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!

Skeggs, if money could capture UBL; he would have been captured by now.

Yes, he could pass as Mr. Joe Normal American walking into the local grocery store. Another "white lily" as the Jayna Davis calls them.

Thanks again Godzilla. Your work is appreciated.

I posted an article a few weeks ago about the Middle Eastern obligation to give shelter. The article tied in why $$ would not cause someone to turn in OBL especially, or anyone else.

In their culture they are required to give anyone shelter who asks for it. They can be from a different tribe/clan, age old enemies, doesn't matter. They must provide shelter and the hospitality that goes with it.

If they turned someone in it would "damage" them and their family for generations. One is truly held responsible for their g-g-grandfathers actions. The price extracted is higher than 25, or 50 million, in their eyes.

Hey Look....

Incoherent jumble of watch-lists could doom anti-terror measures: report
By JIM BRONSKILL
January 23, 2005

OTTAWA (CP) - Efforts to keep terrorists from obtaining travel documents or boarding airplanes will falter as long as federal agencies rely on an incoherent array of watch-lists, an internal government report warns.

The draft report obtained by The Canadian Press stresses the need to consolidate the existing jumble of indexes into one or two comprehensive lists of red-flagged individuals.

It spells out detailed proposals to improve the management and co-ordination of watch-listing efforts and step up quality control to ensure "complete, accurate, timely information-sharing."

Public Safety Minister Anne McLellan acknowledges that work remains to be done.

"Technology helps enormously, but at the end of the day, it is still a huge challenge," she said in an interview.

A copy of the draft report, prepared last May by officials in McLellan's department, was recently released under the Access to Information Act.

Border controls have become a preoccupation for western governments since the terrorist assaults of Sept. 11, 2001 on the United States.

Auditor General Sheila Fraser found last March that watch-lists used to screen visa applicants, refugee claimants and travellers seeking to enter Canada were in disarray because of inaccuracies and shoddy updating.

Chinese suspect found in Boston terror scare
Agence France-Presse Monday, January 24, 2005
WASHINGTON AMERICAS
.

.
U.S. authorities have located a Chinese woman who had been sought along with 13 other people for questioning in an alleged terror plot targeting Boston, but the investigation so far does not link her to any terrorist group, according to the FBI.
.
Mei Xia Dong was found to be at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection detention facility in southern California after authorities released her name this week "as one of 14 subjects allegedly involved in a Boston terror plot," the FBI said in a statement issued over the weekend.
.
The FBI said she may have entered the United States for "economic reasons." She was arrested for an immigration violation by border agents on Nov. 11 and has been in custody since then, it said.
.
"The investigation thus far does not tie her to any terrorist group," the statement said.
