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

[history]
Monday, November 3, 2003
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.

"...it also has to do with mineral supplies in SA that are vital to US nuclear programs."
And certain nations in sub-sahara Africa have the mineral supplies as well and have been inundated with peacekeeping troops from places like China.
AFP- DUBAI : Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, his right-hand man Ayman al-Zawahiri and Taliban leader Mullah Omar are all in good health, according to a statement purportedly from the Taliban published on a Islamist website.
"The emir of the faithful, Mullar Omar, and sheiks Osama bin Laden and Ayman Zawahiri are in good health," said the statement from a body calling itself the Islamic Emirate of the Taliban in Afghanistan .
It was not possible to verify the authenticity of the statement, carried on the website groups.yahoo.com/group/globalislamicmedia/message/291 signed by "the vanguard of the Mujahedeen victory in Afghanistan ."

Don't Call the FBI and Don't Insult a Terrorist!
When my office staff opened up two large envelopes in Friday's mail they were shocked at what they found. One contained a sawdust type substance with a cryptic note that read "Here are some gardening supplies, mulch for a garden or flower bed etc."
The other contained two pieces of wood and a note that read, "Here are two pieces of redwood, something you might use for labeling in a line of vegetables in the garden."
Neither package had no return address, an apparent postal service violation since they both weighed over 16 ounces.
Because we live in a post 9/11 culture and have to deal with all that entails, I immediately called the FBI. The operator said the issue was one the FBI didn't deal with and I should call my local police department. As I had a luncheon appointment, I left the situation with Lori Archibeque, my administrative assistant at Joy Junction.
When I arrived back at the office, Lori told me, "The sheriff's department came out. The lady who came contacted (her bosses) who told her to call the FBI and Postal Inspector. She tried but the Post Office said they won't come out because there was no return address (imagine my suprise) and no threatening note. The FBI said they wouldn't come out and to tell us to dispose of it or call the fire department to do it."
To say that I was absolutely flabbergasted is an understatement. In this terror filled society in which we live, we are beseeched by law enforcement agencies call the authorities if we suspect anything suspicious or terror related. Then when I do that, they tell me to THROW AWAY an unknown substance (which they had never seen) to which two of my employees have been exposed because they opened what they believed to be a routine package for their employer. While the package may well be innocent, I will NOT be throwing it away until it has been tested and the safety of my staff is assured. Such an attitude makes me wonder about the effectiveness of the terror watch at least here in Albuquerque.
The next day I thought I might as well give the FBI another opportunity. I called and explained my situation to the operator who assured me that someone would give me a call back. While she was good to her word and contacted me a few minutes later neither her news or her attitude were very encouraging. "Mr. Reynalds, this situation has already been dealt with and the FBI will not be getting involved. Unless there's a direct threat, the FBI just doesn't get involved. I suggest you throw it away unless you don't feel comfortable doing so."
We exchanged a few more words and then I hung up the phone. I briefly pondered the situation. Was I being unreasonable? When discussing the situation with one of my sons he had said, "Dad, the FBI gets a lot of tips and they can't possibly respond to everyone."
True, but this was more than a tip. This was a package which contained an unknown substance. While in all likelihood it was totally harmless there was always that possibility that it was not. For the safety of my employees and my own peace of mind, I needed to know exactly what it was.
My curiosity was further piqued when I received an e- mail Saturday from Daleel Almojahid, a purported al Qaida operative with whom I have been corresponding in the United Arab Emirates. In the last few months, Almojahid has made lengthy demands upon the Bush Administration as well as suggesting the need for the evacuation of a number of American cities in light of imminent terrorist attacks.
While Almojahid said the contents of the package were nothing to worry about, he did add, "It could possibly be a warning messages from one of our groups in the US to you. I will double check on this and see what I can do just watch out and don't try to insult any of us ... "
The moral of the story is this. Depending on what part of the country you live in, there's probably not a whole lot of point in calling the FBI. But don't get discouraged and do nothing. Instead, try contacting www.rewardsforjustice.net instead if you have legitimate terror information. They appear to listen.

It was in Seibersdorf last summer that a scientist analysing dust taken from a cotton swipe used inside facilities in Iran discovered evidence of highly-enriched uranium - the key component of an atomic bomb. It was the first hint of a programme that had remained hidden for 18 years.
Like DNA from a crime scene, analysis of these particles also provides vital clues to the source of any nuclear material. Each radioactive isotope has its own signature.

Doesn't that go back to the Skyhook Australia connection? This Skyhook.... wasn't this some sort of big scandal in '98-99? It rings such a huge bell that I cannot place. It was a harassment-type thing?

..From the linked article
The executive proved any terrorist could fake such a pass in a European name, attempt to smuggle through explosives and have his pick of hand luggage to plant his bomb in.

Just like a belly dancer it will capture everyone's attention. Interesting. Twenty years ago I was at the hotel in Puerto Rico that was set on fire and over 100 people died. Just before the fire was set there were 10 or more very attractive girls in bikinis out on the beach jogging past the hotel. I assume it was a set up as a distraction.
