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!

Was Bomber's "New York" Shirt A Message?
Full Story

It's hardly a unique fashion statement for a mass transit rider: a Yankees-style cap, and a "New York" sweat shirt.

But the New York Police Department is teaming with British authorities to determine whether those items were worn by suspects in the London terror cases to send a "purposeful message" to the city, according to an NYPD officials.

David Cohen, the NYPD's deputy commissioner of intelligence, raised the concern earlier this week at a security briefing for business leaders at police headquarters in Lower Manhattan.

>> How long are we going to put up with this crap? <<

Until we lose a couple of cities and a few million citizens.

Sorry to be so pessimistic, but that's how I see it.

To what does this translate?

Safari is Apple's internet browser. I go between that and Firefox for most of my surfing. I only use IE if there are sites that absolutely positively are geared to it, like some bank billpay pages.

So the lettering was visible and not hidden?

[SlowBoat407]

Hard to know where the breaks in that string are supposed to be, if any. The are 57 characters, so I don't think it's a string of eight-bit "words". If it's a single number, it's going to be huge and it'll take me a few minutes to work it out. If someone out there is faster than me (very likely), then have at it.

Lettering was visible the whole time, but I couldn't grab it as text.

Ooops! John Loftus mistake:

U.S. couple harassed after TV report says house is home to militant Islamic leader

LA HABRA, California -- A family has been bombarded with threats and harassment after their house was wrongly identified on a U.S. cable television broadcast as the home of a radical Islamic group's leader.

Since the Fox News report Aug. 7, Randy and Ronnell Vorick have had people shout profanities at them, take photos of their house and had someone spray-paint the word "terrist" on their property, The Los Angeles Times reported Thursday.

"I'm scared to go to work and leave my kids home. I call them every 30 minutes to make sure they're OK," Randy Vorick said.

John Loftus, a former federal prosecutor, gave out the address on the TV show, saying it was the home of Iyad Hilal, who allegedly was the U.S. leader of a group with ties to those responsible for the July 7 bombings in London.

Satellite photos of the house and directions to the residence were posted online. Someone even removed the street sign where the Voricks live to provide some protection.

Hilal, whom Loftus identified by name during the broadcast, moved out of the house in Orange County about three years ago. (snip)

Don't worry about it, if it's too time consuming.

It may well just be nonsense.

At one point last night I was switching the ones and zeros on the weapons post, thinking there might have been some reversal code being used. That way, the marks on the stocks became zeros and thus true separations.

Those numbers didn't mean anything to me either, but at least it exercised my brain while I had some video rendering.

Explosions In Central Illinois
Self ^ | Aug 25, 2005 | Self


Posted on 08/25/2005 9:57:46 AM CDT by Graybeard58


I live in North Pekin, Illinois and about three blocks from my house a propane and propane accessory store is exploding as I type. My son just called and said they are evacuating this area. The police have the highway 29 closed by my house.

I don't know how long I will be able to stay here, I can smell the propane already. Life flight helicopters are landing now. I may have to leave and be unable to respond to questions. News reportersare in front of my house with their cameras and have already started asking me their inane questions.

The President and his wife save on fuel by not attending the Washington party scene every night. I remember the complaining about that, when they first went into office. "They don't come to the parties" Waaaaa! They like to go to bed early. So think of all the gasoline they save!

You're right Velveeta. I thought of that not long after I posted. Duh, the source website is not new.

[Oorang]

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the logical thinking!
