Germany Ups Terrorism Alert Before Election

[whatnext@gmail.com]

With Germany going to the polls in a general election in three months,
authorities are on high alert after detecting an increase in online
warnings of terrorist attacks targeting the country.
The German government held high-level talks with top security and
intelligence chiefs in Berlin on Thursday to discuss the growing
threat posed by Islamic extremists and to coordinate counterterrorism
measures. Intelligence officials are alarmed by the rising number of
videos posted online by militant Islamists who say they are
specifically targeting Germany. Up to 13 videos are reported to have
appeared on the Web since January, many of them referring to the
deployment of German troops in Afghanistan.
