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.

More Details Emerge in N.Y. Mosque Sting

"Time to take the war to America and Israel" -- and a link to Mullah Krekar in New York. Aref and Hossein update from AP, with thanks to Nicolei:

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Two Muslim men caught up in an anti-terrorism sting operation pleaded innocent Friday as details emerged about 10 new charges against them.
Yassin Aref and Mohammed Hossain were accused Thursday of attempting to provide support to Jaish-e-Mohammed, a Pakistan-based group listed by the federal government as a terrorist organization. Aref, who leads a mosque, also was charged with lying to federal officials.

The pair were initially charged in August 2004 with conspiring to launder money and promoting terrorism. They now face a total of 30 charges.

Entered as new evidence against Aref were entries in his personal journals that prosecutors say link him to Mullah Krekar, the founder of Ansar al-Islam, a terrorist group that U.S. authorities contend has ties to al-Qaida and has been responsible for attacks on American forces in the Middle East.

One of the entries stated it was time to ``take the war to America and Israel,'' Assistant U.S. Attorney William Pericak said.

A memorandum filed by prosecutors also includes reference to a poem prosecutors say was written by Aref in December 1999 that read: ``Raise the Jihad sword ... Raise the Koran with blood ... So we can bring back the freedom for ourselves and the entire people of this Earth.''

"Freedom for ourselves and the entire people of this Earth." Yet the learned analysts will tell you this is all a reaction to American foreign policy, and that the jihadists will leave us alone if we leave them alone. In fact, this sounds much more like an echo of the Pakistani jihad theorist Syed Abul Ala Maududi's dictum that unbelievers have no right to wield political power anywhere, and that if they do, Muslims must work to dislodge them from that power.

The written materials ``compel the conclusion that Mr. Aref espouses and has adopted the goals of terrorist organizations and has had an ongoing relationship with terrorist organizations,'' U.S. Magistrate Judge David Homer said. ``It seems the government's case is extremely enhanced.''
He revoked Aref's bail but allowed Hossain to remain free.

Aref's lawyer, Terence Kindlon, had argued his client's writings were merely notes he made describing what he heard visitors to his home in Syria talking about. He said Aref had only briefly met Mullah Krekar when Aref worked as a ``glorified janitor'' at offices of the Islamic Movement in Kurdistan, an organization alleged to be an armed movement seeking an Islamic government in Iraq.

Isn't it funny how there are so many coincidences of this kind? "Yes, I met that jihad terrorist, but we only discussed auto repair." Etc.

"Federal judge says illegal aliens’ privacy trumps public’s right to know"

That's akin to the pre-911 MO preventing spooks from visiting mosques and preventing the FBI from obtaining hard drives from suspect computers. Pure stupidity. Afterall, we don't know what the illegal aliens are harboring...

This is not the first time this has happened at security facilities.

Will we ever learn?

Thanks Oorang. Sometimes you gotta go back, there are so many fabulous links and so much information back there.

On the BOLO page there is also a great link to a place you can get emergency equipment of all kinds.

>> "The Brady Campaign to Control Gun Violence is warning foreign tourists that they may be in danger if they visit Florida. The politically active gun-control group is warning Europeans that a new Florida gun law will increase the likelihood that tourists will be shot in the streets if Americans believe their safety is being threatened. The Brady group is spending big bucks in their attempt to hurt Florida's economy. And they are lying to do it." <<

Thanks for the info Cindy. It reminds us that we do indeed have enemies foreign and DOMESTIC.

I work with woman from Russia. She refuses to even be around a firearm. They've trained them well in Europe.

Freedom and Responsibility go hand it hand. Firearms and Freedom also go hand in and. Connecting the dots as we do here at TM, Responsibility and Firearms also go hand in hand.

We have FAR too many liberals in this country that don't want the RESPONSIBILITY that goes with Freedom. They are willing to sacrifice their freedom AND MINE to fore go that responsibility.

"Small Amounts of Bacteria Found During Protests Last Weekend"
Updated: Saturday, Oct. 1, 2005 - 2:23 PM

Mark Segraves, WTOP Radio
Sara D'Angelo, WTOP Radio

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "WASHINGTON - Small amounts of bacteria detected in the District during last weekend's war protests are not harmful and probably occurred naturally, say officials from the D.C. Department of Health.

D.C. Health Director Dr. Gregg Pane tells WTOP Radio that the bio-watch collectors, operated by the Department of Homeland Security, tested positive for a small amount of Tularemia last weekend during the protests on the National Mall."

ARTICLE SNIPPET #2 "According to the CDC, Tularemia, also known as "rabbit fever," can be treated with antibiotics. The CDC warns, however, that it is possible to use Tularemia as a bioweapon."

It's probably very beautiful there, but I don't understand why people continue to go to Bali considering the danger.
