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!
Threat Matrix - Daily Terrorism Threat

Connect these dots, now
Full Story
"We should have secured the Mexican border."

That could be the pitiful lament we hear from negligent U.S. officials if Al Qaeda pulls off an attack on the United States using weapons of mass destruction smuggled across our southern frontier.

Were that horrendous event to happen, leaders in the administration and Congress would be justly hit with the same question that was perhaps unjustly cast at them and their predecessors after the unprecedented Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks: Why didn't they connect the dots?

He looked to be in good health, judging by that photo from the summer.

Here's a snippet from an article in late September:

Yushchenko's health worries began on 5 September, when the former prime minister began to fall sick. Five days later, he was transported to a private clinic in Vienna, Rudolfinerhaus. By this time he was gravely ill, with a whole range of baffling symptoms. Nikolai Korpan was Yushchenko's chief physician in Vienna. He describes the symptoms in a telephone interview with RFE/RL.

"He had acute pancreatitis [inflammation of the pancreas], he had acute gastritis, he had acute proctocolitis, acute myositis [eds: muscle inflammation], acute paralysis of the facial nerve and he was [describing] different pain symptoms, for example in the area of the abdominal cavity and the thorax cavity, the breast cavity," Korpan says.

I think you're right, and I certainly hope they did hair and fingernail analysis.

From what I'm googling, that may be the only way to determine if he was poisoned with arsenic, since it leaves the body after a few days, but if done within 6 to 12 months those particular tests can help.

You would think the docs would have tested for that, wonder if they did.

I don't know the answer to that, Cindy.

Have not come across anything so far that says yes or no.

Just a slight correction to your link: The former producer for TATU is actually producing a new artist by the moniker NATO. It is this artist NATO that is performing in black garb, complete with hijab. The concert tickets were in the form of airline tickets and the audience would be part of the show, simulating hostages on an airliner.

One word: SICK.

It's been brought up here before (not too long ago) that South America is breeding terrorists and we need to keep a watchful eye on those countries who have numerous politicos and subversives who wish to do us in (Columbia and Cuba among them).

Yes. Of special note is the "terrorist triangle" area of Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay. The article linked below notes the large influx of Muslims to that area who carried European passports but were unable to even speak the language of the European country they supposedly came from.

From the link above:

"...A German agent of the Bundes Nachrichten Dienst - Federal Information Service who recently visited a number of Latin American capitals has evaluated the situation in the triple border area as "a ticking time bomb." He believes the growing pressure exercised on terrorists in Europe, Asia and North America will bring many of them to move their organizational apparatus to countries such as Paraguay."

"...Muslims have also found their way into Bolivia, Colombia, Brazil and other neighboring countries..."

"...At this stage the growing danger is that of militant Islam penetrating Mexico, a country with an increasing Muslim community, including Muslim converts. Some of them have ties to the Mexican community and to illegal immigrants' smugglers operating in American states bordering Mexico, especially those with connections in the greater Los Angeles area and other major cities.

Intelligence experts now assume the so-called jihadi spider web is moving north fast from Paraguay. It is just a question of time before terrorists use, and quite possibly already have used, the loosely guarded American-Mexican border..." (excerpts)

And from this article:

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=37133

"...The reason terrorist cells in Paraguay, whether active or dormant, can continue to grow and flourish, is because of widespread corruption in South America.

Immigration is easy. There is a long tradition of harboring criminals. Even Nazi war criminals were welcomed for years.

The lawlessness and disorder in Paraguay, enabled operatives of such terrorist groups as al-Qaida, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad and Hamas to feel safe, even in the heart of Asuncion [the Paraguayan capital]..."

"Mystery surrounds Yushchenko ailment [Ukraine]"


This got my blood boiling. I'd love to see him properly treated and the bio/chem skullduggery exposed to the world.

Do you recall an article mentioning no Ukranian planes allowed to enter our airspace or some such blockade of Ukranian folks back then in late September/October? I wonder if it was due to this?

http://www.jihadwatch.org/

Al-Qaida chief calls Muslims to jihad
Sheikh Al-O'Taibi (Al-O'Taibi? What is he, an Irishman?), identified as Abu Abd Al-Rahman Al-Aathry, the new chief of Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, has published this statement calling Muslims to jihad. It is at the pro-jihad site Jihad Unspun. Note the copious references to the Qur'an and the actions of Muhammad. This, as I have noted many, many times, is how jihadists recruit. And this is what moderate Muslims have in no way begun to refute, despite all their protestations that the Qur'an and Sunnah teach peace. Note the heavy use of Sura 9, which Islamic tradition has regarded (with some dissenters) as the last sura revealed, and thus the Qur'an's last word on jihad.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:
The Prophet (PBUH) said “None of you become believer until he loves for his brother whatever he loves for himself”. He (the Prophet) also said “Religion is advice”, (meaning that advice one another is an integral part of our religion, Islam). Therefore, I have come to you with sincere advice. Today, we are able to do whatever we wish without accountability, and tomorrow (judgment day) is accountability with no more doing.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind

Have you settled to stay behind with women?

They prefer to be with (the women), who remain behind (at home): Their hearts are sealed and so they understand not. 9:8, The Holy Qura’an.

This is the unpleasant fact that you never wanted to face. Do you really want to stay with the Hypocrites, and people of excuses? What have done for your religion? Especially as you see it (Islam) being attacked and slaughtered every day everywhere....

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

Didn’t you hear Allah saying:

And fight them on until there is no more persecution, and religion becomes Allah’s in its entirety… 8:39, The Holy Qura’an.

Aren’t you aware of Allah’s saying:

Fight and slay the pagans wherever you find them, and seize them, beleaguer them and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war)… 9:5 The Holy Qura’an.

Didn’t Allah say:

Fight them, and Allah will punish them by your hands, and disgrace them, Help you to victory over them, Heal the breasts of Believers. And still the indignation of their hearts…, 9:14,15 The Holy Qura’an.

Didn’t Allah say:

Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, or hold that forbidden which has been forbidden by Allah and His messenger, Nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, from among the people of the book until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. 9:29 The Holy Qura’an.

Didn’t Allah say:O Prophet! Strive hard against The Unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is hell,-An evil refuge indeed. 9:73 The Holy Qura’an.

Didn’t Allah say:O you who believe! Fight the Unbelievers who are near to you and let them find harshness in you: and know that Allah is with those who fear Him. 9:123 The Holy Qura’an.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

Allah says:

Do you consider the giving of drink to pilgrims, or the maintenance of the sacred Mosque, equal to (the pious service of) those who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and strive with might and main in the cause of Allah? They are not equal in the sight of Allah: And Allah guides not those who do wrong. Those who believe, and emigrate and strive with might and main, in Allah ‘s cause, with their goods and their persons, have the highest rank in the sight of Allah: They are the people who will achieve (salvation). Their Lord does give them Glad tidings of a Mercy from Himself, of His good pleasure. And of Gardens for them, Wherein are delights That endure: They will dwell therein For ever. Verily with Allah is a reward, the greatest (of all). 9:19-22 The Holy Qura’an.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

Say: If it be that your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your mates, or your kindred: The wealth that you have gained; The commerce in which you fear a decline: or the dwellings in which you delight- Are dearer to you than Allah Or His Messenger, or the striving In his cause;- then wait until Allah brings about His Decision: and Allah Guides not the rebellious. 9:24 The Holy Qura’an.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that, when you are asked to go forth in the cause of Allah you cling heavily to the earth? Do you prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? But little is comfort of this life, as compared with the Hereafter. Unless you go forth He will punish you with a grievous penalty, and put others in your place; But Him you would not harm in the least, For Allah Has power over all things. 9:38-39 The Holy Qura’an.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

Go forth (whether equipped) Lightly or heavily, and strive and struggle, with your goods and your person, in the cause of Allah. That is best for you, if you (but knew). 9:41 The Holy Qura’an.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

Don’t you fear what Allah says:If they had intended to come out, they would certainly have made some preparation therefore: but Allah was averse to their being sent forth; so He made them lag behind, and they were told, “sit you among those who sit (inactive).”If they had come out with you, they would not have added to your (strength) but only (made for) disorder, hurrying to and fro in your midst and sowing sedition among you, and there would have been some among you who would have listened to them. But Allah knows well those who do wrong. 9:46,47 The Holy Qura’an.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

Aren’t you concerned about Allah’s saying: Those who were left behind (in the Tabouk expedition) rejoiced in their sitting back behind the Messenger of Allah: they hated to strive and fight, with their goods and their persons, in the cause of Allah: they said, “Go not forth in the heat. Say, “The fire of hell is fiercer in heat,” if only they could understand! Let them laugh a little: Much will they weep: a recompense for the (evil) that they do. If, then, Allah bring you back to any of them, and they ask you permission to come out (with you), say: Never shall you come out with me, nor fight an enemy with me: for you preferred to sit inactive on the first occasion: then sit you (now) with those who stay behind . 9:81-83 The Holy Qura’an.

Oh, Those Who Are Staying Behind:

Didn’t you know the story of the three men who were left behind? What was their crime? It was refraining from Jihad (staying behind)..take a closer look at their story as it was told in the Holy Qura’an. They were companions of the Prophet and they were among the best people, they accompanied the Prophet to some of his expeditions. What was their punishment (for staying behind)? The messenger of Allah (PBUH) ignored them for 50 consecutive nights, despite the fact that they have repented to Allah. but Allah did not accept their repentance until after 50 nights! The matter is serious indeed, so think again and reevaluate your action before you are held accountable.
