Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat - Thread 5
CNN ^ | March 12, 2004

Posted on 03/12/2004 8:23:06 PM PST by thecabal

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- This week's deadly train bombings in Spain will not lead to a rise in the U.S. color-coded terror threat alert system, a Department of Homeland Security spokesman said Friday.

"Based on the current intelligence, we have no specific indicators that terrorist groups are considering such an attack in the U.S. in the near term," said department spokesman Brian Roehrkasse.

He's also a "southern boy", from Mississippi. That's gives him extra points :-)

You are right. They are ticked, but when haven't they been.

I've been so fed up with this group of murdering thugs for so long I could scream. And I will, to anyone that is within earshot. I'm glad Isreal wiped that scum from the earth. I'm glad the US didn't condemn it. I hope Isreal continues to kill these murderous snakes.

And if they hit the US, they better be at peace with Allah.

Being afraid isn't the solution; increasing your level of vigilance is probably a good idea.

Whether they can carry out the threats is difficult to assess with a 100% degree of accuracy. Unless the Israelis are very very fortunate they are going to be hit hard in relatiation.

The probability is high that US will probably sustain attacks on overseas interests, including our troops in the middle east.

What remains to be seen - and I don't think anyone has the answer with any degree of certainty - is whether or not there are agents here who are prepared to carry out a homicide bombing here.

It wouldn't take many - it would only take a few. So I think the risk is there. They could do plenty of damage by downloading plans from the net, and assembling then with a short shopping list at Walmart.

That was Shep in the parking lot "incident". I assume he had a rental car since he was in Florida covering the fiasco. Never been to Florida (or N.Y) but perhaps Florida does not have public transportation as thorough as New York.

I'll give Shep extra points for being a southern boy even though I'm a New York born Yankee. :-) Love those southern boys, especially the Nascar guys.

Watching the news tonight we heard a reporter say something about Yassin being a sixty-something-year-old confined to a wheelchair & my husband said something to the effect of "Well there's one for Leon Klinghoffer."

Perhaps you are correct, but I just don't see a change in their attitude. They've always wanted the Israel and the US destroyed. They are working towards it every day. While the cry on the street may be louder today, it is no different.

I don't wish any more danger for any of our troops. Nor for the Israelis.

I'll rant no more.

I think the Israelis did the right thing. They never should have let the guy out of prison in the first place. They always get raked over in those prisoner exchanges :(

I am headed to bed, with a prayer for Israel tonight.

Thanks much and I apologize for missing your post from last week. I was out of town, without computer!, for a little over a week. Got home and as soon as I thought I was almost caught up on this thread I came down with a real bad cold and am now trying to get caught up again. Will try to pay attention now!

Thanks for following the jihad threads. I imagine that is not the most "fun" task but your efforts and posts are appreciated. I will keep an eye out for your post regarding the book.

Hizbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah had earlier said that Israel would pay a heavy price for Yassin's killing.

Yassin's Hamas group has killed hundreds of Israelis in suicide bombings since the start of a Palestinian uprising more than three years ago.

Israeli warplanes had swooped over southern Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa Valley earlier in the day.

Sweep them all up Israel. GO MASSIVE.

Earlier today it was reported that Yassin had his own brother killed. They stated that Yassin suspected his brother of working with Israel. One day Yassin made his brother lay down in an open grave and then ordered one of his men to shoot and kill his brother.

You guys are the best, thanks for all of your uplifting comments and prayers. I'm too drained to reply to everyone tonight. I have been on the Internet doing research and making mad phone calls all day since I got off work. I will get back to everyone, thanks again.

rickylc you can rant all you want. I am just being realistic. When I saw that that evil man was taken out last night my heart was gleeful but also heavy. I thought a lot about our guys over there in the mix.

indie being locked and loaded is not going to do you any good if you are in a grocery store, a mall, etc., where we are not allowed to pack. Those people (jihadist, suicide bombers) will not fight in that manner on our soil. Now if they become bold enough to start strolling down the streets of the US with their kalashnikovs that a horse of a different color.

Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks that the sun has set on a world that delights in evil, yet those who believe in You continue to plead for mercy upon the just and the unjust. You have sustained us another day, O God, and for this we praise You. You have not let us fall over the precipice into total disaster, though we feel so helpless against the hiss and the clamor of nations rising up to shed innocent blood. Keep us mindful in these hours that Your word proclaims that greater are You who are in us than he that is in the world ... 1John 4:4

Were it not for You, Merciful Father, we would perish. We again plead our relationship as Your children, that You would spare our beloved country ... that You would strengthen us in these times of trial ... that You You would stay the hand of the enemy, wherever it is outstretched in murder. Place a hedge around our beloved sons and daughters in the military, for surely they are in increased danger. May they be vigilant, and successful, for their cause is just. Let no harm come to those in authority over us, for we know the goodness of their determination to provide security for our citizens, that we may prosper as a freedom loving-nation ... not only for ourselves, but for the citizens of the world who covet godly freedom.

Open the eyes of the world that this spiritual battle may be plainly seen ... call Your people to committed prayer that we might find continued mercy. Silence the words of those who incite to anger and bitterness ... bring forth Your peaceful reassurance that in this world we will have tribulation, but be of good cheer ... You have overcome the world. John 16:33

Blessed be Your Name, forever and ever, Amen ...

SP2BF:

I am still obsessed with 4515 SB. I found the Al Quds arabic publication of the letter (not a copy of the original letter)

http://www.alquds.co.uk:8080/archives/pdf/2004/03Mar/12MarFri/Quds02.pdf

It was on a page which prominently displayed a poor Spanish victim of the "Train of Death" with a metal beam lodged in his head.

Anyway, I have a question about the arabic translation of SB.
I am trying to decipher it myself (ha ha)

The SB in arabic is a wide u with a dot under it connected to a small rounded off w. To me this translates to SAB not SB. Am I correct???
