Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat

Thread Twenty-Seven (Index)

Yahoo News : Yahoo Images : News Hotlinks

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!

Expert: Al-Qaida Has Presence In South Florida
Full Story

MIRAMAR, Fla. -- Despite the massive federal, state and local law enforcement effort to stop terrorists from entering the United States, there is no strong evidence of how well it is working.

Many experts are concerned that there are plenty of terrorists or sympathizers already in the country who have been here for years. Some are even citizens.

The Sept. 11, 2001, hijackers were the first wave and now the increasing number of arrests seems to signal a second wave of terrorism in South Florida.

Ever since the story about them blowing up this asteroid on the 4th
came out, i've had the WTF thought. I don't know if it's fodder to
perhaps get the public's sensitivity down so that they maybe could
expect something that night?

This is all pure speculation, the date doesn't click well with me.

---

LOL......

I refuse to worry about an asteroid.

But I do worry about fools, who think they have to shoot one down, "because they can and no one else has done so".

Several of us have become aware of how often the word nuclear is being used this past month.

If the gov has a threat, but unknown target, it might help to have people watching the sky for the asteroid.

Father M. Martin, said many times to watch the sky. He also spoke of 3 days of darkness.

If there were a big hit coming the 4th would be choice, half the fools will be drunk, the in house food eaten and only leftovers in the refrig. (for many folks, not all of course.)

Many people will not be at home, or on the road coming home.

Great crowds of people all over the country.

But then I have an over active mind.

It hit me yesterday, while explaining that the spaceships have Air Force pilots......and how many of the reported space ships have now come out of hiding and are freely flown in my life time.....thinking of the stealth and the one that to me looks like a black bat, a triangle shaped plane that is now out of hiding.

Have you heard of the giant balls of fire that get reported all the time, not just by nuts, some even make the news.

Think about the fact that missiles from N. Korea parts have been found in Alaska and I think it was California.

My thought is that what people are seeing, is our missile killers at work, no I don't recall the name of what is said will shoot an incoming missile out of the sky, but it is the contact that the people are seeing, (the incoming missile exploding).

It does make one stop and think, I do not have enough military training to know if that is what it would look like,but have heard callers talk about them on the radio and now have to admit that I buy my missile idea, over the usual report of meteorite.........

Should prove to be interesting this weekend.

[Velveeta]

Thanks for the recap of Steve Brill.

Your post serves as a reminder to stock up on supplies and to keep extra cash on hand.
I must admit to becoming lax in that area.

[nw_arizona_granny]

When I mailed my last post, the thought of a bunch of people telling me I was crazy, camd into my mind.

I don't think I am, it took one search at Google to turn up these links, even without reading the links, it is pretty clear, that my thoughts are not that far off.

Take a wee peek..........LOL

http://www.google.com/search?client=googlet&q=north%20korea%20missile%20in%20alaska%20and%20california

[Velveeta]

Further, the message states that "if you want to know the whereabouts of the nation, look at its women and whom they follow."

This is particularly interesting.

[Velveeta]

So relieved to hear from you, Crabbie.
We were worried about you.

Please know that so many here will pray for the healing touch of the Lord to embrace you and set you on the road to wellness.

[nw_arizona_granny]

Thank you.

Loads of prayers and hugs to you, please don't leave us with no word from you.......

You know I worry, when you kids disappear.

Government: Man Held on Immigration Charges is Security Risk

DETROIT - A Jordanian being held without bond on immigration fraud charges is also a security risk because he visited terrorist Web sites, the FBI claims.

The government is trying to deport Mohammad Radwan Obeid, 33, who worked as a cashier in Dayton, Ohio, before his arrest in April.

Obeid's lawyer says he visited terrorist Web sites and chat rooms because he was gathering material for a book about terrorism and world religions. (snip)

[subsea06]

One prob with your photo. While there are some protuberances (engines?) on either side of the main aircraft body, there do not appear to be any sign of 'wings' of the size that you would expect to see on a 757.

I thought it might be a question of the lighting, so I pulled an image into Photoshop to be sure, and they simply do not appear to exist. No edges.

your call.

do not appear to be any sign of 'wings' of the size that you would expect to see on a 757.

I pulled the video up and watched it numerous time. And I had to agree.

I pulled up autocad and sized the building (208 feet wide) and a 757 (125 feet wide) and as closely duplicated location of impact and angle of plane. They look pretty close to me . . .

Mexican Authorities Detain Two Iraqis Near U.S. Border on Immigration Charges (6/29/05)

The Associated Press Published: Jun 29, 2005

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Mexican agents in the border city of Tecate captured two Iraqis who had hoped to sneak into U.S. territory without proper documentation, federal authorities said Wednesday.

******Samir and Munir Yousif Shana told investigators they were contacted by a person in their hometown of Baghdad, who said he could smuggle them into San Diego,********* where members of their family already live, according to a statement from the federal attorney general's office.

Federal agents arrested the pair, along with two accused Mexican people smugglers and a youngster on Tuesday in the Paso de Aguila district of Tecate, 30 miles (50 kilometers) east of Tijuana on the westernmost stretch of the Mexico-U.S. border.

Many undocumented Iraqi nationals have been captured in Mexican territory en route to the U.S. border. None have had any links to terrorism.

A spokesman for the attorney general's office said Wednesday that both Yousif Shanas were facing "absolutely nothing more than charges of being unable to prove they were in Mexican territory legally."

The Iraqis said they met the accused smugglers in Tijuana, then accompanied them by bus to Tecate. The group was walking toward the U.S.-Mexico line at the time of the arrests, the statement said.

So where do two Iraqi's from Baghdad get the money to travel to Mexico????...what is the city that their flight originated from???? How do they know where to go once they are in Mexico??? Sounds like a very organized incident....but once again....NOTHING TO SEE HERE FOLKS BUT TWO INNOCENT ILLEGALS.....MOVE ALONG....
