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."

I couldn't even stand to read this...much less listen to it.

There's a reason it's called 'rap' -- just add a C to the front and you get its true name...

Just as 911 is the US emergency phone number and can be written 9/11, perhaps the Swedish emergency phone number of 112 is the hidden code for a 11/2 operation.

This is generally taken to mean the Twin Towers attack, but what if the reference is really an illusion to the "Manhattan Project", which of course, was the code word for the nuclear bomb of WWII.

I certainly hope you are wrong on this one, but your observation regarding OBL's choice of words is unsettling in the context you've placed them.

You betcha! Listened to talk radio a little tonight and can summarize the callers as those who think Michael Moore a literary giant; want "change," but don't have a clue "change" could be a bad thing; consider John Kerry a military icon (barf); and consorting with the UN, ACLU, Amnesty International, Germany and France are Kerry virtues. TV is skewed polls all channels. Better to curl up with a good book, read and relax.

Thanks again Godzilla for a job well done. It's a little disconcerting to drive by truck weigh-stations and see them closed while countless trucks virtually fly by them. They should be open 24/7/365 considering the threat of terrorism we face. The terrorists have already proven they can do significant damage to our structures and morale with pathetically insignificant resources.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT


U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
Office of the Spokesman




This information is current as of today, Tue Nov 02 2004 03:24:57 GMT-0800.


PHILIPPINES


November 1, 2004


This Public Announcement is being issued to remind travelers of ongoing security concerns in the Philippines. It supersedes the Public Announcement issued April 28, 2004, and expires on April 30, 2005.
The terrorist threat to Americans in the Philippines remains high, and the Embassy continues to receive reports of ongoing activities by known terrorist groups. In view of a number of security-related incidents and the possibility of future terrorist attacks, and other violence or criminal activity, Americans traveling to or residing in the Philippines are urged to exercise caution and maintain heightened security awareness. Extremist groups present in Southeast Asia, such as Jemaah Islamiyah, have demonstrated transnational capabilities to carry out attacks against locations where Westerners congregate. Terrorist groups do not distinguish between official and civilian targets. U.S. citizens are urged to defer non-essential travel to central, southern, and western Mindanao, and the islands of Basilan, Tawi-Tawi, and Jolo, located in the Sulu archipelago in the southwest of the Philippines, due to military operations against kidnappings and other criminal activity. As a precaution, the U.S. Government carefully reviews all travel by official personnel to Mindanao and the Sulu archipelago, and emergency services to U.S. citizens in some of these areas may be limited.


Bombings have claimed many lives and injured hundreds in the Philippines over the past few years. The Department of State continues to receive information that there may be future bombings in the Philippines, including against airports, commercial shipping, passenger vessels and seaports. A bombing at a sports arena in Maguindanao Province on January 4, 2004, killed at least 15 persons and injured dozens more. A bombing at the international airport in Davao on March 4, 2003, killed at least 21 people, including one American, and injured over 150 others. In June 2004, two grenades exploded in Metro Manila, reportedly injuring four people near a university campus. In October 2002, one U.S. service member was killed and another injured when an improvised explosive device (IED) detonated in Zamboanga City in Mindanao. The February 27, 2004, terrorist bombing and subsequent sinking of Superferry 14 in Manila Bay killed more than 100 people. The Philippine Government has filed related criminal charges against individuals believed associated with the Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG), which had previously claimed responsibility for this attack. Other explosive devices have been discovered throughout the Philippines and defused prior to detonation. The U.S. Embassy urges Americans to exercise special caution in public places or when using public transportation.


The Philippine Government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) continue to engage in discussions that could lead to a peace agreement, and a military ceasefire remains in effect. However, military operations continue in various parts of Mindanao and the Sulu archipelago against elements associated with the ASG, the Jemmaah Islamiyah, and the terrorist New People’s Army (NPA), the military arm of the Communist Party of the Philippines. Americans residing in or visiting these areas should constantly review their security posture, take appropriate action to secure their well-being, and remain in close contact with local police and the Embassy for current information.


The NPA operates throughout the Philippines and has issued public threats against U.S. citizens and interests in the Philippines. In January 2002, an American tourist was shot and killed by an unidentified gunman on the slopes of Mt. Pinatubo in Pampanga Province, an area known for NPA activity. Americans are advised to exercise special caution when traveling throughout the Philippines due to the possibility of armed robberies, kidnappings, and armed clashes between the NPA and government troops in some areas. The ASG continues to issue public threats against U.S. citizens and interests in the Philippines. The ASG has taken hostage large numbers of Filipinos, Americans and foreign tourists since April 2000. Several were freed after substantial ransoms were paid, some escaped or were rescued by military action, and some were killed. In 2002, one American hostage was killed and another injured during a rescue operation after spending more than a year in captivity. Because the ASG has demonstrated its ability to travel long distances by boat to kidnap foreigners, it is possible that other locations in the Philippines, such as beach resorts, could be attacked. Americans should particularly avoid isolated beach resorts or areas where the ASG remains active.


Criminal and political extortionists kidnapped several Filipinos and foreigners, in Metro Manila including three American children in 2003 and an American businessman in 2004. Kidnappers operating in Metro Manila and throughout the Philippines have snatched family members of prominent local business leaders and politicians for financial gain, to make a political statement, or as part of business, land, or personal disputes.


Americans living in or visiting the Philippines are strongly encouraged to register with the Consular Section of the U.S. Embassy in the Philippines and to obtain updated information on travel and security within the Philippines. The U.S. Embassy is located at: 1201 Roxas Boulevard, Manila, Philippines, tel. (63)(2) 528-6300. The Consular American Citizen Services (ACS) section’s fax number is (63)(2) 522-3242 and the ACS web page is at http://usembassy.state.gov/posts/rp1/wwwhmain.html.


U.S. citizens should also consult the Department of State’s Consular Information Sheet for the Philippines and the Worldwide Caution Public Announcement, located at http://travel.state.gov/. For further information, US citizens may contact the Department of State toll-free at 1-888-407-4747, or, if calling from overseas, 317-472-2328.
