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?

This morning on the 5:30 a.m. news in Philadelphia, there was a story about a passenger being arrested last night on a flight from Nevada (Reno - I think) to Philadelphia. They showed a picture of the guy...who had a foreign sounding name. He was being disruptive on the flight and went into the restroom with some type of chemical...they said in the story that he was huffing.

I have been looking for the story on the local web sites and google searches....and nothing....just disappeared. Anything about this on IPN?

Translated from Cindy's (French) ribaat.org site:
_____________________

More details concerning the attack...

Greetings,

The Ansar Army is claiming the attack. The heroic holy martyr who carried out the attack lived in the town of Mosul, was 24 years old, and was married for approximately one month. He successfully found work at the same base in Ghizlani for two months. These two months of working at the base allowed him to report valuable inside information on where the Crusaders would be the most vulnerable. He also informed them on where the reserves of munitions, etc. were stored...Thanks to this information the Mujahedeen were able to bomb 48 times in two months the sensitive points at the base. They were also informed of collaborating Iraqis, Turcs, and Americans who were working as businessmen. Thanks to this information 37 collaborators were executed.

The Ansar Army indicates also that the holy martyr worked in the building and therefore was perfectly recognizable at dinner time, at the hour when the tables would be full! The attack was filmed and the video will be broadcast shortly, at the time when the information concerning the losses arrives from all. The Crusader's Defense Department has announced 19 killed of their troops and 3 civilian co-workers and 60 wounded according to the AP. An embedded correspondent saw at least 24 bodies without counting the blown up (or mangled) bodies and more than 64 wounded. At the same time the Halliburton Company announced 4 of their staff were killed plus 3 other contractors. Other sources wonder how such a quantity of explosives was able to wait until their objective. They are talking of a ballistic explosion given that the explosion was very powerful and was on the perpetrator of the attack.

Group among most feared
The Ansar al-Sunnah Army is one of the most feared extremist groups operating in Iraq, having taken responsibility for several major attacks and the killings of foreign hostages.

The group's members are thought to fundamentalist Muslims whose goal is to turn Iraq into a tightly controlled Islamic state like the former Taliban regime in Afghanistan.

Salams Dear Friends,

As you may know, MWU! has been recovering from a malicious attack on
our servers late last week that took down our home page, erased some of
our articles, and damaged our discussion forums. The illegal hacking of
the site replaced the word "Muslim" in our logo with "Murtad," the
Arabic word for apostate that is often used to instigate physical violence
against opponents.

We're now back online alhamdulillah.

Unfortunately, this week I also received over 800 emails that included
an explicit death threat if MWU! is not shut down.

Needless to say, we will not be intimidated into silence.

I want to thank the many readers who have emailed me with their support
and encouragement.

We've taken this opportunity to revamp our MWU! Forums section, adding
many more relevant categories and forum topics. Check it out at:

The Dead Scientists Society

In Baqouba, a city northeast of Baghdad, unidentified assailants shot and killed an Iraqi nuclear scientist as he was on his way to work, witnesses said. Taleb Ibrahim al-Daher, a professor at Diyala University, was killed as he drove over a bridge on the Khrisan river. His car swerved and plummeted into the water.
