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.

my first freepspam. I thought it suspicious. signed up today but said has been using for a few day?

[SlowBoat407]

Fox needs an alert level reserved for big stuff, like a "Fox Flash" or something. I'm getting tired of hearing the gong because Natalee is still missing.

[SlowBoat407]

I'd actually be very nervous about downloading something like that to my computer, considering the number of people who want to do us harm. It could be a DUmmie trying to screw us all up, or even worse.

[appalachian_dweller]

I got the spam to SB. I just deleted it. It looked suspicious. We're a pretty tight group here on TM and I didn't recognize this person.

[SlowBoat407]

The person pushing it just joined today. Now I want to know: who outside of FR would consider creating a piece of software tailored to FR?

Very disconcerting, the more I think about it.

[bored at work]

whew, I thought I was just being paranoid :7)

[appalachian_dweller]

I wouldn't worry about it too much. We all know our enemies do monitor these threads; however, this was probably just another troll.

I was impressed with how fast this troll got the boot.

Good job Admin Mods! Thanks Much!

[nw_arizona_granny]

Thanks for finding the Denver article.

There were several shootings in Las Vegas over the weekend also, sounded as tho they were gang, or part did.

Vegas is getting a lot of the drive by and freeway shootings now.

>> FNC: (update: Officer Wayne Morgan dies of wounds) 3 suspects on loose-courthouse, Kingston,TN <<

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1459830/posts

These suspects are armed and extremely dangerous. Anyone in the Kingson, TN area should lock doors and windows and them themselves Locked N Loaded. These 3 suspects are BAD news.

[KylaStarr]

I haven't posted on the current thread and yet I received an email also!

Whoever sent it certainly did a lot of research to see who all has been on TM.

Deleted it immediately!

This may have been posted, if so ignore. please.

Iyman Faris was the truck driver who is in prison.

Have they waited all this time to close in on his cell?

[nw_arizona_granny]

Thank you for the fuel report for the plane.

It is enough to give one nightmares.

No, can't say it is a surprise.

[nw_arizona_granny]

vehicle was struck by a rock that was apparently thrown from
the nearby township water plant,<<<<<

Time for a little terrorist profiling.

Why were they at a water plant, in the middle of the night.

Taking measurements or adding 'what' to the water?

[flutters]

The story seems to have fizzled out in the local news scene. I'll watch the 6:00 news to see if they show a picture of the suspect.

[nw_arizona_granny]

Yes, I know of the groups, who would be rulers of us.

I do not like what I know about them.

If they come to power, we will not be able to fight them, not to win.

I have tried to guess which is the director of Soros, as I do not think he acts on his plans, but rather as a front.....

There is no way one man can be in all that Soros is.

Kinda like the "Betty Crocker" speaks for food and she does not exist.....

[flutters]

I don't think it is directly related. The plot and the terrorist, Iyman Faris and Nuradin Abdi, are both in prison. The bomb blot was from last year. However, I do think they are indirectly related because I believe we have a terrorist cell in central Ohio/Columbus. A few years ago (I couldn't find the link nor a news story) someone broke into the Municipal Court Building and left messages on chalkboards. They wrote things like "Remember Fallujah" and such. I don't know if the incident today ties into what happened...I wish I could find the link. Also, just this year we've had several incidents that didn't get much follow-up...the money contaminated with a virus that was found in Pennsylvania, the laser lights directed in plane cockpits, and we've also been deporting MS-13 gang members and leaders since last year. I try to keep my eyes on the news but sometimes its just no fun.

Egyptian chemist freed after detention over suspected tie to London bombings
July 9, 2005

CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Authorities released an Egyptian chemist Tuesday who was detained for questioning following the July 7 bombings in London, an Interior Ministry official said.

Magdy el-Nashar had been sought by Britain in connection with the attacks in London, which killed at least 56 people, including four bombers, in explosions on London's Underground and on a bus. El-Nashar was arrested by the Egyptians soon after the bombings, and officials from Scotland Yard travelled to Egypt to attend his questioning.

An official from the ministry's media office said he was released after authorities found no evidence against him and no links to either the attacks or to al-Qaida.

"He is at home," said the official on condition of anonymity because he was speaking before an announcement from the ministry.

"There is nothing against him," the official said when asked whether el-Nashar would be extradited to Britain. Egypt has previously said it would not hand him over.

A spokeswoman for London's Metropolitan Police had no comment, saying it was a matter for Egyptian authorities. The force has previously said it was liaising closely with the Egyptians following the July 7 bombings, but hasn't identified el-Nashar as a suspect.

El-Nashar, 33, who briefly studied at a North Carolina university and obtained a doctorate from Leeds University in England, was detained at the request of the British government, which suspected him of links to some of the four bombers, three of whom were from the northern city of Leeds.

Traces of TATP, used by bomber Richard Reid who failed in 2001 to blow up an airplane with explosives in his shoes, were reportedly found in el-Nashar's apartment during raids in Leeds.

Did only TM'ers receive the message? I got a FReepmail too.

Radical Muslim facing possible treason charges says he'll return to Britain
July 9, 2005

LONDON (AP) - A fundamentalist Muslim cleric facing possible treason charges in Britain said Tuesday he had travelled to Lebanon, but planned to return within six weeks.

Sheik Omar Bakri, the founder and spiritual leader of the radical Islamic group al-Muhajiroun, has been identified by British authorities as one of a number of radical clerics who could face charges if their public remarks are deemed to have incited terrorism.

Bakri told British Broadcasting Corp. radio that he left Britain on Saturday and was staying with relatives in Lebanon. He said he planned to return in four or six weeks.

"I am going to return back, unless the government say we are not welcome, because my family is in the U.K.," he said. "I do not think I will have any problem returning."

In remarks following the deadly July 7 London bombings, which killed 56 including the four suicide bombers, Bakri reportedly said he would not inform police if he knew Muslims were planning another attack. He also reportedly offered support for insurgents who attack troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

A spokeswoman for Britain's attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, said Sunday that prosecutors and police would look at Bakri's remarks to assess whether he could face charges of treason, incitement to treason, solicitation of murder, or incitement to withhold information known to be of use to police.

Bakri told the BBC he had condemned the London bombings, but insisted he wouldn't inform police if he knew Muslims were planning an attack.

"I never, ever talked about the bombings except to condemn the killing of innocent people," the cleric said.

But he added: "I will never report to the police any Muslim because Islam forbids me. Definitely I would stop him whatever the cost, even if it cost me my life. That is my duty as a Muslim."

Bakri, 46, is a native of Syria who came to Britain in 1985 after he was deported from Saudi Arabia.

Al-Muhajiroun is to be banned in Britain under anti-terror laws unveiled by Prime Minister Tony Blair last week. Bakri has claims that the group has ceased its activities in Britain.
