I think it's because they moved the thread from the main forum to the Unexplained forum. You must be a member to access any forum other than the main forum. If you are not registered then that is most likely the problem.

Word is that no new registrations are being excepted. At least not for that Thread.

[Revel]

If you can get in...Would you have a look and see what is new?

Thank you.

I think it is too. Some sort of a key, anyway. Wish we could figure it out because I've noticed in their rants, when they say 'the hitting of' something, it means an attack. So, when they threaten us with "the hitting of the winds of the black death," I take it to mean an attack. But, what kind of attack? I know we've discussed this alot, but still haven't decided what it means.

'Winds of black death' we've speculated to mean something bio. Also speculated it to mean nukes.

They've used the term 'squads' with the "hitting of the winds of the black death" terminology?

OPINION: I think making the tape public for all to hear will answer some of the questions the general public has at this time regarding the phone call.

OR...

Listening to the tape will cause the general public to have even more questions.

We'll see.

Europe's Threat to the West

By Daniel Pipes
FrontPageMagazine.com | May 18, 2004

Whence comes the main danger to homeland security in North America and Western Europe?

With the single exception of the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995, notes Al-Qaeda authority Rohan Gunaratna, all major terrorist attacks of the past decade in the West have been carried out by immigrants. A closer look finds that these were not just any immigrants but invariably from a specific background: of the 212 suspected and convicted terrorist perpetrators during 1993-2003, 86 percent were Muslim immigrants and the remainder mainly converts to Islam.


“In Western countries jihad has grown mainly via Muslim immigration,” concludes Robert S. Leiken, a specialist on immigration and national security issues, in an important new monograph, Bearers of Global Jihad: Immigration and National Security after 9/11 (published by the Washington-based Nixon Center, where Leiken is employed). Leiken’s research offers valuable insights.

Violence acts against the West, he finds, “have been carried out largely through two methods of terrorist attack: the sleeper cell and the hit squad.”

"The hitting of the winds of the black death."

How I wish we knew what that means!

I've been looking into that aspect of this thread Letitring, and I thinkI have found a possible answer to that question.

In Islamic eschatology, the "Black Wind of Death" is a prophesized event, coupled with an earthquake, that is believed to be a precursor to the appearance of the Imam Mahdi.

Although I dont believe they are referring to a totally religious event, it helps me to understand what context they are talking about when I read it in their posts.

Ha Ha....I have to pack my husband for another trip tomorrow. I'm almost afraid to use a suitcase.

Maybe a giant sized Hefty bag!

"There are also rumors that the Internet is going to be shut down to stem the tide of news about the inbound. You know...keep the population under control. The alleged cover story for this is the potentially devestating news that a "hacker" has stolen the source code to Cisco's operating system. For those who don't know what I am talking about: Cisco is the largest supplier of networking gear in the country (probably the whole world).

Their gear powers most of the Internet backbone. If a malicious person could get their hands on the source code (programming) for Cisco's gear, they could exploit it cause HUGE disruptions to the internet. Check out the story here. What do you all think about these events?'

Would the government be included in those having this type of network? Or the military or the police etc.

Please let me know what you think, looking forward to your expertise since I know nothing about the internet and networking etc.

"Remember all the thefts of FBI vehicles, guns, papers, uniforms, jackets, etc? Remember all the airline employee uniform thefts from hotel rooms, dry cleaners, etc.? The thefts of uniforms, ID's, equipment from various PD's and first responders, all sound like they are leading up to something, somewhere. None of them have been recovered, as far as we've heard."

I was thinking of these stolen items today as well. Think of how many could attempt to steal identities, we all know they are great at forging documents. Airline uniforms, police, fire, EMT, UPS, cargo employees, harbor workers and who knows what else. There were even FBI things stolen out of a car just before the Superbowl and numerous other happenings that one just can't keep track of.

Yes, this is off topic, but not that far.

The Sgt. did his all for us, so we have to do our best.

If you don't know the "Cigar Marine", then take time to meet him here. His famous picture is down a way in the messages,.

Mount Weather is a real place; eighty-five acres located forty-five miles west of Washington and 1,725 feet above sea level, near the town of Bluemont, Virginia. In the event of all-out war, an elite of civilian and military leaders are to be taken to Mount Weather's cavernous underground shelter to become the nucleus of a postwar American society. The government has a secret list of those persons it plans to save.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) runs Mount Weather. When it has to talk about the place, which is rare, it calls it the "special facility." Its more common name comes from a weather station that the U.S. Department of Agriculture had maintained on the mountain.

Is it possible that the empty suitcases are reminders to us, that next time it may be a suitcase nuclear bomb.

We are searching for 40 of them.

Do we have 40 empty suitcases? (How many have they found?)

Do the 3 with body parts tell us that we are getting 3 with bombs next?

That is the only thought that comes and stays in my blank head today.

[WestCoastGal]
