View Full Version : Are they blowing smoke, or warning their enemies (per the Koran)?

Those of you who've studied jihadis and their beliefs and tactics know that they are commanded to warn their enemies before they strike. We've technically been receiving warnings from zawahiri and osama with the recent releases of tapes from them.

Nuclear Threats : MUSLIMS ORDERED TO LEAVE THE UNITED STATES, NEXT ATTACK IMMINENT


...ACCORDING TO AL QAEDA COMMANDER

"We have a different plan for the next attack. You will see. Americans will hardly find out any Muslim names, after the next attack. Most of our brothers are living in Western countries, with Jewish and Christian names, with passports of Western countries. This time, someone with the name of Muhammad Atta will not attack inside America, it would be some David, Richard or Peter."--Abu Dawood

Exclusive to the Northeast Intelligence Network & CanadaFree Press.com

By Dr. Paul L. Williams & David Dastych

Urgent news from Abu Dawood, the newly appointed commander of the al Qaeda forces in Afghanistan:

* Final preparations have been made for the American Hiroshima, a major attack on the U. S.

* Muslims living in the United States should leave the country without further warning.

* The attack will be commandeered by Adnan el Shukrijumah (“Jaffer Tayyer” or “Jafer the Pilot”), a naturalized American citizen, who was raised in Brooklyn and educated in southern Florida.

* The al Qaeda operatives who will launch this attack are awaiting final orders. They remain in place in cities throughout the country. Many are masquerading as Christians and have adopted Christian names.

* Al Qaeda and the Taliban will also launch a major strike (known as the “Badar offensive” against the coalition forces in Afghanistan during the holy month of Ramadan.

* The American people will be treated to a final audio message from Osama bin Laden which will be aired within the next two weeks.

The announcements from Abu Dawood were obtained by Hamid Mir, the only journalist to interview Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri, and Taliban leader Mullah Omar in the wake of 9/11. Mir earlier reports regarding the resurgence of the Taliban with support from Iran and an unofficial truce between President Pervez Musharraf and al Qaeda have been panned out by the press in recent months.

Mr. Mir interviewed Dawood on September 12 at the tomb of Sultan Mehmud Ghaznawi on the outskirts of Kabul. Dawood and the al Qaeda leaders who accompanied him were clean-shaven and dressed as Western reporters. The al Qaeda commandeer had contacted Mir by cell-phone to arrange the meeting. The contents of the encounter are as follows:

Q: How did you have my local mobile number?

A: We watched you on Geo TV walking in the mountains near Kabul with British troops. You were embedded with our enemies. We were sure that you are staying in one of the few hotels or guest houses in Kabul. We were looking for you in Serena and Intercontinental hotels, but then some Taliban friends informed us that they had your phone number and you might visit them in Zabul [an Afghani province]. We got your number from Commander [Muhsen] Khayber. [Khayber was responsible for a homicide bombing in Casablanca that killed 32 people]. Don’t worry about that. We will not make any harm to you. We just want to warn you that you better don’t take any rides in the tanks and humvis of the Western Forces; they are not safe for any journalist in Afghanistan.

Now comes this recent confirmation regarding illegals crossing our borders with KI tablets (also known as Potassium Iodate), which protects (to a certain degree) one's organs from radiation poisoning...as in, NUCLEAR radiation.

*18 September 2006: In an article provided exclusively to the Northeast Intelligence Network and Canada Free Press by Dr. Paul Williams and Mr. David Dastych on Saturday, “final preparations have been made for the next major attack on the US” identified as “American Hiroshima,” suggesting the attack will be nuclear in nature. Since we published that report, confidential sources in law enforcement positions have privately confirmed to the Northeast Intelligence Network that a "disturbing trend" is being reported on both of our borders – a pattern that is consistent with a potential nuclear attack scenario against the US. According to these sources, a "significant and alarming number" of illegal aliens attempting entry into the US, caught by border patrol agents, have been found to be carrying Potassium Iodide tablets, which are used to protect against exposure to radiation in emergency situations.*

According to our sources, the illegal aliens who have been caught have been described as OTMs (other-than Mexicans), and consist primarily of Chinese and Iranian nationals on our southern border, and Asians and others from a variety of Middle Eastern countries at the US-Canadian border. Law enforcement sources providing this information to the Northeast Intelligence Network agreed that this is “a very recent phenomena,” but one that has increased to “alarming levels” and is of particular concern to government officials.

*NOTE: An astute and well-educated reader accurately points out that Potassium Iodate, also referred to as KI, protects only one organ in the body (the thyroid) from ONE form of radiation (I-131). And it does so only if a person takes the tablet BEFORE (or just after) being exposed to I-131, as the KI fills up the thyroid gland with "good" salt instead of the radioactive version.

Too many people nationwide already falsely believe that KI is a so-called "anti-radiation" pill that will protect them from all forms of radiation. If a person takes the tablet and fails to leave/evacuate a radioactive area, they will still be exposed to radiation and will likely become ill or even die from radiation sickness. Further, Gamma radiation, (the type of radiation that killed so many people in Nagasaki and Hiroshima, Japan, after the atomic blasts in 1945) is deadly; Potassium Iodate offers no protection on this type of nuclear radiation.

So, should we get nuked, how do you'll think the best way to respond would be given that Al Queda is constantly hiding in mountains? Nuking them back wouldn't seem to do much imo. I say bring on the goodies from Area 51 and use'em and show the world what we're made of :D

What kind of goodies other than "turn the face of the planet into a sheet of glass" do we have? That would seem to be a pretty damned good one.

Besides, they can retreat into the hole. They just can't come out for a couple hundred years...

It would be a whole lot cheaper to just fund some illegal crossings and require them only to carry KI tablets in return for passage ;)

So all the Muslims leave the US? Sounds like our last days will at least be peaceful!

But seriously, I'm sick and tired of the United States acting in a reactive role. It's time we get a little proactive on this. Blatant threats made like this should be handled as if the incident already took place. I've never said this before because I would only want to as a last resort, but we should back our people out of the area and give that place a cleansing. I couldn't really care less what anyone else's opinion is anymore and the civilian casualties would be more than worth it. If those countires don't like it, get out when we do. They should have nipped it in the butt when Al Qeada was a cub scout group instead of pretending like they didn't know what was going on.

This a lot of crap IMO and even if it isn't Homeland Security is all over it. The scenario that they are hinting at is a dirty bomb scenario which is a conventional explosive that scatters radioactive nuclear waste over a wide area when it goes off.

If something like this does happen then I am all for what we should have done in the first place with Afghanistan...

"You have Bin Laden, you got 24 hours to hand him over..."

24 hours go by with no Bin Laden

Tactical nuclear strike on Afghanistan city.

Repeat


No one had the guts to do this shit the first time. Now he's hiding in Pakistan and all indications are that they aren't even really looking for him anymore and we are too chickenshit to do anything about it. Substitute Pakistan in my method above and you'll see how I would prefer we deal with the aftermath of such an attack. I'm with Denny, I could give a rat's ass about their civilians, I'm tired of seeing them on TV acting like they are civilized. They aren't civilized, they are fucking animals and the sooner we treat them like animals the sooner this whole thing is going to end.

The next major attack will be something like a dirty bomb blown up in the downtown area of a large city. Make a 3 mile radius uninhabitable for 30 years. If they did that in front of the NASDAQ office building, that would shut down our economy for a few weeks more than likely.

You wanna copy of my list? On top of things like that, I firmly believe that everyone should stay up with their vaccinations/immunizations, be AT LEAST First Aid/CPR trained (first responder's level at a minimum), have an adequate supply of water, non-perishable goods, portable electricity, a large First Aid kit, weaponry/defense tools, and an emergency response plan (including contacts, evacuation routes, and communiction), and cash. I'm not just saying all this because of recent events, but because it should be in place anyway.

On top of all that's listed above on what you need to know/have, it would be a wise thing to learn about your environment and how to pull/use your resources from there first hand. For example: subsistence farming, tapping natural water supplies, hunting, etc.

I know this sounds like some back-woods-militia-paranoia thing, but who would have thought things would have come as far as they have already? Honestly, I never dreamed of people hijacking planes and flying them into heavily populated buildings before 9/11. Just don't be caught off-guard, but you don't have to spend every extra penny you got and stock up; nor do you have to live in a constant fear. If either the case, then the terrorists have already won.

I feel the same way. As long as we worry about being politically correct and trying to appease the UN, we will never be able to defeat these loons. The problem with beating them is the fact that they blend in with the normal peaceful people so you never know who to take out. Now they are trying to do the same thing over here. If that happens, we're screwed.

Apparently, the peacful muslims are sympathetic to them too. How often do you see them condeming what the extremist are saying or doing? Yet, you see them demonstrating against the US quite often. I don't like to kill innocent bystanders, but as far as I'm concerned, all is fair in love and war. If there has to be collateral damage, then so be it.

Why not start a list in this thread... not everyone will see it, but then again, not everyone will care. Whether you're staying put or going for the "bug out" kit, there are definitely some essentials. You could put all of these things in a waterproof ammo box in your closet:

Ammo (defense and/or hunting)
Fire (matches/bic lighters)
The ability to purify water
Leatherman
Maybe a larger knife also
LED flashlight(s)
Duct tape
First aid kit
Maybe some rope or Paracord 550#
Mylar solar blanket
MRE's / meal replacement bars

For a more permanent solution (ie. turning your house into your bunker)

Nonperishable foods
Camping stove with plenty of fuel
Lanterns
etc, etc, etc.

On the water purification; there are water bottles you can buy that have filters in the top. Scoop up the water, and it will filter/purify with activated charcoal as it leaves the bottle. Also, know how to use bleach to purify water... maybe google "Solar Water Disenfection."

Anyone want to add some stuff to that? :)

Check my post on the first page shortly after Jester's post. Basically, you have to put you and your family in the mindset that you won't have a properly functioning government (temporarily). No police, fire, EMS, first responders, etc. You also have to think of about all of your goods and service suppliers as out of business. I don't think it'll ever get to the point of living in tents and shit, but just a short set-back for goods and services for a while. What I'm more concerned about is other people. People who aren't prepared or panic. I mean, come on, look at New Orleans. Looting with run rampant if it ever does happen. I'm not letting anyone run off with my beer ;) My wife HATES guns, but you know what? I've got one a Kel-Tec .32 for her. It's small, lightwieght, easy to maintain and use. She'll carry it if she likes it or not because if the time ever arises, she's gonna have very few choices. Teach all members of your family to defend themselves, not just from terrorists, but from dumbasses among us that can't handle themselves in a disaster. Look at New York, selling bottled water to rescuers for $8 a bottle! Don't think for one second that every vendor around won't hike their prices up on everything. Get what you need while it's reasonable.

If you guys do decide to get the KI tabs (LOL), just dont get the KIO3 tabs. That shit will fuck up your internals.

And just for the record, KI (Potassium Iodide) pills won't do anything against a radioactive fall-out/bombing. Your thyroid couldn't supply 435978463578943 year's supply to fight against the radiation it would have. Don't waste your time, money, and storage space on those.

That is contrary to what the FDA says. Consider that if you are in a zone where half-life of iodine is an issue, you should be leaving the area. Otherwise you have even more problems (Chernobyl was a case study):

And Doctors for Disaster Preparedness:

(which inciodentally can help you all make out your "lists" and "to dos" if you are serious.

I'm not saying KI is something you should stock up on, but if you are going to go to the trouble of building a bugout bag for the family, you might consider it. What if you actually need it and you find someone with a half bottle for sale? Are you sure they didn't fill an old bottle with vitamins so they could trade you for some ammo and water?

Maybe if the bomb went off in Hawaii nad the radiation spread over here, it might reduse the chances for hypothyroidism, but I seriously think people are underestimating the powers of the nuclear capabilities of places like Korea, China, Iran, etc. Sure not all have the delivery means yet, but there's always terrorist groups that'll pay good money and get it over here.

The #1 concern in any scenario that you guys are entertaining is always the dumbasses and the lawlessness that follows. There are plenty of idiots who will turn into fucking animals if they think they need to in order to survive.

The biggest thing on the list is a good gun, a good big knife, shelter, and a constant way to start fire(magnifing glass, flint/steel), and water purification tablets.

KI tablets would do nothing in that case. I131 is a fission product.

But I agree with your scenario for handling it. You have my vote.
So then do you think the reason these people were found with these tablets is that their supperiors told them to have them to make them ''feel'' like they are being protected against radiation?

I think they don't even know what the hell the tablets are for. There isn't any reason to carry them knowing you are going to be in a fallout zone when the real soultion would be not to go there in the first place.
