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.

I was going to say "I wonder if she is a liberal listner to the KGO Ray Talifero radio program?"

If so, that explains it all. Hands out or taking what they think they are entitled to. Far from good (or remotely good) role models for America's children.

Hinrichs (OU Suicide Bomber) Tried To Buy Ammonium Nitrate
KOCO TV ^


Posted on 10/04/2005 6:11:44 PM CDT by hispanarepublicana


NORMAN, Okla. -- The general manager of a Norman feed store said Tuesday that Joel Henry Hinrichs III had inquired about purchasing a significant amount of ammonium nitrate, the primary ingredient used in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

Dustin Ellison, the general manager of Ellison Feed & Seed on Porter Avenue, said that a man matching Hinrichs' description had come into the store days before he blew himself up on OU's campus. Ellison said the man asked about ammonium nitrate, but couldn't offer a reason why he needed it.

After the bombing, Ellison said he thought nothing of it. However, when he saw Hinrichs' photo, it triggered his memory.

To this point, authorities still suggest Hinrichs' only motive for blowing himself up was suicide. The FBI released a statement Tuesday evening saying that "there is no known link between Hinrichs and any terrorist or extremist organization(s) or activities."

The release also indicated that the FBI believes there is "no known current threat posed by any additional explosive materials."

Ellison noted that his store doesn't carry ammonium nitrate any longer after recent legislation required new paperwork for stores to sell the product.

Stay tuned to Eyewitness News 5 for further details.

Europe's Muslims: In a Prison's Halls, the Call to Islam

MILAN, Italy-The guards, heavy brass keys swinging from their

labyrinthine Bollate prison as the Muslim call to prayer echoes in
the corridors. Prisoners rush to the makeshift mosques that have

"Dad: Oklahoma student bomber wasn't politically motivated"
Tuesday, October 4, 2005; Posted: 12:41 p.m. EDT (16:41 GMT) NORMAN, Oklahoma (AP) --
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The father of a University of Oklahoma student who committed suicide outside a packed football stadium using explosives said Monday his son didn't intend to harm anyone else or push a political agenda.

Joel Henry Hinrichs III, 21, died Saturday when a device attached to his body exploded about 8 p.m. while he sat on a bench, officials said.

The blast could be heard inside the stadium less than 100 yards away where more than 80,000 people attended OU's game against Kansas State.

Joel Hinrichs Jr. said that his son did not leave a suicide note and that FBI agents told him hydrogen peroxide was used to construct the bomb."

Don't need ammonium nitrate to commit suicide?

Is that what you're saying? You don't believe the MSM?

LOL /sarcasm

Really, there has got to be more to this story than what meets the eye. His history and looks btw are very much like Johnny Jihad Lindh. So many young people are being brainwashed by these fruitcake islamists not to mention some of the college professors.

"ERRORISM: SECOND EDITION OF AL-QAEDA NEWS BULLETIN AIRS"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Rome, 4 Oct. (AKI) - The second edition of 'Sout al Khalifa', or Voice of the Caliphate, the 'news bulletin' produced by al-Qaeda mouthpiece the Global Islamic Media Front, has been broadcast on the Internet. The latest programme, which lasts around 19 minutes, opens with news from Palestine, and dedicates lengthy coverage to the kidnapping and killing of Sasson Nuriel, the Israeli businessman seized by a cell of the Palestinian militant group Hamas. The bulletin replays the video showing the hostage and repeats the allegation that he was a member of the Israeli security services.

The 'newsreader' - who has a subtle Egyptian accent and appears to be the same as appeared in the first edition aired on 21 September - then goes on to speak of the security situation in Gaza, which is described as highly volatile because of the Israeli air strikes.

The al-Qaeda bulletin also dedicates time to the last video featuring al-Qaeda second-in-command Ayman al-Zawahiri and talks of Afghanistan and the suicide attack carried out last week by a Taliban bomber who drove a motorbike into a group of Afghan soldiers boarding a bus outside their training base in Kabul."

"Jailed Islamic cleric calls blasts a warning"

Published Tuesday, October 4, 2005

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "BALI, Indonesia (AP) - A Muslim cleric jailed for the 2002 Bali bombings said today the latest attacks on the tropical island were a warning from God, and the blasts triggered security scares and travel alerts.

Indonesia, meanwhile, resisted pressure to outlaw the shadowy militant group suspected in Saturday’s bombings at three crowded restaurants that killed 22 people and wounded 104.

Suspicious packages were found at six embassies in Malaysia - including Canada, Germany and Thailand - forcing evacuations and the closure of the Japanese mission. The parcels, which threatened retaliation for injustices against Muslims, were later dismissed as a hoax.

Australia warned of more possible attacks on Bali, pinpointing a popular entertainment district just north of the weekend suicide bombings as one target."
