Wow, that should be interesting.
***New 9/11-Style Plot In The Works?***
Yes, IMO...it is.
How are you Mossad?
You're welcome Oorang (Bangladesh dots...). The media is months behind TM. Every day the links posted here are pretty much at least 24 hours ahead of the MSM. By the time they dot their "i's" and cross their "t's" it's day-old news (or more) to us.
Navy computers reported stolen in New Jersey
(Washington-AP, July 27, 2006) - Two laptop computers with personal data on about 31,000 Navy recruiters and their prospective recruits were stolen in New Jersey in June and July.....(snip)

But only Israel will be given a black eye as (in its typical style) the MSM fails to relate that Hezbollah uses UN and civilian sites for missile launches.
Wowser! Fantastic work - both of you!
According to Interfax-Religion, seven members of the Islamic missionary group Tablighi Jamaat have been detained in Kazakhstan by officers from the department on countering extremism, separatism and terrorism at the Kazakh Interior Ministry. The men were apprehended in Aktobe region.
Two of the seven are Kazakh nationals. The seven came to the Aktobe region from Karaganda region. Acting head of the anti-extremism department, Major Nurtai Nugayev, said that criminal charges have been filed against them.
In northern Kazakhstan in June, members of the group were put on trial for illegal missionary activity.

The thefts, made public today, mark the third time in little more than a month that personal data on Navy personnel has been lost or unintentionally released publicly over the Internet.
Yep.
Has there been any more information about all the hundreds/thousands (?) of disposble cell phones purchased by dark, swarthy types in big lots several months ago? Mostly in Texas, I think. This continues to worry me.
Thank you Oorang.
Our Navy personnel deserve better than that.

Travel Warning
United States Department of State
Bureau of Consular Affairs
Washington, DC 20520
This information is current as of today, Thu Jul 27 2006 19:02:37 GMT-0700.
LEBANON
July 27, 2006
This Travel Warning is being updated in light of the current situation in Lebanon. Due to ongoing security concerns in Lebanon, on July 27, the U.S. Embassy has been granted ordered departure status. Family members and non-emergency American employees have been ordered to depart Lebanon. Essential personnel will remain at the Embassy to facilitate vital political, humanitarian, and consular duties. The Department of State urges American citizens to avoid travel to Lebanon and Americans currently in Lebanon to leave. This supersedes the Travel Warning issued on July 19, 2006.
The Department of State is concerned for the personal safety of American citizens due to the hostilities in Lebanon. In light of the recent events in Lebanon and the resulting escalation in violence, including the closure of Beirut International Airport and the Port of Beirut, family members and non-emergency American employees of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut have been ordered to depart Lebanon. The Department of State urges private American citizens to leave Lebanon as well. The U.S. Embassy is monitoring the situation in Lebanon closely and is assisting American citizens to depart safely.
U.S. citizens who are in Lebanon despite this Travel Warning should exercise heightened caution when traveling in parts of the southern suburbs of Beirut, portions of the Bekaa Valley and areas south of the Litani River in South Lebanon. Hizballah maintains a strong presence in many of these areas, and there is the potential for action by other extremist groups in Tripoli.
Dangers posed by landmines and unexploded ordnance throughout south Lebanon are significant and also exist in other areas where civil war fighting was intense. Travelers should be aware of posted landmine warnings and strictly avoid all areas where landmines and unexploded ordnance may be present.
The Embassy is located in Awkar, near Antelias, Beirut, Lebanon. Public access hours for American citizens are Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. However, American citizens who require emergency services outside of these hours may contact the Embassy by telephone at any time. The telephone numbers are (961-4) 542-600, 543-600, and fax 544-209. American citizens may register with the Embassy online by visiting https://travelregistration.state.gov/ibrs . Information on consular services and registration can also be found at http://lebanon.usembassy.gov/ or by phone at the above telephone numbers between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday local time.
Updated information on travel and security in Lebanon may be obtained from the Department of State by calling 1-888-407-4747 within the United States or, from overseas, 1-202-501-4444. Additional details can be found in the Department of State's Consular Information Sheet for Lebanon, the Worldwide Caution Public Announcement, the Middle East and North Africa Public Announcement and the Travel Publication A Safe Trip Abroad, all of which are available on the Department's Internet site at http://travel.state.gov.
Snip: "The mayor was killed because he initiated the order to demolish our 13-year old mosque in downtown Isabela," specified the beat respondents.
Syria Deputy Religious Endowment Minister calls for jihad
Snip: Syrian Deputy Minister of Religious Endowment Muhammad 'Abd Al-Sattar Calls for Jihad and States Jews "are the Descendants of Apes and Pigs"
Snip: "Up to 16,000 British Muslims either are actively engaged in or support terrorist activity," Melanie Phillips writes in Londonistan, "while up to 3,000 are estimated to have passed through [al-Qa'ida] training camps, with several hundred thought to be primed to attack [the UK]." If you want fear and hysteria, nobody does it better than Phillips. What we are facing, she tells us, is a war of the worlds between Islam and the West. At stake is the very survival of Western civilisation.
Britain, however, remains in a state of denial. A combination of slack immigration controls, misguided multicultural policies and foolish attempts to reach out to moderate Muslims has allowed London to become "a global hub of the Islamic jihad": Londonistan. If Britain is to "halt the drift towards social suicide", it must repeal the Human Rights Act, establish special courts to deal with Islamic terrorists, ban not just groups that advocate terrorism but that promote "Islamisation", prosecute for treason anyone "advocating an Islamic takeover of the West", prevent Muslims from marrying spouses from the Indian subcontinent, and "teach Muslims what being a minority means". And all in the name of liberal democracy.
Muslim group sues US to stop assisting Israel
Snip: A Muslim Arab American civil rights group has filed suit in federal court against the US government to stop its sending missiles to Israel. The group claims that the US sending weapons to assist Israel in its fight against terrorist Hezbollah in Lebanon is placing the approximate 25,000 US citizens currently in that country at risk.
Town of Wayne sued by Muslim Group
Snip: A Muslim group has sued the Town of Wayne, charging that the municipality is discriminating against them by trying to seize its land after stalling its efforts to construct a mosque.

They're 100% American and Pro-Hezbollah
Snip: A neon American flag flashes red, white and blue above La Shish East restaurant on Michigan Avenue. But what happened with some of the hefty profits from the Lebanese fare is anything but patriotic, federal prosecutors allege. Using a double set of books, the owner of La Shish chain of 15 restaurants evaded taxes while funneling some $20 million to the Lebanese militant force Hezbollah in recent years, according to an indictment returned in May.
The restaurateur, Talal Chahine, has fled to Lebanon but denies wrongdoing. The case is one of several across the U.S. that link Americans with smuggling operations of illicit drugs, cigarettes and even baby formula and Viagra to profit Hezbollah--designated by the State Department as a terrorist organization.
With fighting raging in southern Lebanon between Hezbollah and Israeli ground forces, the FBI last week issued a nationwide alert for law enforcement to be vigilant in investigating and profiling Hezbollah sympathizers, according to federal sources.
'The question is: Are they loyal to the U.S. or to this terrorist group Hezbollah?' asked assistant U.S. Atty. Kenneth Chadwell, one of nine federal prosecutors investigating Hezbollah ties in metro Detroit.
Roots in southern Lebanon The scrutiny has deeply angered this Detroit suburb, where nearly 30,000 Lebanese-Americans live in the largest concentration of Americans with roots in southern Lebanon. Here, many people see no contradiction between being 100 percent American yet backing the guerrillas of Hezbollah against Israel.
On the streets of Dearborn, Hezbollah is not seen as a terrorist group but as a heroic resistance force. Residents say the group led the 'freedom fight' in Lebanon during 18 years of Israeli occupation.

Wow, you're right.
What a memory you have!
Thank you for the update, Cindy. The teams I mentioned who were in Beirut recently have arrived home safely. Please continue to pray for the Christians remaining in the area. Within the last week a prominent muslim cleric noted that the local Believers were providing relief even to the Shi'ites who lost family and property. The cleric was amazed and stated, "You [the local ministry team] are different!"
All military personnel deserve better than that. Having their personal information available to who-knows-who on the web is downright frightening. It's something they will have in the back of their minds when they are likely already preoccupied with life and death matters. It's disgraceful and shameful - and those responsible for the loose security that permitted these lapses should be punished and relieved of their job(s).
