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

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.

Does that mean OBL is martyring himself today? I will have a glass of Freedom Sparkle to toast that!

The map is of Saudi Arabia.
Note that the first letter (the alif) in Arabic word for "the battle" has been stylized into an Arabian sword.

Here's a translation of the wording.

Watch (witness) the battles (confrontations) in the Arabian Island

End translation. Hope this helps

Anything on the "Specific Threat Information" posted on the Northeast Intelligence Network site? I assume someone is busy preparing it for print.

True. FWIW, SEA-TAC's inbound/outbound traffic patterns have been altered significantly the last few days.

Hmm, yes, the coastal part on the left looks like the one you linked to, but doesn't it look like some small body of water on the left in #4703?

I'll have to try to find my globe, it's stored away somewhere.

Aha. Very interesting. I should try to learn a bit of that language. That would help.

Thanks, much appreciated!

I just went to the site, seems to be working fine, but yeah, there is a bunch of writing in Arabic underneath the newly posted photos of Police and Security I assume it will be translated (unless that writing was there before, can't remember)
