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.

The distinction between wilaya and dawla is, in my experience, correct. Any sand Arab that misused these words, in Ottoman times, would find a few Janissaries up close and soon. The light in their eyes would not be visions of sugar plums.

Katzman is well regarded, but this was the only source I have seen as to the Palestinian possibility, and I cannot find the policy paper. If she was Syrian (as all the other sources suggest) she may have been an Alawite.

July 30: Born in Riyadh to Yemeni bricklayer cum construction magnate Mohammed bin Laden and his fourth wife, reported variously as a Syrian or Palestinian woman.1

Bin Laden's mother, Hamida, was not a Saudi or a Wahhabi, but a stunningly beautiful, cosmopolitan, educated 22-year-old daughter of a Syrian trader. She shunned the traditional Saudi veil in favour of Chanel trouser suits and this, coupled with the fact that she was foreign, diminished her status within the family. She was Mohammed bin Laden's tenth or eleventh spouse, and was known as the 'the slave wife'. Mohamed bin Laden gave even his former wives a home at his palaces in Jedda and Hijaz. Hamida was still married to the millionaire when he died and so, amid a huge family and the solid gold statues, the ancient tapestries and the Venetian chandeliers, this is where Osama bin Laden, Mohamed's seventh son, 'the son of the slave', grew up.

The two books complement each other. Randal, a retired foreign correspondent for The Washington Post, enriches the still-sketchy picture that most of us have of bin Laden and his family. For the first time, in Osama, we hear a lot about bin Laden's mother, who, according to some informants, was a concubine and had roots in the Syrian Alawite sect, whose mystical beliefs are considered heretical by many Muslims -- including the puritanical Saudis.

"I'm wondering why MEMRI and al Jazeera are running different translations for that line."

Possibly because one of the problems with translating is an individual's/organization's perception of what's actually being said. FOX had the president (I think) of MEMRI on this afternoon stating that OBL isn't going to attack, he doesn't have the means anymore; that OBL made that obvious in his whining about how badly GWB had hurt AQ.

~~~~~~~~~as Sahab media is likely one or two people with a $3,000 computer. I'm not sure if it matters where the logo is. ;) I have 2 previous as Sahab videos and one has the logo in the lower left - the other has it in the center right.

The two videos (clips we have seen) released last week look like they were produced in the same way as the ones I have.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Osama! IS that YOU? LOL

"Petrol/chem plants

I'm not really thinking it wouldn't be a target, I was throwing out a psychotic example that I had once seen in a movie (since they're so hip on movies and television) for a few reasons mostly revolving around the same concept....anything's possible.

"There will be plenty of baloons at both election headquarters for an acceptance speech tomorrow night!"

Now there's an angle that I didn't even think about...
