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

U.S. works 'day and night' to rein in al-Qaida
Full Story

WASHINGTON - Prompted by new intelligence indicating Osama bin Laden reached out to the most feared terrorist in Iraq, President Bush charged Thursday that "al-Qaida still hopes to attack us on our own soil."

"Recently, we learned that Osama bin Laden has urged the terrorist Zarqawi to form a group to conduct attacks outside Iraq, including here in the United States," Bush said at the swearing-in of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff.

The president vowed, "We're working every day and night to dismantle (bin Laden's) network and to bring him to justice."

Gang member arrested

XAVIER ZARAGOZA/The Daily Dispatch

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Eulogio Soriano-Vasquez was arrested after he crawled under the international boundary fence between the two counties, Border Patrol officials said.

In 1996 Soriano was arrested for possession and sale of cocaine in Palm Beach, Fla. He was then arrested in Jan. 2001 by U.S. Marshals for illegal entry in Grand Rapids, Mich. He was sentenced to 48 months in prison and three years supervised release.

Eight months later, in Aug. 2001, he was again arrested in Lake County, Ill., for aggravated battery and sentenced to two years in prison.

At the Naco station, on March 13, 2005 he was processed and his data revealed his criminal record. When he was questioned he told agents he was from the Mexican gang called Border Brothers."

Rather interesting day. Multiple anthrax incidents, multiple bomb scares. Furthermore, I still don't know what was going on at the shopping center in South Riding.

Anyway, this is the kind of scenario I'm watching for. Multiple incidents that at first don't appear connected but indeed are the 'first wave' of attacks. Today could have been that very scenario.

I was definitely on edge today.

I have to rethink the scanner. Loudoun Country just upgraded their communications system to some fancy type of digital. A scanner that can receive their signals costs around $500. I have better things to do with $500. Oh well.

The reason we were able to take such a beating and come back to win WWII is that we had a VAST untapped industrial complex.

We also had no competitors in the marketplace. It is easy to be top dog with no competition. That has changed. Places with extremely low labor costs are competing strongly against our world of high labor costs. It will take many years for those places to raise the standard of living and their labor costs so that things return to some degree of balance. The days of operating with zero competition are over.

Trigger time results (shooting at bowling pins):

Bowling pins are great fun as targets. They really dance when I use the 44 mag or .454 Casull.

Here's a chilling article:

U.S. Lists Possible Terror Attacks and Likely Toll

"They include blowing up a chlorine tank, killing 17,500 people and injuring more than 100,000; spreading pneumonic plague in the bathrooms of an airport, sports arena and train station, killing 2,500 and sickening 8,000 worldwide"

Are you headed out of the country again on Wednesday?

Pueblo, Colorado this time. Not even a new timezone. Good thing too. I still jet lagged from Italy.

Just heard on the local Fox Newscast at 10:00 that there was some sort of terror scare at LaGuardia Airport earlier. I can't find any text yet.

That is chilling ffnj. We need to think about those scenarios however scary they may be. If we think about and prepare for the unthinkable, we can minimize the damage and save countless lives.

I was thinking on the way home tonight just how much and how little our lives have changed since 9/11/01. Outside of having my emergency kits close by and being intensely aware of who and what are around me, my routine has not changed. I go to work and come home. One the weekends I relax and unwind.

It's surreal. I had expected we'd all prepare for the next catastrophic attack by creating the emergency kits. What I had not expected is the measures I've had to take in regards to my own personal security. The killing of the Coptic Christian family in NJ, subsequent death threats against other Christians on PalTalk, and even some threats against fellow freepers have caused me to take some extraordinary security and counter-surveillance measures. I didn’t see this coming. I wish it were not so. Sadly, I don’t see it ever going back to the way it was.

So many folks want to go back to the way it was so badly they are ignoring what is going on all around them. Must be nice. I cannot.

That was very well said. I agree 100%. It will never be the way it was. It's just a matter of time.......
