Malvo Says Muhammad Planned Bombings (5/23/06)
By MATTHEW BARAKAT Associated Press Writer
ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) -- An emotional Lee Boyd Malvo testified Tuesday against his former partner in the 2002 sniper attacks and said John Allen Muhammad told him "we're going to terrorize these people."
Malvo said Muhammad had outlined a plan for six sniper shootings a day for 30 days several months before the spree that left 10 people dead and three wounded over a three-week span.
The spree was to be followed by a bombing campaign that would target schools, school buses and children's hospitals, Malvo said. "I said 'Why?' He didn't give me an answer," Malvo said.

Thanks, all4one. That brings back some chilling memories.
Googgle (or more correctly Gaggle for what they are doing) is off my family's home computers. Lots of other search engines out there and it's time to gave them a try. Clusty is working very well, as is Dogpile.
What the heck is going on with all these cases?

Vehicle strikes 5 at Covington McDonald's (Metro Atlanta)
Associated Press
Published on: 05/23/06
Police arrested a man they say ran over five people, including three toddlers, with a car in the parking lot of a McDonald's restaurant Tuesday.
Lanny Barnes, 46, is in custody at the Newton County Sheriff's Office and charges against him are pending, Covington Assistant Police Chief Almond Turner said.
"All indications are that he intentionally hit them," Turner said.
Three children ages two to four and two adults from separate families were injured when Barnes drove a green Honda Accord into the parking lot and struck them, police said. Authorities were notified at approximately 12:54 p.m.
The children were airlifted to a hospital in Atlanta and the adults were taken to Newton Medical Center in Covington.
The condition of the victims was not immediately known, but at least one was seriously injured, police said.
Barnes has had mental difficulties, his mother, Mary, told The Associated Press.
"He's been suffering with depression for years," said Mary Barnes, her voice shaking after being told by a reporter what happened. "Lord have mercy."
The crash happened at a McDonald's in Covington, about 30 miles southeast of Atlanta. The McDonald's was closed for the rest of the day, said Bill Hall, area franchise manager.
ARTICLE SNIPPET: ""ALL INDICATIONS ARE THAT HE INTENTIONALLY HIT THEM," TURNER SAID."
I second your question, stillproud2befree, "What the heck is going on with all these cases?"
Yep..they were travelling between NJ...D.C...VA. We have this D.C. Sniper trial...the Lodi, CA trial...the current NY Subway Bomber Trial...the recent Moussaui trial. Plus others recently that I am probably forgetting. But the common denominator in all of these trials is....the willingness, ability, and plans of those who embrace Islam to kill Americans.
Update 4: 9 Hurt As Van Plows Into Church Carnival
Police traced the van to a home in Troy and arrested one man, authorities said. Southfield police said he would be arraigned Tuesday or Wednesday.
Harris said the injured included at least six children, with the youngest being 7 years old. He did not have details on the injuries. Six people were treated at Providence Hospital and released, said hospital spokesman Brian Taylor.
Harris said the driver could face charges up to assault with intent to commit murder.
I appreciate you looking too, all4one.
I looked around in the wee hours and did not find a name, either.
I have a colleague in that area who is trying to get the information on the name - will let everyone know as soon as I have it.
New message from Osama Bin Laden says Moussaoui incompetent
Really? Wow dude - who'd have guessed that!
A new message from Osama Bin Laden in the form of a 4 minute 34 second tape was released on the internet this afternoon by Sahab Media. The message, which takes the form of an audio tape over a still image, includes English subtitles, and was accompanied by a PDF file containing a full English translation.
The message, which claims to be addressed to the American people, explains why Moussaoui wasn't part of the September 11 attacks.
We are currently analyzing the message and will provide more details shortly.

The translation as provided by Sahab Media follows:
A Testimony to the Truth
Shaykh Usama bin Ladin
(May Allah Protect Him)
Rabi' al-Thani 1427AH /May 2006 CE
As-Sahab Media
.................
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, and prayers and peace upon the Prophets and Messengers.
As for what follows:
From Usama bin Muhammad bin Ladin to the American people: peace be upon he who has followed the Guidance.
This is a brief message whose topic is my testimony on behalf of the Muslim prisoners you are holding, and in it I will talk about the truth concerning them, which is something which the Bush administration hates and is hostile to. I begin by talking about the honorable brother Zacarias Moussaoui.
The truth is that he has no connection whatsoever with the events of September 11th, and I am certain of what I say, because I was responsible for entrusting the 19 brothers - Allah have mercy upon them - with those raids, and I did not assign brother Zacarias to be with them on that mission. And his confession that he was assigned to participate in those raids is a false confession which no intelligent person doubts is a result of the pressure put upon him for the past four and a half years. And were this pressure lifted from him for him to return to his normal state, he would state the fact I mentioned.
And among the things that confirm this fact is that the participants in September 11th were two groups: pilots and support teams for each pilot in order to control the aircraft. And since Zacarias Moussaoui was learning how to fly, it follows that he wasn't component #20 from the teams which helped to control the airplanes, as your government previously claimed, and your government knows this fact with certainty. And if Moussaoui was studying aviation to become a pilot of one of the planes, then let him tell us the names of those assigned to help him control the plane.
But he won't be able to tell us their names, for a simple reason: that in fact they don't exist. T
his is from one perspective, and from another perspective, the brother Moussaoui was arrested two weeks before the events, and had he known anything - however little - about the September 11th group, we would have told the brother Commander Mohamed Atta and his brothers - Allah have mercy upon them - to leave America immediately before their affair was exposed. And with this it becomes clear to even the novice investigator - not to mention the seasoned one - that there is no connection between him and the events of September 11th.
And then I call to memory my brothers the prisoners in Guantanamo - may Allah free them all - and I state the fact, about which I also am certain, that all the prisoners of Guantanamo, who were captured in 2001 and the first half of 2002 and who number in the hundreds, have no connection whatsoever to the events of September 11th, and even stranger is that many of them have no connection with al-Qaida in the first place, and even more amazing is that some of them oppose al-Qaida's methodology of calling for war with America.
And this is in addition to the arrest of those who were working in the relief agencies, like Abu Abdul Aziz al-Mutrafi, or those working in the media, like Sami al-Hajj and Taysir Alouni, who was imprisoned at the instigation of the American administration. So the conclusion is that all the prisoners to date have no connection with the events of September 11th and knew nothing about them, with the exception of two of the brothers, may Allah free them all. Bush and his administration are aware of this fact, but they avoid mentioning it, for reasons not hidden to the discerning.
Among these reasons is that it is necessary to create justifications for the massive spending of hundreds of billions on the Defense Department and other agencies in their war against the Mujahideen. My mentioning of these facts isn't out of hope that Bush and his party will treat our brothers fairly in their cases, because that is something no rational person expects, but rather it is meant to expose the oppression, injustice and arbitrariness of your administration in using force and the reactions that result from that.
This is from one perspective, and from another perspective, perhaps there will one day come from the Americans someone who desires justice and fairness, and that is the path to security and safety, if you are interested in it. This is what needed to be said. And may peace be upon he who has followed the Guidance.
I've been using Dogpile for quite a while. Google is verboten on my computer. Haven't tried Clusty yet.
