OPINION-EXTREME SPECULATION:
Oh, I agree with you Skeggs.
I sincerely doubt that UBL
is going to a new buddy
each night.
He's most likely living
in relatively high-style
and/or very comfortable
digs.
Again, just speculating.
Thanks for that summary Godzilla.

55% want SDF out of Iraq by March 15: poll
About 55 percent of respondents in a Kyodo News poll conducted Saturday and Sunday said the Self-Defense Forces should withdraw from Iraq by March, when Dutch troops engaged in security operations are scheduled to leave the country.
According to the telephone survey, which covered 1,491 households with 1,056 people responding, 34.5 percent said the troops should withdraw immediately after Iraq holds parliamentary elections Jan. 30. Almost 21 percent said the SDF should pull out along with the Dutch troops, who are set to leave Iraq by March 15.
The survey results may indicate that the public is becoming more concerned about the unstable security situation in Iraq as U.S. troops there have been targeted by militants and the Ground Self-Defense Force camp in Samawah has come under a series of rocket and mortar attacks.
According to the survey, 25.6 percent said the SDF should withdraw on Dec. 14, 2005, the expiry date for their current aid mission in and around Iraq. The government extended the initial mission for another year beyond Dec. 14, 2004. Roughly 600 GSDF troops have deployed in Samawah on a rotational basis to assist in reconstruction efforts.
Eleven percent called for the withdrawal of the troops "six months after (last December's) renewal of the mission." Those who supported the SDF's deployment in Iraq stood at 38.3 percent, while 55.7 percent expressed opposition. In the event that any SDF troops deployed in Iraq are killed or injured, 65.2 percent said they should withdraw immediately, up 11.2 percentage points from a survey in February, while 31.0 percent, down 7.7 points, said they should stay.
That's interesting.
Some sites of interest seem to like
French and Japanese sites.

Dubai (Rueters) Abou Moussab Zarqawi promises a "war without mercy" in Iraq on the occasion of the January 30 elections, according to an audio message attributed to the Jordanian and spread Sunday on an internet site.
The speaker, who presents himself as being Zarqawi, urges as well the Sunni minority not to participate in the voting, which qualifies as an anti-Sunnite conspiracy hatched by the United States and the Shi'ite majority in Iraq.
"We have declared a war without mercy against the principle of democracy and against all those who try to enforce it", declared the voice, which resembles that of previous recordings attributed to Zarqawi, enemy number one of the United States in Iraq.
"The candidates in the elections are trying to become demi-gods while those who vote for them are infidels. And with God as our witness, I inform them (of our intentions)", adds the speaker.
"O people of Iraq, where is your honor? You subject yourselves to the oppression of the Crusader prostitutes (...) and the apostate pigs (Shi'ites)."
"You must be cautious in front of the conspiracies of the enemy who especially desire to establish democracy in your country and you must fight these projects because they aim uniquely at giving power in Iraq to the apostates (Shi'ites)."
"And after having fought the Baathists(...) and the Sunnis, they are going to spread their insidious ideas and Baghdad and all the Sunni areas will become Shi'ite (...), today even, the signs of infidelity and polytheism are on the rise," continues the speaker.
According to him, democracy is "a lie" that the United States uses for brainwashing Muslims and the inhabitants of the Middle East with the aim of creating a Greater Israel and robbing Iraq of its riches.
He says to reject democracy because he thinks that all laws need to be dictated by God.
Vox populi, vox Dei

Thanks skeggs and that's a beautiful link.
Amen and echoed by a majority of the US population (not the illegal ones) IMHO.
What was she paid or to be paid to commit acts of terror might be the appropriate response to this claim.
