AUSTIN, Texas, May 18, 2010 -
- The biggest security threat to the World Cup is crime, not terrorism
- Chinese, Russian, Nigerian and Zimbabwean criminal organizations all
will be looking to take advantage of visiting soccer fans
- It's unlikely that jihadist groups like al Qaeda have the capacity to
carry out a major attack
- If a large-scale attack were to occur, South Africa's medical services
and transportation infrastructure would be overwhelmed
STRATFOR, the world's foremost publisher of global intelligence, news and
analysis, will release its World Cup Security Assessment this Tuesday.
