Threat Matrix: October 2006

Posted on 10/01/2006 5:29:13 PM PDT by nwctwx

:::FreeRepublic's Threat Matrix:::
Karzai Says bin Laden Not in Afghanistan
-Full Story-

President Hamid Karzai has insisted that Osama bin Laden is not in his country, in the latest installment in a row with the leader of Pakistan who says the Al-Qaeda chief is in Afghanistan.

Other militant leaders including Islamist warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar were also not in the country, Karzai told reporters in a briefing about his visit to the United States that was overshadowed by the spat.

'I can assure you they are not in Afghanistan,' Karzai said yesterday after being asked for his reaction to comments by Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf who said Thursday that bin Laden is here.

Could a terrorist smuggle military hardware into Canada?

Snip: A Calgary businessman has been caught smuggling two fighter jets into the country, costing him and his company $100,000 in fines, police and customs officials said Tuesday.

Michael Carl Smith, 47 of Calgary, pleaded guilty in provincial court yesterday to bringing two U.S.-registered Aero Vodochody L-39 jets into Canada without paying applicable taxes, said RCMP Staff Sgt. Ken Chatel.

Quebec's Christian schools threatened

Snip: Christian evangelical schools in Quebec, Canada have been told they must teach Darwin's theory of evolution and sex education, or close their doors.

US hiring practices left at border

Snip: When Michigan-based automotive supplier Lear Corp. needed a secretary for its office in the central state of Guanajuato, it placed a classified ad seeking a “female ... aged 20 to 28 ... preferably single ... with excellent presentation.” And to make sure it got the right candidate, Lear asked applicants to include a recent photo with their resumes.

In the United States, that ad might draw howls of protests and trigger lawsuits and hefty fines. But in Mexico, where jobs are scarce and enforcement of anti-discrimination laws all but nonexistent, employers routinely select hires on criteria more appropriate for a beauty contest.

Job seekers who are considered too old, too chunky or too dark are screened out. What is less known is that many U.S. corporations including Coca-Cola, Pepsi Bottling, Shell Oil and 7-Eleven are engaging in hiring practices that appear to violate their fair-employment policies in the United States.

This is really weird.

Remember a couple of years back when scientists were disappearing or jumping off bridges?

This could be the basis of a good mystery novel.

Except these are real men who are disappearing.

Prayers up for Piotr.

Federal Reserve Bank assisting illegal alien lawbreakers

Snip: The Fed is currently devising several programs that will extend banking services to illegal aliens, according to The Wall Street Journal. Most of this money transfer scheme is being created under the radar and few, if any, political figures are discussing the subject.

One proposal is for a new remittance program with the ultimate goal of bringing illegal Mexican aliens -- who send money home -- into the mainstream the US financial system, regardless of immigration status. In other words, The Federal Reserve Bank is attempting to aid lawbreakers in moving their cash around in the US and Mexico.

"Directo a Mexico," the name of the program, enables US commercial banks to make money transfers for Mexican workers through the Federal Reserve's own automated clearinghouse, which is linked to Banco de Mexico, the Mexican central bank. Few Americans are aware of the connection between the Fed and foreign banks and this program would be just another that exists in the shadow world of international banking.

To use the service, a Mexican need only possess a matricula consular, an ID issued by the Mexican consulate in most major US cities to those with proof of Mexican birth or citizenship, or a picture ID card issued by the US or another foreign government. The idea is to make it cheaper and safer for illegal workers to send funds to their relatives in Mexico.

While on the surface, this may appear to be a good idea for banks, it's an idea based on lawbreakers being given assistance in moving their money around. The Mexican drug trafficker will be able to take advantage of this new banking system as much as the illegal worker cleaning toilets.

In one of the articles, the ex-wife is quoted:

>>She said last year Drabik told her he was going home to Poland, but in fact he went trekking in the Himalayas.<<

The Himalayas stretch across six nations: Bhutan, China, India, Nepal, Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Thanks for pointing that out Velveeta.
Good observation.

Bhutan, China, India, Nepal, Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Any one, or all of those nations I personally would consider unsafe for hiking alone.

Teacher arrested after making bomb threat at school

Snip: Kane said police and school officials reviewed a security videotape when classes resumed and saw a recording of Fisher sticking a note to the wall. Kane said the note singled out school principal Brett Bishop, saying: "Bomb. Boom. (Expletive) Bishop." After officials watched the videotape, Fisher was called away from her classroom to Bishop's office and arrested, Kane said.

For venison eaters, the states where cwd is confirmed

Snip: States where CWD is confirmed in wild deer or elk include Colorado, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, South Dakota, Utah, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. CWD is also found in Saskatchewan and Alberta, Canada. Some of the states or provinces also have game-export regulations that Montana hunters must follow.
