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.

Thanks for this and the above articles. For the life of me I can not figure this out. Except for the mental illness of political correctness there is no explanation that I can come up with. It sure raises by blood pressure.

Arab translators cheered Sept. 11 FBI Whistleblower: 'Questions of loyalty' tainted interpretation of al-Qaida chatter

WorldNetDaily:
WASHINGTON – In a shocking revelation, an FBI whistleblower claims some Arab-Americans translating Arabic intercepts for the FBI spoke approvingly of the terrorist attacks on America more than two years ago.



Former FBI translator Sibel D. Edmonds says translators of Middle Eastern origin working for the FBI's Washington field office maintain an "us"-versus-"them" attitude that's so strong it may be compromising al-Qaida investigations.

re your post no. 7594 you said in part, "Campuses are a hotbed of activity including recruitment and fundraising."

At least since the 1930's.

US, Europeans search for possible al-Qaeda bomber: official

excerpt:

Concerns about the man, who was travelling with a French passport, was one of the factors contributing to security jitters about transatlantic flights, ABC News quoted unnamed officials as saying.

A source in Paris close to the affair said the suspect was an Afghan national whose name -- Abdoulaye -- bore a phonetic resemblance to that of a man captured by US forces in Afghanistan but who managed to escape.

The US authorities noted the resemblance and informed their French counterparts.

The man's birthday and birthplace were not known, the source said.

French officials fear the suspect may have a small bomb whose components might get past airport security, the network said.

The man had a ticket for Air France's Flight 68 from Paris to Los Angeles on December 24 but the flight was cancelled and the passenger never showed up at the airport, it said.

Falcon is also the name of a flight simulator program. Here is a description and a link:

Falcon 4.0 is a Windows 95, multiplayer air combat simulation set in the Korean peninsula with a real-time war in progress in which you take the role of a single pilot in an F-16 jet fighter. Falcon 4.0's superb 3-D photorealistic, texture-mapped graphics and detailed models of F-16 avionics, weapons and threats will provide the most realistic combat flight simulation available. The ongoing simulation of a complex air/land/sea battle, called the Campaign Manager, will create all of the tension, chaos and adventure that exists in modern air combat, immersing you within the game like no other flight simulation has done before!
