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!
Threat Matrix - Daily Terrorism Threat
Threat Matrix: U.S. Terrorism
What's become of bin Laden since he gave us all the slip?
Full Story

Some think he is dead, others that he is hiding because he is scared of being killed.

Whatever the reason for the strange disappearance of Osama bin Laden, not seen alive since his last mocking video statement a year ago, he is no longer the face of the global "jihad" against the West.

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi { TM 25,TM 27 }, the Jordanian responsible for some of the worst atrocities in Iraq, has become the hero of the hour on militant Islamist websites.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
Office of the Spokesman
This information is current as of today, Mon Nov 14 2005 17:11:09 GMT-0800.

Uganda

November 14, 2005

This Public Announcement is being issued to alert Americans to ongoing security concerns associated with Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) attacks in northern Uganda and the potential for more LRA attacks in the future, and to advise against travel to northern Uganda. This Public Announcement expires on February 10, 2006.

The Department of State advises U.S. citizens against travel to northern Uganda following a series of recent LRA attacks that have killed foreign nationals and Ugandan citizens. In recent weeks, elements of the LRA have carried out road ambushes and other types of attacks throughout northern Uganda and southern Sudan. These attacks have resulted in at least six deaths. The most recent attack occurred on November 8, 2005, inside the boundaries of Murchison Falls National Park in Uganda, a popular tourist destination. Most of these attacks occurred during daylight hours, and some occurred in areas that were previously believed to be secure. Many aid organizations working in the area have adopted more stringent security measures as a result of these increased LRA attacks.

The Department of State advises Americans who live in the affected areas to exercise extreme caution and to restrict their activities to city centers. Due to ongoing security concerns, U.S. Government employees must have permission from the Chief of Mission to visit the following districts: Kotido, Moroto, Nakapiripirit, Apac, Lira, Gulu, Kitgum, Pader, Arua, Nebbi, Kisoro, Kanungu, Yumbe, Moyo, Adjumani, and Bundibugyo. These districts include all or part of several national parks.

Updated information on travel and security in Uganda may be obtained from the Department of State by calling 1-888-407-4747 within the United States, or, from overseas, 1-202-501-4444. American citizens should consult the Department of State’s Consular Information Sheet for Uganda and surrounding countries at http://travel.state.gov.

U.S. citizens who travel to or remain in the area despite this Public Announcement are strongly encouraged to register with the Embassy in Kampala or through the State Department’s travel registration website at https://travelregistration.state.gov. By registering, American citizens make it easier for the Embassy to contact them in case of emergency. The U.S. Embassy is located at Plot 1577 Ggaba Road. The phone number is (256) (41) 259 791, ext. 3137, fax (256) (41) 258 451, and email: KampalaUSCitizen@state.gov. For emergencies outside business hours or during any suspension of public services the Embassy Duty Officer can be reached at (256) (41) 259 791. The U.S. Embassy website is http://kampala.usembassy.gov.

"APEC Approves Plan to Test Airport Vulnerability to Missiles Attacks"
JIM GOMEZ
Associated Press Writer

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Officials from 21 Asia Pacific economies on Sunday endorsed a U.S. proposal to test whether major airports in their countries could repel a terrorist attack using shoulder-fired missiles, officials said.

The plan was approved only after officials overcame initial objections from China and several other countries that expressed fears tourism and other business could be harmed if their airports were found to be vulnerable, delegates involved on the discussions told The Associated Press.

The airport testing plan was among a range of counterterrorism initiatives considered by senior officials of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, who are meeting to hammer out agenda details for their leaders' annual summit on Friday and Saturday."

LOL!! It must be a bachelor thing. I've lived without a kitchen coming up on a year. It's amazing how one can adapt. I've always prided myself on being flexible and able to handle any situation that presents itself.

This is yet another case of our freedoms, our civil liberties, being used against it. Is anyone paying attention?"

If the Japanese Americans had videos of suicide bombers (plane type) within 48 hours of an attack in the 1940's, there's no doubt our government would have acted swiftly and efficiently. The same government is now wrapped up in political correctness - unable to function for fear of offending people who don't have the country's best interests at hand or heart. Interrogating prisoners in a Starbucks coffee encounter instead of the customary manner is what the PC crowd is after.

Sorry Cindy, if anyone is watching, they wouldn't dare speak up for fear of offending someone.

Very happy to have you back on TM Mossad!

I worked with a lady who would add to this..., "but Lord, can't you just leave me weak once in while?"

Hope things ease up on you.
