Al Qaeda again threatens New York, Washington and Los Angeles - Daily Terror Threat
Debka ^ | 11-3-2003 | Staff

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.

I was nervous about coming into the city today too. Once I got here and checked out the massive security they have in place I'm not worried at all. They may have something planned for a future attack but I doubt they will pull anything off tonight. Not with airspace closed off, blackhawk helicopters patrolling the skies, cement barricades in place, sharp shooters on rooftops, no traffic allowed anywhere near the area and each individual subject to search and metal detectors.

It seems that we are doing everything possible. ( I still think about that "frogman" image, for some reason.)

That image has stuck with me every day since I first saw it...even more so than the one with Bin Laden and the moon. I don't know why, either...

Yeah, I'm curious, too. He had previously told me that he had lived in NYC. He said he was looking for a position as a translator- arabic/french/english.

Hi Folks,
Just catching up on the thread again. Thanks to all the information, research, and eye witness accounts. Very much appreciated.

I'm praying hard that nothing bad happens tonight, tomorrow, or anytime for that matter. Looks like the authorities have done a pretty good job. Hope everyone stays safe.

I'm heading out for a New Years gathering tonight (just a few friends) and a morning deer hunt tomorrow. Can't think of a better way to bring in the new year.

Stay safe everyone and have a Happy New Year!

None of the Muslims I see here in NJ have left. I spoke with the young daughter of one last night on the phone. She is still home. Her father is one of the one's I am alert to.

Shays would want to make Bush look bad, he masquerades as a Republican

I'll say. Next to RINO in the dictionary is a picture of Shays.

Yep,mayhaps we'll meet up,hope so.I knew "you" meant sarcasm but wouldn't want to give a "lurker" the wrong idea. :o)

Just before signup,I'd been selling to a new buyer that needed help getting a start,as he only had a couple greenhorns that worked with his gear,that he'd bought used without much knowledge,as he was a foreigner.Lots of my catch is live and goes overseas.

He began treating me as one of his boys because I "really" tried to give him a start but he wanted more and more all the time and was costing me too much time and money.

Finally,I was fed up and told him he just wasn't used to Americans that were independent folks and "listen,I'm not your trapper but a free trapper with plenty of other buyers".

At least I had a handle in mind when I signed on. :)

Islamic Extremist "TODAY IS THE DAY!"...!
Note, what I'm about to show you is up for speculation as always. This guy, who goes by the alias "EOM", or an Angel of the Mujahadin(sp?), has claimed that he warned us days before the 9/11 attacks. There are various individuals who say, it's true, they were around when he warned us. He posts on a very popular behind the scenes News board. We've been following his posts for quite sometime, for he's been warning of an impending attack. Today, he has finally posted this...

Not as confused as I am. I am sure this is all being assimilated and analyzed in light of the heightened alert.

Brazil judge orders U.S. citizens fingerprinted 12/29/03 A Brazilian judge furious at U.S. plans to fingerprint and photograph Brazilians entering the United States has ordered Brazil to do the same to U.S. citizens, police said on Tuesday.

Guess that Brazilian judge just doesn't realize that to get a visa to enter Brazil, you already have to submit a copy of a police check on yourself. The US should be doing the same or similar to anyone who enters this country, I think!
