FBI urges vigilance for July 4

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A constant stream of intelligence indicating that al Qaeda wants to strike the United States this summer or fall has led federal officials to urge increased vigilance during the Independence Day weekend, but there is no specific threat of an attack timed to the holiday.

We are the "Stotters" who make ourselves aware of the enemy who wishes to do us harm

Meet It!
Greet It!
Defeat It!

This is scary stuff, from The Times of India:

(snippets)

Experts are unanimous that Al-Qaeda will not replicate the plane bombs of 9/11, and will instead try a new approach. The one most mentioned, because it is easiest to pull off, is the dirty bomb.

This is an ordinary bomb into which is mixed low-level radioactive waste, the sort easily available from any nuclear reactor waste (including used clothes and gloves of workers in such facilities). Making these bombs is easy, so they could be exploded simultaneously in dozens of cities on the same day.

The aim of such a bomb is not to destroy buildings or people but to deposit radioactive debris over a large area in city centres. This radioactivity will be too mild to kill humans.

But it will create a long-term health risk which ensures that nobody wants to live or work in such an area.

This will have a huge financial impact. A dirty bomb will kill property value in city centres, wiping out billions of dollars. This, in turn, can kill banks that have lent against mortgages of supposedly valuable property that has suddenly become worthless.

Ok, with Ivan & the chicoms massed at the same geograhic point, what are the chances of a co-invasion of SK through NK?

That's so far out there as to be ridiculous, I know. But I also know that these three countries have several things in common. All of them have held American prisoners for YEARS.

Prophetically, there will be another major war to be followed by 7 years of peace, and then Armageddon. The first would destroy Damascus, IIRC.

ExSoldier, it is better to ask for forgiveness than permission

Be bold.

They don't have to sell it on the black market...a small local market will sell just fine at regular price points (or just below)and think of the profit margin!

Somebody's uncle owns a Mom & Pop pharmacy...

It could even turn up in a little rural town.

I've always believed that the Russians and Chinese would eventually team up against the United States. Its inevitable.

They hate America being the sole superpower, and they want us leveled to their playing field. They already have some sort of agreement to 'limit American hedgemony" circa approximately 2000 or so.

Russia has major playing stakes in Iran, so it isnt a stretch to see them playing in Asia. They have a long Asian border.

Good observation

[judicial meanz]

Be back later folks

The MRS wants me to do some JOBS.

CLARIFICATION:

I don't know what the contents are; so unknown if this site is important or not. (re post 620)

[Cindy]

OK

[HipShot]

This is why we need thread 11 back. JustPiper had posted some information from "Ossama's Revenge", which is directly relevant here.

If the claims are true, it won't be waste, and there won't be a conventional component.

Why would he use junk when he supposedly has suitcase nukes? Why would he use waste when he supposedly has U236?

[Cindy]

Forget it.
Apparently it is looking more like a tourist site.

OK found the post by "The Black Flag"

First, "The Black Flag" has only posted or responded a total of 14 times, but he registered in November 2003.

Here's the translation:

Attack your planned attacks
In the name of Allah, the most gracious and merciful
Attack your planned attacks
These should arrive God willing.

This was posted earlier today.

Sorry for taking so long to get this translated.

[JellyJam]

All good questions ... and isn't al-Qaida's main goal to kill Americans? Dirty bombs wouldn't draw as many casualties as nukes. Bin Laden (or whatever's left of him) and his band of devil-spawn want to inflict mass casualties.

[drymans wife]

No apologies.....Thank You

[HipShot]

I'm sorry to have bothered you with it when you're sick.

As for taking long, that was MUCH faster than I had thought it would be. Just for that, I'm doubling your TM salary.

Thank you. I was hoping that it was a false lead.

What's your personal take?

[drymans wife]

Fox was just reporting on the glider aircraft that
terrorist were planning to fly into the Hotel in
Instanbul, laden with explosives. They can't be
detected by radar.

[JellyJam]

Maybe that's how they deliver the dirty bombs?!

[StillProud2BeFree]

Someone may have already posted it but the jihadi forums have confirmed the murder of the American Marine. They claim to have slit his throat and beheaded him. The reports indicate a video will be released later today.

They are making it very clear that one of the next beheadings will be of a female.

[JellyJam]

Are there any female captives that we know of?

[drymans wife]

Yes and they made it sound like they already have her.
How about Saudi or Morocco anything else been herd?

[drymans wife]

They could use weather balloons, parachutes, gliders
for bio and I guess if they wanted to carry a suitcase
nuke, lets pray they don't, also. Weatherbaloons and
bio instructions were found in Atta's appt and a
Pakistani Scientist.

[JellyJam]

Damn, even if we shoot 'em down, they'll still cause a lot of damage - especially over populated areas.
