The Iraqi prime minister has said Iraqi intelligence indicated that an al-Qaeda front group and members of Saddam Hussein's forbidden Baath party are collaborating to launch terror attacks to cause fear and chaos and kill more civilians. Nouri al-Maliki put police and army on its highest alert for terror attacks. "We direct the Iraqi forces, police and army and other security forces, to take the highest alert and precautionary measures to foil this criminal planning," Alarabiya.net quotes al-Maliki’s statement to state-run television as saying.
