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.

Muslim group warns on anti-terror laws
Financial Times ^ | November 7 2005 | Jimmy Burns

Posted on 11/07/2005 11:59:37 AM PST by mdittmar

The government’s anti-terror legislation risks fuelling community
tensions similar to those that provoked violence in France, the Islamic
Human Rights Commission has warned.

“What may happen here, as in France, is a sense of growing alienation
of Muslims that feels excluded from mainstream society and that could
be very dangerous,” Massoud Shadjareh, the commission’s chairman,
told the FT.

In recent weeks, Muslim organisations, including the Muslim Council of
Britain and the Muslim Association of Britain, have raised concerns
about the new terror laws.

But the critique of the government’s anti-terror strategy, published on
Monday by the commission, challenged attempts by the prime minister
to play down the concerns.

Tony Blair said earlier on Monday it was “patronising” to assume that
Muslims would be particularly concerned about the prospect of people
being held without charge for 90 days. “The Muslim community knows
perfectly well how important it is to tackle terrorism, because terrorist
acts cause difficulty for them,” he said.

Note to Massound Shadjareh:
It is up to you to learn our ways and integrate into our society. It is you who must accept OUR customs, not the other way around. If you find this unacceptable, LEAVE and don't come back.

We are not France. You and our ilk start a riot here, expect to get hurt.

Al Qaeda Near Biological, Chemical
Arms Production
By Barton Gellman, Washington Post Staff Writer



Al Qaeda leaders, long known to covet
biological and chemical weapons, have
reached at least the threshold of
production and may already have
manufactured some of them, according
to a newly obtained cache of
documentary evidence and interrogations
recently conducted by the U.S.
government.


Three people with access to written
reports said the emerging picture depicts
the al Qaeda biochemical weapons
program as considerably more advanced
than U.S. analysts knew. The picture
continues to sharpen daily, one official
said, because translation and analysis of
the documents continues, and because
the operative captured with them began
divulging meaningful information about
production plans only this week.
Authorized government spokesmen
declined to discuss the subject, saying it
is classified.


*(snipped)


Leaders at the top of al Qaeda's
hierarchy, the evidence shows,
completed plans and obtained the
materials required to manufacture two
biological toxins -- botulinum and
salmonella -- and the chemical poison
cyanide. They are also close to a feasible
production plan for anthrax, a far more
lethal weapon, which kills 90 percent of
untreated victims if spread by inhalation
and as many as 75 percent of those
treated when the first symptoms become
evident. Among the documents seized
was a direction to purchase bacillus
anthracis, the bacterium that causes
anthrax disease.


Most of the new information comes from
handwritten documents and computer
hard drives seized during the March 1
capture of Khalid Sheik Mohammed,
regarded by some government analysts
as al Qaeda's most important
operational planner. Known inside al
Qaeda as "the Brain," Mohammed has
acknowledged being the principal author
of the Sept. 11, 2001, plot.


Significantly,
one official noted, Mohammed was
arrested at a Rawalpindi, Pakistan, home
owned by Abdul Quddoos Khan, a
bacteriologist with access to production
materials and facilities who has since
disappeared.

It will be up to you and those like you, the Minutemen of America to defend the country.

But keep in mind that the liberals on the west coast and the many other areas that have outlawed guns will not fight for the country.

I live in tornado alley and have stayed up many nights waiting for the all clear. Tornado strike at all times of the day and night, it is just harder to get good video of them at night.

I also pray for all the folks in the path of the one 2 days ago. It is so sad. A tornado hit near here several years ago, during a children's play at the elementary school, it killed so many parents and children, the town did rebuild with a basement in the new school.

Oops, some one on FOX NEWS just said this is a Ramadan offensive and will spread world wide. I certainly hope not. It has spread to Germany, Belgium, and Denmark.

Most observers searching for the root causes of the riots accuse successive governments of turning a blind eye as immigrant ghettos, synonymous with unemployment and social deprivation, swelled outside France's big cities.

That's what lackadaisical immigration (or illegal immigration for that matter) gives a country. Now if Homeland Security and the Dept. of Immigration didn't delegate this responsibility to the Minutemen...

“They wanted to know if we had a copy of ‘The Anarchist’s Cookbook,’ which we don’t,” Rushton said. “The Anarchist’s Cookbook” details how to make homemade explosives such as pipe bombs and Molotov cocktails.

We'd like to know that too. Lots to learn at our nation's universities that isn't for good of mankind purposes.

Good afternoon Cindy. Would have been online sooner but the internet here was down.

Just catching up on the french riot situation. Seems to be spinning out of control. Not good. Check out #167 on this thread for a map of the trouble spots.

They are certainly calling for it to spread to the UK. I posted a translation from a jihadi site earlier today on my page.
