Jihadists Spying on Anchorage International Airport?

A disturbing report today on the invaluable MEMRI Web site. Remember, five years after 9/11, airplanes remain the jihadists' Holy Grail:

Mujahideen Gather Information on Anchorage International Airport

On October 17, 2006, an Islamist website posted a message titled "You Can Spy on the Enemies' Airports Directly by Controlling the Cameras' Direction." The message contains a link to a screen showing what it claims to be a live view of various areas within Anchorage International Airport via several cameras (http://209.193.48.89/view/index.shtml ). The message gives directions for how to control the cameras and promises to provide links in the future for other airports as well.

Be sure to click on the link to view the survelliance photos supposedly taken from the airport. We have no way of verifying their authenticity at this point, but the context is troubling enough.
