The title refers to a daily report given to the president of the United States detailing the most serious terrorist threats against the country. To tackle those threats, the government has formed a top-notch task force to infiltrate the terror cells and cut off the danger.

"Every morning, the president receives a list of the top ten terrorist threats - this list is known as the threat matrix."

We here at FR are trying to be in conjunction with the daily reports around the world that involve threats. We try to provide a storehouse of information that takes hours of research.

YOU be the Judge and get informed.

I guess you didn't scroll to post 1926 yet - you can add port security breach to that.

RIVIERA BEACH, Fla. -- A suspicious incident at a shipping company near the Port of Palm Beach prompted authorities to evacuate hundreds of workers Wednesday.

Nearly all of the port was shut down just after 4 p.m.

Two people have been arrested, while port authorities try to sort out the details.

Containers "of interest" are being sought, the port director told reporters, but he wouldn't say any more.

150 children at the Boys and Girls Club in Riviera Beach were moved to a recreation center further away from the area, where parents can pick them up.

(probably should be breaking news, if anyone is comfortable with starting threads...I'm not...)

I didn't really pay attention to the discussion, other than it being NY.

[Velveeta]

Snowy,

I think you spoke too soon when you said it was quiet...

LOL

[appalachian_dweller]

Was just reading about the port incident. I've had a bad feeling since I left the house this morning. One of those 'something is up behind the scenes and it aint good' feelings. All these reports of events happening all at once isn't helping either.

[appalachian_dweller]

Stay safe ffnj!

[Velveeta]

Are you comfortable starting threads?

The port incident should be breaking news (IMO)

Might get some locals to fill in on reports
