Credit: The Cabal 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 will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat."

Washington, D.C. -- Increased security is everywhere in the Nation's Capitol. Tourists and visitors alike agreed when asked that if they saw anything suspicious, they would call 911.
That is exactly what officials tell the public to do but Mike Maney says he did not receive an adequate response. Two weeks ago he called the FBI and Homeland Security to report three middle eastern men videotaping support beams on the lower level of the George Washington Bridge but no one came out to investigate the incident.
The FBI said they were investigating the calls and Valerie Smith, spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security released this statement on Wednesday:
"At the Department of Homeland Security, we rely on the vigilance of all citizens to be aware of unusual activity and to report it to local law enforcement. We are deeply sorry that, on this occasion, Mr. Maney did not get the immediate response he deserved. We are currently looking into his inquiry and determining how to improve this process." (Hello, FBI, you work for us ... and we're working for you!)
The FBI says they are trying to find out just why Maney's call was not acted upon. All of the agency officials contacted in reference to this story say they will continue to count on residents calling with reports of suspicious activity.

LOL!
Catch it while you can, it's already gone from the google cache, and I'd wager that if he's intentionally dusting over his tracks, the archive.org "footprints" will be removed before too long also. (They will remove from their archives upon request.)
Here's a list of his earlier bios, going back to October 2002. I haven't examined them, so I don't know how different they are from the last one (linked above), dated July 15, 2003.

Will be here tomorrow for the rest of the story.
Take care and elevate that leg!
One thing we can determine from the recent ramp up in security and the collection of supicious people is that the fed's are expecting something to happen sooner rather than later. Planes are being boarded-turned around-and flights canceled. This indicates to me that they expect something to happen way before Oct 2nd.
Amen.
I remember when Tom Tancredo was a part of your tagline! It really is maddening that for every step our country takes to defend itself, we still leave most of our borders open. I was reading an article yesterday probably here on FR where someone was quoted as saying it is financially and humanly impossible to protect our gazillion miles of border areas. Well, then let's build a wall or a fence, I say.
Thanks for the information. Will report if I hear anything.
Flights have been canceled? I had not heard about this.
Indeed.
I know it's all B$, but living in a city that could be a literal ground zero in a matter of hours is a little bit unreal.......I have to go back to work next week and I'll be teaching Psychology again, this must be subconscious preparation for that. Yeah, that's the ticket! Nyuck Nyuck Nyuck.
YALL READ THIS THIS TIME:) LOL This is what I think all the fuss is about and have not heard anything else about...not sure if this links even works but it is saved on thread...

San Francisco-London flight cancelled over suspicious behavior

Virgin flight at SFO halted
Suspicious behavior of passengers was reported to officials
Steve Rubenstein and Charlie Goodyear, Chronicle Staff Writers
Tuesday, August 3, 2004
A Virgin Atlantic Airways flight bound for London from San Francisco International Airport was canceled Monday night after suspicious behavior by several passengers was reported to authorities.
Virgin's Flight 20, scheduled to leave at 4:30 p.m., was barred from departing "based on suspicious activity by some passengers,'' said Nico Melendez, a spokesman for the federal Transportation Security Administration. The FBI later took charge of the case, according to a San Francisco police spokesman.
Hundreds of passengers were taken off the flight and left waiting at the airport, with little explanation. A Virgin spokeswoman declined to comment on Monday night, and the airline's Web site listed the flight only as delayed.
Four hours after the flight was first scheduled to take off, it was canceled, according to a federal official.
Passengers interviewed at the Virgin ticketing desk described two situations on the plane. The first involved an unruly passenger who was drunk and who caused a disturbance. About 15 minutes after that passenger was removed, passengers said, the flight crew called five passengers holding Romanian passports to the front of the jet, according to passengers.
"They were five passengers they didn't like,'' said Jamie Schutmaat of Sacramento. "They were acting weird.''
After those five passengers were removed, the rest of the passengers were asked to leave the plane.
Passenger Joe Snyder of Carmel Valley said the captain of the flight announced, "There are some people on the plane that we do not feel comfortable flying with.''
Security officers came onboard, pulling up seat cushions and searching under the seats.
San Francisco police officers then searched the 747 aircraft, and a police sergeant later suggested the incident "got blown out of proportion.''
Sgt. Larry Ratti, a spokesman for the airport division of the San Francisco Police Department, said one disorderly passenger was detained and questioned but by late Monday night had not been arrested.
"My information from the officers that boarded the plane is that there was just one unruly passenger,'' Ratti said. "It was enough that for the safety of all the passengers we decided to search the entire plane. It's a big plane. You want to search it thoroughly, and it takes a while to search something like that.''
Ratti said officers did not find anything suspicious onboard the flight.
The canceled flight came a day after terror alerts for cities on the East Coast and warnings that London might be a target for terrorists.
After the flight was canceled, inconvenienced travelers were offered free hotel stays by the airline.
"At the end of the day, if it's not safe, it's not safe,'' said one passenger who would identity himself only as Fernando. "I don't mind. Better to be safe than sorry.''

Yes there is the one that was canceled after being held up for hours because of supicious passengers.
I am happy to say I have no contacts with FBI,CIA or any law enforcement. RITFLOL
Thanks for that. I wonder why he'd be dusting his tracks???
Small landslide...one school of fish affected?
I received an email from the Jeddah-Online Yahoo! group today that is a bit disturbing after getting a translation through Tarjim. The original message was sent Saturday and was forwarded several times before it finally landed at JO. I think I'll post the original Arabic over at IH to see if someone can provide a better translation. It may just be a generic religious statement, but the machine translation made my hair stand on end.
