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!

Details show extent of terror plot against U.S.
Full Story

We now know more about an alleged attack that triggered an increased national threat level last summer.

That's when U.S. officials said they had uncovered a plot targeting financial institutions. The plot involved bombs, banks and British nationals.

The detail was startling, the targets enormous. They included financial buildings in Washington, New York and New Jersey.

"Islamic cleric 'vouched for terrorist'"
By David King
May 05, 2005
 

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "AN unidentified Australian Islamic leader wrote a reference for an Australian man to attend a terrorist training camp in a mountain hideaway in Pakistan, a Sydney court has heard.
US terrorist-turned-informer Yong Ki Kwon told the Central Local Court yesterday he met the Australian, who used the alias Abu Asad, while training with outlawed terror group Lashkar-e-Toiba (LET) in late 2001.

He said French terror suspect Willie Brigitte was undergoing weapons instruction in the camp at the same time."

Was there any follow-up? Where was this?

I only saw it as breaking on CNN for a few minutes, outside shots of the school and that was it. I hope it gets covered somewhere soon. can anybody scan LA newssites for this?

[Velveeta]

Glad the feds got 'em.

Here's a review of the 'culinary delights':

"We had to push a cart of lamb carcasses out of the way to get to the window and place our order. We had plenty of time to familiarize ourselves with this tiny butcher shop and deli on Lafayette Road while we waited for our food. But when it arrived, and kept arriving, we knew we had struck a little culinary crude at Holyland Halal Meats." (snip)(Yuck!)

We prioritize our investigations on criminals and criminal networks that pose a threat," she said.

Following a four-day trial, Jesus Martin Sagaste-Cruz, 39, of Guamuchil, Sinalou, Mexico, was found guilty of conspiracy to distribute and distribution of methamphetamine. U.S. District Judge Alan Johnson presided over the trial.

Sagaste-Cruz is scheduled to be sentenced July 6. He faces a mandatory minimum term of 20 years to a maximum term of life in federal prison, a fine of up to $8 million, and 10 years of supervised release. Two other Mexican nationals, a Utah man and eight Fremont County residents were also charged in the case. They all pleaded guilty to conspiracy and distribution charges.
