Al Qaeda again threatens New York, Washington and Los Angeles - Daily Terror Threat

A new message was posted in the last few hours by the Jeddah-based al-Qaeda-linked Al-Islah (Reform) society calling on Muslims to flee New York, Washington and Los Angeles in advance of major al Qaeda attacks in those cities. This is revealed by DEBKAfile.

The message accuses the United States of predetermining its end (doom) by its policies. ?The Jews rule the Pentagon by remote control and (are the cause) of Muslims being killed in every corner of the world. The United States should therefore expect more blows.?

The message is signed on behalf of the al Bayan (The Threat) movement by ?your warrior brother, Abul Hassan al Khadrami?.

Our Muslim expert identifies the name of the signatory as belonging to a Yemeni from Hadhrameuth, the Bin Ladens? place of origin where Osama enjoys substantial tribal support.

DEBKAfile?s counter-terror sources stress that warnings appearing on these forums are taken both very seriously and with caution by the intelligence services keeping track of the terrorist network?s electronic traffic.

Last November, Jeddah-based fundamentalist forums addressed a message to an Al Qaeda member, saying whoever understands ? understands; whoever knows, knows, but we are marching towards an operation that will take us to Paradise. Three days later, the Mombasa Paradise hotel was blown up killing 12 Kenyans and 3 Israelis and a failed shoulder-launched Strela anti-air missile missed an Israeli airliner at Mombasa airport.

>>>>Could this be camouflaged to appear as an ordinary (& safe) computer "thingy" & actually be a component that could be used to assemble something in an airplane restroom? I remember some years back, ME guys coming over from Canada with boxes of Casio watches and other items...all items appeared harmless until someone said that if you took them and added a couple of other items, you'd have a nice bomb.

I have no idea if this was a camouflaged item on this particular plane/incident. But I wanted to add a memory refresher.

Pan American 747 had a bomb hidden implemented in a boom box/radio.

Hmmmmm.....I have never seen one of these computer things and I wonder if security was very familiar with it (was it on list of things to check?). Maybe this just fell off of something but maybe it was put there so that security people would become more familiar with them and later might see one (that has been tampered with to be something other than it is) and just let it pass though security - thinking its just a computer thing. The original article didn't seem to match the item to a particular passenger and it would seem this would be easy to do...maybe they did later and I just didn't see an updated article.

What's the FR record for number of posts???

GOOGLE Search Term: "404 Gang"

Note: A lot of these results look like the spam I'm continually dumping.

>>Calpernia, was that discussion regarding area codes in this thread?

Yes it was. But I was adding that bit to support the fact that the 'poster' is also an FR 'reader'.

I would really have to do some heavy upstream swimming to find that post. If I can, I will tonight; but I am swamped with website work for a client.

I neglected to include the reference :TALIYAH.org - Taliyah Al-Mahdi (Discussion Forums)

Well, sorry about all this then. I only posted to this thread because it was the only one I'm currently following enough to post to. Although I do read most other articles on this site, this one has grabbed my attention. Much like all of yours. I guess I can't to anything to prove I'm not the enemy, but since this board has been so hostile, I'll take my leave. Sorry for interupting things.

Some Poster out of FLA just said the Cuban Army had been called out and Castro may be dead. The thread was pulled.

"What's the FR record for number of posts???"

About the same as the number of times that question has been asked....LOL

Actually There is a max of something like 65535. It has been reached. Do a search for the hobbit hole.

[Domestic Church]

Gotcha...now can it be set as a switch instead of a key (I bet it can somehow and that would be why the plane would turn around.)

[jstolzen]

I gotta say that this post from "Usama" had me rolling on the floor in stitches.

If there was ever ANY doubt as to if EOM was "real", this squashes it - TOTALLY.

Yeah. Usama posting on the CN&Y board from Iran. LOL!

Next, we'll have Elvis posting from Kalamazoo, MI - at the Burger King he's said to frequent.

Conclusion: "EOM" is "BS". A figment of someone's overactive imagination. (I have no doubt "he/she" posted < 9/11. This is not that person, but an imposter having some very twisted "fun" with people). Mentally disturbed, if you ask me.

Don't worry about it, I'll find it. Thanks for responding.

[jstolzen]

Could this be camouflaged to appear as an ordinary (& safe) computer "thingy" & actually be a component that could be used to assemble something in an airplane restroom?

No. I use these things daily. They change numbers randomly. There is no electrical output to wire into a detonation device, nor any way to predict what number will come up every 60 seconds.

This was an overreaction, but I'd rather have that than dead people.

Remember also that issues like maintaining teamwork, morale, distraction, attrition, and operational secrecy can be signs of growing pains in an organization, as well as signs that the organization is having management issues.

Heck any manager has to deal with those issues on any job - when I manage a web development project I have to deal with all of the above issues and the project staff isn't expected to martyr themselves.

Al Qaeda on the other hand really takes the phrase "working oneself to death" to the extreme.

Any idea what the "ibm" in the email header stands for?
