Threat Matrix: September 2007

The Birth of al Qaedastan

In the year 2016, the world may find itself gloomily marking September 6 as the tenth anniversary of the creation of the Islamic Emirate of Waziristan. The Emirate received de facto recognition when the Taliban used the name on the ceasefire agreement they signed with Pakistan on that day in 2006. If things go terribly wrong in the coming decade, they could come to rule a mountainous fragment of Pakistan and Afghanistan.

The Emirate would be a nightmare state: Osama bin Laden as sultan, Ayman al Zawahiri as vizier, and Mullah Omar the spiritual leader. An economy built on smuggling and heroin. Primary export: terrorism. Welcome to ‘Al Qaedastan’.

Analysts say the rise of a terrorist state straddling the rugged area between Pakistan and Afghanistan is now viable. The reason is a number of troubling trends. One, the revival of a Taliban firmly in the control of Al Qaeda. Two, the seeming inability of either Kabul or Islamabad to defeat the new threat militarily. Three, and the most striking, the Taliban’s systematic supplanting of the traditional tribal leadership in the area. Full story...

Cartoonist shrugs at Islamic death threat: ‘It’s good to know how much one is worth’

{snip}

Mr Vilks, who lives in an isolated area of Sweden, has been given police protection. He said: “I suppose you could say I was an easy target. But I am not paranoid. I think I possess a healthy rationality; I know that there are some risks involved but one should not exaggerate them either.”

But he added: “We must not give in. I’m starting to grow old. I could die at any time — it’s not a catastrophe.”

The internet threat stated: “We know how to force you to apologise. If you do not, expect us to strike the businesses of firms like Ericsson, Scania, Volvo, Ikea and Electrolux.”

Thanks.

You’re always welcome P. Galt.

I just read your post no. 1485 Velveeta. If someone is in a buying mood; how about buying one of these BRAND NAME products:

"Ericsson, Scania, Volvo, Ikea and Electrolux"

Bottom line: Terrorists don't like these brands. Supporting these brands is saying NO to terrorists.

A good friend of ours is selling his Volvo collection; all 17 of them!?! Yes, he’s a little eccentric but I’m sure he would make you a good deal :-)

[Cindy]

How wonderful!

I think he needs to email Jay Leno or Rush Limbaugh.
They might be interested.

[Velveeta]

[Velveeta]

17 Volvos? WOW!

I love that xc90 in white, but the price tag is waaaay out of my reach. Maybe someday, when the kids are through college.

Let’s see those vacuum cleaners for the stairs.

Ok.

A clean house is a good thing.
