FOXNews.com - U.S. Warns Taliban Planning Attack on Aid Workers in Pakistan: "The Pakistani Taliban are planning to attack foreigners assisting in the aftermath of devastating floods in the country, a senior U.S. official warned.
'According to information available to the U.S. government, Tehrik-e-Taliban plans to conduct attacks against foreigners participating in the ongoing flood relief operations in Pakistan,' the official told the BBC on condition of anonymity.
The Taliban 'also may be making plans to attack federal and provincial ministers in Islamabad,' the British broadcaster quoted the official as saying.
Pakistani Taliban spokesman Azam Tariq hinted at an attack himself, claiming Thursday that the United States and other countries were not really focused on providing aid to flood victims but had other 'intentions' he did not specify.
Tariq strongly hinted that the militants could resort to violence.
