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.

Cal, what's your assessment of EOM's threats?

[Revel]

I have also read here that there is no way that they could evacuate long island in anything even resembling a quick way.

Also, LILCO's Shoreham Nuclear Power Station

A search of the IP shows Indonesia. Gulp.

[ladyjane]

LILCO started building a nuke plant in Shoreham but never finished it. The problem with Long Island is there is no way to evacuate it. If NYC had an 'event' and the wind was blowing east there is no way out.

[freeperfromnj]

I find it curious that he's talking about the NY side and the NJ side of the tunnel - then talks about swimming the river. Lincoln tunnel would fit that description. The tunnels were a previous target of the blind sheik.

[Calpernia]

I keep remembering that frogman picture too.

I'll be back. Dinner is ready.

[crabbie]

If he is talking about both sides of the tunnel, why should we assume that the target is Long Island? Doesn't Manhatten make more sense?

[freeperfromnj]

Same here. I'm running up and down the stairs -- from the computer to the stove. (it's not like I'm not obsessed or anything)

[oceanview]

millstone is in Connecticut. Shoreham never opened.

this is getting nuts, I think he is reading this thread, I've posted that I am on long island, maybe that's why he's nuking that now! who the hell would want to nuke long island?

[Revel]

Well I suppose that if they hit Manhatten then the people in Long Island would also be "Glowing" as he puts it. Lets just hope that this person is all hot air.

[Revel]

Depends on what the meaning of "Glowing" is.

[oceanview]

on a purely technical point, I think you are overestimating the effect of the fireball and fallout.

[Revel]

How far are you from NYC ?

[Domestic Church]

" This sure feels like a huge, geopolitical chess game being played for world domination - and AQ is the pawn/proxy."

And being played in more dimensions.

[CathyRyan]

It does make you wonder if somewhere in the world there is someone taking a snow day from school....

[Oorang]

That is quite a task you are taking on. Thank you for your effort.

Cafe bombing in Indonesia, Atleast 4 dead

JAKARTA (Reuters) - A bomb blast killed four people late on Saturday at a cafe on Indonesia's Sulawesi island and wounded at least three others, police and hospital sources said.

It was not immediately clear who was responsible for the attack, the latest in a number of bombings to hit Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim nation, in recent years.

In October 2002, bombs on Indonesia's premier tourist island of Bali killed 202 people, mostly foreign visitors, in what was the deadliest such incident since the September 11 attacks on the United States.

Saturday's bomb went off at a karaoke cafe at around 11 p.m. (1500 GMT) in South Sulawesi province's Palopo area, police said.

Asked whether a bomb had exploded, a police official in Palopo, who declined to be named, told Reuters by phone early on Sunday: "Yes, that's true."

He said the blast site was on the road to South Sulawesi's capital Makassar, which lies 1,400 km east of Jakarta.

So, EOM, you the great network administrator likes to play pranks on uninformed computer users. Well, riddle me this, my moon worshiping buddy.

If you're so good, track me down and infiltrate my puter, let's see how good you are. I'll be waiting.
