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

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.

It certainly sounds like they are saying everything is in place, doesn't it?

[Mossad1967]

Not feeling to good about that one.

[Letitring]

Yes, it's awful and I haven't felt like this EVER before. I felt a sense of impending doom before 2001. After the WTC collapsed and during it, I was calm. Have been having this sense of impending doom since November, and it's worse this time, much worse.

[Mossad1967]

I am experiencing the exact same things.

[Letitring]

Of course, it could be my health, or indigestion or something like that, but... it isn't my nature to have to struggle with a deep sense of foreboding.

[Letitring]

Well, they say even animals can sense when something isn't right, so why not us?

After reading that message you posted on Yahoo, I'm feeling apprehensive. Although I have been since all of this started, I feel they are on a countdown to their attack. That message mentioned "Murrah" could that be like the building in Oklahoma that McVeigh blew up?

[oceanview]

from what location is he supposed to be posting from now? still Mexico?

[Letitring]

In fact, it was my discomfort that lead me to this thread, in the first place. I just knew something was going on, or about to happen.

[Letitring]

What did 67 post on Yahoo? I can't read those messages unless they are posted over here.

[WestCoastGal]

Go to #13012, it's transferred over here.

[Letitring]

Do you think, based on that last message, all they are waiting for now is a go signal? Or, do you think they have the 'go?'

[StillProud2BeFree]

Mossad, I am having the same feeling. Like a feeling of - I'm not sure - if I were a Star Wars fan I'd say "a disturbance in the force", if that makes sense.

Actually, Kennedy looks a bit like Mrs. Dean...

[Mossad1967]

I think they have had the "Go" for some time.

[WestCoastGal]

It just seemed to me that Condi Rice and Tom Ridge looked very worried tonight. I just wonder what is really going on behind the scenes. How many law enforcement are out tracking these guys down. You would think if the internet posts were hoaxes then those people would be in jail by now.

[Mossad1967]

You are right on the mark!

[Letitring]

Ug. Makes sense. What they are waiting for is their timing, then. Right?

[WestCoastGal]

What do you think of my Murrah theory? That's not exactly an arab word.

[Cindy]

Actually, Kennedy looks a bit like Mrs. Kerry...
