Counterterrorism officials have stated they believe the plots in Britain may be a blueprint of attacks planned for the United States. But, the officials say, the degree of what might be in the works and timing of any potential attack remains unknown.

“Some wonder why they just don’t do vehicle bombs here. It would certainly cause panic and terror, and soft targets do exist here in abundance. But I continue to think they don’t want to waste their shot here on something that isn’t fairly spectacular,” one counterterrorism official said.
