Britain: Terrorism Warnings by E-Mail

The British security service known as MI5 is using e-mail to alert the public to changes in the security threat level. Internet users may register on MI5’s Web site to receive the electronic updates. On Nov. 9, the agency’s director general, Dame Eliza Manningham-Buller, said that Britain was facing as many as 30 terrorist plots and that terrorists might soon be using nuclear or biological weapons. Dame Eliza, who is retiring in April, has been more public than her predecessors in warning of suspected threats. In August, MI5 began posting details of the threat level, which is set by the government’s Joint Terrorism Analysis Center, on its Web site. The threat level has five tiers and is now at “severe,” the second highest, which means an attack is considered highly likely.
Britain: An Increase in Profit at the London Stock Exchange

The London Stock Exchange, seeking to fend off a hostile takeover by the Nasdaq Stock Market, reported a 9.9 percent increase in third-quarter profit and forecast a “strong performance” in fiscal 2008. Net income rose to £31 million ($59.8 million) in the three months ended Dec. 31, up from £28.2 million a year earlier, the exchange said. Revenue increased 11 percent, to £89.9 million ($173.5 million). The third-quarter results “support the board’s rejection of Nasdaq’s offer, which significantly undervalues the business and the exchange’s unique strategic position,” the exchange’s chief executive, Clara Furse, said. “Our strong growth prospects will continue to enhance the quality of our markets.” The exchange, Europe’s biggest equity market, released its earnings about three weeks ahead of schedule and two days before Nasdaq’s offer to pay £12.43 a share expires.

WASHINGTON — By stepping up the American military presence in Iraq, President George W. Bush is not only inviting an epic clash with the Democrats who run Capitol Hill. He is ignoring the results of the November elections, rejecting the central thrust of the bipartisan Iraq Study Group and flouting the advice of some of his own generals, as well as Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki of Iraq.
