Welcome to Threat Matrix 2009.

So, I totally botched Ian’s code - but I may have managed to salvage all his links. (Ian, my apologies)

No clue how to add the main article link, so here it is:

New Terror Scare in Saudi Arabia - Alert for 85 al Qaeda Suspects
In what is being described as an "unprecedented global alert," the International Criminal Police Organization
today issued its largest-ever most wanted list for 85 terrorist suspects,
who are sought by Saudi Arabia for allegedly plotting attacks
against the country and for suspected links to al Qaeda.
"Never before has INTERPOL been asked to alert the world
about so many dangerous fugitives at one time,"
said Secretary General Ronald K. Noble in a statement.
"We know that we are approaching the
16th anniversary of the first World Trade Center bombing on Feb. 26, 2009
and therefore must be especially vigilant of fugitive al Qaeda terrorists."

Thanks, and my apologies in advance: Got a new IT guy whose only thought in life seems to be that restricting access to computers (and especially the internet) is the very best way he can do his job.

After a whole seven days on the job, he’s got me FRlurking and over half the office ready to feed him to the coyotes.

..just shakin’ my head. Guy’s gotta be an Obama voter.

Obama will look at an attack as a way to get re-elected. It should be a way to get him out of office if it happens for dropping our guard.

On the evening of the 14th I had the craziest dream. It was one of those that seemed to last all night and drone on forever. I was a customer at some business, my sales rep was also the owner. I kept seeing him typing on a keyboard. When I noticed the symbols on it were Arabic, I asked if he spoke Farsi (??) He said yes. I then noticed that his suit jacket was very expensive. Immediately after noticing that, I thought, “This guy is Iranian.” Then I woke.

Sometimes I leave the TV on, almost always set to Fox News. As I was waking, the breaking news gong sounded to announce the plane crash in Iran.

That was a strange experience.

Anyhoo — hello all and thanks Vel for another TM.

We are already under attack by Barack and the Rat congress.

Just hit Drudge. Reuters has a blurb:

A little more info on the train derailment just south of the Amtrak main yard in downtown Chicago:

Runaway Freight Train Derails

I heard this as it happened via the scanner, and knew this was a runaway train heading right into the main Amtrak (Union Station) terminal. Think Gene Wilder/Richard Pryor "Silver Streak". They intentionally knocked it off the rails about 1/2 mile from the main yard, but even that attempt was a near miss.

Hardly even mentioned in the TV news reports that an 8 car chain of locomotives was heading towards the Loop right in the middle of the morning.

Shepard Smith on FOX News just announced that there has been a mass shooting at Fort Hood in Texas - with at least 7 dead and 12 others wounded. The gunman is said to be in custody. That’s all the details they have currently.

Being away so long I don't know if these have been posted but I thought they are very relevant in light of the new terror attack on Fort hood:

Last night I laid and listened to Paul Sperry on Coast to Coast. As always he had my attention.Although Ian truly annoyed me with his PC attitude. Funny how one can always tag a bleeding heart lib .
