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.

"Solicitor General Theodore Olson told justices in a one-paragraph filing that ''this matter pertains to information that is required to be kept under seal.''"

That paragraph from your article tells me it is an unusual case and If Ted Olson says that's how it should be I believe him. The only thing that bothers me is this guy is out on bail??

I find it hard to believe that they would drop the alert now. We still have those missing from the Air France flights and all the chatter about the other flights, why would those that intended to hijack those flights have a change of heart?

"On some of the busier jihadi sites, yes, the internet chatter is decreasing. (My fervent hope is that they were arrested, killed, or getting paranoid and that is why their web sites have slowed to a crawl)."

They usually disappear right before something happens don't they?

Yes, that's what somebody said. They quit talking and start acting. That msg. earlier today certainly looked like it was a go signal. I'm no expert, just trying to learn.

First let me say to all who read this thread I am overwhelmed at the responses. OVERWHELMED!!! I, really will really, really try to answer each and every one. I promise. Some are overlapping questions, but I will post a response to all of them. (Good Lord, how ever do the moderators deal with all this? Incredible. They must be super-human or people like me and just knee deep to a tall Indian ( I am part Cherokee, so pun intended ;) )

But rest assured I am reading every single syllable posted. It's extremely difficult to answer pings, but hey, I will go for it as long as I can stay awake and coherent.
My focus is on current threats IAW the currently known threat prfile, which is: an NBC attack in one form or another.
