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.

"Jury faults Port Authority in '93 WTC bomb"
AP ^ | 10/26/5 | SAMUEL MAULL

Posted on 10/26/2005 3:21:25 PM PDT by SmithL

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "NEW YORK - A jury ruled Wednesday that the Port Authority was negligent in the bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993 - a long-awaited legal victory for victims of an attack that killed six people and wounded 1,000.

The six-person jury ruled that the Port Authority, the agency that owned the World Trade Center, was negligent by not properly maintaining the parking garage, where terrorists detonated more than a half-ton of explosives in a Ryder van. It said the negligence was a "substantial factor" in the allowing the bombing to occur.

The jury took just one day to reach its verdict. Several separate trials will now be held to determine money damages."

My life is ruined says Muslim pilot

SNIP:Lotfi Raissi, the Algerian pilot who spent five months in jail fighting off claims that he trained the September 11 hijackers, has spoken candidly to The Muslim News about his treatment by British authorities and the uphill struggle to clear his name.

“My life is ruined, I’ve gone from being a professional pilot to another unemployed Arab.” That’s how Raissi describes the state of his life. Until Thursday September 20, 2001, Raissi led, what he called, a “content and prosperous life”.

What Alex said and why we should listen

SNIP:AMERICA’S BORDERS: America is being diluted by people who are lazy and dumbing her down. They aren’t coming to you with anything to add, only everything to take. You have absolutely no control over who enters and who doesn’t, so you can’t tell if someone will be an asset or a liability to you. You say illegal immigration is against the law, but you keep giving amnesty to these criminals and do nothing to secure your borders. Recent events have made it undeniably clear that there are people out there who will stop at nothing to destroy you, yet you seem to apologize for defending yourself. You spend billions each year on printing government documents in both Spanish and English, in spite of having voted yourself an English speaking nation. No one else does that; why do you? Since when does the minority of the people call all of the shots? What happened to majority rule? There are already schools in southwest America that teach all subjects in Spanish. The number one need within any nation is the ability to communicate. You are shooting yourself in the foot. You need to close your borders, seal them off, capture all illegals, put them in prison, and then use them as labor for all of those so-called jobs that no one else will do. This would not only slow the invasion, but be a boon to your economy. The government should be doing what the Minutemen are doing, but if you the people are the “real Government” as you say, then you need to take it over. The recent Minutemen success has proven that you can do this, and do it well. Your government has failed you, and your constitution provides for you to take it back in such an instance. If now isn’t such an instance, then there never will be one. Other lands might wail and gnash their teeth, but you'll be safer and healthier. Stop apologizing for thinking of yourself.

YOUR MEDIA: I don’t understand this area of America at all. They seem intent on anything and everything that belittles and destroys the foundations of your country. They never support your wars or your soldiers—at least not since Vietnam—and deliberately only cover stories that will turn the world against you and get your men killed. I come from a land in the Middle East where there is absolutely no freedom of the press, and I love America’s fearlessness in supporting a free press. But the balance isn’t there. They are so horribly skewed in favor of communism and even in favor of your Islamic enemy that they don’t even try to hide it. They are the ones who gave words such as “racist” and “sexist” too much power, and they throw them around like kids pitching balls. And you Americans seem to feel so guilty for said “racism” that you let them! It isn’t racist to call people who would kill you your enemy, nor is it racist to want to keep criminals out of your home. We often watch your news from (the nation where Alex now lives) and look at one another in amazement at the way your press seems to take pleasure in obliterating you. Why won’t you do something about this? They’re not the only ones with freedoms.

EDUCATION: Go to any major university and look at their roster of professors and graduate students in any of the sciences, engineering or math fields. You won’t find an American name in any of them, or at least very very few. They are all Chinese, Muslim or Indian…why? Because you aren’t just outsourcing your jobs, you are outsourcing your brains. You have all the makings of a major “brain drain” going on in your country. You have 300 million people in your land…why aren’t you raising your own scientists? You pay lip service to hating discrimination, yet so –called “positive discrimination” happens in your universities non-stop. Foreigners aren’t just given preference over Americans but are actually paid to learn! You think you can stop it? Your universities will never allow it, and here’s why. 1. A large number of their professors are foreign…the brain drain would devastate them. Research would collapse, and the Silicon Valley—which is a major contributor to most universities—would disintegrate since most of its workers are, you guessed it, Indian, Chinese and Muslim. 2. If they lower the number of foreign students, they risk becoming a pariah by signaling they don’t want foreigners there. This can either label them racist—apparently a death sentence in America—or go back to the problem mentioned in #1. It is a vicious cycle that no university wants to risk. 3. After 9/11, the FBI background checks hindered the foreign student’s ability to come to America. Your universities began to lose out in graduate school applicants to the more open and friendly European nations, and their outcry was deafening. They demanded dropping the background checks because it was hurting them. Screw America…it was all about them. So in 2002 Powell personally promised one of the Middle Eastern countries that he would expedite the process, and he quickly freed up hundreds of visas to this enemy of America. Your own general did this. He isn’t the only one; your own government courts students from enemy nations who willingly send them over to both learn and act as spies. All the while these enemy nations are making billions of dollars from their people working on their behalf in other nations. And all because America’s children want to go into liberal arts, drama, and interpretive dance. 4. As an example, India is quickly becoming prosperous, encouraging many Indians who had planned to live in America to return home. I know India is not your enemy, but the largest Islamic population is in India. You’d be wise to keep that in mind, especially with Microsoft setting up one of its largest institutions there. And it’s not only India. When the scientific leaders from any foreign nation leave, they take their knowledge and skills with them, hence the brain drain leaving America and the brain flood entering your enemies.

"Memo Warns of MS 13 Plans to Kill Police Officers"
team4news.com ^ | Oct 9, 2005 | Ray Pedraza

Posted on 10/26/2005 4:39:09 PM PDT by Mount Athos

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Federal agents believe they've intercepted intelligence from the notorious Mara Salvatruchas gang who seem to be planning to assassinate federal and local police in the coming days.

They have forwarded a safety memo to area authorities.

In the intelligence bulletin obtained by Action 4 News, a confidential informant in Virginia claims the Mara Salvatruchas have designated October 30 as "Kill A Law Enforcement Officer Day".

The memo cites the informant as someone who's provided reliable information in the past.

Reliable or not, Valley police aren't taking chances. In Hidalgo, chief Vernon Rosser believes everyone has their guard up."

Two al-Qaeda members killed: US

From correspondents in Washington
October 27, 2005

TWO al-Qaeda members, one a cell leader accused of taking part in at least three videotaped beheadings, have been killed in Iraq, the US military said.

The suspected cell leader was killed during a raid on a house in Mosul on Sunday, while the second al-Qaeda member, identified as Abu Du'a, was believed to have died in an air strike near Qaim in western Iraq overnight.

"Intelligence sources indicate that Abu Du'a, who helped Syrians and Saudis enter Iraq to intimidate and kill Iraqi citizens, was in the house at the time of the strike," the military said in a statement in Baghdad.

His body had not been recovered, but the air strike effectively destroyed the building, it said.

The US military identified the cell leader killed in Mosul as Nashwan Mijhim Muslet and said his chief of security, Nahi Achmed Obeid Sultan, or Abu Hassan, also died in the raid by US-led forces.

"Muslet, also known as Abu Tayir or Abu Zaid, was a senior operational al-Qaeda cell leader who operated specifically in the Mosul area," the military said.

It said he personally assisted in the beheadings of three Mosul citizens and that a number of beheadings by his cell were filmed to intimidate Iraqi citizens.......

Seeing your post got me thinking about Newark Airport. The first time I landed there I thought I was no longer in America. I heard just about every language being spoken. (It would be easy for diseases to be brought in there from other countries and instantly infect a lot of people!)
