The title refers to a daily report given to the president of the United States detailing the most serious terrorist threats against the country. To tackle those threats, the government has formed a top-notch task force to infiltrate the terror cells and cut off the danger.

"Every morning, the president receives a list of the top ten terrorist threats - this list is known as the threat matrix."

We here at FR are trying to be in conjunction with the daily reports around the world that involve threats. We try to provide a storehouse of information that takes hours of research.

YOU be the Judge and get informed.

Group linked to al Qaeda warns of 'columns of car bombs'

Australia and Italy have received warnings through a statement purportedly from militants linked to al Qaeda that demanded those countries withdraw troops from Iraq.

We are the "Stotters" who make ourselves aware of the enemy who wishes to do us harm.

Interesting article. I'm printing it, now.

Thanks for the update.

[freeperfromnj]

I'm looking at that picture and can't believe it's the U.S.A. - it's surreal.

[drymans wife]

Both

Yes, I was trying to be funny, and I'm glad I could make you laugh. That's just the first thing that popped in my head when I read your post. LOL!

Iraqi arrested at Twin Cities airport indicted (Ali Mohammed Abboud Almosaleh Update)

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1181171/posts

An Iraqi man arrested this month at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport for immigration law violations was charged Wednesday with lying to authorities about his travels outside the United States and about anti-American material he was carrying.

-snip-
He told officers that his digital video discs with images of militant Iraqi Iman Muqtada Al-Sadr and his militia, accompanied by calls for resistance against the United States, were "just music," the documents said. Almosaleh also had video images of Saddam Hussein and the invasion of Iraq. A law enforcement official has said Almosaleh was carrying a note that hinted at public suicide.

Iocaine (sp) powder! The Princess Bride is one of my favorite movies!

You only think I guessed wrong - that's what's so funny. I switched glasses when your back was turned. Ha-ha, you fool. You fell victim to one of the classic blunders, the most famous of which is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia", but only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian, when *death* is on the line.". Hahahahahah. [Vizzini falls over dead]

[drymans wife]

Thanks Cindy for keeping us up to date.

[all4one]

Thank you LilyBean for that kind post.

I want to make clear that I am not concerned about Canadians crossing over the borders......but AQ who could easily enter Canada and cross the U.S. northern borders.

"Also, remember that a large number of state national guard units are deployed elsewhere."(ExSoldier)

That is another good point to remember in the attack scenario we are talking about. Thanks.

[HipShot]

It must be interesting if it's going to hardcopy. :)

[ExSoldier]

"Maybe the target is symbolic/historical?"

I don't think so. Too subtle, meaning there's not enough of a body count and I think that the Jihadi's don't even know their own history let alone ours in such detail. Freepers notwithstanding, most people in this country barely know left from right. Look at Boston.

[Labyrinthos]

I gather there has been no threat identified and the rhetoric has been: Nothing to see here, move along....

Then it must have been something series. Is your local rag a Gannet Paper? I keep my subscription if only to have something to start the wood stove.

[appalachian_dweller]

Thanks Cindy. We had a worm get in here a few days ago. Other and annoying a few folks, no damage.

I hate Windows OS. Too many attacks. Too many security holes. Glad I'm not the one who has to fix them. My job is to make sure we can put Humpty Dumpty back together if he gets blowed up real good.

And the folks I work with know if this building gets it I'll either be dead (because I was in the building) or very heavily armed in the mountains and unreachable.

[Mrs. Xtrmst]

Truly your intellect is staggering! ;)

Love that movie.

Does anyone know the nature of the incident in Wisconsin?

Here's a poem from Admiral Jeremiah Denton, (who spent more than 7 1/2 years being tortured as a POW in Vietnam), one of the great americans of our day :

(quote)
As a final offering, I give you a poem that Admiral Denton read to us this week, through eyes clouded with tears:

It is the soldier, not the reporter,
Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer,
Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier,
Who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protester to burn the flag.

Amen. God bless America.
(End quote)

Thank you for printing the poem...I think I'll put it on my profile page, if you don't mind...
