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.

With the nation on high alert for al-Qaida terrorists, the Department of Homeland Security is putting its border officers through "etiquette" classes to soften their image and make them less threatening to arriving foreign immigrants, WorldNetDaily has learned.

enemy who wishes to do us harm.

Al Qaeda Receiving S. African Passports for $77.00 plus Identity Paperwork from Crime Syndicates

"They sell mostly to economic migrants, who find it easier to enter Europe or the United States on a South African passport than ones from their own countries. But terrorists now appear to be tapping into these networks..."

The terrorists are so insidious. Thanks for the link.

OPINION: Yep.
The webmaster fine tuned the propaganda machine and let the **it fly.

The problem with these kind of sites; is that they MAY take small kernels of truth, twist and/or exaggerate the facts; and present it as the whole story. In other words, they are no better than the lame-stream media. Spinning "news" is not news at all --- it's propaganda.

Not surprised I'm thinking Keebler Elves drew it ;)

Certainly they were not artistically endowed (and probably not otherwise either). Most grade school children could have done a better job of drawing those "bows" than their "artist" did. It is omminous, however that we have multiple buildings/dams/mosques that could qualify as the model for the drawing.

Yemeni student at Purdue for program is missing

Police are searching for an 18-year-old Middle Eastern student reported missing from a five-week Purdue University summer program.

The Yemeni student, Anwar Saleh Ahmed Al-Awdi, was last seen on the West Lafayette campus at 9 p.m. Friday. He was leaving with a family acquaintance and another person.(snip)

While at Purdue, students have taken classes on government, economics and culture. They also have visited government offices, attended concerts and met athletes and religious leaders. The students are to visit Chicago and Washington, D.C., before leaving the United States on Aug. 22.(snip)

He left campus with Mausuar Yousef Yahya, a friend of the family from Detroit, and another man identified only as Yaha. They were to go to an address in Hamtramck, Mich., but police were not able to reach anyone at that location in the Detroit suburb.

Why are we letting any middle eastern males between the ages of 18-35 in this country?

Is our "government" stupid or what?

* "The message likely will be the signal for the attack to be launched," one official said.

All indicators were the attack would occur before the elections, and the clock is ticking away -- not much time left if indeed that information is true. It's been too quiet for too long. The bigger questions are where, when, and what? the who and why won't be known until they are caught or kill themselves. Please use caution everyone and be safe as you can wherever you are! If ever there was a time for concern for your personal safety, this is it!

It is just that FR always attracts powerful male and female posters. Over the past 6 years, I have found that some posters who I assumed were male were in reality female and vice versa. I suspected both Godzilla and JellyJam were male, but was not absolutely sure. I thought Davey Crockett was male until fairly recently! ;)
