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.

The problem you ascribe to RELIGION is slated for 'solution.'

The World Government will insist on one religion and those not complying will be terminated.

Then the world leader will insist on being worshipped as God and all who fail to comply will be terminated.

Thankfully, authentic Christians believe in RELATIONSHIP with The Living God and are leaving dead religion--in thousands of Christian churches (as full of religion as other houses of worship) by the thousands.

Christ was rather most hostile toward traditional RELIGION.

Anyway . . . one can find religious irrationality in atheism, agnosticism, humanism, socialism, Shrillary-ism etc.

To borrow a phrase . . .

RELIGION DOESN'T KILL PEOPLE,

RELIGIOUS, IRRATIONALLY FANATIC PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE.

We certainly know that Franks would be right if Shrillery were in power.

I think Bush will do what he can to avoid martial law as long as he can. And, if declared, will still do what he can to preserve as much of the Bill of Rights as he can.

IMHO.

This thread is one indication of how succesful the war on terror has been.

We cannot threaten the Islamo Facists with harm (ie Mecca and Medina) as long as we have a president that has Saudi Nationals over for dinner at his private home.

vote conservative in '04.

Pat Robertson is right.

Paul Harvey is accurate.

The foundational text of the religion supposedly says what it means.

Facts are facts.

All of us have to deal with them . . . eventually.

This used to be such an interesting, informative thread, before people started to use it to bash Bush.

By "Vote conservative in '04" I take it, from your comment, that you are recommending voting against Bush, therefore electing Dean.

That will really help our fight against terrorism.
(/sarcasm)

I am sure Daleel and other jihadists are extremely pleased with you. (this is NOT a joke)

Well, I read that NY City is on "orange plus" alert -- that sounds to me as RED Alert, they just don't want to use those words.

Please post any new info you find out.

NYC Seeing 'Orange Plus'
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,106475,00.html

WASHINGTON — The NYPD (search) is beefing up anti-terror efforts at concert halls, sports arenas, theaters and other places where large crowds gather as the city turns a deeper shade of orange than the rest of the nation, law-enforcement sources say.



And my guess is, that so is Los Angeles.

In my heart of hearts I feel the 'imminent' danger is passed but do not misunderstand, I will not feel safe until the first week of February. I just know our Protector's have done some amazing work in the past 24 hours

I believe whatever it may have been the stories we here about what they are doing is reassuring and we know we may never hear most of what they have caught (not that I want to hear near misses) I think you can breathe easier after vacation -g-

is making extra preparations for the new threats.

This makes sense and I think New Yorker's can feel more safe because of the stepped up extras they are doing.

I just walked in from church and the Fox New announcer says there is a news conference scheduled for 1:30 pm ET where Tom Ridge is expected to raise the terror alert. Anyone have any details? 2,567 posted on 12/21/2003 11:33:27 AM CST by StillProud2BeFree

This was the first post when the terror level was raised. StillProud got it! It took us two months to get that far - 2,567 posts Since Sunday the 21st we have had 1047 posts!!! I want to thank the above Freepers I pinged for keeping it alive for two months and I am so glad we have so many Freeper's who have since joined this thread and contributing so much. Once again I want to say I am so proud to be a Freeper and knowing some how we have made a difference in helping to protect our country I know we are all willing to sacrifice and even die for. Bump to Free Republic and it's Patriot's!!!

Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks that those who stand the night watch on our behalf, do so for love of country and family and friends. Be a shield for them, I pray, like unto the shield they are for us. Bless the work of their hands ... let no harm come near them, for we seek their safety. Draw all nations to be like-minded in defense of homeland ... shower us with wisdom and discernment that we may prevent the shedding of innocent blood.

Thank You, Creator God, that we can sleep this night because others do not. Speak words of comfort and assurance to those away from their beloved families ... swiftly sweep away the danger, that our men and women may soon come home ... vanquish the enemy, Father, I pray.

Wherever we are, dear Lord, may we bow before the Christ Child, to thank You for Your unspeakable gift. So great is Your love for us, that You gave us Your only begotten Son, that if we believe in Him, we shall not perish, but have everlasting life. Soon, Lord, may there be peace on earth, good will to all men. In the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...

FYI... Saw this over at the NIN website.

Investigative Note: There is an unusual number of personnel present at the Pentagon as of 1730 EST 24 December 2003, according to a Washington source. This source stated that the number of personnel on duty is unusual, even for the heightened alert. "I was on-site every time they raised (and lowered) the alert level, and I have not seen it like this before."

The "FIT would really have to hit the SHAN" to see the kinds of things that Franks mentioned in the interview.

Yes, I am a Larry Elder fan.
