No Escape

Varied ^ | 10/03/04 | Varied

[JustPiper]

Welcome to NoE

An estimated 2,830 people died or are missing in the aftermath of the attack on the World Trade Center. Ninety-eight percent of those victims were at work, and the youngest was only 2 ½ years old. One in six - 494 - are reportedly either foreigners or Americans with dual citizenship, hailing from more than 90 countries. In the attack on the Pentagon, 189 were killed, and in a field in Pennsylvania, another 45 died when their plane plummeted to earth due to the efforts of a small group of heroes who wanted to avert another crash into a building full of people.

They had No Escape!!!





Whether they were in New York, Virginia or Pennsylvania, the victims and heroes of September 11 represented the diversity that is America and the world. All will be missed. None will be forgotten.

They had No Escape!!!









They had No Escape!!!

We believe everyone of you are our Nation's watch committee. We have learned this after nearly a year at Threat Matrix :Uncovering the Truth Since November 3, 2003-Threads One thru Nineteen

To me there has never been a finer group of caring Patriot's on the web, from every walk of life and of our home- FreeRepublic.com who after so many years is finally seeing results for all the thousand's of Freeper's hard work! We are being listened to. We are being heard!

So, please help. Keep an eye out for any links of organizations that may be related to terrorists and post your findings here. We will be around for a long time and we want the terrorists and jihadists to know this:

Wherever YOU are hiding we will find you- YOU will have No Escape!

Whatever rock your hiding under, we will remove it and YOU will have No Escape!

Whatever cave you are dwelling in, we will find you and YOU will have No Escape!

And whatever hidey hole you crawl out of, YOU will have No Escape!



Remember this, we too have a "Network", our resolve is no less determined than your's, except we have more resources and hundreds of us are working very hard to stay one step ahead of YOU. Where we are not, our brave men and women of the military are. Where our military is not, our Law Enforcement agents will find you. The border agents are waiting for you when you attempt to slither across our border's. Our special ops are, oops your bad, waiting around that corner you peer from. Our federal agents are armed with much more sophisticated equipment than you can ever acquire. And remember when all else fails, look up, something will be waiting to befall you! We have a saying in our country too and it is: "God does not like Ugly! And no one has more evil and ugly in their soulless
beings than you.

You are hereby put on notice, no matter how many city blocks, desert sands we must dig through, we will find every last one of you and he who laughs last does laugh best. You are outnumbered and God is on our side! WE will show No Mercy!

September 11, 2001 Victims

How best to honor them?
How best to carry on?

What the three of us are doing is not unique. The inspiration has been Terrorist Hunter's, analyist's and experts before us. This blog will be unique in the sense, that the three of us will not rest and
this is our way to...

Never Forget!

I could not do this alone, I want to acknowledge I would be lost without my sisters MamaDearest and Oorang, for without their many hours of hard work NoE would not be possible. We will go far my friends! And DrymansWife who is completely irreplaceable in a very important research project and who with her and "Dryman" we would be much further back. Also the Dryman's have hosted almost every picture you see here.

Our blog will contain our findings (well, not all of them ~smile), there are 'sensitive' things we are working on that will only be revealed if we know we can and at times our summations/analysis.

My personal Hero

Steven Emerson's Crusade
Why is a journalist pushing questionable stories from behind the scenes?

---

Steven Emerson openly discusses the frightening extent of the worldwide terrorist network in the United States. Now serving as NBC’s terrorism analyst, Mr. Emerson is an expert on terrorism and national security and is recognized as one of the foremost authorities in the world on militant Islamic terrorism. With information on terrorist cells operating from Boston to San Diego on behalf of bin Laden, Hamas and Hizzbollah, Mr. Emerson provides mesmerizing first hand accounts of secret terrorist meetings, training, recruitment and above all else--deception of law enforcement and the media.

As a correspondent and author who serves as the Executive Director of The Investigative Project, Mr. Emerson has appeared frequently on network television, including NBC, MSNBC, CNN, etc. and has been quoted or cited hundreds of times in the nation’s top newspapers. Mr. Emerson has also given numerous briefings to Congress, the White House, the Justice Department and other federal agencies.

Mr. Emerson's newest book is American Jihad, The Terrorists Living Among Us (Simon and Schuster, 2002). He has authored or co-authored four other books: Terrorist: The Inside Story of the Highest-Ranking Iraqi Terrorist Ever to Defect to the West (Villard/Random House, 1991); The Fall of Pan Am 103: Inside the Lockerbie.

My personal Heroine

The Terrorist Hunter Speaks
An amazing story of an Iraqi Jew at the heart of dismantling terrorism.

---

Site Institute

Ms. Katz talked about her book, Terrorist Hunter: The Extraordinary Story of a Woman Who Went Undercover to Infiltrate the Radical Islamic Groups Operating in America, published by Ecco. Ms. Katz, who had originally had the book published anonymously, talked about growing up in Iraq and the course that led her to become a terrorism investigator in the United States. She argued that there are many front groups in the U.S. that funnel money to Muslim terrorist organizations overseas. Ms. Katz also talked about the reach of groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, the influence of Saudi Arabia, and the way the Internet is used to recruit future terrorists.

Rita has been interrogated,investigated and it is an affront to everyone doing this non-profit job of hitting terrorist's where it counts the most, where it will hurt the most!

JJ, then it has served the purpose, sorry to rattle you, but when designing this blog and our business for research, I wanted it to be poignant enough for folks to see why we need to research/investigate all those wishing to do us harm. We have been discovering much in the past few months, so many dots connecting and we will be bringing what we can in regards to how it starts in the ME, leads here and ricochets back again. How so many organizations, mosques, conferences, etc all lead to other umbrella groups, banks, investment companies etc. It is astounding!

So please, especially in your line of work, if you see anything relevant to finances in any form for extremists,jihadis etc, please post it here ok?

[JustPiper]

Thank you sweetie, NoE is a separate entity from TM and different in the sense, well you know what we do
~wink

Also, I know you'll make grand contributions to this research

[JustPiper]

Well, with your hours of research I trust you to start posting some of the interesting things you've uncovered and then some!

[JustPiper]

Kudos to you for the months of how you contribted to getting us here and all the dots you've been connecting! I know the group will be very interested in seeing what you've uncovered!

[JustPiper]

We need people to read our entire intro page so there is no misunderstanding this project is a completely separate being from TM. We post research, or anything relevant to what is outlined in our intro.

We are interested in the sites/articles etc that connect the dots, show money exchanging hands or businesses etc. We know the type of sleuthing/researching we've been doing but need to make it understandable so all our friends know where we have been and where we are going. Help M'Dear!

This blog has nothing to do with TM folks, except for the facts we know that TM'rs are the best researchers there are and after almost a year of hunting down stories, we know TM'rs can contribute greatly here , as well as TM.

From a Virtual Shadow, Messages of Terror

SAN FRANCISCO -- He calls himself Abu Maysara al Iraqi, or father of Maysara the Iraqi, and he's a master at being everywhere and nowhere in the virtual world, constantly switching his online accounts and taking advantage of new technologies to issue his communiqués to the world.

American Internet sleuths know next to nothing about him, whether Abu Maysara is his real name, whether he's an Iraqi or even whether he's in Iraq. What is clear is that he is one of the most important sources of information from the country's insurgency, getting his message out through the Internet, and U.S. authorities are trying to silence him.

Money Printed by Terrorist Organizations Gain Support

November 8, 2001 Posted: 2:10 a.m. EST (710 GMT)


(CNN2) An astounding new development in the war against terrorism surfaced today, in the form of new american currency.

A large number of counterfeit five and ten dollar bills have entered circulation recently, bearing the profile of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in the place traditionally held by a US president. When asked to remark on the development at a press conference today, secretary of state Colin Powell replied "This is a true mark of the effectiveness of [President] Bush's strategy in the War on Terrorism. Having effectively disabled the terrorists' financial assests, he has forced them to printing their own, counterfeit, money, in order to continue to fund their evil deeds."

Rita Jenkins, a supermarket cashier in Duncan, Ohio seemed to be unphased by the new currency. "I never noticed the fake money, until one of my customers mentioned it this afternoon. I just figured it was some more of those new bills that they keep coming out with recently. Frankly, I find the differences between bin Laden's face, and that Lincoln guy to be pretty minor."

Five hundred and thirty dollars of the false currency was found in her register alone.


President Bush seemed puzzled as to what his action should be, in light of this new development. "Well, on one hand, the money is wrong, immoral, and illegal," the president told reporters. "However, it should be recognized that this influx of cash into the american economy, along with my continued refunds and aid packages, could be just the stimulus that we need to get us out of this recession. You have to admit, those terrorists sure are spending a lot of money."

So far, as much as $230,000 of the counterfeit money has been recovered. At least a third of that amount has reportedly been used to purchase doses of the drug Cipro.

In related news, Italian news agencies reported that the government had frozen bank accounts linked to seven people in Washington, including former president George W. Bush Sr., claiming "irrefutable" links to past funding of the organizations connected with the Taleban government. The individuals involved were unavailable for comment.

Thanks to me Barb Olson was the epitome of why we are fighting, along with thousands of victims and their surviving families and then our safety as a nation. She would have fought, she cared about exposing crooked people and would have been exposing terrorists had she not died that day.

A few tidbits regarding this today:

Dr. Corsi (Unfit for Command) To Reveal Democrats Connection to The Terror Masters of Iran!
Student Movement Coordinating Committee For Democracy In Iran ^ | 10.4.2004 |
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1234535/posts
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The government of Iran is brutal and sympathetic to terrorists.

One well-connected Iranian-American has been a member of organizations urging the US to re-establish diplomatic ties with the Iranian Regime. This man is intimately involved at the very highest levels of American politics.

How well-connected is he to the "evil" regime in Tehran?

It's not just a matter of politics. Now it's a matter of law.

The "Student Movement Coordination Committee for Democracy in Iran" (SMCCDI), was founded in the latter part of the Persian calendar year 1376 (1997) by a group of political activists and students who believe and desire the national-populist and secular fundaments, and who desire a modern and intellectual state.

From the beginning, the organization and its members based one of their most important strategies upon stating the truth as a rule, regardless of self-interest (even if it were to cost the short term enmity or disagreement of some of the regime’s opposition who had in practice forgotten their main duty and had been looking towards the reformists within the regime hoping for change).

SITE Institute Director Rita Katz, Quoted by the Washington Post

On Saturday, October 3, The Washington Post featured SITE Institute translations and quoted Director Rita Katz in a story on terrorist insurgent Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's use of the internet.

See excerpts of the article below, or read the entire article by clicking here.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A1570-2004Oct1.html?sub=new

Rita Katz, director of the SITE Institute, a nonprofit group in the District that monitors terrorist sites for the federal government, said she believed that without the Internet, Zarqawi's group would not be as revered as it is today. "Zarqawi has progressed tremendously over the past two years," she said, "and I think that the Internet contributes very much to his reputation."

In some chat rooms, Abu Maysara and his collaborators are hailed as heroes.

On Sept. 22, after he announced the beheading of Eugene "Jack" Armstrong, 52, a native of Hillsdale, Mich., dozens of people on one Web site thanked him and Zarqawi.

"I love you, I love you, O slaughtering Sheikh!" one person wrote, according to a translation by the SITE Institute. Another said that he would "pray to Allah that He protect you, O Mujahideen of Iraq."

In the past, Katz said, Abu Maysara seemed to ignore them, but in recent days Katz noticed something that was either a remarkable coincidence or a change in Abu Maysara's habits.

In a posting on Sept. 22 at 3:46 a.m., time zone unspecified, a person calling himself Nimr suggested that the group make Kenneth Bigley, the 62-year-old British citizen who had been kidnapped with Armstrong and another American, Jack Hensley, 48, of Marietta, Ga., beg for his life to the "tyrant."

A few days later, a clip appeared on the Web site with a distraught Bigley pleading to British Prime Minister Tony Blair to save him.

Everyone remember the Muslim Youth Day held at the New Jersey Six Flags Amusement Park last month?

http://www.icnanj.org/sixflags/

http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/news/09192004_nw_muslimyouth.html

Something that piqued my curiosity, considering this was a day of "rides and fun" for the children, was the list of guest speakers:

Chief Guests/Speakers at six flags
Imam Zaid Shakir
Dr. Ingrid Mattson
W. D. Mohammad

Let's take a look at these individuals and again ask ourselves just why were they speaking at a children's event.

Iman Zaid Shakir
Shakir is an American born African-American convert to Islam. Born in Berkley,CA and raised in different states, mainly in the ghetto's, Shakir is a devotee of Malcom X. Shakir often speaks at colleges and universities as well as different muslim youth groups.

Here is a link to a site where, at the top of the page, there is a Malcolm X video where Shakir speaks:
http://studentorgs.utexas.edu/msa/resources.html

This is an excerpt from a 2002 interview with Zaid Shakir: "EXCERPT OF SHAKIR ON TAPE: One of the miraculous things associated with Islam is that this civilizational genus in Islam can manifest itself anywhere. And we can make this Islam manifest itself right here in the United States of America so that when people look back in history, they can talk about the Islamic civilization of America."

Link to entire interview:
http://www.pbs.org/now/transcript/transcript101_full.html

If anyone is interested in reading more about Iman Zaid Shakir a google search will provide a great deal of info.

Dr. Ingrid Mattson
Ingrid Mattson is a Canadian born convert is Islam. From 1987-1988 she lived in Pakistan. She is vice president of the Islamic Society of North America and a professor of Islamic studies at Hartford Seminary in Connecticut.

Excerpt from a very interesting article (March 2004):
"Though Dr. Ingrid Mattson appears moderate, she is insidious precisely because she maintains that façade while steadfastly refusing to criticize radical Islamists, claiming that there is no such thing as Wahhabism and that the term "Islamic terrorism" should not be used in the media. Most shocking of all, though, is how little concern she expressed about suicide bombings in an essay she wrote shortly after 9/11."
http://www.jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/001332.php

After reading a considerable amount about Dr. Mattson I believe she is a apologist for wahhabism. This is but one indication of such:
http://www.thewahhabimyth.com/intellectuals.htm

In 2002 the Southern Baptist Council and Rev. Jerry Falwell had some things to say about Islam (I am neither a baptist nor a follower of Rev. Falwell although IMO they do hit the nail on the head. Just disseminating information here. ).
Excerpt from linked article about Dr. Ingrid Mattson's reaction:
The usual suspects gathered to condemn the Baptists for their excessive Christianity, and according to CNN, Ingrid Mattson, vice president of the Islamic Society of North America and a professor of Islamic studies at Hartford Seminary in Connecticut, called the comments "medieval." She said statements like this from such high-placed religious leaders can lead to violence against Muslims.

"It makes me wonder what's the hateful religion right now that we should be worried about," said Dr. Mattson

http://www.vdare.com/fulford/prophet_loss.htm

W.D. Mohammed
http://home.att.net/~spmckee/people_muhammadwd.html
One could spend an enormous amount of time researching W.D. Mohammed. W.D., like Zaid Shakir, has roots in the Malcom X movement. W.D. Mohammed's father, Elijah Muhammad, is one of the originators of recruiting black men in prison to islam. He was also one of the leaders of the Nation of Islam. Here is Elijah Muhammad's bio:
http://www.gale.com/free_resources/bhm/bio/muhammad_e.htm"

This article is, IMO, interesting, but rather brutal. The beginning is about the father (Elijah), and read to the end about W.D.
http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Olympus/4222/noi4.html

At some point W.D. Mohammed split from the Nation of Islam and denounced much that his father stood for. Later W.D. reunited with Malcolm X. Now, just to mention both sides of what I've found, there are quite a few muslim sites that commend W.D. Mohammed as being a leader of the "peaceful side of islam". But, I remain suspicious about the "peaceful" side of Islam as I haven't seen much, if any, of it.

If one is interested there is much more information on line regarding all three of these individuals. I have tried to give just a bit about each and as this post is entirely too long as it is I will leave with just this question:
What was the purpose of these three "controversial" individuals speaking at a children's day at the amusement park?
