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.

Ramadan terror concerns?
Full Story

ATLANTA (CNN) -- As more than one billion Muslims prepare to celebrate Ramadan, terror experts are mixed about whether the holy month is a tool for recruiting terrorists.

Some terrorism experts and Islamic scholars say Ramadan gives extremists an opportunity to enlist new recruits.

"It's a time which can be exploited by radical clerics to motivate individuals into taking action on the basis they are somehow serving their religion," says terror expert M.J. Gohel.

And analysts see another temptation for terrorists: exploiting the Battle of Badr, a symbolic date in Muslim history, which falls near the U.S. presidential election.


"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat."

What do you think is wrong?

If they can't confirm it; they can't confirm it -- right now.

I'm beginning to think that maybe Bush had too much on his mind yesterday to respond to Kerry's silliness.

Bush hasn't been elected yet. The tape makes it sound like the event has happened. Is this tape being released early as a threat?

Here's what I know - if we give in to them - if this country elects Kerry, the nutcase terrorists will hound us until we're broken.

Bush has them on the run. It needs to stay that way. To give in is to give up. I pray God will guide President Bush and keep him safe and strong.

The streets will run with blood," and "America will mourn in silence" because they will be unable to count the number of the dead, and "America has brought this on itself for electing George Bush who has made war on Islam by destroying the Taliban and making war on Al Qaeda."

I think given all that's happening right now, the most sensible thing to do is postpone the eclipse for a few weeks.

I agree!

Or better still, try the horse's mouth...

http://www.drudgereport.com/

The video tape appears to be from al-Qaeda's media liaison organization. It has a banner crediting the Sahab Production Committee. The speaker refers to Bin Ladin and Zawahiri as "our leaders" and praises the 11 September attacks. The video appears to have been made in the past several months based on the speaker's discussion of the conflict in Darfur, the 9/11 Commission and other recent events.... Developing..

Thanks neighbor.

We've been talking about this scenario since thread one, and it looks like all those endless posts werent tinfoil material. Now its time to narrow down the scope to what we've heard about their attack strategy and the tactics they may use.

Maybe, just maybe, we can save some lives IF (big if) this is the real deal. The last year has proven the real jihadis and their aligned parties always have loose, bragging lips when they are about to do something.

Hi Budd,

Good to hear from you. Kinda tense these days.

Thanks for the well wishes. Best of Luck to you as well.

Hoping the time never arrives.

Pray for the best. Prepare for the worst. I'm as prepared as I can be.

Be sure to check out the moon tonight if you can. I watched it last year. Awesome sight.

So many different threats, not sure how to go about narrowing it down.

IMHO, biggest threat right now is to schools and polling stations. Can't count out the possibility of fuel truck bombs and/or coordinated shooting sprees as a method of attack.

Would be interested to hear your thoughts.

The British news channels are reporting that Yasser Arafat is critically ill and all the Palestinian cabinet has been called to his Ramallah compound. Sounds like he could croak.

Has anyone thought that he may have actually been assassinated? Wasn't there something recently about the next al-qaeda attack being preceded by a major political assassination?
