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!

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.

Fox - explosive device in house in upscale Atlanta neighborhood - swat team on scene

I'd love to know if a NEST team is on alert. Or if there is a garage full of fuel oil and ammonium nitrate.

They found no explosives. It appears to be canisters of Co2 similar to ones used for paintball.

Suspicious device found at gas station

DULUTH — Police on Monday evacuated the area around a busy gas station near Gwinnett Place Mall after someone spotted a possible bomb in the parking lot.
Bomb squad technicians from the Gwinnett Police Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit were called to QuikTrip at 3495 Satellite Blvd. to investigate the suspicious device at 8:45 a.m. They found a cylindrical, multi-colored device that was the size of a mini-flashlight in the parking lot near the store, said Officer Darren Moloney, spokesman for the Gwinnett County Police Department
Police evacuated the business and shut down Satellite Boulevard and Merchants Way. The device was detonated safely after about an hour, Moloney said. Authorities were still trying to determine the contents and purpose of the device.
“We’re going to be doing some processing at our headquarters,” said Moloney. “More advanced chemical testing and processing will be done at the GBI crime lab.”
Moloney said the device was too small to have posed a risk to people in the area.

Tongue in cheek...and inquiring minds want to know, "If the 'explosive device' went off, would it be considered a threat? Stay tuned lame-stream media fans as we breathlessly await for the defenition of THREAT."

Great to see you, 'zilla! When they get around to calling us fire-breathing prehistoric monsters, we'll ping you. In the meantime, it's fun just to watch them throw ugly words around as if they had any meaning.
