Jim,Just wanted to summarize in short, on the incident yesterday for your records. The adversaryconversation that we intercepted and monitored throughout the day ' ended with the followingpoints.

1. There were 5 major subjects in the Arabic dialogue.2. One of the subjects (1) was inquiring in a discreet manner as to how to get from K-stan toA-stan.

3. Reason fo r his movement into A-stan is to target American forces because of the decisionof the President to increase troops.4. I t is unknown whether the subjectl is looking to do an attack on his own or tocoordinate/recruit/transport adversarial elements or weapons/explosives.

1



5. The subjectl received info from two dominating subjects2/3 who explained to him details of

crossing the border into A-stan from th e east.

6. Subject2 hinted to the fact that the means into A-stan is located on the map which heattached to th e dialogue.

7. Subject3 stated that Subject1 can meet up with a Taliban handler as soon as he crosses th e

border. Subj3 stated the handler is located infront of him. Our analysts are under the

impression that one of the Subj in th e dialogue is the handler.

8. In a search of past activities of Subj1, we see he's very active in other jihadist sites,

has outreached on Facebook, hascolleagues of

AsianIslamic origin,

and has over a periodof

time expressed radical religious interests.9. As of 62Dec, 2366GMT+2, there was very l i t t le additional dialogue .End Summary. AR

The Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center (TAM-C) has just passed on information indicating that protests are being

planned for President Obama's visit to Carnegie Mellon University. The communications, sent on 1 June 2010 atapproximately 6:45PM, is quoted below.

The communication indicates that the president will be speaking in Pittsburgh on Wednesday, 2 June 2010.

>Some folks are meeting up at Hillman Library front steps at Forbes and

Bigelow in Oakland tonight at 9pm to discuss messaging and ideas to present

to President Obama in protest tomorrow when he comes to eMU to speak about

the economy. The group will probably move to another location once gathered.

If you can't fmd the group, call Alex at 570 269 9589. Another e-mail will

be sent out after the meeting with as much information (meet up time, place,

messaging) as possible. If you can't be there, feel free to call or e-mail

me about your ideas to be included, just be sensitive to who might be

listening.

I contacted the Philadelphia Police Civil Affairs division at 8:45 pm.This is the Un it responsible for policing

demonstrations in Ihe city. They were unaware of any scheduled protest and/or demonstration planned at our facility .

As such, I have provided them with the intelligence that we have gained and my contact information.

I will follow-up with them at 6am to obtain 'an update. In the meantime, they have committed to conducting periodic checksto monitor for activity. .

I will also notify the Commanding Officer of the 9th Patrol District to alert him to potential activity .

Mary Kate - Please jump on this immediately and see what you can find out about this rally ASAP. Get as many details

as you can and send to those on this email.

Liz checked the philaup.or site (below) and found nothing. She also googled "rally to Save adultBasic" and found nothing.

We need to find out as much details as we can so we can determine what we need to do.

Joe - Any noise about a rally at our doorstep tomorrow from your contacts?

Thanks,

Reminder!

Rally to Save adultBasic is tomorrow infront of Independence Blue

Cross at 12:30 PM.In order to maintain their Not For Profit status the four Blues in PA are required to conh'ibute to

adultBasic. This contribution is set to expire in December 2010. When that happens over 43,000

Pennsylvanians will lose their health insurance!

adultBasic is the Only program in PA that helps people making 200% above the Federal Poverty

Level get access to affordable health care. That is if you make $21,660/year (which is defmately

too much for Medicaid) the only affordable healt insurance program in PAis adultBasic.

This is not a program PA can afford to lose! Tell Blue Cross to do the right thing and use some oftheir 6 Billion surplus dollars to help low-income PA keep thier affordable coverage!

R-018-11

Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center (TAM-C) of the Institute of Terrorism

Research and Response

Intent:

To alert TAM-C subscribers of the intent by ecological activist groups to

conduct protests in identified American cities.

Threat Classification:

MODERATE (Level 3) - available intelligence and recent events indicate.

that terrorists have the capability to mount an attack on the target and

that such an attack is within the group's current intent. It is assessed thatan attack is likely to be a priority for the terrorists and might well bemounted.

Justification:

Analysts of the Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center (TAM-C) haveidentified the intention of environmental groups, led by United MountainDefense and the Student Environmental Action Coalition (SEAC), toconduct nationwide protests against mining and the use of coal.

The first protest, on Friday 14 August 2009, will take place at EPA

headquarters in Washington, DC.

Additional protests, from 17-19 August 2009, will take place in Boston,New York, Philadelphia, Dallas, Kansas City, Denver, San Francisco, andSeattle. These protests will be taking place at Environmental ProtectionAdministration (EPA) regional offices across the CONUS.

Advanced logistical planning indicates that some protests will beprolonged with support being provided by Food Not Bombs.

TAM-C analysts note that previously targeted financial institutions such as

Citi Bank may be considered secondary targets.

Conclusion:

Anti-EPA protests will take place across the CONUS.

The protests will range from legal expressions of discontent over controlof the mining and coal industry to illegal trespass.

Subject: 2nd Alert

Director Powers:

A second Alert has just been issued by the TAM-C:

TAM-C ALERT: SEVERE: JEWISH TARGETS

R-04 M-18

Intent:To provide guidance concerning immediate threat to Jewish and Israeli assets world-wide.


SEVERE (Leve l 2) Available intelligence and recent events indicate that hostile elements have an establishedcapability and current intent to take action against the target and there is some additional information on the nature of thethreat. It is assessed that an attack or action on the target is a priority and is likely to be mounted.

Justification:

Arable language analysts of the The Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center (TAM-C) have identified

internal jihadlst communications Indicating the intent to target Jewish tourists and businesspeople world

wide. The communications indicated a particular desire to conduct terror operations against Jewish

targets. In th e words of the targeting guidance, "You can kill, attack, take captive: Businessmen Tourists."

1

The threat of kidnapping operations is particularly severe. I t is the intent of the terrorists to use hostages

"to release the prisoners in the Jewish prison."



On this date the Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center issued an alert indicating the high potential of

terror activity in Israel and threats against Israeli and Jewish targets world-wide. This Alert was the result

of 31 May 2010 Israeli commando activity with the Gaza flotilla. As a result of this seaborne action, Hamas

has called for a "Day of Rage." The international jihadist call fo r action against Jewish Interests followedthe Hamas call for the Day of Rage.

Conclusion:The Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center researchers are continuing to assess the global response to this incident.Adversary communications wiU continue to be monitored for targeting guidance.

The threat level for Jewish and Israel-identified targets is significantly elevated.

Security personnel with assets in proximity to Israeli assets should be prepared to respond to collateral damage as aresult of acts of violence aimed at the Israeli assets.

TAM-C analysts note that the expected demonstrations at Jewish and Israeli-identified assets have the potential becomevery violent.

Our guys are working on an alert from information that was posted on a jihadist website 2 hours ago. It is a specificthreat to target Gainesville, FL as a result of the proposed Koran burning. (When it was first identified, the threat lookedmore consistent with Iraq or Afghanistan . After the analysts researched it, Aaron was shocked to be told it was Florida,)

The Alert is in the writing stage now.

Question: Do you have contact information for the Florida Fusion center? They should receive the information that ourclients get.
