One of Saudi Arabia's most wanted believed linked to bomb plot

In recent news on attempted terrorism, a man named Ibrahim Hassan al-Asiri is suspected to be behind two packages with explosives that were destined to Chicago. The explosives that were in the packages are called PETN, only 6 grams of these explosives are enough to blow a hole in the fuselage of an aircraft. They were discovered by the United Arab Emirates and British authorities. Al-Asiri is one of the most wanted men in Saudi Arabia, He is known to be an expert in the fields of explosives and Poison. His brother Abdullah committed suicide when he attempted to assassinate Saudi Prince Muhammed Bin Naif, a top security official. He failed in the attempt. The authorities believe that he has been hiding in Yemen for the past three years. I think that this is a huge threat to the U.S. especially in the fact that Al-Asiri is still out there and still has the potential to organize and plan things such as this.
