Poland could be a terrorist target, security issues need clarification

Information from the Polish Intelligence Agency (AW) states that Poland may be the target of a terrorist attack as it has been a very loyal partner in the anti-terrorist coalition. AW director Agency Zbigniew Siemiatkowski said that Poland is located on the periphery of a possible of attack from Islamic terrorists. "Upon a request from our allies we have started to closely monitor traffic moving from the East to North America," revealed Siemiatkowski. After September 11, Polish Airlines LOT changed its on-board security procedures. "The doors to pilot's cabin are now secure, and the crew is able to take full control over the passenger area," said LOT president Jan Litwinski. Bronislaw Komorowski, a former Defense Minister, claims that procedures over opening fire under the amended aviation law are still hazy which may cause even the most experienced commanders to pause too long.
