High terror alert shouldn't be considered as, "Special occasions," but religious business as usual, as long as the koran will be considered a religious book.

Britain raises UAE terror alert to "high"

DUBAI (Agencies)

Monday, 16 June 2008

Britain has warned its nationals traveling to the United Arab Emirates of a "high threat from terrorism", raising its alert for the Gulf Arab trade hub that is home to large community of British expatriates.

"We believe terrorists may be planning to carry out attacks in the UAE," the British foreign office website wrote.

"Attacks could be indiscriminate and could happen at any time, including in places frequented by expatriates and foreign travelers such as residential compounds, military, oil, transport and aviation interests."

The British Embassy in Dubai declined to specify what had prompted the change, saying that threat alerts were continually being reviewed based on a variety of information.

The previous level referred to a "general threat from terrorism".

"It has gone up a level to high... but most threat levels go up and down," Simon Goldsmith, spokesman for the British Embassy in Dubai, told Reuters.

The embassy said that over one million British visitors traveled to the UAE in 2006, and that more than 100,000 British nationals are resident there, the largest Western community in the country.

More than 80 percent of the population of 5.6 million in the fast-developing UAE are foreigners, according to figures for 2006 published in February this year.

 

US warns of terror attacks in the UAE and throughout the Middle East

WASHINGTON (AFP)

Tuesday, 17 June 2008

U.S. missions in the United Arab Emirates on Monday cautioned their citizens living there about the potential for attacks in the UAE and throughout the Middle East, as the summer season approaches.

Americans were reminded of "the general security situation" in the region before the "summer travel and holiday season, including plans for 4th of July celebrations around the UAE," according to a copy of an official U.S. message.

The embassy in Abu Dhabi and consulate in Dubai "wish to advise Americans that potential exists for terrorists to plan and carry out violent actions in the region, including the UAE," according to the message obtained by AFP.

"And for this reason Americans should maintain a high level of personal security awareness at all times, particularly in public places," according to a copy of the message sent to AFP by a State Department official.

The message follows a warning Monday from the British embassy in the UAE which said "there is a high threat from terrorism. We believe terrorists may be planning to carry out attacks in the UAE."

A State Department spokesman, Gonzalo Gallegos, told reporters in Washington earlier that the U.S. government was aware of the travel warning to British citizens in the UAE and was preparing to update its own advice.

"We're monitoring the situation in-country in order to keep American citizen travelers (informed) of the most current safety and security information," Gallegos said.

The latest advice updates a worldwide U.S. caution given on January 17 about the continuing threat of "terrorist actions and violence against Americans and interests throughout the world."

Thank you for your effort.

Ahh, at last we are alone! Naseem would never comment on a thread like this, she could not think of a lie to cover such savagery! But, I should remind everyone of what Naseem is. Once now again! NASEEM IS A WOMAN, NO MAN WOULD OR COULD WRITE LIKE THAT! SHE REALLY IS A MUSLIM THOUGH OF A HATED REVISIONIST SECT! AND SHE IS WELL INFORMED ! AND SHE IS A GOOD MUSLIM WHO PRAYS - AND SHE LIES BUT ONLY IN THE SPIRIT ALLOWED BY THE KORAN - SHE IS A LIAR, AND A CAUGHT AND PROVEN LIAR, BUT SHE IS ONLY DOING WHAT THE KORAN TELL HER IS GOOD AND HOLY - YES, SHE IS A QUEEN AMONG MUSLIMS, BUT FOR OUR PURPOSES SHE IS JUST ANOTHER BIG FAT LIAR - EXCEPT THAT SHE IS A GOOD LESSON IN MUSLIM PSYCHOLOGY - STUDY HER WELL - BUT DON'T EVER BELIEVE SHE IS just A TROLL, SHE REALLY FEELS SHE NEED TO MAKE SOME CONVERTS BEFORE SHE DIES - STOP ALL THIS NONESENSE ABOUT HER BEING A MAN! SHE IS WHAT SHE SAYS, THE LYING IS JUST PART OF WHAT SHE IS. The Koran says it is a holyu thing to do

Naseem said:

Assalamau Laikum Hal,

I fail to see why you think I would not comment on a thread like this...you have a very stereotypical, warped and non-sensical view about me and about half the humanity on Allah's created duniya...it is probably why you have no friends and still live at home with your sow.

As to potential cowardly attacks on innocents(and I include kaffur in this) ...they are to be roundly condemned....the warped view of a few haram peoples does not Islam make.

hal said:

Oh Naseem, this is the second time you have insulted my mother - first you call her a "christian catholic bitch, and then a pig -- and now you write, "you have no friends and still live at home with your sow." A sow! my old Mom! You call her a pig - therefore, since I am sure I understand you correctly, I am the son of a Bitch and the son of a Pig - or, the son of a Pig-Bitch. It seems plain to me that you are mad enough to murder me, and, you would be within your rights for sure if the Koran is accurate in what your behavior should be towards non-Muslims like me. But, the fact remains Naseem, that you lied about Robert Spencer in order to get sympathy from us Christians for your efforts to convert us to that book of Murder and Robbery named the Koran - I shall inform my mother as to what you think of her - my you find peace after you convert to the truthful religion of truth tellers.

hal said:

By the way! If you out there ever wondered what Muslims pray for five times a day, it is mostly like what you see poor Maseem wishing for up there - they wish that their enemies die a horrible death, and their enemies families - they wish that their enemies mothers get cancer, and the whole family go to Hell and suffer forever in a vat of boiling poop - read the Koran, be informed - imagine what Maseem is "praying" for my poor old Mom! Painful cancer no doubt - most Muslim "prayers" are really just horrifying curses and hexes.

hal said:

No Muslim anywhere would call a person the "son of a Pig-bitch" as Naseem called Hal above, without also wishing with all it's Muslim heart, to murder such a person - and if you called a Muslim the son of a Pig-Bitch, he would murder you if he could - so you see what Naseem really is - Naseem, the gentlest of all Muslims, is willing to murder Hal because he proved a truth about her - see how she informs us about the true Muslim personality as formed and encouraged by the Mighty Koran! Do you want to become like her? Join the religious Mafia called Islam and do your five daily curses.

hal said:

Well Naseem, I guess this is goodbye, goodbye, goodbye - you refuse us the simple courtesy of confession - as if you alone of all the people on the world are with out sin. typical! Why not just act a little human? All these filthy curses do not look good in a woman's mouth - get clean Naseem! Come away from that book of murder and revenge named the Koran. Also, it is not lost on us that you could not answer even one of Ibn's questions he put to you even though you promised us you would answer them - we realize that you can not of course, so why do you not, out of simple courtesy, admit that?

"sons of apes and pigs" refers to Jews alone, does it not?

hal said:

No, it does not, but there is plenty of room for hate in Islam for everybody - even other mainline Muslims

hal said:

"High terror alert shouldn't be considered as, "Special occasions," but religious business as usual, as long as the koran will be considered a religious book." High Hate too! But Islam is Censorious, and censorship is the first step towards murder which is the perfect suppression of FREEDOM. A dead man can not even brush the flies away from his eyes - censorship is the first step - it is so Islamic! Even Naseem doesn't deserve it!
