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: U.S. Terrorism
Home grown Islamists may hit US: FBI chief
Full Story

WASHINGTON -- The United States could be attacked by "home grown" Islamist terror groups, the FBI's chief has warned.

FBI Director Robert Mueller told the London Financial Times newspaper in an interview published Thursday that the United States could face attacks from "home-grown terrorism" very similar to the July 7 bombings in London that killed 52 people and wounded another 700, Mueller said.

When asked if the United States could face such attacks from "home-grown groups", Mueller answered emphatically: "Absolutely, it could," the Financial Times said.

Newest info on Joel Jihad, 5 others involved? And what about that ticket to Algeria??

Suicide my you know what.

The mosque in Norman should be surrounded, everyone should be questioned. I believe the mussy roomate was questioned and released.

It's about TIME, Mr. President.

Now close the borders.

President Bush just stated that 3 al Qaida plots to take place inside the United States were thwarted since 9/11.

One dead and several injured in explosion (New York)


One person is dead following an explosion at a housing and storage facility in Oswego County. It happened between Schroeppel and Phoenix along County Route 6 and Bankrupt Road.

Several people were taken to local hospitals with serious and minor burns. Migrant workers were said to be staying inside the home. County officials say with a situation like this, crews from several agencies responded.



No word on the cause of the explosion. At this time officials don't suspect any foul play.

I wish he would be more specific.

I wonder if something happens or is thwarted if they would tell us how the perpetrators got into the country?

Does anyone remember a news article re: 5 terrorist wannabes arrested in Saudi Arabia for having fake documents to enter oil platforms and facilities? Their intent was to blow them up.

Also mentioned was bl or zawahiri's message 12/04 telling sleeper cells in this country to go after our oil facilities.

I heard a small piece of this on Fox yesterday, but did not catch all of it.

"The dragon-slayer's red cross was the symbol of the Crusades
against Islam and has been adopted by causes ranging from football
fans to the Royal Navy. But, as BBC News Online's Simon Pipe reports,
some critics say St George's Day is best ignored."<<<<

Is the above the real key to how the attacks were chosen?

Is there an exact day for St. Georges day?

If i disappear, it took me 20 minutes to get the computer to work this morning, it would come on, but not go into Windows or do anything, oh well, so be it. Life.

St. George's Day, at least in 2002, was on April 23. I don't know what, if any, relation there is to how attacks are chosen, but since St. George's cross was used as the banner for the crusades, I can see how it would be an incitement for jihadis.

I can imagine, with their dedication to symbolism, how it must irk them that a "George" is leading the charge against islamic terror.

I'll keep looking for overlaps.
