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.

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.

OBL even went to the trouble of obtaining religious justifications for using wmd on innocent people in the US- and for killing Muslims in the process.

I also remember plodding through one of his fatwas where he also gave religious justification to using women & children in fighting his holy war.

I hope Michelle Malkin won't mind that I'm bringing over from her blog this very moving post she has there link:

EUGENE ARMSTRONG, R.I.P.
By Michelle Malkin   ·   September 21, 2004 10:14 AM

Moved by the barbaric murder/beheading of American contractor Eugene Armstrong in Iraq, a reader remembered this poem by American poet/novelist James Dickey about a friend who was a pilot beheaded by Japanese captors during World War II. Coincidentally, the surname of the subject of Dickey's poem was also "Armstrong."

The Performance by James Dickey

The last time I saw Donald Armstrong
He was staggering oddly off into the sun,
Going down, off the Philippine Islands.
I let my shovel fall, and put that hand
Above my eyes, and moved some way to one side
That his body might pass through the sun,

And I saw how well he was not
Standing there on his hands,
On his spindle-shanked forearms balanced,
Unbalanced, with his big feet looming and waving
In the great, untrustworthy air
He flew in each night, when it darkened.

Dust fanned in scraped puffs from the earth
Between his arms, and blood turned his face inside out,
To demonstrate it suppleness
of veins, as he perfected his role.
Next day, he toppled his head off
On an island beach to the south,

And the enemy's two-handed sword
Did not fall from anyone's hands
At that miraculous sight,
As the head rolled over upon
Its wide-eyed face, and fell
Into the inadequate grave

He had dug for himself, under pressure.
Yet I put my flat hand to my eyebrows
Months later, to see him again
In the sun, when I learned how he died,
And imagined him, there,
Come, judged, before his small captors,

Doing all his lean tricks to amaze them--
The back somersault, the kip-up--
And at last, the stand on his hands,
Perfect, with his feet together,
His head down, evenly breathing,
As the sun poured up from the sea

And the headsman broke down
In a blaze of tears, in that light
Of the thin, long human frame
Upside down in its own strange joy,
And, if some other one had not told him,
Would have cut off the feet

Instead of the head,
And if Armstrong had not presently risen
In kingly, round-shouldered attendance,
And then knelt down in himself
Beside his hacked, glittering grave, having done
All things in this life that he could.

Looks like our two bows are back in the picture - literally.
These two photos of bridges, one in NYC, and the Golden Gate in San Francisco, look like two bows to me. Just looked it up and an arched bridge can be termed a bow bridge. They also could be alluding to the two coasts.

Plus, remember those detailed maps and plans found earlier were of New York City, San Francisco and Rome.

So then the obvious questions are:

What is the most likely means of what terrorists could have smuggled in this country and the most likely form of dispersal available to them.

And what type of damage does a suitcase nuke do? Would you still get the same visuals?

Note Ian:
This should be foremost on the first page, for I've never read anything as reassuring as this, calming for the worse human emotion, panic.

JG thanks for posting this!

A very important link!

Funny how you always know my mindset M'Dear!
As I've been travelling to many different type links for me today, I thought of an analogy how people say you can tell alot by rummaging through a person's personal affects and "Garbage"...well, this is a great indicator also on folks sites and the links they are connected with. Funny because you can see, say one persona on one on one communication but when you delve into what they advertise whoa buddy, this is a horse of a different color. Watch for those promotions, the smallest thing on a site can be your biggest indicator right?

So if say 93% of folks who watch AlJaz feel that way what is one to think when they go to a website that has a link to Al Jaz?

~Opinions please?

"I have not seen people in our intelligence communities this nervous since 9/11," one official said,

Officials said they believe they "disrupted" at least one major plot by some recent arrests, but fear they may not have "derailed" this plot and possibly two others.

"We will need some luck and the grace of God to prevent this one," one official said, explaining that again they have no specifics as to the exact time and place or clear method. They have some intelligence suggesting a truck bomb or some type of bomb may be used.

U.S. officials said they are getting intelligence from a variety of sources, including some people who've been arrested but are now talking. The information will lead to some visible activity in the next 10 days to two weeks, such as a rounding up of individuals who may be tied to terrorism

*** Very telling remarks in this article ***

the traffic controllers for the military flights have been replaced by flight controllers from the Department of Homeland Security.

Oberlin flight control was told one or two weeks ago that the military flights were going to be manned by Homeland security personnel.

***Then are we to assume to me this was in the works or cause for concern Dave? ***

I don't think the caller had his facts straight.

Excerpt: Musharraf 'reasonably sure' bin Laden is alive
Iraq war brought 'more trouble to the world,' he says

NEW YORK (CNN) -- Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf said Friday that he has little doubt that Osama bin Laden is still alive but denied that his own security service is aiding al Qaeda.

Kerry and the rats won't be happy until they turn all of our allies against us with their traitorous comments. Hey, if our own Senators are out there speaking against the Iraq war, Musharaff figures he may as well jump on the band wagon.
