"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat"

Two Chinese diplomats, away from their Los Angeles consulate improperly, recently sped their vehicle past a Los Alamos National Laboratory guard post near classified facilities in what U.S. officials think was an intelligence mission, The Washington Times has learned.

" regarding magnetic polar Earth axis changes and everything in between"

Please post the info on magnetic polar axis changes! At one point way, way back in the threads we discussed this obscure possibility in relation to the Severnaya operation.

I did a quick search on "Topeka" and "Islamic" on Google....this is what I found...check out the Pluralism Project web site...the funding and all of the years of research are astounding....and not in a good way! Also pay particular attention to the distribution of Islamic centers on the map....1,780 as of 2003.

The Pluralism Project (Harvard University)

Mission

Our mission is to help Americans engage with the realities of religious diversity through research, outreach, and the active dissemination of resources.

In the past thirty years the religious landscape of the United States has changed radically. There are Islamic centers and mosques, Hindu and Buddhist temples and meditation centers in virtually every major American city. The encounter between people of very different religious traditions takes place in the proximity of our own cities and neighborhoods. The results of the 2000 census underscore the tremendous scope of ethnic change in our society, but tell us little about its religious dimensions or its religious significance.

Pluralism has long been a generative strand of American ideology. Mere diversity or plurality alone, however, does not constitute pluralism. There is lively debate over the implications of our multicultural and multireligious society in civic, religious, and educational institutions. How we appropriate plurality to shape a positive pluralism is one of the most important questions American society faces in the years ahead. It will require all of us to know much more about the new religious landscape of America than we presently know.

The Pluralism Project: World Religions in America is a decade-long research project, with current funding from the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations, to engage students in studying the new religious diversity in the United States.

We will explore particularly the communities and religious traditions of Asia and the Middle East that have become woven into the religious fabric of the United States in the past twenty-five years. The overall aims of the Pluralism Project are:

1. To document and better understand the changing contours of American religious demography, focusing especially on those cities and towns where the new plurality has been most evident and discerning the ways in which this plurality is both visible and invisible in American public life.

2. To study the religious communities themselves their temples, mosques, gurudwaras and retreat centers, their informal networks and emerging institutions, their forms of adaptation and religious education in the American context, their encounter with the other religious traditions of our common society, and their encounter with civic institutions.

3. To explore the ramifications and implications of America's new plurality through case studies of particular cities and towns, looking at the response of Christian and Jewish communities to their new neighbors; the development of interfaith councils and networks; the new theological and pastoral questions that emerge from the pluralistic context; and the recasting of traditional church-state issues in a wider context.

4. To discern, in light of this work, the emerging meanings of religious "pluralism," both for religious communities and for public institutions, and to consider the real challenges and opportunities of a public commitment to pluralism in the light of the new religious contours of America.

You know Granny you hit upon a topic that is red hot and waiting to erupt. Kruschev's threat "we will bury you" has begun to happen in Iraq and on our own shores. Cuba, China, Russia and the Muslims (including Syria and Iran) all have it in their interest to defeat us soundly and show us the power of their numbers. I hope we are up to this threat, because it looms over us just as you have been saying all along. The next assault(s) upon us will help them to assess our real strength or lack of it.

[MamaDearest]

What were you thinking LG2 - now we'll never know the nitty gritty low down evil plots you were supposed to get from the jihadis. You could have had some real fun "assisting" them. Now we're going to have to wait for Daleel to post another of his phophetic (pathetic?) messages (that he promised never to post again). Good try though you jihadi buster you! :)

Domestic, There is a list of 120 high risk cities that I got from a link from Steve Quales site: http:standeyo.com/News_Files/NBC/Top_120_cities.html I hope I got this web address correct. TM Grasshoppers

On Jill's site is an article titled "The Countdown Started and yesterday she bore the Romans" that may tie into this.

The Countdown Started

[Honestly]

No doubt the gang of them would love to see the fall of the United States. This post shows Al-Qaeda and China in cahoots in a sophisticated money laundering scheme using software sold to the Russians by Richard Hanssen (FBI computer specialist/KGB spy.)

Longtime lurker, first time poster. Daleel is back at the IH forum. He said he had been in Iraq, had just gotten back, and was posting under the $15,000,000 Reward thread. Wish I was more computer savvy, don't even know how to post a link or else I would provide one. The IH forum is rather disturbing, I don't have the nerve to become a member.

Here is a good map of navel bases.We can see if any match up.
Best I can tell the whole coast of Texas from Corpus Christi to Houston is bases or chemical plants or oil plants. My son says he can see oil rigs from the base so they must be all up and down the coast.

Blank emails.

Several reasons for those, all of us have managed to send one.

Yahoo mail strips some of the worms, bugs, virus from some of them and I get a blank email.

But I was interested in the bogdan links yesterday, in the one that the Moderator posted, and used the "White text" to
write the cuss words with...........

I saw a blank page, but when highlighted, the writing was there...

OK, maybe everyone but me knew how to do it, but I will be testing some of the group letters that I keep getting and don't have writing on them.

[Honestly]

I couldn't figure out how to see the words written in white either. Since they were cuss words, I guess we haven't missed much!

[nw_arizona_granny]

I checked a site today that has 2 aircraft flight warnings away from volcanoes in Alaska.

It gave me a plain text page, said my browser was too old, but you should be able to find the info, there were other flight warnings.

Check out the article on using Dopplar Radar to test for Bio-Chemical releases.

Don't read the article about the widow whose husband was killed in our war, 2 days before the insurance policy was in service. It leaves me speechless.

If anyone wants to capture the reports, go for it, I can't do that with my equipment.

[Cindy]

You can send me the link when you feel you can't post it "I Want to Know" because I can post it for you.

FYI.

The unfortunate thing is that if you are not a member of IH then you cannot view the Arabic postings and translations on the al neda forum; you will not even see that such a forum exists because it will be invisible to you as a non-member. This particluar forum is so far more valuable than the other general forum areas to which Daleel, Traveller, and some notable others post who do not post to al neda.

So -- you will miss the important posts similar -- but not always identical -- to the important ones posted by Jill St. Claire, StillProud2BeFree, NEIN, etc. But, thank goodness, you will get them from Jill, StillProud2BeFree and others who do post certain messages that they get on their own. But only some posts from IH are reposted here or anywhere else. Some only appear on IH and the original Arabic site they came from. There are many more that are not appearing anywhere else but on IH and they are interesting.

I follow them but I choose not to repost any of them. I follow for my own personal knowledge only. There are some indecent threads at IH that I do not go on and there certainly are threats at IH from some dubious posters for sure. All a part of the hunt for the brave hunters. It can be scary, but it is necessary in the hunt, I guess.

Just got off the phone with folks at Delta. Right now just thinking it is a computer glitz with the tower data base. Which is a problem but at this point they really don't know why. Will know more on Monday. I do know they haven't called all personal in like a terrorist attack.
