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

I have come to the conclusion that our chain is being jerked allot..

Heartily agree! We've heard for MONTHS how we are "all going to die soon". Yet, time ticks on, and we are all still here - and I wager will be 12 months as well as 12 years from now.

I am not discounting the overall threat, and think that AQ probably DOES have WMD. But I think we've foiled many potential attacks and will continue to do so.

I also think there's a whole lot of crackpots just posting to 'net BBs as they don't have any other way to hit us. That, and people who outright hate the US and just want to scare us into submission (hint: it's not working). Finally, I think there are (sadly) also people who run "analysis" websites who have other motivations for helping to stir the pot up a bit.

All of this contributes to a high noise/signal ratio, IMHO, although we certainly have to take a look at everything and consider it fully.

Does this qualify as the longest FR thread yet?

I was just thinking the same thing. Maybe Jim will have to allocate some of that Fresno settlement money to buying more storage for his servers! :-)

I've heard the original 9/11 attack was suppose to be much bigger. Not sure why it wasn't.

I think your right on about the WH. I don't think AQ is going to quit until it's dust or they're dust.

Thanks for reminding me that the AQ threat is global. I tend to forget that.

Haven't heard anymore reports about the chem warheads in Iraq.

I'm heading home for now. See you all tomorrow. Prayers out to all for a safe night.

One thing which does concern me about the successes of our efforts at frustrating these Islamokazi freaks, and that is the possibility of Americans becoming complacent, and - God forbid - electing an Edwards or a Kerry to the White House come November...

"Get reel"

OK.

Google on your post. Nothing of great import, but here is what I found.

Murrah: Obviously the OKC building; former Gov. of Texas; a breed of cow; a breed of buffalo;

Jameelah: an African name; the first American jewish woman to become muslim her story here Although if you look at the bottom of the link there is a list of books she has written. By the titles some seem to talk about Islam vs. the West, etc.

>> That is, they may talk about large body counts, but those are not as important as exactitude in place and time. <<

Interesting insight. Thanks!

Jameelah is Arabic for beautiful; it can also be used as a name. You'll see it spelled Jamila and Gamila too. It's the feminine form; the masculine form of the adjective beautiful is Jamil or Gamil. Again you'll see it used as a name.

[Oorang]

I have no idea what to make of it, but this part makes me nervous
" All other teams have entered through Mexico points and safely entered through Canadian crossings."

[Toespi]

Precisely, they had one shot at us and they used it on September 11th. If they had access to or possessed WMDs of any type, we would have eaten them that day because it was use them or lose them. Why throw sticks of you have logs?

[Oorang]

Ahh, thank you. I did not know that Murrah had an Arabic meaning, althought I'm not happy with what it means.

Can you tell what this means: Astowda Okomallah Abdur Rahman

[swarthyguy]

THe Blind Sheikh Abdul Rahman? In Marion, I think.

A book called the The Cell talks about how some jihadis were hatching plots to break him out.

He was the inspiration behind WTC1 and could be called the Father of Jihad in America.

[StillProud2BeFree]

Why throw logs if you have sticks? Well first, four airplanes aren't exactly low tech weapons. The WTC collapses have the seismic impact of a magnitute 2 earthquake if memory serves me correctly.

Secondly, the Islamists have an apocalyptic agenda to carry out, cultimating with the return of the mahdi, who side by side with Jesus defeats the Anti-Christ (Dajjal) by slaying him with Al-Battar, the sword of the prophets. In order for the mahdi to be declared a whole series of events have to take place.

September 11 was but one chess piece on the board. To reach checkmate, the other pieces have to be lined up just right.

If anyone is interested, I can post an analysis that I have written about this.

Again, we're talking a different culture, and mindset. We aren't going to understand it.

[Oorang]

Thanks for that info. Let's hope they have more security in place than what they are telling the public (being slightly facetious here :-), I'm sure they do)

[Oorang]

Right, I had forgotten about him. He had quite the following, didn't he? Is he in a maximum security prison, in New York?

[swarthyguy]

By now, he's prolly in an undisclosed location.

I'd read Marion Illinois but that may have changed.

Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks that we approach the State of the Union address without anguish that terrorism has touched our soil once more. Greatly are You to be praised, Father, for as vigilant as we are, only You can prevent the enemy from piercing those places where we have been lax. Continue to look with favor upon us, I pray, not by merit of our own, but because You are a loving and merciful God ... You are the foundation on which our beloved country was founded ... let us not forget the benefits You have provided.

May our countrymen be assured that our safety and security are foremost for our President ... grant him good success, for he looks to You for wisdom and guidance. Let all who are charged with our care be like-minded ... vigilant and knowledgeable and swift and sure. Hold back all attempts to do us harm, for we cherish our liberty and life. Draw the hearts of other nations to this country, that they desire freedom and liberty ... grant them courage and conviction to completely destroy the tide of terrorism that threatens every nation.

May we continue to go about in safety because of the thousands who stand guard over us ... protect them with the power of Your might and grant them good success, in the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...

Actually, I've read all of this thread as well. And for the life of me I don't recall seeing one statement that said anyone had to endure this thread or any other. :>)
