The Threat Matrix

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!

Muslim group takes responsibility for 9-11: 'We are so sorry'

This September 11 marks the third unforgettable anniversary of the worst mass murder in American history.

After September 11, many in the Muslim world chose denial and hallucination rather than face up to the sad fact that Muslims perpetrated the 9-11 terrorist acts and that we have an enormous problem with extremism and support for terrorism. Many Muslims, including religious leaders, and "intellectuals" blamed 9-11 on a Jewish conspiracy and went as far as fabricating a tale that 4000 Jews did not show up for work in the World Trade Center on 9-11. Yet others blamed 9-11 on an American right wing conspiracy or the U.S. Government which allegedly wanted an excuse to invade Iraq and "steal" Iraqi oil.

[MamaDearest]

Thanks a zillion Godzilla! Iraq appears to be importing fighters for their cause from the nether-regions surrounding them. Obviously fighters with nothing to lose but their lives. Suggest we accommodate them.

"Terror of another type - in India baby girls are routinely murdered"

Does China do this also? So terribly heartbreaking. Sickening. No wonder there are so many typhoons in that region of the world.

This from Evan Kohlmann's site...

http://www.globalterroralert.com/index.htm

Globalterroralert.com (9/19/04):
Abu Hafs al-Urdani, the Jordanian successor to Ibn-ul Khattab and Abu al-Walid al-Ghamidi as top commander of the Al-Qaida-linked foreign mujahideen in Chechnya, has issued a new purported threat to Russia and the United States. According to the statement, "We will make Russia and America taste death, and Ramadan will be the month of conquests through [suicide] operations everywhere across this universe." Ramadan runs from Oct. 15 to Nov. 12, 2004.

Hi Donna,

Thanks for thinking of me. It was rather intense Friday night. Lots of warnings. A couple of friends suffered damage (tree fell on one friends house and another friend had a large oak fall on her car) but no one got hurt.

The twister that knocked the tree into the house was only 3 doors down from where I was.

That post 68 on SS hunting assassins didn't touch upon a key figure - Hillary! I am concerned she has her fingers in an October surprise.

[Domestic Church]

Maria Esperanza saw natural disasters hitting us. The hurricanes might be the first part of the lash of which she spoke.

[texasbluebell]

Yes, you're right, she herself said so, there would be an October surprise. She at least must be aware of something in the wind.

[Domestic Church]

Re Crispy frogs... my first thoughts actually were of the words of Our Lady of LaSalette:

"Paris will be destroyed by fire and Marseilles will be inundated by the sea,
other great cities will be destroyed by fire and razed to the ground. The just
will have to suffer much: their prayers, penitence, and tears will rise to
heaven; all the people of God will pray for pardon and sing misericords"

Obviously fighters with nothing to lose but their lives. Suggest we accommodate them.

I have no qualm about accomodating their desire to meet allah and the virgins (although with as many as we have killed, virgins may becomming scarse there).
