Postcards With Threatening Cartoon Sent To Nine Schools

Investigators in Marion County, Fla., are searching for the author of nine postcards sent to different schools on the same day, with the words ‘Jihad-Boom” and cartoons drawn by hand, of a building being blown up with people inside.

Investigators released the postcards with the threatening drawings on them Monday in hopes of generating leads in the case. Officials said that the postcards are made up of various and traditional themes, and each one has a distinctive hand-drawn cartoon on it. Several of the threats arrived on postcards featuring Walt Disney World. Detectives said the threat-maker crossed his or her No. 7s and attached a suffix to the address. Six of the nine postcards spell the word “Jihad” correctly, while the others are incorrect.

Here is something else for thoughts as you consider this…

Over the summer months, and while your attention has been upon everything but school, at least 17 school buses have been stolen from a variety of student transportation concerns, including private companies, charter schools and businesses. These thefts occurred within a specific geographical suburb of Houston. No known threat? Oh, yes, there is a very real promissory threat from Islamic terrorists to kill several million American children; this is just one avenue to accomplish that Islamic promise. Figuratively, this falling “tree” is a threat to our children and also involves a transportation system. Did you hear it?

The U.S. Postal Service said that the postcards were all mailed to the schools from the Ocala-Gainesville mailing district before the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. A $10,000 reward has been issued to anyone who provides information which leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for using the postal service to mail the threatening postcards to schools.

Although the postcards were sent out prior to the 9/11 anniversary, on each postcard TWO DATES “9-11 ? 10-10” appear in the upper corner. From the 9-11, 10-10, sequence, an additional sequence date on these postcards would be 11-9. (11-9 would also be the European date format for 9-11)

This might be important considering the writing on the postcard of “9-11 ? 10-10”. The question mark may mean “you figure out the KEY date in the middle- haha” sort of a taunt. he does this ? thing on all the postcards.

The possible significance of a 10/10 date. It is the  day the US Congress gave President George Bush authorization to use military force against Iraq.

Don’t panic, but be aware. It has happened before in Russia. They will strap a bomb on their own children and send them to their death….don’t think they won’t do it to ours.

This news article is out in several news papers in the Marion County, Fla area as it was release by local authorities there.

The National Terror Alert Response Center has an article that is related to this.

The Terrorist Threat To Our Schools

Some time after 9/11, several pieces of an elaborate puzzle came together for the first time and created a stunning picture of the complex planning that went into the attack on the World Trade Center and Pentagon. Unfortunately, those pieces came together much too late.

Over the past couple of years, National Terror Alert has featured several seemingly unrelated news events and stories, all with a common thread… A potential terrorist threat to our nations children and schools.

With each news story it appears that the planning of a new attack, one with potentially horrific consequences, could be in the works. We’ll let you decide for yourself.

Could all of these stories amount to nothing more than incredible coincidence? Certainly, but there are several elements of 9/11 that prior to the attack would have also been attributed to the same and we are all too familiar with the end result.

Later this week we will feature a follow-up post that will show you what steps you can take to keep yourself, your family and your school safe.

One word of caution… Don’t allow yourself to dismiss certain stories because of their age (3-4 years). al Qaeda is known for having operational planning windows varying up to 5 or 6 years. They are patient and methodical in their planning. Several reports related to Beslan indicate that terrorists may have actually been involved in the construction of the school, years earlier.
The Beslan Massacre

On September 1, 2004, Beslan’s Secondary School Number One was taken over by Islamist Chechen terrorists. 1200 adults and children were taken hostage on what was supposed to be an exciting first day of school. When the siege ended 3 days later, 344 were dead, including 186 children. Hundreds more were wounded.

We cannot and should not underestimate the threat, or worse yet, falsely believe the danger doesn’t exist. In intelligence circles, many fear that the Beslan massacre may only have been a dress rehearsal for what al-Qaeda plans to do in America but on a much larger scale, launching multiple school attacks simultaneously across the country.

Cleric Supports Taking Children Hostage

In 2004, one extremist Islamic cleric based in Britain said that he would support hostage-taking at British schools if carried out by terrorists with a just cause. Omar Bakri Mohammed, the spiritual leader of the extremist sect al-Muhajiroun, said that holding women and children hostage would be a reasonable course of action for a Muslim who has suffered under British rule.

Permission To Take The Lives of 2 Million American Children

Al-Qaeda spokesman Suleiman Abu Gheith, originally from Kuwait, posted a three-part article titled “In the Shadow of the Lances” on the website of the Center for Islamic Research and Studies, in 2004. He said, “We have not reached parity with them. We have the right to kill 4 million Americans – 2 million of them children – and to exile twice as many and wound and cripple hundreds of thousands”.

And it’s more than just words.
al Qaeda Video Shows Mock Siege of An American School

In 2001 videos were seized in Afghanistan, depicting a mock al-Qaeda siege of schools. The New York Post said at the time, that the al-Qaida tapes include the rehearsed shooting of schoolchildren and the taking of hostages.

The location was an abandoned school in Mir Bach Kot, Afghanistan, north of Kabul, a hotbed of al-Qaeda activity before the U.S. and allied forces ousted the Taliban.

This video clip was reportedly part of eight hours of footage obtained from a terrorist training camp in Afghanistan. The source that provided it to explained that it shows terrorists training for a school takeover operation.

Iraqi Insurgent In Possession of Computer Disk With Detailed Information On The Emergency Plans For 6 U.S. Schools

Jump ahead to October 2004. Schools in six states were notified that information had been uncovered by the U.S. military in Baghdad that a man described as an Iraqi insurgent involved in anti-coalition activities had been captured and was in possession of computer discs with downloaded school floor plans and safety and security information about elementary and high schools in the six states, according to officials.

School officials in Fort Myers, Fla.; Salem, Ore.; Gray, Ga.; Birch Run, Mich.; two towns in New Jersey; and two towns in California have been told to increase security in light of the discovery.

FBI Issues Warning To Schools

The information found on the insurgent was considered serious enough for the FBI to issue this warning.

The warning asked schools and administrators to be on the lookout for the following:

– Interest in obtaining site plans for schools, bus routes and attendance lists.

– Prolonged “static surveillance” by people disguised as panhandlers, shoe shiners, newspaper or flower vendors or street sweepers not previously seen in the area.

– Observations of security drills.

– People staring at or quickly looking away from employees or vehicles as they enter or leave parking areas.

– Foot surveillance of campuses involving individuals working together.

Extremists Sign Up to Become School Bus Drivers

Fast forward to March of this year and reports of extremists attempting obtain jobs as school bus drivers and to also purchase school buses.

In a bulletin issued by the FBI and read to the Associated Press, the public was informed that members of extremist groups were signing up to become bus drivers.

The bulletin, parts of which were read to The Associated Press, did not say how often foreign extremists have sought to acquire licenses to drive school buses, or where.

It noted “recent suspicious activity” by foreigners who either drive school buses or are licensed to drive them, according to a counter-terror official.

Foreigners under recent investigation include “some with ties to extremist groups” who have been able to “purchase buses and acquire licenses,” the bulletin says.

School Bus Terrorism Dry Run?

In June of 2006, we caught our first glimpse of just how soft our public school buses are as targets. Two men from Saudi Arabia were arrested after they boarded a public school bus taking students to Wharton High School. Mana Saleh Almanajam, 23, and Shaker Mohsen Alsidran, 20, both of Tampa, were charged with trespassing on school grounds as unlawful riders on a school bus.

Gov’t: Terrorists Could Target School Food

As if this weren’t enough, remember back in 2005 when the government warned that they were looking at the possibility of terrorists targeting food destined for school cafeterias.

2000 Missing School Bus Radios

In a Superintendent’s Bulletin dated March 23, 2005, district superintendents were informed of a series of school bus two-way radio thefts that were currently being perpetrated throughout California. More than 2,000 school bus digital two-way radios have been stolen.

17 School Buses Missing In Houston

The Houston Police Department’s Criminal Intelligence Division, the FBI and the Harris County Sheriff’s Office are all concerned about a large number of school buses that have been stolen in the Houston area over the last several months.

Seventeen large, yellow school buses were stolen recently from various charter schools, business schools and private bus companies.

How It All Ties Together

According to terrorists, The Perfect Day is the day that Americans are killed on an unprecedented scale. It’s the day that no one, not even our children sitting in their classrooms at school, are safe. It’s the day that seemingly isolated incidents all converge into the greatest threat this country has ever experienced or imagined. It’s the day that the Islamist jihad against the West begins in earnest. It’s “The Perfect Day” – but it’s only perfect if you’re a terrorist.

This sounds like the inhuman, cowardly plans terrorists would execute. If one puts just the information together from the articles on this page, it would be appealing to terrorists and represent a real threat. The facts are not coincidence, and we can be sure there is more information that was not released. I'll just say in a very sad and serious manner that this would be a horrible way to turn a bunch of liberals into conservatives quickly, but it will be too late.

I will pray that nothing like this happens, and we all should. However, I have to be blunt and say that almost NOTHING has been done to prevent terrorist infiltration into this part of the world. At this point, it would almost be like standing on the railroad tracks with a train coming and praying that the train doesn't run over you. It makes me very sad to know that something like this is quite likely - sooner or later. SO, prayer might be the most effective tool we have left - other than massive and overwhelming retaliation after the fact. If we don't wise up, we might find out fairly soon why this portion of the world isn't mentioned in Bible Prophecy. We must at least have the common sense to defend ourselves.
