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

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 wonder if his search engine works on hits of search words.

From you? Not yet.

I do share your concern about EOM . . . the guy's dug himself a hole so deep he'll never be taken seriously again if something doesn't happen in the immediate future to justify his threats . . . that makes me uneasy and I appreciate the work you are doing to try to intervene in a positive way . . .

That was the URL for the flight tracking site that I posted. You can locate in air if you have the flight number and airline.

[texasbluebell]

Just checked the link you posted, for both LAX and Las Vegas, but no flight 730 is showing up there.

Sorry Cal, new here, I thought by sending a private reply you'd get it your Freep Mail.

I'll try again.

[texasbluebell]

Sorry, I didn't mean to criticize, but I don't think people here are getting panicked, frankly.

And yes, we'll all post as we please, matter of fact.

[Calpernia]

Do you know where Doug is tonight? I can't reach anyone of my contacts from USAHSSC.

[Calpernia]

That is the correct way to do it; but you may have hit Private Reply to the wrong freeper.

Remember, EOM claims it will start in London . . . so an initial European flight makes sense, with the follow-on hits later to LAX & Las Vagas . . .

[tmp02]

"benladen" is also in that list of cached terms that you posted. FYI

[texasbluebell]

Yes, the claim is London is the start. I was assuming that meant that attacks would happen there first, but maybe that's the wrong assumption.

No there is some thread about a hobit hole that hit the MAX of over 65,000 posts. There is not a whole lot of intelligent posting on it though. The whole point seemed to be to just to hit that MAX.

Actually, while we were the first thread to hit the maximum number of posts (and we were recently heading to do it again) that's a pretty ignorant statement. We're now on our fifth thread.

And in spite what you may think in your limited ability, you do need people of intelligence on this sort of mission...quest...thread...

Just because you don't understand us, do not misunderestimate the significance of the Hobbit Hole.

Sometimes there was... but then we would get distracted...

[Calpernia]

It brought back different images with nonesense words. Why is Ahlam hu Akhbar associated with a plane and well, the image association could mean a target.

Why those words and image associations?

[Professional Engineer]

Distracted? Us?

[HairOfTheDog]

Was I just arriving? - Or just leaving?

I typed in "dairy" and it came up with a foggy field and tree picture...and "Kabul" it had some feet with white power spread around

re your post no. 5025...

Yep, I've seen a lenthy discussion among scholars, clerics, and others who wondered if they should have nukes or not, but that was within
the last six months. Your article looks more recent.

Thanks.
