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.

US launches worldwide hunt for Al-Qaeda's bombmaker


New York: U.S. intelligence agencies have launched a worldwide manhunt for Al-Qaeda's master bombmaker, who, they contend, may be building a 'dirty' bomb and other new devices for terror attacks inside the United States, a media report has said.

U.S. counter-terrorism officials were quoted by the New York Post as saying that it was new information about the activities of Egyptian-born bomb maker Midhat Mursi, in part, that led the Bush administration to secretly dispatch Department of Energy radiological detection teams to New York and four other cities at New Year's eve.

Before the Bush administration decided to raise the nationwide alert level to Code Orange, an al Qaeda informant had said that Mursi, who goes by the nom de guerre Abu Khabab, was active again, intelligence officials told The Post.

Intelligence officials said Mursi is a chemical engineer who was head of al Qaeda's weapons-of-mass-destruction committee and reported directly to Al-Qaeda's number- two, Ayman al-Zawahiri.

[Letitring]

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL!

[Letitring]

The one with all the text? I dunno but is alot of whatever it is.

[WestCoastGal]

Good question, what IS he doing in Mexico and is it just coincidence that EOM said he/she/it was going to Mexico? Here is a great story on Mursi AKA Khabab. A camp in Afghanistan was named after him where they did all their biological and bomb training. (maybe we can make a shish ka bab out of him)

The West has set forth with America at the lead nowadays to the gathering of its power, and they have surrounded the Arabic island like a bracelet on the wrist and under the cover of attacking an Iraq and anti-terrorism and the people continuing to drown in the pleasures, oblivious to that which occurs around them, then do from a direction to the nation towards this, especially in preparation, for God's sake.

Thanks :) Maybe our wonderful translator has proped her eyes open with toothpicks and is having a look at it ?

[oceanview]

i hadn't been following this thread that closely the last week or so. When did EOM say he was going to Mexico, or was that just an IP trace to one of his posts? Loftus said the master bombmaker was travelling with "a couple of people".

[Revel]

Well it is definately Anti American. Is that all of it ? :)
