Нет, первая попытка была сделана именно в отношении "The Sullivans"
Здравствуйте, уважаемый HorNet!
Al Qaeda attack attempt
Members of al-Qaeda attempted an attack on The Sullivans on January 3, 2000 as a part of the 2000 millennium attack plots. The plan was to load a boat full of explosives and explode near The Sullivans's hull. However the boat was so overladen that it sank, forcing the attack to be cancelled. Later, al-Qaida tried the same type of attack a second time. They successfully bombed Cole on 12 October 2000.
