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.

"The good folks of this country must learn to get ugly, real ugly, in order to fight this satanic influence and win."

I prefer the words of Josie Wales, when he is telling his companions what they need to do if it appears they will be defeated: "That's when you have to get MEAN, red-dog MEAN!"

I knew a couple Moslems when I was in school, as well, but they were from Morocco. But the same thing: They had a very deep hatred of America and the West. I asked one of them why the hell then was he over here, going to school at one of the infidel's universities. That s.o.b. said, without batting an eye, but laughing, as if it was the funniest thing, that he was here to learn from America how to kill America. The guy was a science major, I believe.

MENS NEWS DAILY.com: "Source Tells Reporter 'We have everything ready and set' AL QAEDA THREATEN NEW YORK, WASHINGTON AND LOS ANGELES" by Jeremy Reynalds (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A similar message was received by this reporter when under the guise of being a Molsem sympathetic to the cause he wrote to Almojahid that he wanted to help. "I have funds to buy what you need to kill the kaffir. I need bank account, wiring instructions and location..." The response received from Almojahid by this reporter read , "We are more than thankful for the sweet words you wrote, but we have everything ready and set thank you so much and please make your plans to move out if you are in the cities of LA, NY or the east side. Go north as much as possible as you know this is a war. May God protect you and protect all our brothers and sisters."") (September 3, 2003) (Read More...)

This kind of corroboration is incredible.

Free Republic is incredible.

It really is. This story made the local news last night - almost 48 hours after FR reported, researched and analyzed it.

It is frightening really, I think we would call it sociopathic in this country.

What you describe in your post is a good description of the islamics in the booths. I think I said they were cold. They looked at me with an iciness at one fair that made me tell my husband later that I was sure they were hating me for being a woman and not wearing a veil and for having the audacity to question them.

It's actually very funny. Heck, if it turns out that there's substantial merit to this we may even go to "red apple" alert

The location is blocks away from the "al-Taqwa" (and other) terror mosques, including the NOI 'mosque' where DC sniper mohammad attended.

Well there's home base, or one of them. I knew these guys at fairs were not your average muslim. It's just wierd that they set up booths at fairs, even at one where a 9-11 huge memorial took place. I used to have a link for a newspaper article that mentioned their booth at this fair and commented on their courage in being there.

I can't believe the guy would just walk away from such a plum position. I mean, you know the old saying, "an apple a day keeps the infidels away."

Maybe it's just sour grapes.

Thanks for the update freeperfromnj. Stay safe up there.

Jonalvy44, locked and loaded down here as well.

I'm heading out for a hunting trip from the 17th to the 30th so I'll be in a safe place with a group of well armed hunters if anything does happen.

I'll keep all Freepers in the target areas in my prayers when I'm gone. May the Lord watch over us all.

I, ZULU, threaten Al Quaida.

I will resurrect Vlad Tepes and turn him loose on you. Also, I will resurrect Charlemagne, Saint Iago Matamoros and Richard the Lionhearted and turn them all loose on Al Quaida and its followers and supporters. The ghosts of ten thousand Kinghts Templars will march upon you in the night.

Al Quaida - idle threats will get you as far as lunatic attacks. We will bury you.

Maybe its just the new and improved tin foil that I purchased last month, but I have a really bad feeling this time. Although I'm in the northern burbs and probably far enough away to avoid the immediate impact of a major attack (unless I happen to be in the target area on that day), I'm close enough to suffer the way we suffered after 09.11. If the Feds were to foil a major attack in the next few days, I wonder if they would even tell us. I would like to know because at least we would be re-reminded of the dangers that we continue to face and reassure us that someone was doing their job. Stay vigilent and keep us up to date on the Yemini fruit guy.

I find it interesting that this story is beginning to pick up steam, yet no one from Homeland Security has addressed the issue. I expect that in the next several days, they will either claim there is no threat or elevate the alert system. I don't believe they will stay mum on this matter, as more media outlets are reporting it.
