U.S. Charges Australian Linked to al-Qaida
WASHINGTON - An Australian held at the Navy's prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, will face a military tribunal for allegedly training and fighting alongside members of al-Qaida in Afghanistan (news - web sites), the Pentagon (news - web sites) announced Thursday.

Yup. Some were my friends. Over the last twenty five years I have lost eight buddies in the service. Some died in combat and some died in training. It's a dangerous line of work. You don't have to get killed by the enemy to give your life for your country. Some, like this brave sailor, were slaughtered like sheep. To me that would be the worst way to go, but it was not a useless death. He met it well and bravely and that makes all the difference.
Thanks. I had a quiet day at the office today.
Jill, do you think that an attack by sea from AQ could be imminent?
There are so many of our ships at sea.
Something just doesn't feel right about this whole thing.
Everyone is looking to the skies.
I believe the next hit will come by sea or ground.
Your thoughts???
Bad links, Jill.
Just the person I was looking for. What ever happened with your friend from the BBC who indicated that they were sitting on a big story for national security reasons? (I think it was you anyway.)
It was not my friend.
If you remember correctly, I also warned to "take it for what it's worth".
I never said that it was factual.
Bush Draws Line in Sand with Iran
NewsMax Wires
Saturday, March 13, 2004
It may turn out to be the next foreign policy crisis, on par with the Cuban Missile Crisis and Americas recent showdown with Iraq.
And remember, you heard it here first.
NewsMax has learned from a senior State Department official that President Bush has, Alamo-style, drawn a line in the sand over Iran's nuclear weapons programs.
Bush's warning: Either Iran dismantles its nuclear weapons program or else.
Here is how the crisis has been unfolding.
On Saturday, Iran halted all international inspections of its nuclear facilities.
This came, as the AP reported, hours after the U.N. atomic agency issued a resolution censuring Tehran for hiding suspect activities.
The agency, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), recently discovered that Iran had been enriching its uranium to a degree that made it crystal clear they were planning to build nuclear weapons.
Faced with this evidence, Iran reneged on an agreement that it signed last year giving IAEA inspectors free access to its nuclear sites. The U.S., led by State Department Under Secretary John Bolton, has pressed for a censure by the IAEA of Iran for failing to comply with its promises.
The U.S. effort was opposed by many in the administration and the State Department. However, President Bush himself made clear his policy: Iran must comply or else.
As expected, the Iranians reacted angrily to the U.S.-sponsored IAEA resolution, with Pirooz Hosseini, Iran's permanent IAEA representative, claiming that "Iran's [nuclear] program is exclusively peaceful."
U.S. chief delegate Kenneth Brill accused Iran of "continuing to pursue a policy of denial, deception and delay."
The AP noted that an IAEA report last month accused Iran of hiding evidence of nuclear experiments and noted the discovery of traces of radioactive polonium, which can be used in nuclear weapons.
The report also expressed concern about the discovery of a previously undisclosed advanced P-2 centrifuge system for enriching uranium.
Interesting that this coincides with all of our naval moves at this time.
For some reason, when I posted the links here, it did not accept the full link. You need to copy and paste each link into your address bar...sorry!
Hey...And old one. Even a couple of months before my time here at FR. Those were the days.
I the American people had the guts to elect a president who was strickly constitutional then that new president could enact one single executive order...To Null and voild all the others. Now that would be fun to watch.
I believe that it will originate from the sea. I have to leave right now, and will return in about an hour and a half...I will post my complete thoughts and reasoning as soon as I get back...I don't have time now.
As far as the sky and earthquakes....explore tectonic weapons....the possibility is very real thanks to the KGB!
I just reposted the links.

847 was on one of Daleel's list of numbers. RE: Threat Matrix 3 or 4.

UPDATED: 8:54 AM EDT June 14, 2004 COOPER CITY, Fla. -- More than 600 men and boys stood shoulder to shoulder and whispered prayers to Allah as they buried Gulshair El Shukrijumah, a revered Islamic leader, Saturday. His son, Adnan El Shukrijumah, is accused by the FBI as being a terrorist.
I hope someone from the FBI checked this out. Maybe sonny showed up. Also, birds of a feather....
