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.

AMMAN, Jordan - Jordan's military prosecutor Tuesday recommended the death penalty for 11 men accused in an al-Qaida-linked plot to carry out terror attacks on Americans and Israelis that began with the slaying of a U.S. aid worker in Jordan."

This would be the US diplomat Laurence Foley. It is believed he was assassinated by operatives of al-Zarqawi on behalf of Saddam Hussein. Zarqawi is also believed to be the person who aided terrorists in Europe in obtaining the toxin 'ricin.'

But why the Wannabe e-mail? Wannabe claims to reside in Canada, so Wannabe is not you. Why put that e-mail on the EOM page you crafted?

Well, hugs. Thank you so very much. Yea. 800 miles. 8 days.

[Letitring]

No, not at all. Where is it? I've been googling. :)

Thanks. I'll look it over. :)

You don't travel 100 or even 80 miles a day on horseback.You get 25 maybe if on a good steed.

[eastforker]

No way 800 miles in 8 days on a horse, are y'all crazy?

[tapatio]

It would take three to four weeks to ride 800 miles on a horse,and it depends alot on the terrain you are riding in.

[eastforker]

Exactly, too many westerns on TV will distort ones point of view.

[Letitring]

LOL. Naw, I'm a little goofy, but not crazy, yet. I've no idea about horses and would believe whatever anybody told me, about same. The closest I've ever been to a horse is behind a trailer on the freeway. :)

[eastforker]

Have you ever noticed that Matt Dillon would have a two day ride and be in mountains from Dodge City Kansas?

[eastforker]

Let me tell ya, if ya got 25-30 miles out of a horse per day, don't sell him just yet, you got a winner.

[Letitring]

What kind of horse did the 'prophet' ride?

[Letitring]

Well, maybe the prophets trip from medina to tiram is quoted somewhere, along with the time it took him to do that. Maybe. I hope.

>>>No, you got lurkers.

good morning all.....I got up this morning (earlier) and ran to the computer to see if any wonderful news was in the breaking news section. Maybe tomorrow!!! Anything else happening today?

[eastforker]

I have no idea, but it wasn't Super Horse.A horse walks about the same speed as a human, about 2 miles an hour. You can not run a horse for any extended amount of time and expect him to last, like I said, too many westerns showing galloping horses running for miles.
