The Threat Matrix

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.

Don't laugh but the annual shad festival is a weekend long event/festival held every year in Lambertville, NJ that spills over to New Hope, PA across the bridge. We went a couple of times. Shad fishing is a big deal there.

Thanks, I'll visualize this beauty on Friday.

Safe journey and best wishes for your wonderful new life!

Woman Found Packed In Box At Airport
Box Found At Airport

MIAMI -- Immigration officials are trying to figure out how a woman made it all the way to Miami inside a cargo box.

Workers at Miami International Airport found the woman Tuesday as they were unloading boxes from a cargo flight.

The flight had originated in Cuba and stopped in the Bahamas before heading to Miami.

Officials did not know the woman's nationality or the circumstances around the discovery.

The woman did, however, appear to be in good condition.

A similar incident happened last year when a man traveled in a cargo box from New York to Dallas. He later faced federal charges.

Most folks are oblivious to the end-game nature of what we're dealing with. A nuclear attack in any major metro center in this country would be an unspeakable catastrophe and would quite probably create a chain reaction of responses that would wipe out civilization as we know it.

There is no such thing as "hyperbole" with the scenario we are dealing with. The enemy has grown like a weed throughout the world, and probably does not care that we would incinerate Mecca in response (the more martyrs, the merrier).

I can't think of a single trump card, can you? Islam will have to be eradicated along the lines of communism.

There is much pain to come. We all need to prepare our hearts for the seachange that's coming....

"One of its encouragements to jihad reads: 'The blood of our husbands and the body parts of our children are our sacrificial offering.'"

After their "sacrificial offering," then what? Where do they go from there?

Their hate is greater than their love of their own children. My mind is unable to grasp their concept.

That's because you are sane.

It makes perfect sense to a møøselimb...

This is new from Jill's site. Does anyone remember the date of the blackout last year? Was it the 26th or 27th of August?

The Battalion of the Black Death of the Islamic Jihad Brigades issued an ominous statement after the East Coast Electrical Ourages last summer. This statement has been 'lifted' on the Arabic forums. Why is anyone's guess, but it is worth taking a second look at and can be vied in it's entirety here!

W wants to bond with Bravest

BY MICHELE MCPHEE in New York and HELEN KENNEDY and KENNETH R. BAZINET in Washington
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS

WASHINGTON - President Bush wants to watch the Republican convention from a New York City firehouse and "bond" with the city's Bravest, officials said yesterday. California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is also scouting out firehouses so he can watch it with the heroes of 9/11.

"Both Bush and Schwarzenegger want to bond with city firefighters," said one city official who asked not to be named.

FDNY spokesman Frank Gribbon said, "The President of the United States is welcome in any fire facility in the city."

The President intends to watch Wednesday night when Vice President Cheney addresses his party. Bush takes the stage on Thursday night.

Bush campaign spokesman Kevin Madden said only, "I can't confirm any details related to President Bush's schedule in New York City, other than the fact that he's looking forward to accepting his party's nomination on Thursday night."

An evening in the firehouse could rekindle memories of one of Bush's finest moments, standing in the 9/11 rubble with a bullhorn and surrounded by weary firefighters.

The campaign is also anxious to avoid the furor that erupted when it used an image in one of its commercials of a firefighter's body being carried out of Ground Zero.

Sources in Washington said Team Bush hopes to roll out a show of support from some of the city's Bravest.

The city's Uniformed Firefighters Association has yet to endorse a candidate, although the national umbrella firefighters union is backing Sen. John Kerry for President.

"We have not made an endorsement. We have not made a decision on whether we are going to endorse anyone," fire union President Steve Cassidy said yesterday.

Union officials have acknowledged they have received calls and E-mails from some members who say they are with Bush.

Those same union leaders hope Bush will take notice of the cutbacks that the FDNY has undertaken since 9/11.

"Any firefighter would welcome a visit from President Bush, but maybe President Bush should stop by one of the firehouses Mayor Bloomberg has shut down," said Peter Gorman, president of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association.

Schwarzenegger is keeping a low profile in New York, possibly to keep the fairly liberal governor from overshadowing the President.

The Govinator's glitz will be toned down. Cameras are banned when Schwarzenegger slips into town Monday and he is turning down all requests for media interviews while in New York. He will visit a school in Harlem, attend a gala at Planet Hollywood and leave town before Bush speaks Thursday.

Hello crabbie.....almost noon and still no update on the bomb scare at the Home Depot in Cherry Hill. Could be another one of those stories that just falls off the radar with no additional reporting.

[crabbie]

Good..I was running errands around there yesterday.
