Monday, March 20, 2006
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "ALEXANDRIA, Va. — An FBI agent testified Monday his superiors repeatedly ignored his warnings before 9/11 that Zacarias Moussaoui might be a terrorist intent on hijacking an airliner.
Agent Harry Samit, questioned by defense attorney Edward MacMahon in Moussaoui's death penalty trial, said he referred to Moussaoui in the context of terrorism some 70 times in communications with superiors after arresting him Aug. 16, 2001, but failed to get the FBI to conduct an all-out investigation."

"PAKISTAN : FORMER PM NAWAZ SHARIF DID MEET BIN LADEN, SAYS EX-INTELLIGENCE AGENT"
ADN Kronos International ^ | 20 March 2006 | Syed Saleem Shahzad
Posted on 03/20/2006 8:14:15 PM PST by Qaz_W
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Former Pakistani prime minister Nawaz Sharif did meet al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden at least three times in order to get financial help, according to Khalid Khawaja, the former official with Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). In an exclusive interview with Adnkronos International (AKI), Khawaja, once a close friend of Osama bin Laden, rejected the statements by a spokesperson for Sharif's political party, denying that Sharif had sought political cooperation from bin Laden in the past.
"Nawaz Sharif met Osama Bin Laden on at least three occasions and was desperately seeking his financial assistance," Khawaja told AKI in response to recent news reports regarding a possible meeting between the two.
In an interview with a national Urdu daily, Qazi Hussain Ahmad, the leader of the largest Islamic party in Pakistan, the Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), and of the six party religious alliance MMA, said that Nawaz had repeatedly met Osama bin Laden who offered him money to buy the loyalties of parlimentarians in the late 1980s in order to topple the government of then prime minister Benazir Bhutto. Ahmad also said that bin Laden was a big supporter of Nawaz Sharif's bid to be prime minister in 1990.
Soon after the publication of the interview, the information secretary of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Siddiqul Farooq, denied any contact between Nawaz Sharif and Osama bin Laden.
"Osama is above all this politicking," said Khawaja. "He is a great man and will remain great. Even if Nawaz Sharif’s party refuse to admit a contact between Osama and Nawaz, it will not change the facts which were witnessed by many people including Khayyam Qaisar (Nawaz Sharif’s personal staff officer) and myself," Khalid Khawaja maintained.
Khalid Khawaja is a retired squadron leader of the Pakistan Air Force who was an official in Pakistan’s intelligence agency, the ISI, in the mid 1980s. After he wrote a critical letter to General Zia ul-Haq, who ruled Pakistan from 1977 till 1988, in which he labeled Zia as hypocrite, he was removed from the ISI and forced to retire from the airforce.
He then went straight to Afghanistan in 1987 and fought against the Soviets along side with Osama Bin Laden, developing a relationship of firm friendship and trust.
Khalid Khawaja’s name resurfaced when US reporter Daniel Pearl was abducted and subsequently killed. Pearl had come to Pakistan and met Khalid Khawaja in order to investigate the jihadi network of revered sufi, Syed Mubarak Ali Gailani."
" The Homeland Security Department is continuing to investigate this case.***"
Oh, I feel better now. I hope they have figured out why their own security is graded as an "F".
Yes, there seems to be alot of plane crashes these days.

Spanish judge indicts 32 people over alleged attempt to blow up National Court
MADRID, Spain
A Spanish judge has indicted 32 people over an alleged attempt to blow up the National Court, the center of anti-terror investigations, authorities said Tuesday.
The 32 men, mostly Algerians, were charged with membership of a terrorist organization, conspiracy to commit a terrorist act and forgery of public documents, Judge Fernando Grande-Marlaska said in an indictment dated March 13 and made public on Tuesday.
The 32 include Mohamed Achraf, the alleged mastermind of the suspected plot who was extradited last April from Switzerland, where he had been arrested in Oct. 2004 for an unrelated offense.
Spanish authorities suspect Achraf, a Moroccan, of planning to ram a truck loaded with 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds) of explosives into the court in downtown Madrid. Authorities have never made clear when the attack might have been carried out.(snip)

Al-Qaeda video warns of more killings
THE leader of al-Qaeda in Saudi Arabia, who was killed in a raid last month, has delivered a chilling final video testament warning that his group will overthrow the Saudi royal family and threatening more attacks against the kingdom and Americans in the region.
The video, released yesterday, showed Fahd Faraaj al-Juwair shortly before setting off on a terrorist attack wearing a red T-shirt and what appears to be an explosive belt. As he read his will he was seated with a map of Saudi Arabia behind him, with the slogan "Expel the infidels from the Arabian Peninsula".

Al-Qaida Hopes to Overthrow Saudi Regime
(IHC News, 20 March 2006) The world terror group al-Qaida has threatened to overrun the kingdom in Saudi Arabia and warned its leaders to flee.
“If you know what the youth are preparing for you, you will be busy to escape this peninsula,” Fahd Faraaj al-Juwair said in a video sent to The Associated Press and released over the weekend.
Al-Juwair was the leader of al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula and was killed with four other leading terrorists in a 27 February 2006 raid in the Saudi capital Riyadh. The raid followed a failed attack on the Abkaik complex, the largest oil processing facility in the world.
