Sears' Tower likely to destroy - June 22, 2006

Sears Tower Terror Target? Sears Tower, the 1450 feet high tower building in Chicago city is the highest and one of the main attraction to the visitors. The 110 storeyed tower is a place where 10,000 people do their related duties to earn their livelihood. We (including my wife Sushila and son Sugam) visited the spot on 18 and 19th of June, about a couple of days ago. The fine morning news of 23rd June on CNN gave a big surprise to us that the tower was made a target to destroy by so called 'Seas of David'. Seven people concerned with the event were arrested in the previous night.

The news followed: Story aired: Friday, June 23, 2006 U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez said seven men arrested last night were homegrown terrorists who were planning to wage a "full ground war" here in the U.S., with the help of the Al Qaeda terror network. And that included blowing up of the Sears Tower in Chicago and the FBI building in Miami. But the attorney general said the men were caught early in the planning stage.
