Two Suspected Secret Cell Terrorists Detained by Coalition Forces
BAGHDAD, Iraq Coalition Forces detained two suspected Secret Cell terrorists before dawn on Thursday in Baghdad. It is believed that the terrorists are members of the Special Groups affiliated with Jaysh al-Mahdi, the terror group active in Baghdad and believed to be responsible for numerous attacks on Iraqi civilians as well as Coalition Forces in Baghdad.
Coalition Forces conducted the raid to capture or kill terrorists who allegedly specialize in kidnapping, killing and building and placing improvised explosive devices. Intelligence reports indicate that the suspected terrorists targeted during the raid are associated with key leaders in the secret cell terrorist network and have ties to Iranian terrorists groups. Coalition Forces also confiscated AK-47s and pistols from the suspected terrorists.
During the operation, terrorists fired upon Coalition Forces with a Rocket Propelled Grenade (RPG) and hit a house causing undetermined damage. Coalition Forces engaged the RPG team, who fled the area. There were no known casualties from the RPG attack.
Coalition troops will continue to target the terrorists who create fear and chaos in Iraq by killing innocent Iraqis and targeting Coalition Forces, said Maj. Marc Young, an MNF-I spokesperson. We remain committed to stopping the Iranian influence which serves to terrorize and destabilize Iraq.

A member of an American Airlines flight crew reported a suspicious passenger on flight 136, which took off from Los Angeles’ LAX airport and was bound for London’s Heathrow airport, according to TSA spokeswoman Andrea McCauley.
McCauley said the flight was canceled and all passengers have been off-loaded in New York.
A passenger boarded the plane after getting off an employee bus without proper identification, according to broadcast reports.

“My Cyber Counter-jihad”

Middle East Quarterly
Summer 2007

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE
Office of the Spokesman
This information is current as of today, Thu Jul 12 2007 05:10:54 GMT-0700.
Worldwide Caution
April 10, 2007
This Public Announcement updates information on the continuing threat of terrorist actions and violence against Americans and interests overseas. This supersedes the Worldwide Caution dated October 11, 2006 and expires on October 9, 2007.
The Department of State remains concerned about the continued threat of terrorist attacks, demonstrations and other violent actions against U.S. citizens and interests overseas. Current information suggests that al-Qaida and affiliated organizations continue to plan terrorist attacks against U.S. interests in multiple regions, including Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. These attacks may employ a wide variety of tactics to include assassinations, kidnappings, hijackings and bombings.
Ongoing events in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East have resulted in demonstrations and associated violence in several countries. Americans are reminded that demonstrations and rioting can occur with little or no warning.
In August 2006, British authorities arrested a significant number of extremists engaged in a plot to destroy multiple passenger aircraft flying from the United Kingdom to the United States. The September 2006 attack on the U.S. Embassy in Syria and the March 2006 bombing near the U.S. Consulate in Karachi, Pakistan illustrate the continuing desire of extremists to strike American targets.
Extremists may elect to use conventional or non-conventional weapons, and target both official and private interests. The bomb attacks targeting buses carrying foreign workers in March 2007 and December 2006 in Algeria, a series of bombings in Thailand in May and September 2006 that targeted commercial and tourist destinations in the far south, and the bombings in the the Egyptian resort town of Dahab in April 2006 all illustrate how terrorists exploit vulnerabilities associated with soft targets. Additional examples of such targets include high-profile sporting events, residential areas, business offices, clubs, restaurants, places of worship, schools, public areas and locales where Americans gather in large numbers, including during holidays. Financial or economic targets of value may also be considered as possible venues; the vehicle-based suicide attack on an oil facility near Mukalla and Marib in Yemen in September 2006 and the failed attack on the Abqaiq oil processing facility in Saudi Arabia in late February 2006 are such examples.
In the wake of the August 2006 plot against aircraft in London, numerous terrorist attacks on trains in India in 2006, the July 2005 London Underground bombings, and the March 2004 train attacks in Madrid, Americans are reminded of the potential for terrorists to attack public transportation systems. In addition, extremists may also select aviation and maritime services as possible targets.
U.S. citizens are strongly encouraged to maintain a high level of vigilance, be aware of local events, and take the appropriate steps to bolster their personal security. For additional information, please refer to A Safe Trip Abroad found at http://travel.state.gov .
U.S. Government facilities worldwide remain at a heightened state of alert. These facilities may temporarily close or periodically suspend public services to assess their security posture. In those instances, U.S. embassies and consulates will make every effort to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens. Americans abroad are urged to monitor the local news and maintain contact with the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate.
As the Department continues to develop information on any potential security threats to U.S. citizens overseas, it shares credible threat information through its Consular Information Program documents, available on the Internet at http://travel.state.gov . In addition to information on the Internet, travelers may obtain up-to-date information on security conditions by calling 1-888-407-4747 toll-free in the U.S. or outside the U.S. and Canada on a regular toll line at 1-202-501-4444.

I wouldn’t be too sure, if you check a few of the other posters they have other dates, perhaps generic or when the actual film came out? AQ have issued so many ultimatums/dates when it comes to Europe and Iraq that i’ll simply believe it when i see it.
IE: Europes 3 month deadline which was what, 3 years ago?
Taken with a grain of salt.

Wowser, that is the quickest turn around from the Al-Z on an event in a while.
Agreed, his messengers are surely working overtime these days. but I suppose with a net connection in his lair it’s as simple as making a lypsynching video and slapping it on youtube. I too was surprised with the speed though.
I’m like you: on high alert for coded messages, especially when they start coming out with more frequency. I don’t see it in that phrase, though.
They have said there would be a lot of silence before an attack, if that’s the case we have a long time to wait he has become a chatterbox lately!

Shouldn’t a control tower always be guarded? Especially in this day and age, even if you have a homer simpson-esque guard behind a bunch of cameras monitoring i can’t see an airport’s control tower being totally unattended. Is this weird to anybody else also?

Ignore my prior ping to same MEQ article.
Way ahead of me as usual...
