Al Qaeda again threatens New York, Washington and Los Angeles - Daily Terror Threat

Monday, November 3, 2003

A new message was posted in the last few hours by the Jeddah-based al-Qaeda-linked Al-Islah (Reform) society calling on Muslims to flee New York, Washington and Los Angeles in advance of major al Qaeda attacks in those cities. This is revealed by DEBKAfile.

The message accuses the United States of predetermining its end (doom) by its policies. ?The Jews rule the Pentagon by remote control and (are the cause) of Muslims being killed in every corner of the world. The United States should therefore expect more blows.?

The message is signed on behalf of the al Bayan (The Threat) movement by ?your warrior brother, Abul Hassan al Khadrami?.

Our Muslim expert identifies the name of the signatory as belonging to a Yemeni from Hadhrameuth, the Bin Ladens? place of origin where Osama enjoys substantial tribal support.

DEBKAfile?s counter-terror sources stress that warnings appearing on these forums are taken both very seriously and with caution by the intelligence services keeping track of the terrorist network?s electronic traffic.

Last November, Jeddah-based fundamentalist forums addressed a message to an Al Qaeda member, saying whoever understands ? understands; whoever knows, knows, but we are marching towards an operation that will take us to Paradise. Three days later, the Mombasa Paradise hotel was blown up killing 12 Kenyans and 3 Israelis and a failed shoulder-launched Strela anti-air missile missed an Israeli airliner at Mombasa airport.

Life is too short. I wish everyone a blessed 2004.

I'm with you. I've concluded that anything jihadi-like on the Internet is now about as "secret" or mysterious as broadcasting in the clear. It is a completely compromised communication medium. Coded or not, PGP or not, in Arabic or not. Makes no difference, there are people with enough serious resources, technology, and smarts to track these guys down.

I also agree that they're back to running their secrets on the back of camel couriers, because the Internet is no longer safe for them, just as they were long ago busted on satphones.

You would think the jihadis were educated by the speedy apprehension of the Dan Pearl murders, and probably the smarter, real guys were. So the stuff on the Internet is the product of fools, shills, and delusional losers.

Yeah, AQ Inc. may have something in the works, and it may be "big", but then again they may be in the process of utter meltdown. I do trust the USG to put a seriously destructive and frightening wrench into their plans and their organization.

Now that is freaky.

There may be many red flags. But this one was hoisted on the 'virgin' voyage of the Queen Mary 2, at this point in time, when people are very concerned about terror attacks. It's a flag that just appeared in the news photos, on the world's largest cruiseship, flown by a queen named Mary. It was on another woman, the SOL, where a red flag also prominately waved. Turned out, it was just prior to 911.

Thus, I merely point out that Queen Mary 2 is/was waving a red flag. She's headed toward Florida. The Queen Mary thread details her opulance and glamour. Most passengers are from North America.

I agree that the Queen Mary is a potential target, unforunately. I misunderstood the question - I thought you were trying to ID the red flag. Sorry for the misunderstanding - hope I did not offend.

Can anyone fill me in on this stuff?

See my post at #9805. It was written by fullwave and I passed it along. It seems that various investigators have determined that this fullwave guy is a disruptor or disinformationist... a fraud. I think that is why he was kicked off the Yahoo group.

"I don't have to translate to understand, if that makes sense."

Yes! That makes sense, as do your explanations. Thank you.
Knowing absolutely nothing about Arabic, I was curious if there was more intended than met the eye.

Now, if we can figure a way to make them all 'dead' instead of 'martyred'.

Good Morning, (waiting for that cup of coffee)

This Minn. thread, makes me want to comment.

Minn. has water, isn't it the 9,999 lake state? They have water, which is rare in the muslim countries.

It is also safe to say they are white and Christian, a threat to the muslims.

It has "Twin Cities", that says Twin Towers to me.

I checked the explosion thread, it doesn't have any cause of explosion listed yet.

I drove thru Minnesota in 1958, it was lovely, clean and green. That is all that is needed for a muslim to destroy it.

I hope someone posts details of the flag. That would be interesting. I'll have to see what I can find at FOTW.

Many Turks are blue eyed and green eyed, as are many Palestinians. If you look at Islamic history and look how far up into Europe and into the Soviet Republics Islam spread many years ago, it's not surprising. Captives were taken off to be slaves, women often to the harems of the caliphs, and the offspring who had light complexions, eyes, and hair were considered to be exceptionally beautiful.

When I get some time I'll dig out that map and the details on how far up into Europe Islam spread during the dark ages.

re post no. 10487...

Thank you very much StillProud2BeFree for that translation.

Yup. Lavendar oil is such magic that after my last (very) bad burn, I was ready to write a booklet about it and self-publish it!

I spilled BOILING water all over the top of my left hand, I knew it was going to be the worst burn I've ever had. I soaked it in cold water while searching for the lavendar oil. After about a half hour or less in the cold water, I kept sprinkling it on the burn, every time the pain started sneaking in. After about two hours of that, I slapped some wet clay on it, and went to bed. When I woke up there was no sign of any burn except a few pinkish tender spots.

I have used aloe a lot before (used to have many plants when I lived in a warmer climate) and although aloe is indeed wonderful, if I could have only one I'd take lavendar oil.

(I know quite a bit about natural home remedies... essential oils, herbs, and so on.)

The Red Ensign:

Any ship registered in a British port, which includes ports in Overseas Territories and Dependencies, is subject to the Merchant Shipping Act. Certain sections of the Act describe the flag that should be flown, which is the Red Ensign "without any defacement or modification whatsoever". The warrant or order in council is a legal document which exempts certain defined ships from this requirement and indicates the authorised defacement.

R4E - Well stated position - I can't find much in there to disagree with at all. I guess my only point was that our government needs to continue looking for these clowns (eom, daleel, etc.) and shut them down even if they are 100% baloney, because there are undoubtedly other clowns out there who take them seriously.

Other, than that, I'm with you - loving and enjoying life - just keeping my eyes open.

Blessings to you also.

Aha! Interesting.
