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.

Don't get me wrong, Weird NJ IS...hmmm, for teens that had too much to drink and are bored on a Saturday night?

BUT, they are the only in print coverage of the NJ Underground Tunnels.

I do lend them credit; cause their coverage of the ones I know are legit. Can't vouch for the rest though.

Join here Cvenger: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eom_and_daleel/chat

I started uploading the some of the docs I downloaded from the Daleel Site. Many of us have saved all different bits and pieces from the EOM and Daleel boards. Since the Yahoo group lets you upload files and create folders, I'm assuming this is where we are all going to put our bits and pieces to create a better viewable documentation.

It also has a live chat that we don't have here a FR. I think this is valuable too.

NXT????

FWIW, Multiple NXT platforms can be combined to generate more than 250,000 simultaneous calls. The technology supports TDM over DS-3 interfaces, SS7 and ISDN signaling, IP signaling and media streaming.

Hack or hijack to overload the communication system?

Or, NXT? NXT is a U.S. oil and natural gas exploration company based in Calgary, Alberta, with exploration operations in the U.S. and Canada. The company utilizes its SFD technology as a wide-area exploration tool to prospect for high impact oil and gas accumulations. NXT's SFD technology is a unique, low‑cost, airborne system that is used to identify subsurface structures, such as faults, fractures, salt collapse and over-pressured reservoirs with considerable accuracy. The primary component of the SFD is a proprietary passive transducer that responds to energy associated with subsurface stress. The SFD technology enables NXT to acquire, process and evaluate data for large areas in minimal time. The speed and low cost of the SFD technology provides NXT with a significant competitive advantage in developing prospects and evaluating potential acquisitions. In other operational developments the 11-18-25-27w4 well at Dalroy east of Calgary that was drilled and completed in March 2003 will be tied into the gas gathering system in July. The initial production test of this first well (Belly River group, 870ft) reported average gas flow rates of 600 thousand cubic feet per day. NXT has a 22.5% working interest in this prospect.

Maybe a spelunking club would have a map of caves. Also the underground railroad used caves and tunnels so a historical association might have one as well. Decades ago I worked in a hospital in Philly that had at least two subterranean tunnels under their main tunnel between the hospital and the annex (old TB hospital) that went back to the early 1800s as part of the underground railroad.

FWIW,

The Belly River and Edmonton groups each exhibit a similar kind of stratigraphic architecture with a hierarchy of sequences and sub-sequences that provides evidence for changes in (1) regional tectonism, (2) relative sea level, and (3) climate. Both units are strongly non-marine and, thus, “cryptic” sequence-boundaries are present in both. Cryptic sequence-boundaries are typically identified by stratigraphic changes in channel stacking, paleocurrent data, coarse-fine sediment ratios, paleosol and/or organic facies development, and taphofacies of vertebrate and other fossils. Belly River Group: In the Plains of southern Alberta the Belly River Group (a.k.a. the Judith River Group) consists of three formations: in ascending order, Foremost, Oldman and Dinosaur Park. Each exhibits a characteristic geometry, petrography, and lithostratigraphy. Figures 1 & 2 are regional-scale dip- and strike-oriented cross-sectional schematics, respectively, that show the distribution and preservational geometries of these formations. The Foremost reflects a major phase of basinward progradation for the Belly River Group. Its lower one-half consists of coarsening-upward parasequences (Hamblin and Abrahamson, 1996; Gordon, 2001) that inter-finger with the Pakowki (Claggett) Fm. The stacking patterns of these parasequences vary from strongly progradational to vertically-aggraded reflecting complex relationships through time between sediment supply and accommodation. A prominent basinward shift in facies marks the Ribstone Creek parasequence and its underlying sequence boundary. The Taber coal zone represents a province-wide (west-east) emplacement of a high water table and swampy, low-gradient conditions and thus, is best interpreted as a middle to late Transgressive 75thAnniversary of CSPG Convention, June 3-7, 2002 Canadian Society of Petroleum Geologists

2 Systems Tract (TST). Historically, the Oldman-Foremost contact has been placed at the top of the Taber coal zone, however, there is a prominent province-wide zone of amalgamated paleochannels (Herronton sandstone zone) that overlies the coal zone and is better included, for compositional reasons, in the Foremost. The Herronton sandstone zone is a stratigraphic interval of low accommodation, most likely representing a late Highstand Systems Tract (HST). The transition to the overlying Oldman is easily recognized in well logs by a strong and sometimes multi-cyclic increase in gamma response (most probably caused by an increase in potassium-rich feldspars), and in outcrop by a notable absence of coals and much lighter sediment colors that reflect the more mature composition of the sediments. The Oldman is exclusively alluvial in Alberta and records the maximum basinward extent of Belly River Group clastics. It consists of upward-fining paleochannel sandstones and a variety of fine members that represent channel top, channel margin and heavily rooted overbank paleoenvironments. The Oldman is subdivided into three informal stratigraphic units based on paleochannel geometry and stacking patterns. The lower and upper units display lenticular paleochannel geometries and represent zones of moderate accommodation. The middle unit (Comrey sandstone zone) consists of decameter-thick, amalgamated sandstone bodies with sheet-like to lenticular geometries. The Comrey reflects a low accommodation setting and appears to be underlain by a cryptic sequence-boundary. In this context the fill can be regarded as having been deposited in an early TST. Evidence for tidal features in the upper Comrey succession (Troke, 1993; Hills, this session) suggest a marine influence, increasing accommodation, and thus, deposition in an early or middle TST (cf. Shanley and McCabe, 1994). Above the Comrey, in the upper unit of the Oldman, paleochannels are well-separated and there is a sub-equal paleochannel-overbank ratio indicating greater accommodation that is characteristic of a middle-to-late TST. Along west-east dip sections (Fig. 1) the Oldman is essentially tabular and flat-based, whereas it thickens considerably to the southwest (Fig. 2), indicating northwestern Montana as the unit’s primary source area. This source designation is also supported by paleocurrent data (Eberth and Hamblin, 1993). The contact between the Oldman and Dinosaur Park formations is strongly diachronous from north to south (Fig. 2) and records the southeastward progradation of the Dinosaur Park Formation clastic wedge during the rapid transgression of the Bearpaw Sea. The Dinosaur Park overlies the Oldman gradationally-to-erosionally and consists of a lower, sandy alluvial zone and an upper muddy and coaly succession (Lethbridge coal zone). The lower sandy zone is dominated by multimeter-thick paleochannel deposits with extraformational pebbles, immature sandstones, and muddy, inclined-heterolithic-strata (IHS). Although there is little evidence for tidally-influenced paleoenvironments at the base of the formation, the top of the formation hosts mud-filled incised valleys that have been interpreted as tidally-influenced 75thAnniversary of CSPG Convention, June 3-7, 2002 Canadian Society of Petroleum Geologists

Belly River Group

Belly River Group Water Chemistry Arsenic

Nine of the 11 coal or mixed coal-sandstone aquifer water samples from the Belly River Group have As concentrations above the detection limit of 0.0002 mg/L. The mean concentration is 0.0012 mg/L with a standard deviation of 0.0036 mg/L (N=11). Three of the five wells completed in Belly River Group sandstone aquifers have As concentrations above the detection limit of 0.0002 mg/L. The mean As concentration is 0.0009 mg/L with a standard deviation of 0.023 mg/L (N=5).

A maximum acceptable concentration of 0.025 mg/L has been established for domestic water use. A maximum concentration of 0.005 mg/L has been established for the protection of freshwater aquatic life. Maximum concentrations of 0.100 mg/L and 0.025 mg/L have been established for the use of water for irrigation and livestock purposes respectively. None of the coal or mixed coal-sandstone aquifer water samples have As concentrations that exceed the guideline values.

Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks that those in authority over us continue to seek any and all who would do us harm. We thank You, Father, for their decided commitment to protect the American people, and despite negative comments from governments and citizens, they continue to do so. We uphold each one before the Throne of Grace, and thank You that You have given us such dedicated men and women who stand in our defense. Keep us ever vigilant, that we might be seen by the enemy as a nation strong and fierce and relentless in the pursuit of those who would shed innocent blood.

Heavenly Father, I pray that You would work through all the words spoken regarding the crash of the Egyptian airliner. Comfort the families of those who have been lost ... may the governments concerned be focused on the truth of this crash, rather than dismiss any possibility of terrorism. You know the truth, O God, and I pray that You would put it before the people. Give special grace to the rescuers, for theirs is a task that must be done in the midst of horror. Bind up the hearts of the grieving, as only You can.

We continue before the Throne of Grace, Merciful Father, that we might live in peace and safety, here in our own beloved country, and throughout the nations of the world. Go before us, I pray, that there would be victory in the war on terrorism, in the Name of Jesus, Amen ...

"Hire paranoids, they may have a high false alarm rate, but they discover all the plots".

ROFLOL!!! Priceless....the real key is to place ones tongue firmly in cheek prior to paranoia.

Actually I don't think any here are paranoid but I think many have held onto the creative "what if" from their childhood...and that makes for even better and more accurate plot development. With all our life experiences, if we can help in surfacing anything for our country, we are happy to do so. Even the most obsure or oblique connection might be the one that is needed.

>>>That much being said, the word "belly" may be relevant: the concordance of "belly of the beast" with "belly of my coat." Also, the French word for "coat," "manteau," is a part of the French word for "large suitcase," "portmanteau." The word "port" (i.e., seaport) is the same in both English and French. The talk on this thread and elsewhere about "suitcase" nukes made me think of that. So "manteau" could allude both to a large suitcase and perhaps also a seaport. Or neither.

Huh.
