Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat - Thread Thirty-Five

Posted on 03/09/2006 10:08:04 PM PST by nwctwx

:::FreeRepublic's Threat Matrix:::
Unrest in Pakistan Setback for Terror War
(Full Story)

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan -- A week of unprecedented urban fighting in the wild tribal belt of North Waziristan has left scores dead and forced thousands to flee their homes, raising the stakes in Pakistan's war on Islamic militancy along the Afghan border.

A jumbled alliance of foreign militants, local tribesmen and Islamic students eager for jihad have stepped up resistance in a region where the army already claims to have wiped out al-Qaida as a viable fighting force.

The unrest, brewing for months, is a setback to the U.S.-led war on terror. Further hampering that effort are deteriorating relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan over Afghan claims that Taliban leader Mullah Omar is hiding in Pakistan and suicide bombers are training here.

ACLU renews push for 'threat list' secrets
Newsday ^ | March 21, 2006 | WAYNE PARRY

Posted on 03/21/2006 7:20:40 PM PST by Jay777

The American Civil Liberties Union is renewing its efforts to pry loose secret data about individuals and organizations that local governments consider potential terrorist threats.

After litigating the issue for nearly two years, the group's New Jersey chapter is filing requests under the state's Open Public Records Act, seeking information contained on applications for federal anti-terror funding. The applications list up to 15 "potential threat elements" _ individuals or groups that could be considered potential terrorist threats.

The ACLU is seeking the disclosure of the names of the individuals or groups, or failing that, the criteria used to select them for inclusion on the list.

"Sadly, we know that the federal government has recently spied on or targeted organizations, such as the Quakers and pro-peace groups, not because they pose a threat but rather due to their political beliefs," said Edward Barocas, the ACLU's legal director. "We want to make sure that our own New Jersey government officials are not doing likewise."

It's not the first time the group has sought the information. It filed an initial request with 50 New Jersey municipalities in April 2004.

Most responded that they had not filed such documents, but some claimed the records were exempt from disclosure on security grounds, or that the state Attorney General's Office had ordered them not to make the data public.

After the ACLU sued the Attorney General's Office, it said it had not instructed anyone to withhold the information.

That led the ACLU to send new requests for the information to nine municipalities: Edison, Linden, Middletown, Mount Laurel, Newark, Parsippany, Trenton, Wayne and West New York.

The audit found deficiencies in more than 50% of the records of the employees on the company's payroll.

Wonder what the statistics are for putting qualified unemployed American citizens to work doing this work? 50% of employee records are deficient - simply means Human Resources isn't doing it's job hiring these workers and there should be job openings (replacing incompetents) in that department as well.

****" The Homeland Security Department is continuing to investigate this case.***"****

IMHO Homeland Security won't have credibility until it enforces America's borders vigorously and deports the majority of those who have no business being here. Until then, there's too much Homeland Insecurity, not knowing who is here who shouldn't be, and who may be coming here who may be terrorists or violent gang members.

The REAL issue with social security funds is how they are administered to people who have no legal right to collect them. THAT never is brought up for discussion and I'll venture it is in the billions annually (disabilities, social security and welfare payments) I'd venture to guess it is so high an amount, it would pay for excellent border security and/or we would be able to fund superior supplies for American troops.

Why would ANY foreigner become an American citizen when they stand to reap a lot more benefits simply by NOT taking citizenship, by saying they are addicted to drugs or disabled, dropping a baby on American soil, or learning quickly (albeit not necessarily in English) how to sign up for welfare and food stamps.
