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 - Daily Terrorism Threat
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.

Cal, every time I read this and the other notices, I get the minature submarine in my mind.

It all ties in with the caves you did so much work on in mexico last year.

Have you made a regular thread of this post?

It should be a thread, so that all the Freepers in the Texas and Florida area's will be alerted. (My opinion)

Laura does a wonderful job of research and writing, I am very proud of her.

Oh, isn't that just great.
Any nuclear scientists among the repatriates? <<<

In a group of 12,500 men, I can imagine there were enough evil minded men to see that this country had troubles.

And a few who gave thanks to God for freedom and a chance at a good life.

Spies, al Qaeda and scientists, set to teach those that wanted to learn.

It is not surprising that we are having so many 'little' attacks here, on oil/chemical refineries, schools, trucks and bus drivers, who run into the bridge abutments.

It might prove interesting to know if the 12,500 Iraq brought here, settled in Oklahoma and if they are the source of the cells in that area.

It is my understanding that they did.

Strange that there is not more info on the Internet about the Iraqi's brought here.

see #4057 for the link.

Just got home after being away for a bit. This is the first I've heard about the bomb making components being found at SD. I just flipped on the local news and will let you know if they say anything about this. I'm coming in a few minutes late to the news though so I may have already missed it ;/

Nothing yet on news.. but do either of you, or anyone else, know if it was the main terminal or the commuter terminal? They are not connected at all.

Why be so cryptic about it all?

Because the sheeple won't question it.<<<

This is not a joke, the radio callers in California, do not accept that terrorists might enter the state from Mexico, that there is a war or a need for security.

Try listening to the broadcast of Ray Talifero on KGO.com, on the computer, he is on week nights from 1 am to about 5 am Pacific time, it will blow your mind.

No, it is not on my list of listening programs, but I do hear a few minutes of it at times.

Has anyone asked "who would have a toy bomb? and for what reason?".

I might call it a "training bomb".

Do you want to take lessons from a bomb maker, who is not smart enough to deliver the parts, safely?

You're welcome. I'm still a bit leery of the toy explanation. I still can't quite figure out how DHS went from an "IED with all of the components" to a toy and cookies.

We need to never forget the danger of N. Korea.

My thanks to Tiger for posting this thread.

S. Korean Lawmaker,"N. Korea demanded to
Hyundai blueprints of a submarine(and Aegis ship)"
Chosun Ilbo ^ | 10/25/05

Posted on 10/25/2005 5:20:09 AM PDT by TigerLikesRooster

/begin my translation

S. Korean Lawmaker, "N. Korea demanded to
Hyundai Asan blueprints of a submarine (and an
Aegis ship)"

claimed, "This is the real reason (N. Korea) scrapped Hyundai's N.
Korean venture."
Unification Minister Chung (Dong-young) dismissed it saying,
"Baseless allegation ... no more than an unfounded rumor)

Seoul, Yonhap (News)

2005.10.25

Lawmaker Lee Ban-ho from (opposition) Hannara
Party asserted on Oct. 25, "The reason why N.
Korea declared the total scrapping of Hyundai
Asan's N. Korean business venture is because N.
Korea demanded to have blueprints for a
submarine and an Aegis ship under construction at
Hyundai Shipyard, but Hyundai Asan refused."
Assemblyman Lee made such an assertion,
saying, "The source close to Hyundai Asan passed
this intelligence," during the questioning session
on unification, foreign policy, and national security
issues of government, and also during his
conversation with Yonhap News.

"I'm still pondering why Chavez pulled out Venezuela's funds from the US reserves and transfered them to Europe. In my opinion that is a big statement."

OPINION: Yes, it is a big statement.
Yes, Chavez seems a bit paranoid lately.
Yes, Chavez seems to have interesting friends.
Yes, Chavez seems to be heading in an interesting direction.
Chavez does need to look in the mirror and face his biggest enemy -- himself./End of Opinion.
