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.

"Looks like we might be facing a nuclear or bio attack folks...something we have never seen here before. "

I just read something about them planning a CHEMICAL attack in the LA area -- I think I read it before I first saw this thread, didn't post it, didn't want to be accused of "fear mongering" and now I don't remember where I have seen it.

Bin laden and his cohorts did this, NOT THE JEWS.

Aren't we sensitive?

In no way did I intimate that Jews were responsible for 9/11- only that they may have used the financial information available to them by virtue of their positions to beat a hasty retreat from their nominal places of business. Lighten up!

So who is the guy on the lower left?
Anyone know?

They have turned the color chart up before and nothing happened domestically.

I saw the thread this morning before it was deleted. I read it quickly, but my take on it was the "east side" of NYC

[aristeides]

East Side of Manhattan is the location of the United Nations. Bin Laden is known to hate the U.N.

okay, will try that way.

Has anyone noticed that this Thursday, November 6, 2003 will be 11 RamaDHaan 1424 (9/11/1424) according to the Islamic(Hijri) Calendar?

Check this out.

It's not going to be any great message or anything. Judging by two of the faces there, it is some Allah thing about jihad or great warriors.

Interesting web site, if click on students you will see groups, over 906 e-mails, many in English and very scary.

God I hate saying this...but..that is one building that I could care less if they took out. We could use the real estate.

We don't have oil here...............

therefore these are secondary targets from our defense point of view.

[MarMema]

FYI, heads up!

[mewzilla]

We heard from people we know down in KY that all the Saudis living around Lexington bugged out the day before 9-11. Left the country. Maybe our best bet would be to watch some key folks to see what they do. If they bug, we go to Elmo.

Good find.

Here is something from the hagmannpi website:

Found: Indication of Chemical Weapon Shipment "For Ramadan"

25 October 2003-- The above was found by Northeast Intelligence Network analyst Jill St. Claire "posted" on a private jihad forum - it was posted on 24 October 2003 at 03:14 GMT. A rough translation of this particular post indicates that a shipment of a chemical weapon was made for the "holy month of Ramadan," with hopes by the poster that the operative does not become injured while handling the WMD. This has been submitted to federal authorities, along with all pertinent information about the poster, the forum, and the origin of the post. Currently, analysts are unable to determine if the shipment is within the United States or elsewhere.
