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?

...tracking terrorists from North Pole

One can only wonder what those in the know pick up from satellite transmissions (especially stray ones) alone.

I have been watching or reading news stories about this trial on the missing oil tanker, MT African Pride. I find it so bizarre. At first, the oil was siphoned off this tanker and water was put in the oil's place. Then, the ship disappeared.

Hmmm...so where can one get "tanzanite" now?
Well, a lot of places.

I guess a lot has changed since this 2001 article.
