U.S. military bases and diplomatic missions worldwide are also being placed on high alert for the week, offi cials say. The U.S. Embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia, was closed Monday because of a specific threat against it. The flurry of incoming threats picked up by intelligence sources is challenging the FBI to determine which might be credible. But while officials say they have no specific details of an impending attack, the government is taking no chances. Ari Fleischer, the White House press secretary, said Monday the threat of new attacks remains a worry to U.S. officials. “Anniversaries can be- not neces sarily always - can be occasions for heightened terrorist activity,” Fleischer said. “Just given the fact that it’s a one year anniversary, we’re going to be on our toes.” Last week, the FBI posted a bulletin on a Web site and sent a message over a private law enforcement bulletin system advising a state of alert on Sept. 11. The police bulletin was sent Wednesday, according to a law enforce ment official who spoke on condition of anonymity. The Web site bulletin was posted by the FBl’s National Infrastructure Protection Center, which assesses threats and passes warnings to local infrastructure companies and agencies. Banks, trucking companies, power com panies, utility companies and trans portation companies are in the network that the FBI communicates with through Internet bulletins. Other events mentioned on the Web site as warranting heightened awareness include the Sept 10-20 U.N. General Assembly session in New York and the SepL 25-29 World Bank and International Monetary Fund meetings in Washington. “A large volume of threats of unde termined reliability continues to be received and investigated by the FBI,” the bulletin stated. “Several of these threats make reference to the events of Sept. 11, 2001, and to New York City and Washington, D.C.” The warnings are based on informa tion from all U.S. intelligence sources, ranging from telephone calls to inter views with detainees at the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, accord ing to a senior law enforcement official.
