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.

You're onto something, baltodog! Look at what a hit CHICAGO was....hmmmmm...(thinking, thinking, thinking)....I'm thinking something like THE PRODUCERS. Now start brainstorming for titles ("The Thread," "Posters," "Springtime for Al Qaeda" - I think you can see where we're going!) and rough out a draft...I smell money! Someone get me Mel Brook's number!!<8^)

I will. Sorry.

This is my last post here.

Look at the accusations against me.

Revel, in a post above writes that I'm a middle eastern when I am, in fact, a native born American who loves my country.

Just saw this:

Yemen Qaeda to avenge US killing of leader
24 Jan 2004 20:04:05 GMT



SANAA, Jan 24 (Reuters) - A Yemeni Web site published on Saturday a statement purporting to come from the Yemeni wing of al Qaeda, in which it vowed to attack the United States to avenge the 2002 killing of its leader by a CIA drone aircraft.

The statement, which could not be authenticated, said Osama bin Laden's network had over the past year prepared a "devastating and crushing blow in the United States that will happen soon".

It would be in retaliation for the death of Ali al-Harthi, who was killed by a missile fired by the pilotless CIA drone at his car in eastern Yemen.

The statement, published on the al-Sahwa and other Islamist Web sites, gave no details about the proposed attack.

Harthi, and his aide Mohammad Hamdi al-Ahdal who was arrested last year, were suspected of responsibility for the 2000 bombing of the U.S. warship Cole in Yemen's Aden harbour, which killed 17 American sailors.

Yemen, seen in the West as a haven for al Qaeda, is bin Laden's ancestral homeland and has cooperated closely with the United States to crush his network.

Diplomats say that Yemen has largely succeeded in breaking the back of the group, but some militants remain at large.

65,535 posts and the thread will be full up. Then someone may be kind enough to start "Al Qaeda again threatens New York, Washington and Los Angeles, Part Deux".

Re: the article in Freeport Texas, shooting of guard by middle eastern man taking pictures of BASF Corp. ammonia terminal in Freeport, Texas is troubling. Here is a map of the area and a link to the port website.

Wind in the Turban gets my vote :)

It is indeed troubling. A cloud of ammonia would do what? Extremely abrasive, lethal cloud, what? Lemme go look it up.
