Al Qaeda again threatens New York, Washington and Los Angeles - Daily Terror Threat
Debka ^ | 11-3-2003 | Staff

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.

I don't know anything about the Canadian cargo plane -- I must have missed that story.

But, when I was just trying to search for that, I found this:

180 pounds of nuclear material missing in Canada

http://209.157.64.200/focus/f-news/1017261/posts

John Loftus now on Batchelor Alexander WABC reports: A student of Nuclear Engineering at McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario. has disappeared along with 180 pounds of nuclear waste stolen from the university's nuclear reactor. This happened several months ago but an alert has been ordered tonight in the USA and Canada. His name is ? Adnan al-ShoukriJumai, 27 years old, a Saudi national. A search is underway. The fear is that they may hijack a cargo plane in Canada. I hope to provide further details later on this thread.

You are right, that is the thread. Ok, it only mentioned a plane as a possibility.

Ok, goodnight and stay safe.

Daleel probably copied his message from the same Jihadi website, where Northeast Network found it, they have a very similar long message, translated from Arabic.

"Go out tomorrow and buy something EXTRA you don't need!! An in your face move, if you will"

Everyone's always asking " What can I do?" I'm good at spending money so I will do my part. : )

Back to the news, I heard on Fox this afternoon that UBL was almost spotted while traveling through the mountains recently by one of our planes according to one of his visitors. They had to hide under trees while the plane passed. Also, a Dr who treated him very recently said he is frail and not well. My thought about this is, if he is dying he would want to see his last plan carried out.

Tenet wanted to raise the terror level more than a week ago, Tom Ridge did not want to raise it until he had specific information because of the "sky is falling" cry wolf problem. He finally decided by Thursday that it had to be raised to orange and the President held off until today.

But after I saw the faces of the two guys standing behind Bloomberg when he made a statement this afternoon, I got serious.

That's because they have new, clear information.

Good call.

I basically agree with you with most of what you say, except one.

Just because an attack doesn't happen, doesn't mean the terrorists weren't planning one.

"Captured terrorists have said in interrogations that increased security discourages attacks, officials said."

Complacency is what the terrorists have counted on.

Well, we can keep this thread going, until the terror alert level is lowered to GREEN.

I agree jane, and I'm sure terrorists know about congressional hiatus, thus the 2-2-04 date seems more feasible
