Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat - Thread Thirty-Five

:::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.

DEMOCRATS GAMBLE WITH 10 MILLION LIVES

Here are some key facts:

1) The 9/11 commission has stated the al Qaeda considers it a solemn obligation to launch a nuclear attack against the United States.

2) The CIA has stated that it cannot account for missing nuclear material and that such material might already be in the hands of al-Queda.

3) The Mexican border is virtually wide open as an area through which such an attack might be launched. In some areas, such as Organ Pipe National Park, it has been possible to drive across completely undetected.

4) According to Adm. Loy, "al Qaeda plans to use Mexico's professional people smugglers, also known as coyotes, to infiltrate terrorists across our southern border. Adm. Loy's information is based on recent interrogations and has been confirmed by ongoing counter terrorist operations. This underground pipeline originates in countries as far away as China, Brazil and Nigeria, where professional smugglers charge thousands of dollars to transport aliens to the United States. Many of these smuggling networks converge in Mexico, where coyotes intimately familiar with the gaps in our security take over the task of transporting aliens beyond the border into our cities. Aliens who prefer can travel to Mexico's border towns and hire their own coyotes as guides for the final passage. To assist them, the Mexican Foreign Ministry has prepared a handbook for illegal aliens."

5) "Salim Boughader Mucharrafille was also ordered by U.S. District Judge Thomas Whelan to spend three years under supervised release and was fined $5,000. Boughader pleaded guilty in March to running a ring that helped more than 100 immigrants cross the border into San Diego. Most of the immigrants were Lebanese."

6) A few helicopter gun ships could seal the border instantly until a serious fence, land mines, or moat could be built or placed along the entire border. The loss of Mexican life would then be less than the loss currently incurred by Mexicans and others as they attempt to cross the long dessert; often on foot. Yes, yes it is politically incorrect and seemingly contrary to our Statute of Liberty image to use land mines and helicopter gun ships, but these would be trivial issues if there were 10 million dead Americans slowly dying from a chemical, biological, or nuclear attack.


7) The Statue of Liberty theme is dead and defunct. Half the world's refugees come to America now. Most of the world would become refugees and come to America because 200 years of Republican values have produced obvious results. That the America hating Democrats can't see is testimony to their treasonous stupidity. That Democrats would sell the Statue of Liberty theme and amnesty to every would be refugee on earth for votes is just another of their anti American tricks to maintain power.


8) We probably don't need Mexicans despite their cheap labor: 1) they consume more in social services than they pay in taxes 2) they steal jobs from poor Americans who then need social services 3) they encourage American poor to think of themselves as part of the entitlement class rather than the Republican working class, 4) their low wages discourage employers from automating many jobs such as lettuce and raisin picking 5) American poor are poor because of Democrats but vote for Democrats not realizing that Democrats have made them poor with immigrants and various welfare schemes 6) Legal Mexican poor and their sympathizers vote for Democrats who then favor more immigration and amnesty 7) they discourage respect for the law 8) they encourage the further Balkanization of America 8) they don't devote any energy to promoting Republican economic values in Mexico thereby further destroying Mexico and concomitantly creating the need for even more immigration to America.

7) "The polarizing debate over Proposition 187 (wherein Republicans favored modest just immigration "reform") in California has been correctly blamed for sinking the Republican Party in California, and possibly the entire country in the longer term, and allowing Democrats to dominate Sacramento."

8) The Democrats have concluded that the votes they get from an open nuclear border are more important than the potential nuclear attack on the United States.

US has new high-tech security scanner

Snippets: "Our primary function is to search for terrorists and weapons of mass destruction."Fifty-one aliens have been intercepted on U.S.-bound trains since the X-ray checks began about two years ago, he said.

Thinking INSIDE the box

Snip: These containers are loaded in far-flung places all around the world and, if things go according to the script, not opened until their final destination, perhaps a location in the midst of a large American city.

That final destination would be known when the container was loaded and at every step along its journey. So if a weapon were placed aboard at some point, the container could conceivably deliver its deadly cargo with stunning precision.

Iran may retalliate with terror if nuclear sites attacked

Snip: Citing prohibitions against discussing classified information, U.S. intelligence officials declined to say whether they have detected preparatory measures, such as increased surveillance, counter-surveillance or message traffic, on the part of Iran's foreign-based intelligence operatives.

Is that even possible? I know zip about warheads.

Whew I got a very odd page when I first clicked on post.

Anyway..... "That final destination would be known when the container was loaded and at every step along its journey. So if a weapon were placed aboard at some point, the container could conceivably deliver its deadly cargo with stunning precision."

That seems so easy doesn't it, all they need is the WMD. Who knows maybe they have done it already. I keep thinking about those POD things where they deliver the box to your door, you pack it they store it and ship it when you want.

Pods that carry military rockets in UK

If they can do it there - someone could do it here Snip: Ammunition for the MLRS is carried on the DROPS vehicle which is a Medium Mobility Load Carrier. Each DROPS vehicle with a trailer can carry 8 x Rocket Pod Containers and there are 15 x DROPS vehicles supporting the 9 x M270 Launcher vehicles within each MLRS battery.

That's a good question.
The posts were so vile I truly wonder if FR has been infiltrated by leftists.

I don't think anything but her neck separated from her body, would have made some of them feel one iota of sympathy.

Hole discovered drilled into pipe at Miami-Dade nuclear reactor

FLORIDA CITY, Fla. - Officials conducting a routine inspection of a nuclear reactor at the Turkey Point power plant found a small holed drilled into a pipe that helps maintain pressure, and investigators were trying to determine if the hole was drilled accidentally or deliberately, Florida Power & Light officials said Saturday.

The nuclear reactor, one of two at the Miami-Dade County power plant, had been shut down for a routine refueling, FPL spokeswoman Rachel Scott said.

The 1/8-inch hole was discovered late Thursday during a series of tests and inspections performed before bringing the unit back online, Scott said.

Other maintenance work had been performed in the area where the hole was found, Scott said.

FPL, the state's largest electric utility, repaired the damaged piping and, though the company's investigation continues, plans to bring the unit back into service in about a week, she said.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission and FBI are also conducting their own investigations.

"We want to make sure that we do a very thorough investigation and that we evaluate all possibilities," Scott said.

FPL customers were not affected by the routine shutdown, Scott said. The power plant's second nuclear unit as well as two units powered by oil and natural gas were fully operational, and the plant was in no danger, she said.

Florida City is about 30 miles southwest of Miami.
