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!

Diana - suspicion of death at the hands of Saudis (tinfoil)
Arafat - suspicion of death by Isreali poisoning (PA whining)
Yassin - suspicion of death by Isreali airstrike (grim humor)

So, what's in store for President Bush? What does the astrologer know?

Suspicious blast, tell-tale crater lead to charges

A Kelso man faces charges of endangerment, after setting off a large explosion Saturday afternoon within earshot of three police officers, Kelso police reported.

One of the officers ran into Ty Ernest Junnikkala, 41, as he was walking in the direction opposite the site of the explosion at North First and Harris, about 100 yards from the railroad tracks, police said.

He was carrying a black rifle powder, a glue stick, matches, fuse material, and a receipt for gunpowder and cigarettes, which matched butts found at the explosion site, according to the officers.

At the explosion site, Officer Doug Lane found a 4-inch cast iron pipe in the middle of a crater in hard compacted soil. The opening of the pipe was pointed toward the tracks, he said, and there was a trail of residue, possibly from a fuse, about 2 or 3 feet long.

He said there must have been a projectile in the pipe that would cause enough back pressure to make a crater and spread packing remnants flying hundreds of feet. Lane was unable to find any projectile, the report said.

Junnikkala faces charges of reckless endangerment and two counts of possession of explosives, all felonies, and a misdemeanor citation of second-degree reckless burning. He was held on $50,000 bail.

He was still in custody after a court appearance Monday afternoon.

"Muslim leader agrees to leave United States"


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "From Southern California's Daily Breeze, with thanks to Anthony:

An Orange County mosque leader from Egypt who authorities said had given speeches that could be considered supportive of terrorist organizations agreed Tuesday to leave the United States voluntarily, giving up his fight to remain in the country.

Wagdy Ghoneim is being held at the federal immigration detention center on Terminal Island. As part of the agreement with government attorneys, he avoids deportation in exchange for admitting he was in the United States in violation of his immigration status, said Virginia Kice, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement.

He must leave the United States by Jan. 7. By agreeing to voluntary removal, Ghoneim, the imam at the Islamic Institute of Orange County, is eligible to reapply for entry into the country."

$50K for a that fine MIL-grade laser?

Maybe. But as silly as it may sound, I'd still be willing to bet that, like moi, my favorite bad guys will opt for the cheap, readily available, disclaimable, souped up 5mW laser pointer for $119 plus S&H.
