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?

WHOA!

Organizers say jet that crashed was to pick up ex-president

11/22/2004

Associated Press


Former President George Bush has suspended a trip to Ecuador because the jet he was going to board -- crashed today in Houston.

A conference organizer confirms Bush has canceled his trip because the plane that should have flown the ex-president from Houston -- went down.

Three crewmembers died in the accident during foggy weather.

The private jet clipped a light pole and crashed near Hobby Airport.

Nobody on board survived.

Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Roland Herwig says the Gulfstream flight originated at Dallas Love Field.

The plane's registered owner is Jet Place of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The former U.S. president, who lives in Houston, was scheduled to take part in a business conference.

"If Moscow were destroyed by an anonymous bomb, what could reduce the risk of Russian retaliation mistakenly
launched against Chechnya or the United States?

One of their ideas is to have a team of international technical experts prepared for immediate dispatch to
assess the bomb's origin by analyzing its distinctive radioactive signature, Smith and Weber said.

"A week's delay in retaliation could literally save the world," said Smith. "


Reverse this to our perspective...if Washington DC gets nuked what are the odds we will want to wait a week and then let the UN's tech experts tell us where the bomb came from and who we should blame (of course they will say it's our own radioactive stuff.)

We don't need a week to figure out the radiation signature and we don't need outside smoke and mirrors at that point either. The very idea that this is being presented smacks of a set up being foisted as supposed prudence.

Former President Bush scheduled to fly on jet that crashed

12:33 PM CST on Monday, November 22, 2004


Associated Press


HOUSTON -- Former President George Bush has suspended a trip to Ecuador because the jet he was going to use crashed Monday morning in Houston.


AP

President Bush spoke last week at the dedication of the Clinton Presidential Library.
Three crewmembers died in the accident during foggy weather.

The private jet clipped a light pole and crashed on the Beltway at Cullen near Hobby Airport.

Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Roland Herwig says the Gulfstream flight originated at Dallas Love Field.

The plane’s registered owner is Jet Place of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Former President Bush, who lives in Houston, was scheduled to take part in a business conference in Ecuador.

According to the former President's spokesman, he was on the way to Hobby Airport when he learned a plane had crashed. He didn't know the plane was his until he arrived.

President Bush had flown with the three crewmembers before and he released the following statement: "I am deeply saddened to learn of the plane crash this morning. I have flown with the crew before and knew them well. I join in sending my heartfelt condolences to each and every member of their families."

The FBI is sending an investigative team to Houston as a courtesy, but FBI spokesman Bob Doguim says there is no reason to believe foul play was involved in the crash.

Unless you believe AQ can control or predict the weather, this is not a cue or likely to be the result of AQ.

PA Press: US soldier is rapist and Rice is "Exterminator;" US committing "ethnic cleansing"
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1286027/posts

As the Palestinian media slowly return to their regular routine following Arafat's death, their well-documented hate promotion and incitement are likewise reappearing. One common theme that has quickly returned due to the war in Iraq is the depiction of the US, verbally and visually, as the cruel and inhuman enemy.

A cartoon in today's official PA daily, Al Hayat al Jadida, shows an American soldier raping a young girl, while the Arab world looks on with amusement and even offers support. The most recent Friday sermon on PATV depicts the US as the creator of international terror. In a third example, a vicious cartoons depicts US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice as the exterminator of Arabs.

Was the crew checked out? By whom? Was the crew that was supposed to fly the plane, really flying the plane? I would think that anyone entrusted to fly Bush 41 around would have Instrument and heavy weather experience.

Was this the crew skedded to fly the leg carrying Bush?

Picky questions, but obmvious ones to me in order to narrow the odds that it was/wasn't an accident.

I'd personally have to hope that we would wait a little while before retaliation if a nuke ever went off in an American city. I guess I fear the end results of us blanket nuking someone in revenge only to find out we should have done it to someone else. Of course, if a nuke did go off in a US city, the likely culprit would probably be quite apparent...

"The FBI agent who wrote a memo warning that terrorists were training at flight schools before the
September 11 attacks said concerns over racial profiling may have prevented officials from acting on his
intelligence.

"If you look at the world prior to 9/11, we were prevented from doing certain things. We were victimised by our
own restraints," Ken Williams told The Arizona Republic in his first interview since writing his now-famous memo
in July 2001."

We were prevented by high level political orchestration. The progressive democrat agenda is the source of the restraints. The progressive democrat agenda is anti-USA under its veneer and it appears to have the intention of letting the UN take over our sovereignty even at the sacrifice of millions.

Pelosi met with Hamas leadership last August.

I don't know ... it sounds too suspicious to me.

I'm also convinced that AQ was behind the basket-brawl in Detroit. (just kidding)

HOUSTON -- A fatal plane crash in Texas prompted a quick change in travel plans for former President George Bush.

Slideshow: Plane Crash Wreckage, Clean Up

The president's father canceled his trip to Ecuador after the private jet he was scheduled to use crashed Monday morning as it approached Hobby Airport in Houston.

Three crew members on board died in the accident.

A spokesman said the elder Bush was scheduled to board that plane so he could attend a business conference in the South American country.

The Gulfstream jet went down after clipping a light pole in thick fog at around 6:15 a.m. local time.

" i figured scheuer was probably a misguided"

He's a part of the political orchestration, a political counter-spy from an agency that was functionally infiltrated. The dems are selling us out to the UN and the global socialists and he is one of their best flunkies. I'm sure they will reward him with another book contract or two.

It is possible that "bad weather" and "light post" are just the cover story for the plane crash?
