UK is the Main al-Qaeda Target

An article on the BBC News site mentions how al-Qaeda is setting up an IRA-like structure in the UK. The article also mentions that

"Each cell has a leader, a quartermaster dealing with weapons, and volunteers.

According to our correspondent, each cell works on separate, different plots, with masterminds controlling several different cells.

Those involved in the cells were often aware they were being followed and so were meeting in public spaces.

In addition, training is taking place in the UK and Pakistan."
