(excerpts)Aspiring legislator, pilot and self-confessed Al-Qaeda operative Mohammed Afroze was on Friday found guilty of conspiring to ‘‘commit terrorist acts on territories of nations at peace with India’’ and forgery.
…
Afroze’s conviction is probably the first such of an operative from Osama bin Laden’s Al-Qaeda in India, and came after investigators searched for evidence in at least three countries.
…
The police charged that between 1997 and 2001, the three accused had entered into a criminal conspiracy to hijack passenger planes and crash them into the House of Commons in London, the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon in the US, the Rolta Towers in Australia and Parliament House in New Delhi.
…
Afroze’s confession
* Uncle Mubarak Musalman told me to work for Al-Qaeda, train as pilot. He sent me Rs 1.5 lakh by hawala
* I paid Rs 10,000 to Rafique for obtaining a fake HSC certificate
* I met Mansoor Iliyaz, Al-Qaeda chief in Melbourne and (9/11) suicide squad members
* I was selected for targeting Parliament in London
I had a letter from Mosul yesterday. They "have been rolling up the bad guys left and right."

I can't get it to work when I try to post it to someone else.
I can hear it on my end, but it shows up error when I try to check it before posting it. Any ideas?
Jeeze, strange I can't find out about that on MSM, may they follow close behind.

New York Times printing of the 9/11 Report (doesn't include the footnotes)
"On November 4, 1998, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York unsealed its indictment of Bin Ladin...
"al Qaeda had reached an understanding with the government of Iraq that al Qaeda would not work against that government and that on particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al Qaeda would work cooperatively with the Government of Iraq."
Thank you, I'm going to post that to them as well.
In 2002, CBS's Leslie Stahl interviewed a known terrorist (Yasin) in BAGHDAD. He was involved in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.
So AFTER 9/11, Saddam was harboring terrorists (including Abu Nidal) in Baghdad.

I'll go and check out what has been posted to me.
If what I've already sent that self-loathing, old anti-American hippie the stuff I've gathered. I get sick to death of hearing Vietnam, where's the wmd's, where the link betewwn al queda and saddam.
All they ever spew is lie upon lie. And I've had my fill of them all.
Maybe when I go back there, I've been banned. Oh well, life will continue.
Thank you all again.
Well, they will say the memo is fake and the Weekly Standard is a neocon rag that prints lies.
We'll try to get you the footnotes in the 9/11 Report which has Iraqi ties to Zawahiri, bin Laden's second in command, but that will take some time.
We are waiting for Senator Norm Coleman's report on U.N. Food for Oil Senate investigation. There are supposed to be links between Saddam and al Qaeda in it. We'll see.
I didn't think this news was getting enough coverage so I posted this article myself.
I'd appreciate it if you'd take a minute and bump it.
With pleasure.
bttt
They always do.
I backtracked a posters comment to me and guess what, he stole it from 'The World Socialist Website' Did I love confronting him on that. I told him not only was he a socialist, he was also a plagiarist. He left the site last night and never came back.
He's back today, and am I having a blast with him and another burned out old hippie.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning, smells like...victory.
bump
LOL!
I ordered The Connection last night for my husband, who is the one who digs into all this stuff and tells me about it, and then I can sound smart and informed when I'm on line.
I also ordered another publisher's edition of the 9/11 Report and hope it has the footnotes, which the New York Times edition didn't.
Reminds me of my days in Fall of 2000 at a now defunct political discussion website that was probably started just to spread the liberal line during the election. After W was inaugurated, they folded their tents.
But I and several other posters there used to dig into the facts and the policy statements and really blew some of those libs away sometimes.
One fellow in Michigan really could find the best facts and most cogent arguments, and I wish he had come over to FreeRepublic as I urged him after that web forum closed down.
