Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat

Thread Twenty-Eight (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!

Terrorists could be just getting started
Full Story

New York City and Washington. Bali, Indonesia; Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; Istanbul, Turkey; Madrid, Spain. And now London.

When will it end? Where will it all lead?

The experts aren't encouraged. One terrorism researcher sees the prospect of "endless" war. Adds the man who tracked Osama bin Laden for the CIA, "I don't think it's even started yet."

Thank you pengino.
I appreciate the posts and links.

[nw_arizona_granny]

This one worries me. Why is is always hazmat trucks being cut off-
and not grapefruits or TV's or something.......

---

If you will recall, a year or so ago, we had a white vehicle that cut off - caused almost every truck accident that was hauling a dangerous cargo.

There have been so many of them, that it is almost to the
point that if there is not a white vehicle in the report,
I then assume it is a natural accident.

White vehicles, have been used for so many of the terrorist attacks here and abroad, that it is a signal/symbol.

I assume it is white for 'purity'.

the snipers were in white.

the fires in California were set by white vans, I saw those reports on the Calif. Highway Patrol website, the vans went down the freeways and pulled off, set a fire at the off ramp and got back on the freeway.

Las Vegas and Denver have a lot of fuel truck accidents, that close the hiways, almost daily.

I think that I am glad that I no longer drive, how do you keep away from white vans......LOL

Yep, that message has been there awhile if I recall correctly.

Release A050714b
Task Force Baghdad Soldiers arrest two terror suspects

BAGHDAD , Iraq - Task Force Baghdad Soldiers from the 2nd Battalion, 70th Armor Regiment captured two terror suspects after stopping a grey BMW on a major highway in west Baghdad July 12.

The car matched the description of a vehicle used by an anti-Iraqi forces mortar team during an attack July 11.

When the Soldiers searched the car they found almost 2.5 million Iraqi dinar and 27 U.S. $100 bills. Nine of the bills were sequentially numbered. Both of the suspects also had several fake pieces of identification, each with a different name, and multiple passport sized photos.


Traces of explosives were also discovered in the car.

4 - Las Vegas is #4 on the list of cities to be hit in the U.S.

You know, I went back and thought about this after posting the link to callmejoe's list of 4s. It this point it seems safe to assume that there is a reason for this, and that it might continue to some degree.

This all made me think back to, what would be 4 cities for the next attack? Then I remembered back to the original thread that started the TM:

Al Qaeda again threatens New York, Washington and Los Angeles - Daily Terror Threat
Debka ^ | 11-3-2003 | Staff

Posted on 11/03/2003 9:17:27 AM PST by tubavil

Monday, November 3, 2003

A new message was posted in the last few hours by the Jeddah-based al-Qaeda-linked Al-Islah (Reform) society calling on Muslims to flee New York, Washington and Los Angeles in advance of major al Qaeda attacks in those cities. This is revealed by DEBKAfile.

The message accuses the United States of predetermining its end (doom) by its policies. ?The Jews rule the Pentagon by remote control and (are the cause) of Muslims being killed in every corner of the world. The United States should therefore expect more blows.?

The message is signed on behalf of the al Bayan (The Threat) movement by ?your warrior brother, Abul Hassan al Khadrami?.

----

So, we have three cities listed there, but no fourth. Las Vegas makes sense... But, why no warning? Well, I assume they don't care about any Muslims decadent enough to reside in the city of sin, so why warn them?

In the U.S. most of us look to these threats as something that should happen tomorrow, next week, or next month. I always find myself wondering if this whole project is going to end up being a catalog of what led up to the 2nd major attack on the U.S..

I am worried because there is still no claim from al Qaida bigs. They have consistently come out to at least praise an operation like the one we saw in London. Many experts saw bin Laden's pre-election speech as the final warning to the U.S., I think if no one comes out soon to praise the London attackers, we have a problem. Perhaps it is a sign that he is waiting to speak after the U.S. is hit.

another poster said it was Greensboro.

Yes, I don't have a citation for it at the moment but I'm pretty certain that it was UNC-G (Greensboro campus).

[Cindy]

OPINION...hazmat trucks and buses

[Cindy]

Yes...thinking people here and that's a good thing.

[texasbluebell]

Trifles perhaps, but July 7, 2005 = 7/7/05 = 19 and there was a crescent moon August 6, 2005 = 8/6/05 = 19 and there will be a crescent moon

Crescent moon...as in symbol of islam? Makes sense.

Both are within 50 miles of each other. You have about 4 colleges right there together. Duke, NC State, U. of NC I know there is at least one more but can't remember right now. And it is liberal hell on earth. Except for NASCAR.

"He's an Aussie citizen"
By PETER TRUTE
July 15, 2005

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "THIS is Sheik Mohammed Omran, the radical Muslim cleric who seven days after the London bombings still wants proof that Islamic terrorists are to blame.

He is still not sure whether Osama bin Laden is a terrorist – or whether the al-Qaeda leader ordered the September 11 attacks.

And although he's an Australian citizen, he's got nothing to say about the fact that last week's cowardly terrorist bombings almost killed 10 of his fellow countrymen.

The Daily Telegraph yesterday tried to interview Sheik Omran after his bizarre comments – made after Islamic suicide bombers had been confirmed as the perpetrators of last week's terror – that there was no evidence of a Muslim link."

ARTICLE SNIPPET #2: "Yesterday it emerged that Australians have been accessing radical Islamic websites in alarming numbers.

US-based researcher Aaron Weisburd said Australians made up 2.2 per cent of worldwide users of a Taliban revivalist website."

ISLAMIST-RULED PROVINCE PASSES TALIBAN-STYLE LAW IN NORTHWEST PAKISTAN

An Islamic government in a Pakistani province bordering Afghanistan has just passed legislation enforcing strict adherence to Islamic teachings.

The regional legislature in the North West Frontier Province (NWFP), dominated by the ruling alliance of six religious parties, passed the controversial Hasba Act by 68-34.

Islamist MP's shouted "Allah-o-Akbar" (God is greatest), when the result of the vote was announced amid opposition uproar.

Dubbed by the All Pakistan Minorities Alliance (APMA) as "an attempt to bring Taliban-style law to the region," the law has been compared to the Taliban regime's notorious Dept. of Vice and Virtue in Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001.The Taliban was backed by Pakistan, and many of its members trained in the northwest's religious schools.

Under the new law, an Islamic watchdog will monitor the observance of Islamic values in public places.

APMA reported that the bill's passage followed a heated debate between the ruling conservative six-party religious alliance Mutahida Majlis Amal (MMA) and the opposition.

Under the new law, according to APMA, the main duty of the cleric, called "mohtasib" - one who holds others accountable - will be to ensure people respect the call to prayers, pray on time and not do any business during Friday prayers.

He will also stop unrelated men and women from appearing in public places together, APMA reported, and discourage singing and dancing.

Another one of the cleric's functions, APMA reported, will be to monitor the media to ensure "publications are useful for the promotion of Islamic values."

A news release from APMA called the bill a "hanging sword" for religious minorities, and predicted that it will be used by Islamic extremists to both persecute and torture Christians and other minorities.

"This new law will strengthen Islamic extremists and pro- Taliban forces who are already ... attacking churches, killing innocent citizens, bombing, misusing (the) blasphemy law, violent activities and hate crimes," APMA commented. "These elements will be allowed to interpret Holy Koran and Sunnah according to their own thinking through this bill."

APMA said the organization also has a concern that the bill will "eradicate religious freedom and basic human rights in NWFP."

APMA commented that radical Islamic elements have routinely "linked Pakistani Christians with the west, therefore they think by killing and attacking (them) they are taking revenge."

Speaking in a news release, APMA Chairman Shahbaz Bhatti said his organization has launched a campaign to deal with the issue.

"We have written letters to authorities and shared our concern. Even press conferences and demonstrations were held to highlight this issue. I also sent (an) application to the Chief Justice of Pakistan for his intervention, but nothing happened yet. (Please) pray for Christians and other minorities in this critical situation."

According to the World Evangelical Alliance (www.worldevangelical.org/persecute/persec_pakistan_ii_28oct03.html), "APMA is a coalition representing Pakistan's non-Muslim religious minorities (Christian, Hindu, Sikh, Balmeek, Bheel, Maingwal, Zoarastrian, Bahai and Kelash communities). Using advocacy and lobbying, APMA raise(s) minorities' issues and concerns with the government authorities, parliamentarians, human rights organizations and media."

APMA, the World Evangelical Alliance statement continued, is assisting many victims of "discriminatory laws and blasphemy laws and also supporting and protecting victims of terrorist attacks of Islamic militants especially since 11 Sept. 2001 ... APMA is struggling to protect and ensure religious freedom in Pakistan."

"Anniversary of a Massacre"
By Humberto Fontova
NewsMax.com | July 14, 2005


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "So what's the alternative if you can't flee Cuba? Well, in 1986 Cuba's suicide rate reached 24 per thousand – making it double Latin America's average, making it triple Cuba's pre-Castro rate, making Cuban women the most suicidal in the world, and making death by suicide the primary cause of death for Cubans aged 15-48.

At that point the Cuban government ceased publishing the statistics on the self-slaughter. The figures became state secrets. The implications horrified even the government.

Yet all we hear about Cuba is about the horrors at Gitmo, where the criminals and terrorists are behind bars. On the rest of the island these run the country."
