Islamic videos found in false ceiling in Navarra restaurant

"Yes, sir, the speciality of the house is Death-to-the-Zionists-and-Crusaders Paella." From TypicallySpanish.com, with thanks to Twostellas:

Members of the Civil Guard in Tudela, Navarra, are investigating the appearance of videos of Islamic terrorist attacks which have appeared hidden in the false ceiling of a closed restaurant. The premises had been rented in the past by some Muslims. As well as the videos, photocopies of passports and tapes and manuscripts in Arabic have been recovered. One of the terrorists to blow himself up in the Leganés flat explosion as investigators closed in on the Madrid March 11th bombers, is known to have lived for a time in the same town of Tudela.

JI Philippines threat 'serious' From correspondents in Manila, Philippines 22oct05

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "THE Jemaah Islamiah (JI) extremist group in the southern Philippines poses a serious threat to the entire region, a special US envoy said.

US State Department coordinator for counterterrorism Henry Crumpton also encouraged the Philippine government to pass long delayed counter-terrorism legislation. "The threat is very serious if you look at recent events, the intention of enemy forces, their collaborating with affiliates all around the region ... their technical skills especially in bomb making, their tradecraft skills."

His warning came after the Philippine military said JI was still conducting training in the southern Philippine region of Mindanao where various armed Muslim groups are already operating.

"There is an enormous challenge there, just in the geography. Its not just Mindanao but extends to the Sulawesi Sea ... over to Sabah, Malaysia," Mr Crumpton said.

Jemaah Islamiah has been blamed for a string of attacks in the region including the 2002 and 2005 bombings on the Indonesian island of Bali. It is considered the regional partner of the al-Qaeda Muslim extremist network.

Mr Crumpton also warned that countries in the region had to guard against the possible use of biological and chemical weapons by terrorists.

He also said the United States was very supportive of Manila's efforts to forge a peace accord with the main Muslim separatist group, the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), despite frequent reports that MILF commanders were sheltering JI members in their camps in the south."
