Washington - The former US senator, Mr Gary Hart, who helped draft a commission report on national security, warned yesterday that the US remained vulnerable and ill-prepared for subsequent terror attacks.

"This is not the end, this is just the beginning. There will be other attacks on this country," he told NBC's Today. Mr Hart co-chaired a commission that in January warned of a possible terror attack against the US.
