Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat - Thread Twenty-Eight

[nw_arizona_granny]

Ok, start packing, we will move to Canada and get rich selling the links to the bomb making sites we have found....

Joking of course.

Has it ever crossed your mind that the Feds have left those sites up, on purpose, hoping some fool will try to use the recipes and blow himself up?

LOL

Badges for sale, along with the uniforms.

Stolen vehicles to match the uniform.

Or vehicles sold at auction, in every town and county and of course E-Bay.

What a way to go where you are not wanted.

Two ETA bombs hit Spain, no injuries - official
Fri Jul 29, 2005 6:26 PM BST
MADRID (Reuters) - Two small bombs exploded on Spanish highways south of Madrid on Friday after a Basque newspaper received a warning call in the name of the Basque separatist group ETA, officials said.

There were no injuries and traffic on at least one of the two affected highways had resumed, a spokeswoman for the central government office in Ciudad Real said.

The blasts -- one near Ciudad Real and the other near Toledo -- hit just as millions of Spaniards were flooding out of cities for the August holidays. It was not immediately clear if the bombs were placed on the road itself.

ETA remains western Europe's most active home-grown guerrilla group and the blasts hit a day after Irish Republican Army guerrillas formally ended their 30-year armed campaign against British rule in Northern Ireland.

ETA has killed nearly 850 people since 1968 in a bombing and shooting campaign for Basque independence from Spain and France, but it has not killed anyone in more than two years amid a sustained police crackdown that has landed hundreds in jail.

Four more ETA suspects were arrested in France on Thursday, officials said.

ETA's last significant attack came on July 12, when four bombs exploded near a power station. As is commonplace, a caller warned of the blasts ahead of time.

In May the government offered to talk to the group if it laid down its arms.

Bombings have continued since then, but ETA called a ceasefire in June against elected politicians. However, guerrillas said in an internal bulletin that the truce did not include government members, according to news reports.

ETA has issued repeated calls for negotiations but the government considers ETA a terrorist organisation and says it must stop violence if it wants to talk.

Putin demands preventive strikes against terrorists

27.07.2005, 12.01




MOSCOW, July 27 (Itar-Tass) - Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday
demanded from the Interior Ministry pre-emptive strikes against terrorists.
“The recent blasts in London, terrorist acts in Iraq, Turkey, Israel, the latest
terrorist act in Egypt, crimes against authorities in the Chechen republic and in
Dagestan here in Russia demonstrate that terrorism remains one of the main threats
in the world,” President Putin said at a Kremlin meeting with senior officers.
“With that in view, Russia will be performing an important part of joint work in the
sphere of fight against terrorism,” Putin pledged. The Russian leader set the task to
the Interior Ministry to deliver preventive strikes on terrorists. “Your (Interior
Ministry) actions in that direction should have pre-emptive character,” the
president emphasized.
“We are well aware how serious are the tasks facing Russia’s power wielding
agencies, first of all the Interior Ministry’s interior bodies and interior troops,”
President Putin added. <<<<<<<<<<

Wow, I brought your link here, do you realize, Putin has just announced that he wants to strike anyone he calls a terrorist.

Didn't he call us that last week?

This is a dangerous move he is taking, as he wants to own the other area lands, as Russia did before.

Good find.

"Bombs are 'in' now", the latest hobby for most of the world.

Thanks I will pass.

I remember when I bought the first TV, ever owned in my family, for my mother, she couldn't get rid of the company, but it was the 'in' thing in 1953.

[nw_arizona_granny]

Sorry about not cleaning up that post, but look at the number.....LOL.....2666.

My mind was on Putin and the uses he might use his new rules for.

[DAVEY CROCKETT]

This is a dangerous move he is taking, as he wants to own the other area lands, as Russia did before.

= = = = =
I know and yes he did. This makes the terrorist look like first graders.

It is making my head spin. You were talking about no terrorist attacks in China ( I am going to google that) and I mentioned they have all there missiles pointed at us. Of course they always have.

China and Russia are working on all kinds of oil deals and military practice's together including Mexico.

Wrapping myself in TIN FOIL

[DAVEY CROCKETT]

interesting read and comparison between clintooon and GW!

However, whereas rat-infested habitats can be destroyed, terrorists conceal themselves among civilian populations and any massive military retaliation is certain to result in the loss of innocent lives. When you kill innocent civilians you are condemned by the media, human rights groups and the nations most closely allied to you.


Prior to 9/11 the U.S. response to each terrorist attack had been predictable. When the Khobar Towers were bombed in 1996, President Clinton said, "The cowards who committed this murderous act must not go unpunished." He responded to the attacks on our embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998, by calling terrorist acts "abhorrent and inhuman" and promising to "use all means at our disposal to bring those responsible to justice." After the U.S.S Cole was attacked in 2000, he warned the terrorists, "You will not find a safe harbor. We will find you, and justice will prevail."


Only after the embassy bombings did he authorize military action, a missile strike against terrorist training camps in Afghanistan and a suspected chemical weapons plant in Sudan. The argument has been made that surgical strikes that limit collateral damage are less likely to result in a negative reaction by the American people. Lieutenant General Paul Van Riper, U.S.MC, and Major General Robert Scales, U.S.A, believe that one of the lessons of the first Gulf War is that when our nation’s leaders think that the American people are unprepared to deal with the carnage of war, "psychological revulsion" becomes a powerful weapon in the enemy’s arsenal especially when that weapon is unwittingly wielded by our own media.

By the time bin Laden laid the plans for his 9/11 surprise, he could feel fairly certain of two things: The U.S. would continue to view terrorists as criminals rather than as enemy combatants engaged in a war against the United States, and even when military power was brought to bear by launching missiles at suspected terrorist hideouts, the mission would be undertaken in the name of law enforcement, not as an act of war.

The Bush administration’s invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq in response to 9/11 caught bin Laden by surprise, and invalidated his hypothesis about the willingness of the U.S. to use military power to destroy terrorist bases and training camps, and to change the regimes of nations that harbored and supported terrorist organizations. However, bin Laden has reason to believe that our military response will be undermined from the inside.

Iran's New President Glorifies Martyrdom

The act of martyrdom is often celebrated by the Iranian theocracy. Most recently, Iranian President-Elect Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad, in his second TV appearance since his election victory, spoke July 25, 2005 on Iranian Channel 1 in praise of "the art of martyrdom."

The day after Ahmadi-Nejad's TV appearance, the London Arabic-language daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat published a report about his spiritual advisor, Ayatollah Mohammad Misbach Yazdi. The report advised Iranians on how to volunteer for the Iranian regime-sponsored volunteer martyrdom squad, and mentioned an Iranian women's volunteer group that is dedicated to carrying out martyrdom operations against U.S., British, and Israeli forces.

The subject of Iranian martyrdom seekers was also the topic of a recent program on Al-Arabiya TV, which is discussed below.





Ahmadi-Nejad on the Art of Martyrdom

The following are excerpts from a speech by Iranian President-Elect Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad, which aired July 25, 2005 on Iranian Channel 1. In it, he praises martyrdom operations and states that Islam will conquer the world. (To view this clip, visit http://memritv.org/search.asp?ACT=S9&P1=782.)

Ahmadi-Nejad: "We want art that is on the offensive. Art on the offensive exalts and defends the noble principles, and attacks principles that are corrupt, vulgar, ungodly, and inhuman.

"Art reaches perfection when it portrays the best life and best death. After all, art tells you how to live. That is the essence of art. Is there art that is more beautiful, more divine, and more eternal than the art of martyrdom? A nation with martyrdom knows no captivity. Those who wish to undermine this principle undermine the foundations of our independence and national security. They undermine the foundation of our eternity.

"The message of the [Islamic] Revolution is global, and is not restricted to a specific place or time. It is a human message, and it will move forward.

"Have no doubt... Allah willing, Islam will conquer what? It will conquer all the mountain tops of the world."

Spiritual Advisor of Iran's President-Elect Calls on Iranian Volunteers to Carry Out Martyrdom Operations

Ayatollah Mohammad Misbah Yazdi, the spiritual leader of Iranian President-Elect Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad, issued an announcement to the Iranian people, calling upon them to volunteer for an Iranian organization of martyrs. [1]

The announcement read: "Acts of martyrdom are the great pinnacle of the [Iranian] people and the height of its courage. The commander [Iranian Leader] Khamenei has announced registration for the forces of martyrdom in all of Iran's provinces, in order to defend Islam and to fight the enemies of Islam. Our sacred organization, [the organization of martyrs belonging] to the Islamic Republic, is intended for those interested in carrying out shahada [martyrdom]. The volunteer, male or female, will join specialized courses. Brother and sister believers who want to defend Islam are invited to contact [us] at POB 664-1653, Tehran, and to send two photos, a copy of their birth certificate, and a request to join the martyrs' corps."

According to the report, the organization is headed by Elias Naderan, leader of the conservative faction of the Iranian parliament, former intelligence officer in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, and an ally of President-Elect Ahmadi-Nejad. A few months ago, he founded an organization called Zeitoon, intended for women and men interested in committing martyrdom operations "against the enemies of Iran and Islam" – especially against U.S., British, and Israeli forces.

Ayatollah Masbah Yazdi attended one of Naderan's conventions, and emphasized to the hundreds of participants the need to volunteer for the martyrdom operation training courses.

One of the volunteers, Mohammad Reza Siyari, who recently fled from Iran to Turkey, told Al-Sharq Al-Awsat that during a visit to Ayatollah Masbah Yazdi's office in Qom, the latter told the volunteers: "The gates of Paradise have opened for you. There are beautiful black-eyed virgins waiting for you on the banks of rivers of honey."

Siyari further said that the volunteers undergo training in four Revolutionary Guards and "Army of Jerusalem" camps.

Al-Arabiya TV Report on Iranian Martyrdom Seekers

The following are excerpts from a report about the movement of "martyrdom seekers" in Iran. Al-Arabiya TV aired this report on July 2, 2005. (To view this clip, visit http://memritv.org/search.asp?ACT=S9&P1=736.)

Martyrdom-seeking movement member Vesaly: My name is Vesaly... We are first and foremost Muslims, and it is our duty to defend our brothers and sisters throughout the world. We don't need permission from anybody. This has to do with our religious duty and responsibilities. This is our choice, and we have no fear. We adhere to the legacy of our late leader, Imam Khomeini."

Crowd: "There is no God but Allah. There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is Allah's messenger."

Reporter: "These young women have forsaken the temptations of life, and have taken the hard way. Indeed, they have chosen martyrdom as a way of liberating the Islamic lands. This is what they say.

"40,000 time bombs in Iran – this is the number of volunteers so far, and the registration is still open. There is no distinction between men and women, Sunnis or Shiites. 'We all sacrifice for the sake of Islam,' they chant. This is the movement of martyrdom seekers, whose goals and organizational structure are still unclear. They refused to give further details, but did not conceal their determination to sacrifice their lives. The reason [is] what America has done in the holy places of Najaf and Karbala."

Firooz Rajai, a movement leader: "In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate. The movement of martyrdom seekers began after the American campaign against Najaf and Karbala in Iraq, over a year ago. The religious scholars decided that such a movement should be established in this country, the majority of which are Shiite, in order to support their brothers, especially following the experience of the war that was forced on Iran by the Saddam Hussein regime in Iraq."

Reporter: "This is a symbolic grave of the first man who tried to get rid of Salman Rushdie. Here there are also symbolic graves commemorating the people who killed hundreds of American and French soldiers in Lebanon, in 1983.

"This young mother from Palestine, who sacrificed her life and blew herself up at an Israeli checkpost, is a role model for the movement's members, who believe this is the only way to liberate the Palestinian lands, especially the Al-Aqsa Mosque."

Firooz Rajai: "In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate. We will not allow the Zionists to build their Solomon Temple in the place where the Al-Aqsa Mosque stands. They have not succeeded so far, and they never will. We are willing to sacrifice our bodies and souls to defend the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Our goal is to achieve martyrdom by way of true Jihad. This is the true path to which we strive. We don't need a fatwa on this, since we get our fatwas from the Koran and from all the authorities on Islamic law. We vow to turn into bombs that will explode at anyone who wishes to desecrate our holy places."

Reporter: "The movement denies any connection to the Iranian government, and considers itself an independent organization. Although the government occasionally expresses reservations about the movement of martyrdom seekers and its operations, the movement has used government buildings for its training, and some Revolutionary Guards members have publicly defended them."

Iranian MP Hamid-Reza Haji-Babai: "Martyrdom seekers may exist in every country, and in Iran, they have beliefs that they hold sacred. This is a popular movement, which cannot take the form of an organization. Iran has so far managed, democratically and diplomatically, to maintain relations with all countries and preserve its status, despite the American hostility. The oppressive, inhuman, and undemocratic American behavior in recent years has led to the creation of martyrdom-seeking movements everywhere."

Reporter: "After receiving theory lessons, the volunteers undergo secret training, far from the media. Even though the movement's leaders refrain from disclosing the kind of activities that are included in this training, they emphasize that this is not a military organization, and that no special or complex training is required – a few days are enough to train the volunteers."

Firooz Rajai: "So far, we have not sent any brigade out of the country, and have not clashed with government opposition to us. We maintain law and order, and our activity is clear and serves Islam. This does not mean that we are not prepared to report for duty anytime, anywhere. We believe in combining ideology and action. Our movement is not a symbolic one. Our goal is well known. When the time comes, martyrdom will be inevitable. There are many NGOs in Iran that support the Palestinian cause, and we maintain relations and cooperate with them, as well as with Hamas and the Islamic Jihad. We meet with the representatives of the two movements in Tehran, and we hope this will be successful."

Reporter: "Whether in Iraq, Palestine, or any Islamic country, the movement of martyrdom seekers is ready for action, but the Iranian government still does not know whether the movement has already sent volunteers to Iraq or even to Israel."

Ali Samadi, a movement leader: "As everyone can see, the Zionists attribute no significance to the Arab and Islamic governments. They continue their aggressive policies to fulfill their goals. The world considers the Israeli military to be the fifth most powerful force, and its security apparatus to be the second most powerful in the world. Since they only understand the language of force, our new weapon of martyrdom operations is bound to change the balance of power. Even the separation wall they are building won't prevent the martyrdom operations and the changing of the balance. The Iranian youth takes pride in [the fact that] this movement was founded after the Islamic Revolution in order to create a core of resistance against the occupiers in a way unmarred by flaws, as was the case with the Al-Qaeda organization, for example. We are not afraid of the American fleets or the British weapons in Iraq. We vow to become time bombs in the event of any aggression on our land."

Reporter: "Thus, they await death with happiness and joy. In their view, martyrdom for the sake of Allah is the sweetest thing."

"Top court upholds acquittal of man who sold bomb recipes on internet"
Last Updated Fri, 29 Jul 2005 20:04:50 EDT
CBC News

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The Supreme Court of Canada has upheld the acquittal of an Alberta man who sold instructions over the internet on how to make bombs and break into houses.

INDEPTH: Homemade bombs
Those instructions were included in batches of data Rene Hamilton sold to about 20 customers after sending out hundreds of e-mail messages offering software he said would generate phony credit-card numbers that merchants would accept as real.

In a 6-3 decision released on Friday, the Supreme Court noted that an appeal court, even the highest one, cannot reverse a trial judge's rulings on the facts of a case, as opposed to the judge's interpretation of the law.

In Hamilton's trial, the judge accepted his claim that he did not intend his customers to build bombs or commit burglaries and had not read the instructions himself, even though he had seen a computer-generated list of the files he sold. (It included such file names as "bombs.txt," "bombs2.txt" and "How to Break into a House.txt.") He did not mention bomb-making or housebreaking in his promotional e-mails."
