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!

Hi Oorang.
That's interesting.

That's interesting.

Wasn't that the area where several months ago kids were playing with a "football" bomb and it exploded?

Thanks Rambler7.

Do you have a url for the article (if available)?

If so, could you please post it.

Thanks.

[Cindy]

Disregard my last post Ramble7.

During the operation, a weapons cache of three RPG launchers, 10 RPG rounds, 10 60 mm mortar rounds, one 155 mm round, one 125 mm mortar round, a mortar system, two hand grenades, one RPG sight, two bags of 7.62 mm ammo and a block of TNT.

This sounds a bit like a TO&E. I wonder if this kind of stuff has been found in these quantities before? Hmmmmmmmmm I wonder what kind of troops (insurgent cell) this supplies?

I knew a woman once that could lie like a rug, pass the polygraph tests...and eventually justice caught up with her.

MUSLIM GROUP DECRIES TERROR DEPICTION Richard Huff, Edmonton Journal, 1/9/05 http://www.canada.com/edmonton/edmontonjournal/index.html

The first new episode this season of Fox's 24 has yet to hit the screen and already the network has offended a Muslim group.

After viewing a portion of the first episode included on a DVD in Entertainment Weekly, officials from the Council on American-Islamic Relations expressed dismay at the depiction of a Muslim family.

"At first I was shocked," organization spokeswoman Rabiah Ahmed told the New York Daily News. "In this particular case, they show an American-Muslim family and they portray them as terrorists..."

"What we will accomplish today will change the world," the father tells the son over breakfast. "We are fortunate that our family has been chosen to do this."

Ahmed said the scene "casts a cloud of suspicion over every American-Muslim family out there."

A Fox spokesman said the company had no comment.

Ahmed acknowledged the possibility that in the remaining half of the first episode -- which was not on the promotional DVD -- the storyline could have indicated this was not a typical family

You're right.

That sounds exactly like a TO&E of some sort. Dont know how many people it would supply, but my guess would be about 20-25 people. I may be dead wrong however.

[Oorang]

Now that you mention it, I think it was Wana. Quite the hot bed. I guess they don't call it the frontier for nothing.

[Oorang]

I'm glad justice finally caught up with her. I abhor lying. Pathological lier's have no conscience, IMO.

[Oorang]

This type of political correct nonsense really ticks me off (just thought I'd let y'all know :-))

Afghan militant group appoints new leader
Source: Reuters

SPIN BOLDAK, Afghanistan - An Afghan militant group that kidnapped three UN workers last year has appointed a new leader after its old chief was arrested by Pakistani security forces, its new head said on Monday.

The Jaish-e Muslimeen, a small Taleban splinter faction, abducted UN workers Annetta Flanigan from Northern Ireland, Kosovan Shqipe Hebibi and Filipino diplomat Angelito Nayan in Kabul on Oct. 28. The three were freed unharmed on Nov. 23.

After reports that a ransom was paid and of a possible dispute among the kidnappers over sharing it out, Pakistan said it had arrested the group’s chief, Syed Akbar Agha, in December.

“I have been made leader of Jaish-e Muslimeen,” Ishaq Manzoor told Reuters by satellite telephone. “The decision was taken by our Shura (council) and military commanders ... following the arrest of Syed Akbar.”

The 35-year-old from southern Kandahar province vowed to press on resisting US and international forces in Afghanistan.

“We will carry out big attacks,” he said.

Manzoor was chief of police in Badghis province in northwest Afghanistan under the Taleban, who were overthrown by US-led forces in late 2001 for harbouring Al Qaeda and its leader Osama bin Laden after the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States.

The Jaish-e Muslimeen has attacked trucks and set off bombs, mainly in southern Afghanistan.

The fledgling Afghan National Army, backed by some 18,000 US-led troops, is hunting remnants of the Taleban, mainly in the south and east along the border with Pakistan.

Pakistani security forces are deployed on their side of the rugged border to catch those who try to escape and have arrested a number of Taleban and Al Qaeda suspects who had taken refuge in Pakistani cities.

Pakistan = hotbed for terrorists; providing possible "get out of jail free card" for oogamous Osama (who is currently alleged to be in Afghanistan - probably picking and smoking poppies as I post this).

CBS has fired four executives after the release of an independent investigation into its debunked National Guard story.

It'll be interesting when these "fired" employees do the talk show circuits; couldn't possibly be anyone else a little higher up at fault now could there be?

Action Item: Watch '24' Tonight on Fox

I watched this show last night and plan to watch part 2 tonight. Cry me a river about the terrorist depiction. Suggest Rabiah Ahmed provide the names of Swedish or Italian terrorists to date. It's the age of reality TV and the terrorists all happen to be ME. ME people can help to prevent the stigma of this depiction by eliminating or curtailing those among themselves (rather than protecting them and failing to notify authorities of their location) who are sullying their name and reputation!

[Oorang]

Ahh, I didn't know it was on last night and is a two-parter. Oh well.
