The FBI is warning that al Qaeda may be preparing a series of holiday attacks on U.S. shopping malls in Los Angeles and Chicago, according to an intelligence report distributed to law enforcement authorities across the country this morning.
The alert said al Qaeda "hoped to disrupt the U.S. economy and has been planning the attack for the past two years."
Law enforcement officials tell ABCNews.com that the FBI received the information in late September and declassified it yesterday for wide distribution.
The alert, like similar FBI and Department of Homeland Security terror alerts issued over the past five years at holiday times, raised questions about the credibility of the information.

The bulletin acknowledges that U.S. intelligence officers are uncertain as to whether the information is real, and intelligence officers say there is a concern that it could be "disinformation."
Law enforcement officials at three different agencies told ABCNews.com the FBI alert was based on a source who has proved reliable in the past.
The source reportedly had only "indirect access" to al Qaeda and word of the actual threat came to U.S. intelligence officers "through a lengthy chain" of contacts.
With the shopping season approaching, however, the FBI officials decided it was necessary to share the information.

Do you think they will hit the 99cent store?

I wonder what would happen if they simultaneously hit the big oil rigs, rendering them useless? Wouldn't that be a good idea for terrorists?

or how about hit a WWE match.

Why do you yanks love to spread fear? Has anyone ever thought why Al Qaeda sprang into existance in the first place and why they hate the western world? How many Billions of dollars have been spent already? How much would it cost to fix the homeless situation in the cities, put food on peoples tables? As long as the Dick Cheneys' and George Bushs' of America are making a buck why should they stop the killing?
