Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat

"The identity-theft aspect of the story is also intriguing. I wonder when/how the theft occurred. Was it true identity theft or could the woman in jail have volunteered her help, knowing she would not need her id while incarcerated?"

I don't know that it was truly identity theft. I mean, I have nothing to back that up. It was just part of the story that jumped out me. Some of the reports come across as though authorities are saying look, this is a hoax...one of the people we're looking for we shouldn't even be looking for because she's in prison. On the other hand, if you think about it, even if the guy called it in because he was angry about getting stiffed, he still gave someone that identity to a person who has since vanished, leaving belongings which include a return ticket to Bejing behind.

Leaving the ticket behind and the fact that the date on which the ticket was supposed to be used was New Year's Eve suggests that the ticket was never intended to be used. Another poster just pointed out that if you wanted to keep a low profile, you'd buy a round-trip ticket because it's more inconspicuous than purchasing a one-way ticket and then, as done in this case, ditch it.

Yep...it really seems like they have the best interests of the people of Oregon and the U.S. in mind with statements like that! I hope that all the citizens in that area of Oregon are well armed, and well informed about their "jihadists" neighbors.

Do you remember this story?

Sorry about the mess, I will not copy from the "My comments" again.

But then there are some good posts/pings there.

I read all the way through and couldn't understand why someone was following me around.......LOL

Should the post be pulled?

Still unanswered is what someone will do with 74, or 144, two-way radios that have a fairly limited range and only operate on a narrow band of frequencies

Unless they want to use them to listen in on school bus radio traffic so they can locate the busses for a hit.

I would have thought it would not be possible, until Beslan.

Yes...and that article has even more detailed info. regarding the Oregon intelopers than I had read before.

Also, on previous TM threads MamaDearest and I had posted exchanges regarding a restaurent poisoning incident in Oregon that happened back in the 80's or early 90's; that was traced back to some sheik who was buying land and setting-up a compound in Oregon. I read about the incident in a book last year about the U.S. and our vulnerability to bio-terror...I can't recall the title right now.

The Feds know where they are.

Now, if we could find the messages they are sending, then the
Feds might be able to move.

If I was in law enforcement, I would have to get out.

They arrest and a judge sets them free.

The democrats, march in the streets supporting the terrorists.

So maybe it is better to watch them and see what is going on, than to waste all that time going to court.

Would love to know how many are setting in jails, that we don't know about.........maybe with EOM and Daleel.

"Back to those microbiologists....this CANNOT be coincidental. Were any legitimate suicides?
Who wants them out of the way?"

I got this from a website. I'm not sure the site is allowed to be listed here but if you google "dead scientists," you pretty much get the same info from everywhere, this just had all the info in a nice, neat little package...

Chronology of Dead Scientists

2001

#1-5: Five Unnamed Microbiologists. Died: October 4, 2001 Four of Five unnamed microbiologists on a plane that was brought down by a missile near the Black sea on the Russian border. Traveling from Israel to Russia; business not disclosed. Three scientists were experts in medical research or public health. The plane is believed by many in Israel to have had as many as four or five passengers who were microbiologists. Both Israel and Novosibirsk are homes for cutting-edge microbiological research. Novosibirsk is known as the scientific capital of Siberia. There are over 50 research facilities there, and 13 full universities for a population of only 2.5 million people.

#6: Dr. Benito Que, Age: 52. Found Comatose: November 12, 2001. Died later in hospital. Found in the street near the laboratory where he worked at the University of Miami Medical School. He was a cell biologist, involved in research on aids, oncology research in the hematology department.

#7-#9: Avishai Berkman, Amiramp Eldor and Yaacov Matzner Died: November 24, 2001 Another airplane crash kills 3 scientists. At about the time of the Black Sea crash, Israeli journalists had been sounding the alarm that two Israeli microbiologists had been murdered, allegedly by terrorists; including the head of the Hematology department at Israel's Ichilov Hospital, as well as directors of the Tel Aviv Public Health Department and Hebrew University School of Medicine. Five microbiologists in this list of the first eight people that died mysteriously in airplane crashes worked on cutting edge microbiology research. Four of the five were doing virtually identical research - research that has global political and financial significance.

#10: Dr. David Schwartz, Age: 57. Died: December 10, 2001. Murdered by stabbing in rural home Loudon County, Virginia. He was extremely well respected in biophysics, and regarded as an authority on DNA sequencing. Three teens who were into the occult were charged with murder in the slashing death.

#11: Dr. Set Van Nguyen, Died: December 14, 2001. Found dead in the airlock entrance to the walk-in refrigerator in the laboratory he worked at in Victoria State, Australia. The room was full of deadly gas which had leaked from a liquid nitrogen cooling system. Room was vented. Working on a vaccine to protect against biological weapons, or a weapon itself. In January, 2001, the magazine Nature published information that two scientists, Dr. Ron Jackson and Dr. Ian Ramshaw, using genetic manipulation and DNA sequencing, had created an incredibly virulent form of mousepox, a cousin of smallpox and Dr. Nguyen had worked for 15 years at the same Australian facility.

#12: Dr. Don Wiley Age: 57, Vanished December 16, 2001. Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Harvard University, top Deadly Contagious Virus expert, vanished; abandoned rental car was found on the Hernando de Soto Bridge outside Memphis, TN. He was heavily involved in research on DNA sequencing, and was last seen at around midnight on November 16, leaving the St. Jude's Children's Research Advisory Dinner at The Peabody Hotel in Memphis, TN. Associates attending the dinner said he showed no signs of intoxication, and no one has admitted to drinking with him.

#13: Dr. Vladimer Pasechnik Age: 64, Found Dead: December 23, 2001. Found dead in Wiltshire, England, a village near his home. He had defected from Russia to UK. He had been the #1 scientist in the FSU's bioweapons program. It was thought he was involved with exhuming the bodies of the 10 London victims of the 1919 Type A flu epidemic. Pasechnik died six weeks after the planned exhumations were announced. On November 23, 2001, Pasechnik's death was reported in the New York Times as having occurred two days earlier. Pasechnik's death was made in the United States by Dr. Christopher Davis of Virginia, who stated that the cause of death was a stroke. Dr. Davis was the member of British intelligence who de-briefed Dr. Pasechnik at the time of his defection. Pasechnik was heavily involved in DNA sequencing research. He had just founded a company like three other microbiologists working to provide powerful alternatives to antibiotics. Dr. Vladimir Pasechnik was the boss of William C. Patrick III who holds five patents on the militarized anthrax used by the United States. Patrick is now a private biowarfare consultant to the military and CIA. Patrick developed the process by which anthrax spores could be concentrated at the level of one trillion spores per gram. No other country has been able to get concentrations above 500 billion per gram. The anthrax that was sent around the eastern United States last fall was concentrated at one trillion spores per gram.

IPN is reporting the cause of the crash as a vehcile that was parked on the tracks.

crosspost: Heads up on this one....

KABC TV showed Glendale Fire Chief - he said 4 confirmed dead then another one said 4 confirmed but that's just for now.

Over a hundred were transported to hospitals, hundred still at scene, they are still looking in the trains.

Both side of tracks involved.

As one train was derailing after striking stalled Jeep, the other train caught the tail of the derailing train. Vehicle was in between railroad gates. It's looking as if the vehicle was deliberately parked on the track.

Eight Children, Driver Injured in School Bus Crash in Florida (1/26/05)

The Associated Press Published: Jan 26, 2005 BROOKSVILLE, Fla. (AP) - An elementary school bus overturned Wednesday morning north of Tampa, injuring eight children and the driver.

One child was taken by helicopter to a Tampa hospital, but none of the injuries were believed to be life-threatening, Florida Highway Patrol spokesman Larry Coggins said.

The other seven injured children and the driver were taken by ambulance to local hospitals.

The bus with 24 students left the road and overturned at about 8:20 a.m., Coggins said. It was unclear why the bus left the road, Coggins said. The investigation was continuing.

Now I get how it was a hoax. I originally thought that the individuals that had given the immigrants id's called in the tip in because they were stiffed but according to this article, it was one of the smugglers that had gotten into an argument and called it in for revenge.

(I'm awfully exhausted and slow these days but this place is addicting and hard to stay away from and quiet on).

Wow Teri...very comprehensive list!

Thank you for posting the list of dead scientists.

Several on it that I did not know of.

The World Health Organization has objected to the digging up of the 1919 flu bodies, but they have dug up more of them recently.

WHO even begged that it not be tested, or if it was, that it would be in special labs, not the normal ones that might
allow it to escape.

Thanks!

Vehicle was in between railroad gates. It's looking as if the vehicle was deliberately parked on the track.

IF terror-related, they've gone very low tech, but effective. Will have to wait and follow the investigation.

Bump........thanks

To: Conservative Infidel Sheriff was onboard both on the way to work and as security. 23 year veteran. Private vehicle on track caused derailment. Hinting possible deliberate act to park on the tracks knowing trains coming. Driver is alive. All talking at once. Lost feed...
