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.


"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat."



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.

Re Independant TM: I would prefer to stay with FR, although I wouldn't mind if TM went from a thread to a forum. My loyalty to FR runs relatively long and deep. And because of my addiction to breaking news, I would have to keep two browsers open at all times, which is too much of a distraction.

I have been reading the first chapter of the 911 report...It just breaks your heart. It is making me angry that these misguided idiots claimed the live of thousands of innocent people. I hope we take each and every one of them out...

BTW, a mosque is being built by my church in Maryland. Dang!

Police Investigate Parachute Reports On DNC Eve

Officers Providing Few Details Of What May Have Been Drill

POSTED: 6:22 a.m. EDT July 26, 2004
UPDATED: 8:04 a.m. EDT July 26, 2004

BOSTON -- State police are still investigating reports that parachutists landed near the FleetCenter Sunday night, but there is little information about what may have been only a security drill.

  The FleetCenter is the site of the Democratic National Convention, which begins Monday night.

NewsCenter 5's Gail Huff reported that military police called in reports just after midnight that two parachutists had landed in the yard of the Charles River Park condominium complex. Additional reports indicated there were also parachutists on the top of the Tip O'Neill Federal Building located next door to the FleetCenter.

Before police helicopters arrived, officers on the ground covered the area, sending officers to the roofs of the buildings. SWAT teams went to the top of the federal building. All available state and local officers responded, some with K9 units. Nothing was found and state police said no one was arrested.

Sunday was a busy day for officers patroling the city, harbor and skies around the FleetCenter. On city roads, unscheduled stops were the norm for many truck drivers trying to get through the city's roads and tunnels. On the city's mass transit system, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority was also conducting random searches of commuters, who were advised to travel lightly.

During demonstrations on Beacon Hill Sunday, state police officers were wearing full riot gear, ready for combat. Armed, camouflage-wearing soldiers are patroling the old elevated railway near the FleetCenter in groups of threes, and bike-riding Boston police officers were blanketing the parks.

At work bright and early. I'll have to slither in and out of FR since my appointment book was full for this week as of last Thursday. Also, reluctantly preparing my husband and youngest daughter for a trip to Yellowstone. They leave Saturday and will be gone for a week. Real uncomfortable with travel, air travel, and Yellowstone; but, the trip was planned for the last year. Oh, well.

I just heard something on WABC radio about another manhole explosion, this time near Penn Plaza. Mulitiple explosions. Lots of fire. LEO has already decided that it is not terrorist related.
