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.

Yep, seems strange to me.
Like, WHAT DID THE PRESUMPTIVE TESTS conclude?

Any updates on this incident would be appreciated.

Blast from the past:

... John Sweeney, a journalist working for BBC Five Live, unearthed the fact that an Arab from whom Mr Galloway received thousands of pounds in cash for expenses in the 1990s was the same man who was named in an American court as the purchaser of a satellite telephone used by al-Qa'eda in Afghanistan.
Five years ago, Mr Galloway was investigated by the Commons Standards and Privileges Committee over his financial relationship with Saad Al Fagih, a London based dissident Saudi politician. During the inquiry Mr Galloway identified more than £5,000-worth of items on his credit card bill that had been paid by Mr Fagih.
He said that all were out-of-pocket expenses. He also said that he had been given £1,800 to hand over to foreign nationals living in political exile in Britain, but refused to say who they were.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Hmmmm. That's a good one...

[angcat]

Bet he never had such clean white underwear in his entire miserable life! GROSS! He should be dead and buried looks like US is taking care of him!

[bored at work]

LOL!

[Oorang]

Just great. The Saddam in his underwear photo is on the cover of the New York Post. What idiots. The only purpose this serves is to stir up the arab street and help fulfill the jihadi's goal.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

It appears that the lib media wants more American and coalition forces and contracted workers killed in Iraq, Afghanistan and everywhere else. The media is dripping with shame and blood...

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Chuckle. He definitely should be dead.

Envelope containing powder closes Washington Co. building (Oregon)

HILLSBORO -- The Juvenile Services Building in Washington Co. is closed after an employee discovered an envelope containing a suspicious powder.

Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue's hazmat team is on the scene and is containing the powder.

The discovery, made around 2pm this afternoon, prompted officials to close the facility and send staff members home.

The facility, located at 222 N. First Ave, remains closed while tests are being conducted.

KPTV will have more details as soon as they are available.

If I were a news editor, I would not run such an explosive pic. Even if valid...

And do they really know that the pic is genuine and not photoshopped like some already proven to be fake?

The media -- and especially the New York Post -- have some nerve to run this.

[Velveeta]

I see that Cindy described the photo of Osama at the White House to you.

In addition to Cindy's description, the black al qaeda flag is flying atop the WH.

(Hmmm...Black Flag....reminds me to say hello to Amir and Tigger. How've you guys been?)

[Velveeta]

Well, that sure is weird.

[Oorang]

Thanks Vel. I wish I knew how to keep my firewalls up but not block anything. Sure is frustrating sometimes.

[Velveeta]

I wish I knew how to help you with that, but I don't.

...and it's OUR fault? ROFL!



"Officials in Nizhegorodskaya region, on the Volga river east of Moscow, said water in the lake might have been sucked down into an underground water-course or cave system, but some villagers had more sinister explanations.

"I am thinking, well, America has finally got to us," said one old woman, as she sat on the ground outside her house."

Muslims on megaphones in London calling for attack on America

SNIP: 20 May 2005 Muslim protesters today called for the bombing of New York in a demonstration outside the US embassy in London.

There were threats of "another 9/11" from militants angry at reports of the desecration of the Koran by US troops in Iraq. Some among the crowd burned an effigy of Tony Blair on a crucifix and then set fire to a Union flag and a Stars and Stripes.

Led by a man on a megaphone, they chanted, "USA watch your back, Osama is coming back" and "Kill, kill USA, kill, kill George Bush". A small detail of police watched as they shouted: "Bomb, bomb New York" and "George Bush, you will pay, with your blood, with your head."
