coverup already?
Someone needs to tell this to Mayor Boss Junior and Gov. Blago
GMTA ;)
It's a toss-up between Islam and the illegal unarmed invasion on the United States of America of which one needs more emphasis.
(Both are now irreversibly woven together like a Persian Rug. And neither are being recognized for the threats they are to our way of life by our elected representatives.)

Thanks Vel, Cindy and all.
There's a new post today at the jihadi forums called
"A map the operations of the coming Al-Qaeda" or
The map of the coming operations of AQ
http://trackingalqueda.blogspot.com/
Iran won't back off, IMO--they have their facilities so well hidden underground that even those bunker busters can't reach them- or so I have read. They feel fully justified in having a nuclear weapon (or hundreds) as Israel has some 200 or so.
I am certain there are numerous other countries possessing nuclear weapons that we are not yet aware of. I would not be the least surprised if Taiwan has a nuke or two, possibly even Japan has a nuke or two...plus it is entirely possible countries like Nigeria possess the "bomb". Khan basically exported it everywhere Muslims requested it. Oh, let's not forget the Saudi's- sure they have a few up their sleeve or at least access to them. And the Paki's play us for fools- take our money- pretend they are searching for OBL- meanwhile keep him well hidden and have their nuke arsenal as well.
I don't know about the ecstacy- might make them all grandiose and eager to strike first.
Einstein stated that he did not know how the Third World War would be fought- but the fourth would be fought with sticks and stones....I tend to agree with him and believe we are closer to WWIII then we care to acknowledge. Not us TMers- but look at the regular shows on TV....the Apprentice; Ultimate makeover; Cops; very little mention of true world events and true threats.
Then we are told it is not a question of "if" but "when" so we are supposed to prep as if for a snow storm....Those deemed of value have their underground facilities (some are already esconced within them- not only gov. folks but industry leaders and the like.)
We the people are left holding the (empty) bag.
I spoke with Dad- it was NOT Caremark he had trouble with---it was Bank of America. Indian woman chattering on sending him new pin- never arrived. By the way they have gone to 6 digits.
Same thought here. Do we have any news about that transmission and where it originated from?
Time to head out. Best wishes to all and have a productive , safe evening...
Thanks. This trip is going to include a commuter run from Denver to Pueblo Colorado. The aircraft equipment type appears to be a something appropriate for general aviation rather than scheduled commercial service. That should be interesting.

"Jihadists Take Stand on Web, and Some Say It's Defensive"
According to the New York Times:
Last week, the Zarqawi group quickly denied news reports that it was responsible for a suicide car bomb in Hilla that killed 136 people. The attack was aimed at police and army recruits gathering outside a clinic, but many civilians, including women and children, were also killed. Residents of Hilla staged large and angry demonstrations against the violence that were featured on Arabic satellite television stations and Web sites.
The Zarqawi group's denial noted, correctly, that it had claimed responsibility for a separate attack on the same day aimed at American soldiers in southern Baghdad - not for the Hilla attack.
"We, the media department of Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia, declare that we have our own means of publication and that we observe the accuracy and truth of our statements," the statement said. "No one should aspire to say about us what we have not said."
We covered this issue last week, and as we noted then:
a. the "denial" really wasn't so much a denial as it was the lack of a confirmation. And
b. later the same day they did in fact take credit for the attack in Hilla.
The idea that Salafyist (Sunni) terrorists would feel anything like embarrassment at the wholesale slaughter of Shi'ites (Hilla is a Shi'ite community) is laughable. I'm not sure that the likes of Zarqawi consider Shi'ites human beings, or Muslims.
Has anything changed significantly in the past few weeks in regards to the jihadists in Iraq and their use of the internet?
Perhaps yes, though there is some debate as to the conclusions to be drawn from these changes.
The appearance of a publication in the name of Zarqawi's outfit is new, and reinforces the idea that volunteers from Saudi Arabia are central to the operation, since the 'Zurwat al Sanam' product is clearly patterned after similar publications which Al Qaida in Saudi Arabia released before the production team was killed, captured or driven out of the country.
The recent increase in 'chattiness' on the part of Zarqawi's lieutenants is a matter of some discussion within the Haganah. Take for example this...
...a letter from Abu Suleiman al-Iraqi (Zarqawi's security chief) to Abu Umar al-Baghdadi (probably the guy who is in charge in Baghdad area/province). One possibility is that they are actually using the forums to communicate. This strikes us as unlikely. A better guess is that they are doing this for show, because, as the Times report rightly notes:
...the jihadists seem highly sensitive to perceptions that they have been weakened or demoralized in recent weeks.
Many of the groups' new messages, for instance, refer to American claims that some of Mr. Zarqawi's loyalists have been captured, and that the noose is tightening around him. When Iraqi government officials released new photographs of Mr. Zarqawi on Monday, the group quickly responded with an explanation: the Americans had obtained them after killing a member of its "press department" in Falluja.
That they have started publishing under names other than that of Abu Maysara, and that Abu Maysara's online behavior has changed in some subtle ways, is interesting. While the intent may be to disprove American and Iraqi claims of progress in battling the Zarqawi group, and to demonstrate that Zarqawi still has a viable organization, these changes may also be seen as confirmation that they have indeed suffered losses.
I'm inclined to agree with Rita Katz's analysis:
"I think they feel they are losing the battle," said Rita Katz, director of the SITE Institute, an American nonprofit group that monitors Islamist Web sites and news operations. "They realize there will be a new government soon, and they seem very nervous about the future."
Her suggestion that "the insurgent groups appear to be focusing more on winning and retaining the sympathies of Iraqis" is reasonable enough, though I have spent a considerable amount of time studying the demographics of the prominent Islamist forums, and I see very little traffic from Iraq to these forums with the obvious exception of the operatives who post the communiqués. More likely this propaganda campaign is targeting the Saudis and European Arabs who frequent the forums where these communiqués are posted.

OPINION:
Yes, violence to a person and/or property
can happen anytime, anywhere and with no
notice given. I understand personally how
that is and how it feels.
