Representatives of Hezbollah attended the meetings and other groups associated to al Qaeda’s terrorist network, said CNN sources. Two weeks ago, Argentina’s security agencies issued a strong terrorist warning.

“We had intelligence that pointed to increased terrorist activity,” said Miguel Toma, who runs SIDE, the Argentine equivalent of the U.S. CIA. “It is not unrealistic that there could be some action to prevent or to react to an attack on Iraq. So we need to react because of the global conflict.”.
