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.

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.

Yes, that's one answer.

Or LE was tipped that the date for the plot would be today or tomorrow.

3 minutes ago, Fox radio news.

Sniper on rooftop, shooting at train. In New Jersey.

I got impression, it was a Metro type train, as they have shut it down.

The pic of the KOKO market.

I've seen it before. Recently.

Where did we see it and why?<<<

Is it one of the building in the Threats to Denmark photos that Cindy posted in 2887 and 2931.

It does look a bit like the one I called a school.

"He was nice to everybody," Loukakis said. <<<

How many markets and motels, fit in the same class?

Hidden assets, takes on a new meaning.

It does look a bit like one you called the school, but that's not it.

Since it won't come to the front of my brain and I'm getting frustrated searching, I'm going to quit looking and hope that the answer finds me. :-)

"Tunnels Under Baltimore's Harbor Reopen"
Updated: Tuesday, Oct. 18, 2005 - 6:04 PM

By BEN NUCKOLS
Associated Press Writer

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "BALTIMORE (AP) - A sketchy threat to blow up vehicles full of explosives prompted authorities Tuesday to close one of the busy tunnels underneath Baltimore's harbor and partially shut down the other. One person who may have been connected to the threat was arrested on immigration charges, a law enforcement official said."

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Four people were arrested on immigration charges at businesses with Middle Eastern connections, said a federal law enforcement official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

One of them was arrested as a result of information supplied by the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force, which was heading the tunnel investigation, the source said. That arrest, made at a pizza shop, may be connected to the threat, the source said."

Koko Market

Majed Hussein

2. If this report came in last week why were the tunnels closed TODAY?

I wonder if thats why they reopened the tunnel. Because they found it . . .

BAW's theory may be the answer to your question number 2.

[Velveeta]

WBAL-TV 11 News reporter David Collins reported that the FBI is questioning Majed Hussein, an Egyptian, who owns the KOKO Market in the 6000 block of Eastern Avenue in Baltimore's Highlandtown neighborhood.
(snip)
According to neighbors of the store, the FBI arrived at about 11:30 a.m., and three hours later, they left with Hussein and a brown paper bag. The Baltimore Sun reported he is being questioned in connection with a threat that involved the Baltimore tunnels.

Collins said the KOKO Market has been a fixture in this neighborhood for several years, offering international money transfers, MoneyGrams and lottery tickets.(snip)

[freeperfromnj]

I can't place it but it looks so familiar to me. I feel like it's popped up before in TM researh. It could be a store in Brooklyn that looks similar. An ice cream store maybe? I just can't remember.

[freeperfromnj]

Is that the same tunnel the massive truck explosion closed down a couple of years ago during a Baltimore baseball game or something?

[freeperfromnj]

Yes. LE must have known it was going down today. Or maybe those high tech bomb detection devices that are now placed outside major tunnels picked it up.

[nw_arizona_granny]

Thank you!

Is it one of the missing 5 Egyptians, protesting the arrest of the 'one'.

Fox news says that the arrest today, was on immigration
violations......guessing that it is the market owner.

Was on Fox radio news, one minute ago.

[Velveeta]

LOL!

[freeperfromnj]

They've rounded up THIRTY Egyptians from the Baltimore area in connection with this investigation

Md. Tunnel Threat Suspect Arrested

(CBS/AP) Authorities have arrested a man they say may be connected to a threat that prompted the temporary shutdown of the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel and restrictions in another.

The suspect was one of four people arrested on immigration charges after several raids were conducted at businesses with Middle Eastern connections.......

CBS News correspondent Bob Orr reports that the FBI is questioning 30 people of Egyptian heritage who've been rounded up in the Baltimore area as part of the investigation........

Photos,

He looks well fed, from now on I will be afraid of a man who needs a shave........

that market photo, sure looks like some we chased at the old
Twexus.com site.

Not surprising, my computer will not work there, so am not
up to date on them.

[Velveeta]

Thank goodness it looks familiar to you too.

I saw the pic and completely froze.

I'm 99% certain it was the same pic that we saw, just a little different angle.

[Velveeta]

I don't know if it's the same tunnel.

Which county in Baltimore is this?

Prince George's?
