 TEL AVIV,
Israel, May 26 (UPI) -- Israel has warned European and U.S. intelligence
services of possible terrorist attacks sponsored by Iran during the World
Cup, a Saudi newspaper reports.
Al-Watan said the aim of attacks by Hezbollah
would be to demonstrate that Iran can retaliate if it is
attacked. Recent reports have suggested that the United
States has considered either conventional or nuclear
air strikes on Iran's
major nuclear facility if diplomatic efforts fail to end its nuclear
program.
Europe and the United
States have reportedly set up a joint
operations room to deal with threats during the World Cup.
Germany
has not received word on whether Iranian President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad plans to go to Nuremburg to watch his
country's team play.
