Originally, three ships with 8 shipping containers each of radioactive waste and explosives were sent out from China. That equals 24 designated
targets with the likely destination America.
Logic seems to dictate that known terrorist cells already in place would be used. Al Qaeda is suspected of having sleeper cells here ready and
waiting for something.
Northeast Intelligence Network had a report on the al Qaeda Arabic internet forums and chat rooms on Sept. 24, 2008.
All of the reports are very informative.In light of the Deyanat we can re-consider this information.
Directives for Islamic Terrorist attacts in U.S. appear on the Internet
www.homelandsecurityus.com...
"Although the author appears to talk about a strike greater in magnitude than the 9/11 attacks and makes reference to the possibility of it being
nuclear in nature, the text references to the nuclear aspect of the attack appear somewhat muddled. In terms of the location of the attack, it is
clear that the author identifies both New York, as the financial capital of the U.S., and Washington, DC, as the nation’s capital, as being both
desirable and affected. It is interesting that under analysis, the details of “the attack” referenced by the author are nestled within the text of
instructions, rather than being prominently placed to serve as an overt warning as seen in the past. The relative subtlety in which the targets and
type of attack was referenced is most interesting from a historical and analytical perspective.What makes this post particularly interesting is the
limited number of replies to date – a total of three- despite the length of time it has been posted. Further, the replies in this case are general
blessings, such as “May Allah Bless You” and general wishes of support for the operation. Based on extensive research of historical posting
patterns over the last seven years suggest that this posting could be classified, recognized and acted upon as an order, as opposed to being a point
for further discussionThe commandments or directives are written as a set of instructions to an audience the author has divided into six groups as
follows, most if not all having some presence in the United States:
1. Muslim scholars, students, followers of Islam;
2. Various Islamic movements.
3. Islamic peoples not belonging to any specific movement.
4. “Dubai Islamic Emirate of the Caucasus” the Islamic State of Iraq and other jihadist movements;
5. Sleeper cells and potential recruits;
6. The general command of al Qaeda.
Various directives are issued to each of the groups referenced above, providing direction to each group on activities that need to be conducted before
and after “the” attack. For example, members of “sleeper cells” should immediately seek out those who are already activated – known by some
Islamic scholars and religious leaders – for further tactical advancement. In addition to the varied instructions within this post, there is an
additional directive that appears to serve as a worldwide activation order for Islamic terrorists to carryout maritime missions subsequent to the
attack, with the obvious intent on disrupting all major maritime supply routes.Instructions were given to jihadists in the following areas for such
operations:
"[T]he Philippines - Indonesia - Maldives - the coast of Yemen - the coast of Somalia - the coast of Chinguetti - and perhaps the coast of
Algeria;""The skyline of the Islamic many important straits and sea lanes that have articulated by the march of trade and military forces of
infidelity:""The Strait of Malacca between Malaysia and Sumatra, one of the most important corridors of the world trade.""[The] Torres Strait,
which lies between New Guinea and northern Australia..."
The fact that this addresses six different groups may be significant. The maritime reference is a revelation. The areas listed bear scrutiny.
