Hoffman: beware simplicity



Attempts in UK Seen as Model for New Attacks on U.S. Soil -Karen DeYoung

Bruce Hoffman, a counterterrorism expert at Georgetown University, said he considered al-Qaeda involvement likely in the British incidents and disagreed with those who labeled the attacks amateurish.

"They didn't work, but I think of all the al-Qaeda plots we've seen, their sophistication is in their simplicity. They used available materials."
