"Terrorists are setting their sights on the global energy infrastructure, the head of Germany's foreign intelligence service (BND). Ernst Uhrlau told a Berlin seminar on energy and security there had been a marked increase in the number of terrorist attacks directed at energy targets in recent years. Groups like al-Qaeda, he said, had improved their capability and were concentrating on global energy supplies instead of local attacks of fuel depots or pipelines."
