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.

NEW YORK - Police searched trucks, blocked streets and posted machine-gun toting officers outside financial landmarks Monday, a day after the government's chilling warning that terrorists might target the buildings with bombs.

What post number had the drawing??

It (the Astrodome) was replaced by the new stadium a couple of years ago.
They were debating last year what to do with it.

I cannot imagine any extremely large event taking place there, but possible I suppose. But large events taking place all the time in the other facilities in the complex.

I was helping the local GOP schedule a large convention (5,000 delegates) right after 9/11, we decided to have it elsewhere (not the Astroarena) because of an auto show that was going to interfere too much.

The new stadium, new arena/meeting center, and the old arena are co-located in the same complex . . .

I wonder when the first Texans game might be.

Yep. And the Christian Identity types are leftist nazis who, when away from their cover organization, will easily tell you they are atheists.

The WCC is also just as leftist, and only use mainstream denominations as their cover "to reinvent Christianity in their own image" just as the nazis did.

Wild Stolen-Truck Chase Ends Near NSA (Washington DC - National Security Agency - 8/5/04)

By Tim Craig Washington Post Staff Writer Friday, August 6, 2004; Page B03

The driver of a stolen truck cab rammed three vehicles, including a police cruiser, yesterday during a wild chase in Maryland that ended when the suspect stopped short of barriers at an entrance to the grounds of the National Security Agency in Anne Arundel County, authorities said.

The driver's decision to exit the Baltimore-Washington Parkway in a restricted National Security Agency area briefly caused police and guards at the intelligence agency to be jittery about a possible terrorist attack.

"When he takes the ramp that goes to NSA," said Sgt. Thornnie Rouse, spokesman for the Maryland State Police, "then your flags really go up and you ask, 'Is he going to stop or not?' But I will say this: The officers on the other side of the fence were prepared to take the necessary action."

The man, whom police did not immediately identify, was arrested about 2 p.m. Rouse said authorities last night were still considering what charges to file against the man, who was described as being in his twenties. They said they were confident he is not affiliated with a terrorist organization.

The man and a Maryland State Police trooper were injured during the chase and transported to the Maryland Shock Trauma Center. The trooper, whose vehicle was rammed three times during the roughly 20-mile chase, was in serious condition last night, Rouse said. Police did not release his name.

The incident began about 1:40 p.m. when Baltimore police tried to stop the stolen truck cab. The driver, traveling at speeds approaching 70 mph, headed south on the parkway before turning onto Interstate 695. He then veered onto Interstate 95 and turned east toward Baltimore-Washington International Airport.

By then, about two dozen police cars from several departments were in pursuit.

Before reaching the airport, he turned north on Route 1, toward the Baltimore Beltway. On the beltway, he drove east toward Glen Burnie before heading south on the parkway.

At the parkway interchange with Route 100 near Jessup, the driver rammed a police cruiser that was trying to gain position in front of the truck cab, Rouse said. A few seconds later, the truck sideswiped a BMW. The driver of that car was not injured. A few miles farther south, the truck sideswiped the police cruiser again, Rouse said. As the chase continued, police tried to put tire spikes across the parkway near the exit for Route 175. But those plans were thwarted by another tractor-trailer that also was driving in the southbound lanes. "The trooper was in a position to throw the stop-sticks down and realized that was not the right vehicle," Rouse said.

The stolen cab hit the tractor-trailer, then struck the police cruiser for a third time -- this time hitting it from behind, Rouse said. Then the truck exited at the National Security Agency before stopping at the barriers. "I think he just took the first ramp, not really knowing where it would go," Rouse said. Link to Article

I can't understand the intense hatred that so many have for him.

This does, in fact, surpass human logic.

IMO, it is reflective of Revelation, when the devil has been let loose...nearing the end of the age.

The original poster requested it be pulled because of some responses it was getting. He reposted a tamer version. I got his permission to post it on TM. See post 2161.

Bombs disarmed. This was related to a domestic dispute. Residents have returned to their homes.

At least it was just a bobtail. Can you imagine a full gross truck going at speed for a government installation?

Why are we staging major operations to protect the Iraqi/Syrian border while leaving ours wide open?

You are correct, but I sometimes think that they could also be doing dry runs to determine manpower, etc.

Doesn't sound at all like the 'rumored' NEST copters IIRC.

That's a far cry from tank and infrantry divisions about to attack Israel. Which they claimed before the invasion last year.
