The tightened security comes in response to a warning by United States intelligence agencies that say that Al Qaeda is preparing "large-scale terrorist attacks" against the United States. After the latest videotape from Osama Ben Laden, security throughout US ports of entry has been tightened and airport security in neighboring countries has been stiffened. Security officers are taking more time to check each passenger's luggage and more officers have been stationed at control points.
