From London To Mumbai, Al Qaeda Still A Threat: Clinton

New York, Sep 9: Despite being on a path to defeat since Osama’s bin Laden’s death, al Qeada continues to pose a security threat in cities from London to Mumbai, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said today, noting that the US is taking “seriously” the terror threat ahead of 9/11 anniversary.

“We are meeting here... amid reports that al Qaeda is again seeking to harm Americans. This should surprise no one. But it is a reminder of the continuing stakes in our struggle against violent extremism.

“We are taking this threat seriously, and federal, state and local authorities are taking all necessary steps to address it,” Clinton said in a speech at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in Manhattan here.
