States Struggle With Terror Warning

OMAHA, Neb. – The task before Gov. Mike Johanns, like the other 49 governors, was unenviable: Nebraska officials, already on high alert, were asked to go even higher.

The FBI on Monday issued a new terrorism warning — the second this month — asking Americans to be on the highest alert for possible attacks this week, though no specific threat was identified.

``I am taking this warning very, very seriously,'' Johanns said.
