Possible Terrorist Tape Surfaces
CAIRO, Egypt — An audiotape purportedly by key terror suspect Abu Musab al-Zarqawi (search) boasts in an apparently recent recording that Islamic holy warriors have humiliated the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq.
There was no way to verify the authenticity of the 45-minute recording or the date it was made. The audiotape surfaced Saturday, the third anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, on a Web site known for its Islamic (search) content.

In Search Of Friends Among The Foes
When U.S. immigration officers in New York City whisked away Ishaq Farhan as he stepped off an incoming international flight in May 2000, his Jordanian diplomatic passport was no help to him. Federal agents questioned him for hours before barring his entry into the country. Then they made him pay for the flight back to Jordan.
The U.S. Embassy in Jordan lost no time making amends to Farhan, a leading opposition politician who has been closely affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, a worldwide movement opposed to Western influences. A State Department official visited his home, issued him an immediate visa and passed on the United States' "deep regret for the difficulties Dr. Farhan experienced."
The episode demonstrates the U.S. government's dilemma. Some federal agents worry that the Muslim Brotherhood has dangerous links to terrorism. But some U.S. diplomats and intelligence officials believe its influence offers an opportunity for political engagement that could help isolate violent jihadists.

2) Large explosion in North Korea last week
"The United States was known to have shown its keen interest in the explosion after spotting its traces by satellite," the source was quoted as saying.
South Korea's unification minister Chung Dong-Young said Seoul had received an unsubstantiated report on the explosion in North Korea.
"We have received an unsubstantiated report on traces of an explosion in North Korea," he told reporters after a meeting of security-related officials. The unnamed source in Beijing said the blast had prompted speculation in Washington that the explosion was possibly related to a nuclear experiment, it said. (snip)
US officials said if North Korea proceeded with a test, it would probably be with a plutonium bomb, perhaps one fabricated from the 8,000 spent nuclear fuel rods that the North has boasted in the past few months have been reprocessed into bomb fuel, the report pointed out.
However, some analysts in agencies that were the most cautious about Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction have cautioned that they do not believe the activity detected in North Korea in the past three weeks is necessarily the harbinger of a test, The Times reported. (snip)

Al Qa'eda terrorists 'plan to turn tanker into a floating bomb'

Al Qa'eda terrorists 'plan to turn tanker into a floating bomb'
By Philip Sherwell, Massoud Ansari and Marianne Kearney
(Filed: 12/09/2004)
Fanatics from the Islamic terror faction blamed for last week's suicide attack on the Australian embassy in Indonesia are planning to hijack an oil tanker or freighter and turn it into a floating bomb, The Telegraph has learned.
United States intelligence has passed on warnings about the plot to launch an attack in the region's busy shipping lanes to several countries, including Indonesia, Singapore and Malaysia. They acted after intercepting communications between activists from Jemaah Islamiah (JI), a network linked to al Qa'eda.
Ayman Al-Zawahiri
The terrorists have been discussing plans to seize a vessel using local pirates. The hijacked ship would be wired with explosives and then directed at other vessels, sailed towards a port or used to threaten the narrow and congested sea routes around Indonesia.
Strong indications that Islamic extremists are planning a new wave of bloody attacks against Western targets also emerged in Pakistan where detained militants revealed that the latest al Qa'eda video tape was intended to be a trigger for fresh atrocities.
Prisoners captured in recent weeks have told their interrogators that last week's taped message from Ayman Al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden's deputy, was a signal for al Qa'eda cells that were already on standby.
"We were told that a new tape either carrying bin Laden or his deputy's message was on its way, and that it was intended to trigger a major terror attack," a senior Pakistani intelligence official told The Telegraph. "The cadres linked to the terror network were told to carry out an attack once this video is released."
In the tape, Al-Zawahiri predicted America's defeat in Afghanistan and Iraq. Security was further tightened at foreign embassies in Pakistan after its release just two days before yesterday's third anniversary of the September 11 attacks. Pakistani officials investigating the activities of Mohammed Naeem Noor Khan, the al Qa'eda computer expert believed to have been co-ordinating a plot to bomb Heathrow airport, have recovered further information from the arrested man's computer.
Khan and other militants had collected detailed lists of local and international staff of American and British missions working in Pakistan and senior officials in the war on terrorism. The information included home addresses, daily travel routines and even names of schools attended by the children of foreigners under surveillance.
In Indonesia, Australia's top policeman said yesterday that the militants behind the embassy attack on Thursday were believed to have deployed a second team of suicide bombers in Jakarta.
"There's further intelligence in the last 24 to 48 hours of a second group active in the area," said Mick Keelty, the Federal Police Commissioner, who flew to Jakarta to investigate the blast that killed nine Indonesians and injured 182.
Police released video recordings of the blast from two security cameras yesterday. They showed a van passing on its way to the embassy before blowing apart in a flash of smoke and debris, shaking trees and buildings before the image went blurry.
The attack indicated that JI remains a lethal force, despite the arrest of more than 200 activists across south-east Asia, including Hambali, its alleged mastermind, who was seized in Thailand last year.
Azahari Husin, a British-educated explosives expert who is believed to have made the devices that blew up a Bali disco in 2002, killing more than 200 people, and the Marriott hotel in Jakarta last August, has emerged as the organisation's most wanted man.
Indonesian police said yesterday that he had been recruiting members in recent weeks in Java, the biggest island in the world's most populous Muslim country, as JI regained strength following the arrests.
Husin, a Malaysian who completed a engineering doctorate at Reading University in 1990 and later trained at al Qa'eda camps in Afghanistan, is believed to have only recently moved out of a rented house in north-west Jakarta.
Following a tip-off after Thursday's attack, investigators raided the abandoned home and discovered traces of TNT explosives and sulphur, matching residue found at the embassy bomb site.
The rejuvenation of JI will heighten concerns in Australia that the country could face terrorist attacks on its soil ahead of parliamentary elections on October 9. John Howard, the conservative prime minister, is a strong backer of President George W Bush's war on terror and 850 Australian troops are serving in Iraq.
A purported claim of responsibility for the Jakarta attack was made by JI in a statement on the internet that threatened Australia with more attacks if it did not withdraw its troops from Iraq.

NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH IS LAUNCHED IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
Christian Emergency Network Taking A Leading Role
By Michael Ireland
Chief Correspondent, ASSIST News Service
WASHINGTON, D.C, (ANS) -- Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge spoke to 100 participants and organizers Sept. 9 at the launch of the National Preparedness Month in Washington, D.C.
Ridge encouraged the national emergency relief organization leaders to continue calling America to personal and family preparedness for any natural or man-made disasters.
Ridge began his speech with "Failing to prepare is preparing to fail," a quote from Hall of Fame UCLA basketball coach John Wooden.
He continued, "Three years after 9/11, I can tell you that working in common effort for the common good is how Americans must approach homeland security. Because when I say homeland security, I'm not speaking of a federal strategy; I'm speaking about the mission and the mandate of an entire nation."
Before his message, Ridge met with Christian Emergency Network (CEN) Chairman Mary Marr on how the Christian community can assist the efforts of homeland security in national preparedness. Ridge told CEN he is fully committed to finding new avenues to partner with the Christian community in national preparedness.
During the event, Senator Joe Lieberman told the attendees that "we can either panic or prepare as a nation, as a family, and personally."
American Red Cross President and CEO Marty Evans reminded the audience that people do not think twice about wearing a seat belt or placing their children in safety seats so it is reasonable in the 21st century to prepare for potential hazards of all types.
CEN national partners CBN-TV, The Salvation Army, and National Religious Broadcasters joined CEN for this national launch. CBN-TV will provide viewers with an inside view of the event as well as SRN News in coming days.
While Red Cross officials stressed the importance of making a plan, making a kit, and being informed, CEN continues to call Christians to equip themselves with 72-hour survival kits at www.CENkits.com and stay informed through their local Christian broadcasters.
In an interview with CBN-TV, CEN Chairman Marr explained that personal preparation is the first step in helping others.
"The recent Russian school terrorism attacks and Hurricane Frances should remind us that no one is immune from tragedy. This is God's wake-up call to His children as in the day of Noah: make a plan, make a kit, keep informed, and practice your plan with your family, co-workers, and congregation," Marr said.
Home Depot, Starbucks, Nextel, Kmart, Target, and many other commercial organizations are committed this month to encouraging their customers in making a plan, kit, and being informed.
In its survival kits, CEN offers first aid supplies as well as prayer/praise prompts, an emergency plan guide developed by The Salvation Army, a Bible from Zondervan, and Campus Crusade for Christ seeker booklets, along with 24/7 salvation counseling information through the NeedHim ministry.
CEN will work with Homeland Security and The Salvation Army to provide training for churches desiring to be a support to their communities in times of crisis.
