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.

Smoky Transformer Fire Closes 34th Street

POSTED: 10:04 am EDT July 26, 2004
UPDATED: 10:13 am EDT July 26, 2004

NEW YORK -- A transformer has caught on fire on 34th Street and traffic on that street has been halted between 7th and 8th Avenues.

The fire is creating a heavy smoke condition and firefighters are on the scene.

The fire is just a few blocks form Madison Square Garden, the site of next month's Republican National Convention.

There is no word on the cause of the fire.

A construction worker reported at 9:06 a.m. in the 400 block of S. Elizabeth that three manhole grates, valued at $1,050, and three beehive covers, valued at $1,050, were stolen. He said he had seen similar objects in the back of a pickup truck in the area and had obtained the license number.

Here is some filler news (Arab Propaganda?) for the time being:

‘Israel behind Kennedy's assassination’

Press Trust of India
Posted online: Monday, July 26, 2004 at 1942 hours IST

Jerusalem, July 26: In a startling accusation, Israeli nuclear whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu has said that Jerusalem was behind the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy, who was exerting pressure on the then Jewish head of the state to shed light on the Dimona nuclear plant.

In defiance of a ban on talking to media and meeting with foreigners, Vanunu is said to have made the accusation in an interview to London-based al-Hayat newspaper.

As per the interview published in newspaper's Arabic supplement al-Wassat on Sunday, Vanunu said according to "near-certain indications", Kennedy was assassinated due to "pressure he exerted on then head of government, David ben-Gurion, to shed light on Dimona's nuclear reactor".

"We do not know which irresponsible Israeli Prime Minister will take office and decide to use nuclear weapons in the struggle against neighbouring Arab countries," he is quoted to have said, adding "what has already been exposed about the weapons Israel is holding can destroy the region and kill millions."

you may be losing potential contributors of valuable information with all the Freepers, (possible approx 100,000)

You oreolady, have made the best point of all! Plus many of us have been at FR so long. We know we have a lot of lurkers here that do not post, I think about that all the time. And I have seen so many sites not do as well once they went independent. The only consensus is the worry of losing all our info per thread. We are not afraid of the interlopers, trolls etc. yes they are a challenge, but I think each one makes us tougher, but we also have lost some good folks who have not become inure to it all. I've been told repeatedly to hang in there and I would hope all TM'rs would. Thanks for your post!

I think we've heard this EOM rant before..

All US cities remain intact.

Now, I don't doubt AQ has the capability. I just don't think THIS particular varmint is a legit "messenger" of the true AQ.

I agree with you that this is a lot of hot air, however, I think we all need to take away from this one very critical fact:

The terrorist "street" wants very much to use nuclear weaponry against the United States. The capability may not match the sentiment TODAY, but at some point, it is highly likely it will. So although EOM's post are 99.99% bunk, the most salient point here is that the level of hatred and desire to inflict mass casualties on the U.S. is very real. If they do not have nuclear weapons, it is very much their goal, and they are probably working very hard to seal the deal. The 9-11 commission was correct in pointing out that this is a race against time. Al Qaeda is racing to get 'em, we're racing to close as many windows of opportunities as possible.

The last thing we should do is become jaded by all the empty threats. In many ways, this is exactly the purpose of deluging Americans with unrealized prophecies of destruction. At some point, we stop listening. We become lax. We become vulnerable to the very thing we fear the most because the enemy has convinced us they are not serious.

But they are. They are very serious, and the United States needs to do all she (we) can to keep the heat on. The genie is truly out of the bottle, and unless we can empty the swamps in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria, the Sudan, Nigeria, Kenya, Zaire, Somalia, and Yemen (to name a few), we stand a very realistic chance of some group of ne'er-do-wells slipping through the nets and in the very least attempting (if not succeeding) to do grave harm to our country.

I just think staying here is a good choice, but having the ability to ban individual users or banish them to only post in a "Time Out Bench" area.

Does our current thread program not allow that? I am not sure I understand how this TM off of Freepers works. Is it something that we can move to a new platform program at this same site? Or are there too many other things dependent on this threadding system?
