Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat - Thread Thirty-One

[ExSoldier]

This did, however, point out how we are sorely lacking on the small city homefront to know what is going on with these Joel Jihad types.

How well I know! I live in Coral Gables, FL. Near the University of Miami campus. From my local contacts in law enforcement, I gather that the school is a hotbed of Islamist activity. But they're virtually untouchable. Most have diplomatic immunity. I can just imagine what kind of stuff gets put in those diplomatic pouches! Can't you just see the notes from diplomatic "daddies:" Tell Mohammed over at UM here are the detonators he asked for in his last letter home....

excellent find. President Bush needs to read this (I watched his speech--it was great, except he said that the terrorists don't represent Islam...)

Someone in the US government is going to have to take a serious look at the policy regarding terrorist funding. The way the law is written, the PA may very well be ineligible for US aid if it is actively funding HAMAS members.

Can you send a bit down here? It got cold here finally.

Here's more:

The storm that moved in from the Rockies overnight Wednesday

dropped up to two feet of snow in parts of western and central North Dakota, and

winds up to 50 mph created blizzard conditions in some areas.

Thousands of people were without power and

highways around the state, including Interstate 94 west of Bismarck, were shut down. National Guard soldiers were called out to rescue stranded motorists.

"It is, on our records, probably one of the earliest ones, as far as our recorded history goes, in 126, 130 years," said Sam Walker, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Bismarck.

****FBI FREEH UNLOADS ON CLINTON: 'CLOSETS WERE FULL OF SKELETONS'(10/6/05)****

Thu Oct 06 2005 14:07:50 ET

Louis Freeh Speaks for the First Time About his Terrible Relationship with the President

Former FBI Director Louis Freeh says publicly for the first time that his relationship with President Bill Clinton – the man who appointed him – was a terrible one because Clinton’s scandals made him a constant target of FBI investigations. Freeh discloses this and many other details of his dealings with the Clinton White House in a new bombshell book: 'My FBI : Bringing Down the Mafia, Investigating Bill Clinton, and Fighting the War on Terror' -- ste for release next week....

In another revelation, Freeh says the former president let down the American people and the families of victims of the Khobar Towers terror attack in Saudi Arabia. After promising to bring to justice those responsible for the bombing that killed 19 and injured hundreds, Freeh says Clinton refused to personally ask Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah to allow the FBI to question bombing suspects the kingdom had in custody – the only way the bureau could secure the interviews, according to Freeh. Freeh writes in the book, “Bill Clinton raised the subject only to tell the crown prince that he understood the Saudis’ reluctance to cooperate and then he hit Abdullah up for a contribution to the Clinton Presidential Library.” Says Freeh, “That’s a fact that I am reporting.”.....

I agree.
We discussed that very thing a few weeks ago.
The President authorized the funding.

[Velveeta]

Yesssssss!!!
I'll be buying that book.

[Velveeta]

Thanks, JP.
I'm watching that one too.

I do wonder where they were going with all those explosives???

I like your new tagline. :-)

[all4one]

Yep...and a few more as gifts! I predict that this book with be #1 within days. And the MSM news readers will be flustered "if" they even acknowledge Freeh or his book. They have all been in the Clinton camp for so long they can't see the forrest for the trees...or something like that...I am just giddy with delight that the true Clinton legacy is coming to light.

[Velveeta]

Feels like Christmas in October. :-)

I see there's an FR thread on the subject.

Going to head over there for a bit, it should be a good one!

[LucyT]

Here's more:

Freeh says he was determined to stay on as FBI director until President Clinton left office so that Clinton could not appoint his successor. “I was concerned about who he would put in there as FBI director because he had expressed antipathy for the FBI, for the director,” he tells Wallace. “[So] I was going to stay there and make sure he couldn’t replace me,” Freeh tells Wallace.

Good find. Thanks for posting.

[JustPiper]

I want to know the 'name' of this guy, this is what 15 min from downtown and Paul Williams has got me shaking like he did 3 yrs ago!

Thanks on the tagline, miss you buddy!

[all4one]

Yep...I can just imagine what else is in this book. Hmmm...I wonder what Shillery is doing right now as this is breaking! If Bill is "disappeared" sometime soon...well I won't be surprised.
