After trying to catch-up on hundreds of threads....just from last evening...I will be signing-off for the long week-end. I pray that everyone is prepared for anything. Have an enjoyable week-end with family and friends. Remember those in our military, past and present who help to keep us free and safe. May God look after them, and everyone here who are keeping the Threat Matrix moving forward.
I will be keeping a keen eye on the occurances along my area of the coastline here in the Northeast. One occurance last week-end that happened and I am just posting, because I thought it may be a little too sensitive. There was increased Coast Guard activity. But the most interesting was a very large red helicopter (similar to one that was mentioned 2,000 posts ago in Arizona). This large red helicopter was flying very low (20 ft.) over the sand dunes on the beach. Anyway now at the end of this week, it has been reported that the Army corps of engineers is looking for WWII ordinance in that area where the helicopter was flying. Not out of the question, since there were outposts in that area during WWII. But, I hope that that is really what they are looking to find.
JustPiper, you posted info. regarding the three children in Baltimore who were beheaded. I pray that they find out who did this horrible crime. In the news it mentioned that an officer who was on the job for 35 years had to leave the scene, because it was too horrible. I have a hypothesis that if this was a random crime, it could possibly be related to terrorism. In the edicts from Osama and his followers, kidnapping and murder are among the things that they encourage among their followers. The gruesomeness of this seems outside the realm of most crimes...almost to link it to what the Islamics did to Nick Berg. I know that it is a streatch of imagination, but I want to make sure that if there are dots to be connected we are aware of odd occurances.
I believe like someone earlier posted on this thread; that there could be a link to terrorism with the recent missing college students. If you do a search on Google for "missing" under the news link on Google. There is a number of missing people and students in the recent months. Many have not been widely reported. The Juliard student in NY and the way she was found, tulip petals, etc....if it isn't a serial killer....it may be from someone connected to terrorism that is trying to send a message. These hypothesis are just from gut and intuitive feelings that I get when I find and hear these stories.
I look forward to trying to catch-up on 1,000+ posts on Tuesday.
I agree and also thought the worst. You have a safe weekend and enjoy. Hopefully all will be calm in the homeland. Planning to take a terror break myself (this thread is so addicting that I don't know if I can make it throught the weekend without checking in).
We generally think of "terrorism" as acts against cities or countrys. I have to stand back and rethink this. Decapitation of three children! This is terrorism in its rawest form. Terrorism against individuals. . .children no doubt. Our American children! The thought that this might be a new wave against us. . .sorry for the rant. . .
Have a safe and peaceful weekend.
Take care, have a safe and wonderful weekend.
You have a safe weekend all4-1 and I pray TM is unactive for that means we are safe
I also thought it an odd thing for such a crime on those poor babies and prayers for those angels
They found the Julliard student?
You are correct there are two many missing and my daughter and I were discussing this
