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!
Threat Matrix - Daily Terrorism Threat

U.S. works 'day and night' to rein in al-Qaida
Full Story

WASHINGTON - Prompted by new intelligence indicating Osama bin Laden reached out to the most feared terrorist in Iraq, President Bush charged Thursday that "al-Qaida still hopes to attack us on our own soil."

"Recently, we learned that Osama bin Laden has urged the terrorist Zarqawi to form a group to conduct attacks outside Iraq, including here in the United States," Bush said at the swearing-in of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff.

The president vowed, "We're working every day and night to dismantle (bin Laden's) network and to bring him to justice."

Is this abnormal earthquake activity for the region. Fifteen 5.0+ in the last day. Indonesia is getting pretty shaken up

In the long term, this is not abnormal. Some have considered this an 'aftershock' to the Dec 26 quake further north. I wouldn't go that far, but it is most likely due to the Dec 26 quake. This is an active plate boundary and the Dec 26 quake probably stressed the southern portion eventually leading to yesterday's event. If you followed the promulgation of the Dec 26 quake, you'd see that the aftershocks moved north-northwest along the plate boundary, but very few to the south-southeast. Yesterday's quake was also very limited in its promulgation, which may be why there were no significant tsunamis.

Have been trying to stay up to date with TM by printing out pages----reading late at night. Have not been able to make too many contributions lately.

HOWEVER- I saw an article of interest yesterday in the Norwalk (CT) paper.

It seems a very small plane, flying very low, white and green, was spied heading toward the Saugatauk Reservior. Numerous citizens reported the citing, and police helicopters, etc were dispatched. To my knowledge the plane has not been located. Just wondering, with all those threats about poisoning city waters. Did anyone else happen upon this article?

I personally believe that her husband made numerous attempts to end her life. Who knows what that initial "thud" was? OT- terri-Why the delay on obtaining help? Why the hypoglycemia after his (locked door ) visits with his wife? Read the testimony of attending nurses, including his alleged comment, "Why won't the b----h die?" Recall that rich fellow in Newport RI who tried to kill his wife with injections of insulin?.....too may questions for me.

Of course the autopsy will reveal severe brain damage. I have seen pictures of her brain scan. Nevertheless, she has parents willing to care for her- why won't beloved hubby let them?

The morphine drip is to stop the agonizing pain.

US-VISIT falls short

The Department of Homeland Security's US-VISIT program has achieved "only the bare minimum" in tracking foreign travelers through the nation's 50 busiest land ports of entry, according to a new report by the department's inspector general.

Fewer than 3 percent of all foreign visitors who enter the United States at land border crossings have their identities verified and checked against a database to ensure suspected criminals or terrorists are not allowed in the country, according to the report.

1. Schindlers Were Outgunned by Lawyers Early

In case you were wondering, with so many facts in dispute about the Terri Schiavo case, the answer is relatively clear: The Schindlers, well-intentioned as they have been, were outgunned in the early legal fight that sealed their daughter's fate.

The early legal maneuvering created "facts" that are now beyond dispute in higher courts. One is the unbelievable claim by Michael Schiavo that Terri wanted to be starved and dehydrated to death.

One Florida attorney told the story on Steve Sailer's Web blog (www.isteve.com).

Here's what the lawyer wrote:

From local news station in CT: (WNBC)


REPORT OF LOW FLYING PLANE TRIGGERS MASSIVE SEARCH

POSTED: 8:51 am EST March 28, 2005

EASTON, Conn. -- A report of a low-flying plane headed toward the Saugatuck Reservoir triggered a 12-hour search that drew more than 60 police officers and helicopters from Connecticut and New York.

No plane was found Saturday, though officials did pick up a distress signal coming from a point about 12 miles north of Bridgeport.

"We have no idea what it was," said Easton Police Chief Jack Solomon. "It could have been something on a hiker's jacket like a transponder emitting a signal. All we know is that it lasted for hours."

The search started around noon Saturday when two local residents informed Easton police that they saw a small white plane with green markings flying very low.

"They were worried because it was flying so low and heading for the woods that it was in distress," Solomon said. "Then we got word from a New York airport tower that they were picking up a distress signal too."

Solomon notified state police and surrounding departments, including Fairfield, Redding, Monroe and Trumbull.

The police departments in Fairfield and Westchester County both sent helicopters, but searches in the woods and from the air turned up nothing.

One thing I do know Michael is no hero requesting the autopsy as the MSM is portending...

It is Florida LAW that anyone who is to be cremated MUST submit to an autopsy
