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.

You are the one who is picking and choosing. If you did not agree with the whole statement then you should have never agreed to it in the first place. You should have clarified what part you agreed with. Don't blame me if you agree with a whole statement and I then take your word for it. If what you now say is true then you should have made your statement about the post that offended you. Not relied on one that was serious flawed and attacked the religion you claim to be. On the one hand you are attacking someone who critisized your religion and on the other hand you are defending another person who did the same thing in a different way.

If you can't seen what I am talking abou then I am just waisting my breath. I am done.

And in any case...Since it is Christmas...Then once again Merry Christmas.

>>Nothing corny about it.

After 9/11, a lot of us were willing to do whatever it took. If this is all we can do, it's more than many do and it takes time, effort and some analysis - all of which you and other Freepers have demonstrated you are willing and able to provide.

Kudos to you and thanks for all your work.<<

Couldn't have said it any better.

Merry christmas everyone!

That's a specious Clintonian legalism, newbie.

As you well know, the entire Islamist world has proclaimed the 9/11 "attacks" (as you say), a Great Muslim Victory. I'm not gonna' provide cites, you know it's true as does everyone else. Do a Google search.

And "zero Muslims have been charged" because they're all dead after committing the twin blasphemies of suicide and murder on 9/11.

Your cute twists in logic really don't work well here, why don't you go over to the jihadi forums to cheer on the murderers.

I just read your post no 3570: "Call me a disrupter, but I am just looking out for my Muslim brothers. Bashing religion or using it to justify a war on terror is never right.

Threats of Terrorist Attack Continue: New Letter Surfaces Christmas Eve on the Internet

 

     A letter to the Bush Administration from an alleged representative of al Qaida and the Islamic Jihad Brigade Black Death Squad makes reference to a document supposedly sent to the White House last week that contained a laundry list of requirements for the government.

 

     The document writer warned of deadly consequences if those demands were not met. Since the original letter was published, the Department of Homeland Security has ratcheted up the terror alert to orange, fearing that terrorists may be attempting to attack the United States using weapons of mass destruction.  

 

     The most recent warning reads in part (sic), "Don't ever think that your ‘orange alert' system will help you, although you know very well that even ‘severe is less than the situation you are in.' Nothing will help you but delivering our demands and as soon as possible. Your arrogance and childish acts of dictatorship are leading you directly to the cave of darkness. We have not seen a single step that reflects any logic thinking of any sort, nor clear and wise decisions, and no fast actions. You're fooling yourself and the American people, making them believe that you can defend them, when you know very well that you're totally helpless."

 

     In a portion of the letter addressed directly to President Bush, letter writer Daleel Almojahid (an alleged al Qaida operative) wrote in part, "Are you really still wondering if we have weapons of mass destruction? Why are you lying to your people, Bush? Tell them what you know, we bet you to tell them what you and the administration know. Tell them ... ‘we have been losing all the wars with al Qaida since they ever started.' Tell them that al Qaida is simply unbeatable! Tell them that they have won the war before it has even started! You are leading your nations into total destruction, and time is slipping away from under our hands."

 

    The alleged demands made in last week's letter from the same individual included a demand that the United States cease "invading" Islamic lands anywhere in the world and return all "stolen" Muslim money, "in gold not in any kind of money note."

 

    Other demands read (sic), "The returning of the old borders known to you and we press on the northern borders, the release of all our prisoners in your jails whom you know and we know only. The dismantle of the so called (United Nations and its council) in an international decision."

 

    Another portion of the letter read in part, "(sic), "We will give you a prior few minutes notice before our blessed attack so that you will be able to watch your destruction with your own satellite, as we would be by then have passed the skies of the seventh sky to heaven and your nation to the fires of hell."

 

    While the document, allegedly written by Almojahid, appeared to indicate some sort of nuclear attack, it did seem to mirror closely other terrorist information that is being broadly circulated.


 
Tom Ridge

 

    On Monday Dec. 21, U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge said after raising the national threat level from an elevated to high risk of terrorist attack (or from Code Yellow to Code Orange), "The U.S. Intelligence Community has received a substantial increase in the volume of threat related intelligence reports. These credible sources suggest the possibility of attacks against the homeland around the holiday season and beyond."
 
    Ridge added, "In addition to knowing that homeland security professionals at all levels are working to keep our communities safe, we ask individual Americans to do a few additional things during this time of heightened alert. I have said it before - and I am saying it again - homeland security begins at home. Never has that been more true. Your awareness and vigilance can help tremendously, so please use your common sense and report suspicious packages, vehicles, or activities to local law enforcement."

 

    Despite the elevated risk of terrorist attack, Ridge encouraged Americans to continue with their holiday plans. He said, "Gather with your family and friends and enjoy the spirit of this season. There is no doubt that we have a lot to be thankful for - not the least of which the opportunity to live in the greatest country in the world. It is a country that will not be bent by terror. It is a country that will not be broken by fear. But instead, we are a country blessed with a population marked by goodwill and great resolve. We will show the terrorists both this holiday season - goodwill toward our fellow men, readiness and resolve to protect our families and our freedom."
