I have to say right now while I can it's just been a real pleasure to be here on this thread with all of you.

WCG, I can only hope we'll all still be here in a few days, and able to communicate, though I echo your sentiments...

I don't post much, but am always here reading -- it's comforting to know that all of you share my concerns for these days.

Here's something from a search on "the three hundred freedom fighters.

http://www.westminsterpres.com/sermons/sermon_06-4-00.htm

Well, Gideon returned to camp and didn't waste a moment. He woke his men and said, "Each of you take a trumpet and a jar with a torch in it and follow me. When we get to the Midianite camp each of you is to do exactly as I do. No questions." The three hundred freedom fighters followed Gideon's orders with precision. They surrounded the Midianite camp silently, during the darkest watch of the night (the second watch - when most of the camp would be soundly asleep).

At a pre-arranged signal, all three hundred soldiers blasted their trumpets, broke open their jars and lit their torches, then they all let out a blood-curdling battle cry: "For the Lord - and for Gideon!" 135,000 troops stumbled from the tents in total blackout. (By then the campfires were nothing but smoldering embers.) Everyone was out of uniform. And in the mayhem that ensued, three hundred Israelite troops stood above the valley and witnessed 135,000 Midianite soldiers hacking away at each other in the dark.

They also mentioned this morning the roof will be closed at Reliant.

That would do it. Thanks!

Our marina at Lake Erie houses about 700 boats, ranging in size from 15 feet to 60 feet and of course, the prices go up as the size goes up. We are docked on the channel that goes into Sandusky Bay and these are for larger boats. The slip right next to us became available and a small 20 footer rented it, which was silly because he was paying twice as much for a slip the size that he didn't need. He was a middle easterner about 55 years old and was there maybe twice during the summer of 2002. The weekdays at our marina are dead, as people only come on the weekends. My husband and I decided to take the middle of the week off and when we showed up there were three MEs on the boat, there were carrying about five small cargo boxes off the boat and putting them in a truck. These guys were young and very strange acting when we arrived. I tried to ask them some questions and they spoke little if no English. I called the FBI the next day. The boat was gone two weeks later. This past summer, 2003, we were talking to a lady who owns a pizza shop near the marina, she told us that three FBI terrorist experts had been staying in Marblehead for the week. They showed her their cards and asked her questions about certain things she may have seen in the area. The largest concern for this area is the easy access to American water from Canada via the Detroit River. Didn't mean to ramble on but thought it was interesting.

Sources of the Qur'an:Saul, Gideon, David and Goliath.

Why the inclusion of David and Gideon into the story? This could be part of the motivation: The Muslims were still few, and the enemies were many. One of the great victories over a fearsome enemy was little David's slaying of the giant Goliath. So this well known story got included into Muhammad's recitation because he wanted to give his followers confidence for the upcoming battles.

The same dynamic holds for Gideon's case. It surely looked like a small group of Muslims would have to fight a large Meccan army. This is similar to Gideon who was called to fight with only 300 men against ten thousands of the Midianites (Judges 7:12) and God deliberately downsized Gideon's army several times, so that the victory is God's, not Gideon's (Judges 7:1-8). The number of fighters is not a problem for God. This is a very motivational element.

As I'm fond of saying, I do so love it when they post dates.

There are several occasions in recent memory where "EOM" has given a "deadline".

Needless to say..nothing has happened.

Not to say that will be the case this time, but I think much of it is "jihad by the keyboard".

Thanks jimbo for the link.

Cindy, everyone please help me find the rapp video that Steve Emerson was speaking about this morning on Fox News. He stated that he putted up on a website IP something dot com. The title is Dirty Kafir and it is done in English. They stated that the voice in the beginning sounded Jamaican or something like that.

The following is something that I have only shared with 2 people on this forum, one right after the event occured.

On the weekend of around June 8-9 of last year, which is my birthday, my fiancee, best friend of 28 years and his family and I travelled to Lake West Point to camp and rent a pontoon boat for the weekend.

Lake West Point is a 30,000+ acre resevoir located on the Chattahoochie river, 90 miles or so downstream from Atlanta, and is kept backed up by a hydro-electric dam. Unlike Lake Lanier(which has humvees and helicopters patrolling it's dam) upstream and closer to Atlanta, West Point(has nothing patrolling it's dam) is probably 90% fisherman and very few pleasure boaters. I have been fishing there since the early 80's.

Since I knew the lake better than any else in our group, I was chosen to be dropped off at the marina to pick up the rental pontoon boat and would then navigate the 3 miles downriver to our campsite.

There are 2 bridges between the marina and the campground we were at. The first one is the hwy 109 bridge. As with all bridges, there is a state law that mandates a no-wake zone around them.

As I slowed the boat down to approach the bridge, I noticed something weird; a small 2 or 3 man bass boat approaching me from the opposite direction with what appeared to be 6 people in it.

I thought to myself,"Those guys are asking to get hassled by the game warden". As West Point has an abundance of game wardens eager to take your money over any infraction of the game or boating laws, especially an obviously over loaded boat.

Then, I noticed that the guys looked of middle eastern ancestry but not like the Indian and Pakistani gas station owners I had dealt with in my 5 year stint remodeling their stores.

They were all fully clothed in the broiling June heat, except for one who had a wet head and what looked like a wet suit on.

One other weird thing, as they passed the no wake bouy on the other side and throttled up their boat, their motor had a sound unlike any boat motor I have ever heard. And I have heard alot in my time.

At the time, I thought the incident odd but no big deal. Probably just some college students doing experiments or something. Although I had never before seen Middle Easterners out at West Point or any other lake, Atlanta has a large population of them so it wasn't out of the question.

The following Monday, we were back at home and I was catching up on my missed freeptime from the weekend. The first thread I clicked on was about ME's being seen taking pics of dams, resevoirs and other realted objects and something clicked in my birthday beer riddled brain.

I freepmailed a poster on that thread and told him what I saw and asked him if he thought I should report this to the feds in Atlanta. He advised me to call the feds and to file a report with the local police.

I called the local FBI office and after leaving a message, received a call back within 15 minutes.

After spending the first 5 minutes explaining to the nice lady exactly what and where Lake West Point was, I then told her what I saw. She asked if I would be willing to come to the office and make a statement and I said yes but that never happened and I haven't heard from them since.

I then called the local sheriff and told him. He contacted the feds and asked if they wanted him to take a statement from me, and they replied that it wasn't neccesary at this time.

My last call was to the game warden post on West Point. They were very interested in what I had to say and asked to come down to the office and talk face to face, which I did. There were also two GBI agents present.

With all the continued talk of these events occuring, I felt compelled to share this with you freepers that have been following the Iraqi-terror connections closely.

I know that Georgia isn't considered a priority target like NYC or Washington D.C., but they have arrested several people in connection to terror investigations here. There was a round up of mall jewelry kiosk operators and there was a guy caught in a motel room across from the CDC with fake ID's and stolen credit cards.

I echo that statement. I haven't posted much but have been here every day keeping up with all the posts. It has been very helpful knowing that there are folks who have worked hard and are so very diligent in keeping up with what is going on and not afraid to discuss it.

I'm appalled that so many Americans even Christians who of all people should be watching are just totally oblivious.

Most folks here in N.C. are so focused on the Super Bowl, even on the Christian radio station, that EOM's latest post makes perfect sense. America will not know till it's too late.

I express my gratitude to you who have been here on this thread putting all the pieces together. Now we will have to sit tight and wait and see. I hope we are all prepared mentally, physically but most of all spiritually.

...just makes me feel I did something - otherwise I feel beyond helpless.

You did the right thing liz. I notified the FBI myself a couple of times right after 9/11.

Thanks, Jimbo..

Were you aware that the CN&Y board does not require registration, and ANYONE could post there and write that their name is "EOM"?

The form allows you to enter whatever you want for your handle when posting.

You can change it every single post, if you want.

So, we have no way at all to know if this is the "real" EOM.

WOW, that is a story! Other than telling the feds what I saw, they never contacted me afterwards or frankly acted interested when I called them. I just felt it was the right thing to do.

Yep..the EOM TEOTWAWKI post has been pulled from the site. No trace of it there now.

The writing style seems consistant with the more ominous of the EOM posts, particularly the two most recent posts prior to today.
