...their apartment buildings could be targeted; the country's 103 nuclear power plants were placed on heightened alert; and new, cryptic FBI dispatches warned of the remote possibility of small-aircraft kamikazes and scuba-diver offensives--perhaps, a source tells TIME, to place a limpet mine on the hull of a cruise ship...

...Relations between the FBI and the US Embassy have improved since Bodine was replaced by Edmund Hull, formerly of the State counter-terrorism bureau and the US Embassy in Cairo. Hull and FBI officials have enjoyed a good relationship in the past, and that solidarity is crucial because while Saleh has pledged to cooperate with the international anti-terrorism effort, FBI officials fear he may falter to out of concern for domestic political repercussions. FBI officials know they don't have the clout to convince Saleh to stay the course - so they hope the State Department and the White House...
