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.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


TERRORISTS KILLED IN HUSAYBAH AIR STRIKE IDENTIFIED

BAGHDAD, Iraq – Coalition Forces identified five al-Qaida leaders killed by an air strike in Husaybah Oct. 29.

Coalition Forces conducted a series of raids on suspected terrorist and foreign fighter safe houses to capture or kill terrorists operating in the town of Husaybah. During the raids, Coalition forces destroyed three safe houses with air strikes using precision guided munitions.

One of the safe houses destroyed was the location of an apparent meeting between al Qaida in Iraq (AQIZ) terrorist leaders from the Husaybah and Al Qaim areas.

Coalition Forces now confirm the deaths of five key al Qaida in Iraq (AQIZ) terrorist leaders who were killed in that meeting. They are:

§ Abu Asil, a North African terrorist, was the senior AQIZ foreign fighter facilitator in the Al Qaim region and an associate of Zarqawi. His influence stretched across Al Anbar province and he was relied upon to provide foreign fighters and suicide bombers to AQIZ terrorist cells in the region. Asil had contacts throughout the Middle East who were involved in the recruiting, transportation, training and smuggling of foreign fighters and suicide bombers into Iraq.

§ Abu Raghad, a senior AQIZ foreign fighter terrorist cell leader who operated in the Husaybah area. He was responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing attacks against coalition forces. Those attacks include the emplacement of IEDs and mines and the facilitation, production and use of VBIEDs.

§ Abu Talha, an AQIZ terrorist cell leader in the Ubaydi area. Talha directed, planned, coordinated and executed terrorist attacks in and around Ubaydi. Specifically, Talha’s cell was responsible for the production, and emplacement, and implementation of IED and VBIED attacks in the area.

§ Abu Usama and Abu Salman, AQIZ terrorist cell leaders in the Husaybah area who were active in carrying out local terrorist attacks. Besides planning and conducting terrorist attacks, they procured weapons such as rockets, anti-aircraft missiles and mines for use against coalition forces. The weapons then would be distributed to their terrorist cells to be used in attacks against Iraqi Security and Coalition forces.

To provide information on terrorists, foreign fighters, and former regime members by calling the nationwide tips hotline at 130 (within Baghdad) and 01-130 (outside of Baghdad).

I really don't have a ping list and never will due to time constraints.

HOWEVER, I'm here almost everyday on The Threat Matrix, and update the following personal, non-commercial (have to stress that) sites several times daily:

http://www.truthusa.com

and all the pages that go with those 2 links.

That might be helpful.

British Terror Suspect Had Images of Capitol, U.S. Officials Say
AP via TBO ^ | Nov 4, 2005 | Mark Sherman

Posted on 11/04/2005 5:26:20 PM PST by ncountylee

WASHINGTON (AP) - A terror suspect arrested in England had images of the Capitol and other Washington landmarks on his computer, according to federal authorities who were skeptical that an attack on the capital was being planned.

Younis Tsouli, 22, was one of three men charged with a variety of terrorism offenses. One of the charges against Tsouli alleges that a video stored on the hard drive of a computer in his bedroom showed how to make a car bomb and another showed a number of places in Washington.

The charge sheet did not name the places. However, a U.S. law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity Friday, said the Capitol was among the locations contained in short video clips.

Terrance Gainer, chief of the U.S. Capitol Police, discounted the idea of a serious threat to the Capitol.

"I don't believe there's any direct threat to the Capitol," he said. "I believe that's shared by the intelligence community."

A U.S. counterterrorism official who also spoke on condition of anonymity said investigators believe the men may have been involved in "jihadist bravado."

The law enforcement and counterterrorism officials asked not to be identified because the investigation is continuing.

Tsouli, Waseem Mughal, 22, and Tariq Al-Daour, 19, made a brief appearance Friday in a London court, speaking only to confirm their names and ages. Judge Daphne Wickham ordered the three, all from the London area, to remain in custody until another court appearance Nov. 18.

Scotland Yard said the arrests were not linked to the July suicide bombings in London, which killed 56 people, including the four attackers.

Lexington, KY
Paris Independent Schools Closed For Second Day After Another Bomb Threat
LEX Ch.18 - 11/04/05
A second bomb threat in two days, this one placed on the front door of a school, has caused the three Paris Independent Schools to be closed again Friday.
Police are investigating whether or not the threats are related. A bomb threat found Thursday was in the form of a note left under the wiper of a school bus that was located near another bus that was vandalized in the Paris school bus lot. Police say the vandalized bus had a rag stuffed into the gas tank and it appeared someone ignited it.
About 750 students were affected. All three schools, elementary, middle and high school, are at the same location.
Police say they searched schools but found no evidence of any bombs. Schools, however, remained closed for the day on Thursday.


White Co., GA:
Bomb threat empties high school
White County News-Telegraph - 11/04/05
A bomb threat was called in to the White County 911 Center Tuesday morning, warning of explosives at White County High School. Chief Deputy John O'Brien of the White County Sheriff's Department said the call came from a third party who apparently overheard another individual discussing explosives at the high school. O'Brien said the sheriff's department could not confirm the identity of the caller or determine a reason for the bomb threat. The sheriff's department immediately contacted WCHS, and within 40 minutes students were evacuated.
Six officers and two bomb-sniffing dogs investigated the school building and grounds, and found no evidence of explosives. O'Brien said one of the dogs came from the Georgia Department of Corrections and the other was from Hall County. When law enforcement determined that the building was secure, faculty and students returned to school. O'Brien said such threats must be taken seriously and thoroughly checked out each time they are received.

Investigators are looking into an apartment complex fire that they deemed suspicious. The fire broke out at the Edgewater Apartments on West Winston Avenue shortly before 9:30 Wednesday night.
Thursday, fire investigators combed through the debris -- they believe the fire started in apartment 99 and quickly spread to adjoining units.

The fire started around 5 a.m. Friday at a home in the 2400 block of Taft road, near the intersection of M-40 and M-89.
Authorities say the house had been abandoned for several years and had no power, which makes them suspicious of the cause.

(...)"I could not find a natural cause," Perkins said of the second fire. "I listed the cause as incendiary and turned the case over to the Police Department. Two houses on the same block, I think you can safely say they were probably related."

ICRC seeks to see all U.S.-held terrorism suspects
Reuters UK:
GENEVA (Reuters) - The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) called on Thursday for access to all foreign terrorism suspects held by the United States after a report of a covert CIA prison system for al Qaeda captives.
The Washington Post said on Wednesday the CIA had been hiding and interrogating inmates at a secret facility in Eastern Europe, among so-called "black sites" in eight countries under a global network set up after the September 11, 2001 attacks.
"We are concerned at the fate of an unknown number of people captured as part of the so-called global war on terror and held at undisclosed places of detention," Antonella Notari, chief ICRC spokeswoman, told Reuters in response to a question.


Brussels, Belgium:
Terrorism Trial Begins in Belgium
Science Daily/UPI:
BRUSSELS, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- The trial of 13 men accused in Belgium of being part of a terrorist organization has been adjourned until Nov. 16.
Security was tight at the court in Brussels during Thursday's proceedings, Expatica reported. The trial is the first in Belgium under a 2003 law that makes membership in a terrorist group a crime carrying a 10-year prison sentence.
The defendants allegedly belong to the Moroccan Islamic Combatant Group or GICM. Prosecutors say that the group has ties to Al-Qaida and helped the bombers in the 2004 attack on commuter trains in Madrid that killed 191 people.
Khalid Bouloudou, one of the defendants, is also alleged to have supported the Casablanca bombing, which killed 45 people.


AL QAEDA/AL QAIDA:

Baghdad, Iraq:
Al Qaeda in Iraq threatens to attack foreign missions
Khaleej Times - 11/04/05
BAGHDAD - Sunni-led insurgents killed six Iraqi police at a checkpoint on Friday and fired a mortar round that struck a home outside the capital, killing a mother and child, as Shias began celebrating a major Muslim holiday. Also, Al Qaeda in Iraq threatened more attacks on diplomats here.
On Friday, the US military said it had killed five senior Al Qaeda in Iraq figures during an airstrike last Saturday in Husaybah near the Syrian border. The five, including at least one North African, were responsible for bombings against US and Iraqi forces, the announcement said.
Friday’s worst attack by insurgents occurred at an Iraqi police checkpoint in Buhriz, 55 kilometers (35 miles) north of Baghdad.
The insurgents fired mortar rounds, then arrived in eight cars and opened fire, a police officer said. At least six policemen were killed and 10 wounded in the ensuing gunbattle, and it was not immediately known if any militants were hurt, the officer said, speaking on condition of anonymity out of concern for his own safety.
(...)The Al Qaeda threat to foreign diplomats was contained in a statement posted on an Islamic Web site. It was posted one day after the country’s most feared terror group announced it had condemned two Moroccan embassy employees to death.
“We are renewing our threat to those so-called diplomatic missions who have insisted on staying in Baghdad and have not yet realized the repercussions of such a challenge to the will of the mujahedeen,” the Friday statement said.
The latest Al Qaeda statement appeared as majority Shias began the three-day religious holiday of Eid al-Fitr, which ends a month of fasting during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

FR THREAD: "Biohazard" Break-in (OU)

PARIS RIOTS:

From Radio Netherlands:
Paris: the ticking time bomb goes off
(...)It is nine o’clock, and a new evening full of violence and arson has begun. Every evening since Thursday, 27 October, the suburbs of Paris have been struck by serious riots. Youths take to the streets, light fires and engage in battles with the police.
(...)Suddenly, there’s the sound of shouting from the end of the street. André Sirguey and his neighbour walk over, and see a line of about 30 police officers, helmets on, shields in hand. They’ve sealed off the street. Opposite them: the banlieu youths; immigrant boys with their hoods pulled over their heads, who stand defiantly in the middle of the street, yelling “come on then! Come on if you dare!” at the riot squad facing them.
Battlefield
Scarcely two minutes later, and the street has been transformed into a battlefield. The youths hurl petrol-bombs, bottles and rubbish at the police. A shrubbery is set on fire and a skip is pushed into the middle of the street. It is also set alight.
(...)Paris riots The officers stay in their places, deflecting bottles with their shields. When the young men come too close with their petrol bombs, rubber bullets are fired. Tear gas is kept near to hand, but it isn’t used. Again, this evening, Aulnay-sous-Bois is the stage for what some people say is urban guerilla warfare and what the extreme right calls ethnic civil war.
(...)People getting angry
In the mosque at Clichy-sous-Bois, a couple of kilometers south of Aulnay, its chairman Abderrahmane Bouhout wants to give his analysis of the situation. The visitors to the mosque, however, are getting angry. Why talk to the press? They only paint a negative picture of Muslims here, they snarl at him.
Later on, outside the mosque, Mr Bouhout tells his side of the story. “People in this area don’t have any work, the young people don’t have anything to do,” he says, as the mosque fills up with men for evening prayer. It only needed something to spark it off.” A youth-worker, who has also come to pray, adds his opinion. “It’s a timebomb here! They’ve created ghettos, shoving all the immigrants together and then just letting things run their course over the years. Now the bomb has exploded.”
