"Threat Matrix is a politically incorrect zone"
From TM'er and Freeper ~Oorang~



Threat Matrix : Code of Conduct
Please pay close attention:
PLEASE FOLLOW THE RULES

***Updated FR Excerpt and Link Only or Deny Posting List due to Copyright Complaints***

There will be NO bashing any mods, it will be taken private or there will be NO MORE Threat Matrix !!! That comes from the top!

Please everyone here review the following rules, they are not posted just for fun, they must be adhered to!

Do lead by example - Nothing improves a forum more than posters who reason sharply, write well, and have some perspective about it all. Be one of them.

Do preview - Preview twice, post once. And, ahem, close your HTML tags before you hit the reply button.

Do keep it clean - A bruise or two between Freepers is tolerable, but refrain from abusive attacks, engaging in senseless flame wars, and using profane language. Considering the range of topics we discuss, it's hard to be a family site, but that's what we aim for when at all possible.

Do "take it to the Alley" - The Alley is a public chat room. A link to it is provided on the latest posts page. Invite people there if you want to talk things over or settle a score, so to speak, off site.

Do use common sense - If you read a post that sounds too good or strange to be true, it probably is.

Do stay on topic - FR has varied topics for whatever you need to say

Do keep "vanity" posts to a minimum - Free Republic is primarily a place to discuss news, articles, and editorials. Vanity posts, creations of the poster him or herself, should meet a high standard of quality before one is even considered worthy of posting.

Don't jump threads - If you get involved in an argument in one thread, it's considered poor manners to restart the previous argument in the middle of an unrelated thread.

Don't play games - Don't represent yourself as another person, create or use another screen name to avoid a revocation of posting privileges, misrepresent the site or your role in it

We cannot stress the following enough:
{{{Don't be a whiner - If you really, really find Free Republic or Threat Matrix not to your liking, let the webmaster know directly (jimrob@psnw.com), learn to live with it, or move along.}}}

Thanks for the ping, Ian. Great job as usual. I'm not hanging out here as much as I used to...I'm sort of taking a break and recharging my batteries before the critical period preceding the '06 election. What was the timeline for the Madrid Attack? How close was the attack to the election? Because I'd be looking for a repeat here.

Something really eerie happened to me last weekend. I was down south of Miami in the area of Homstead, FL. Stopped for gas in a really rundown area right across the street from what can only be described as a "ghetto" housing project. I only stopped for gas because it was a really LOW price for my area: $2.27 for regular. As usual, I was armed with a Glock M27 and a hi-cap sp magazine under my cover garment. As I pumped the gas, I was on ultra alert and I noticed an unusual sound wafting on the warm breezes from the direction of that nearby housing project. It was music. Or possibly a musical CHANTING. It sounded exactly like the Islamic call to prayer. The area was utterly still. No movement anywhere. Filled my tank and left. But it got me to wondering the size of the muslim population in South Florida. Anybody know? Because we also have the second biggest population of their mortal enemies...namely...Jews. I wonder....In the anticipation of another massive 911 style strike....there may be follow-on attacks at the local level between random shooters or worse bombers and targets of opportunity. Islamic population density may well determine the levels of violence that can be anticipated. What do y'all think?

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Judge Paul Paruk, in Hamtramck District Court, told Muhammad she had to take off her niqab; a scarf and veil, which covers her face and head except for her eyes, or he would dismiss her case. The judge said he needed to see her face so he could judge her truthfulness when she testified."

"Hezbollah in talks over prisoner swap"

Wednesday 01 November 2006, 7:37 Makka Time, 4:37 GMT



ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Nasrallah said in an interview with the Hezbollah television station, Al-Manar, that a negotiator appointed by Kofi Annan, the United Nations secretary-general, has been meeting both Hezbollah and Israeli officials.

He would not provide details about the negotiations, but said that both sides had "reached a stage of exchanging ideas, proposals or conditions".

"They are serious negotiations. It's better to keep it away from the media [but] this issue is on track and we are moving ahead," he said on Tuesday.

Nasrallah has offered to exchange the two for Arab prisoners in Israeli jails, but Israel has repeatedly refused.

Although the UN resolution that ended the 34-day war called for the soldiers' unconditional release, Israel has exchanged prisoners in the past.

Resistance 'strong'"

"Iraq-Sniper Video
Al-Jazeera airs more sniper video"
(Cairo, Egypt-AP, Oct. 22, 2006 9:00 PM) --

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "More video has aired, allegedly showing Iraqi snipers targeting American troops.

This latest footage was broadcast by al-Jazeera, the Arab satellite channel often criticized by U-S officials as a terrorist tool.

The video shows at least three soldiers falling to the ground after apparently being shot by snipers in separate attacks. It's unclear when or where the attacks took place. The footage was stamped with the emblem of the Islamic Army in Iraq, a major Sunni Arab insurgent group."

"Pro-caliphate group targets Zanzibar"

Tuesday 31 October 2006, 21:59 Makka Time, 18:59 GMT


ARTICLW SNIPPET: "Hizb ut Tahrir, a pan-Islamic group banned in several countries, has launched a new campaign in politically volatile Zanzibar, an island off the coast of Tanzania.


The new campaign began when the group put up a series of posters overnight on Monday on the main island of the semi-autonomous Indian Ocean archipelago.

The posters read simply 'The Solution is Khilaffa'. The slogan refers to the group's aim of creating a worldwide caliphate - or Islamic state - led by a single Islamic leader.

"We are part of the international alliance calling and believing that Muslims should be led by one caliphate," Chande Khamis, a member of the group, said in Zanzibar's business district on Tuesday.

Zanzibar is 95 per cent Muslim, and its ties with mainland, mainly Christian, Tanzania have been strained in recent years."
