BOSTON (Reuters) - The FBI is seeking to question four Chinese nationals amid unconfirmed reports that they are headed to Boston as part of a possible "dirty bomb" plot, authorities said on Wednesday.The Federal Bureau of Investigation and U.S. prosecutors in Boston released photographs of four Chinese nationals identified as Zengrong Lin, Wen Quin Zheng, Xiujin Chen and Guozhi Lin, and said the four individuals were being sought in connection with an unspecified, uncorroborated threat.
"Information was received by federal law enforcement in Boston today originating from an unknown and uncorroborated source regarding an unspecified potential threat," federal prosecutors and the FBI said in a joint statement....
Why the saudis nationals hit us last time. We didn't go for Saudi Arabia, did we? But that said. China is our enemy.
DUBAI (AFP) - The Islamic Army in Iraq, one of the main armed groups fighting US forces in the war-torn country, has threatened to carry out attacks inside the United States, according to a statement posted on a website.
This year "will bring woes on America. The mujahedeen (holy warriors) have prepared big surprises for your sons outside America and a big surprise for you inside America," said the statement whose authenticity could not be confirmed.
The statement appeared to mark a disturbing shift in strategy by the shadowy Sunni Muslim group which has claimed a number of attacks and killings of hostages in Iraq, including an Italian journalist and two Pakistanis.
But last month it freed two French journalists held hostage for four months.
The mujahedeen "will take the battle from inside our country (Iraq) to yours," the statement said.
"We address you after you finished celebrating the new year, hoping that you are no longer drunk ... We will give American civilians a taste of what civilians in our country go through," said the statement, presented as a "message to the American people."
The message, which described the American people as "uncivilized" and "ignorant," claimed that "the whole world" hates America.
"Are you aware that the number of those who support striking America on its own turf has greatly increased?" it said.
"Last year was a picnic for your soldiers (in Iraq). The year 2005 will witness a quantitative and qualitative change in the operations against your army, which will go down in history," the statement said.
The Islamic Army was one of three radical Islamist groups, along with the Al-Qaeda linked Ansar Al-Sunna and the previously unknown Army of the Mujahedeen, which warned in an Internet statement last week they would strike at anyone taking part in the January 30 elections in Iraq.
"Those who participate in this dirty farce will not be sheltered from the blows of the mujahedeen," said the statement.
Sounds like a great place to be!

Boston is where "America" truly Began.
The "Terrorists" are attempting to Harm the "Cradle of Western Civilization!"
"America" Didn't Begin in New York, or Washington; "America" began in "BOSTON!!"
The "Terrorists KNOW THAT FACT," & they are "Hell-Bent" to DESTROY the Peaceful Status of Those who Dwell in "Boston!""
"Long Since Forgotten," is the FACT THAT the "Citizens of Boston" ROSE to DECLARE & FIGHT FOR THEIR INDEPENDENCE!!"
The "WAHABBI, ISLAMIST "JIHARDIST PSYCHOPATHS" have-LONG SINCE- Forgotten the "People of Boston:"
THOSE WHO Created & Defend "America" are FAR MORE intelligent & resourceful than Those who would Enslave Us!
UNLIKE our "Adversaries," we will "Have Pity On" Those who would Destroy us;--& AFTER we Defeat Them, we will Show Mercy.
NO OTHER CULTURE "Understands Mercy!"
"America" is "Unique;" & SO IT MUST BE!!
Doc
thanks for the scanner report.

My response: "Chinese Brothers Indicted in Smuggling Scheme" was in response to your post # 715 in which you posted: It's pretty tough to get out of China without Government approval and government objectives.
I still to this point have not stated anything definite, nor that there was or was not the possibility of the Chinese government having any involvement and until that is stated by our leaders I will refrain from accusing anyone, country or otherwise.
put's my tinfoil tripe to bed
;-)
lol.... I like tinfoil and often find it useful. : )
hmm, then your point with the ICE story was what?
Never mind.
" plan to smuggle nuclear material into the U.S. from Mexico... "
NO !
Greta going to talk about this on her program.....
Wonder where he got the pictures.
darksheare suggested that there's probably [illegal] passport places in Mexico....
FOX NEWS ALERT ON Greta re 2 men 2 women terrorists re Boston
4 Chinese nationals crossed the Mexican border in the past couple of days "with nuclear material in tow" tactical force present in Boston. MA Governor made his way home....he says "I Should be there [at MA]." Tonight Bostonians we talked to are concerned.....
The tip originally came into CA authorities after they had crossed the border....they also already said that none of the 4 have ever been on any previous watch list.
Re: reliability of tipster: "it's possible this tipster isn't...but after 9/11 not taking anything for granted." "It's being considered a serious potential threat."
"They are desperately trying to piece it together,'' said the offial, who added that if the threat is real it is ``very scary.''
A company that trains explosive-sniffing dogs said it was alerted that the canines would be searching for a ``dirty bomb,'' a New York City law enforcement official said yesterday.
How can dog 'sniff' radiation ?? I mean if the isotopes are kept separate from explosives...
Good question and one I defer to those more knowledgeable... : )
